Dormakaba 91461 605 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Dormakaba 91453 deadlatch work with my 230 or 240 Series lock?
That's exactly what it's built for. The 91453 is the replacement deadlatch for Dormakaba 230 and 240 Series locks, with a 1/2 inch throw and a 2-1/4 inch square corner front. Because it's the genuine Dormakaba part for those two series, the tailpiece engagement and front dimensions match the original assembly, so you replace the latch rather than the whole lock. It is not intended for other lock series.
2) What backset do I order for a Dormakaba 91453 deadlatch, 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch?
Both backsets are made: 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch. Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore hole on the door you're working on and match it. Getting this wrong means the latch case won't line up with the lock body, so confirm the existing prep before you order.
3) Will a 1/2 inch throw deadlatch latch into my existing strike?
A 1/2 inch throw is the standard cylindrical latch projection, so it engages a normal commercial strike lip and ANSI strike pocket without changing the frame prep. Since the 91453 carries the same 1/2 inch throw as the original latch in a 230 or 240 Series lock, the existing strike stays as is.
4) My door has a square corner latch cutout. Is the 91453 front the right shape?
It is. The 91453 comes with a 2-1/4 inch square corner front, which drops into a square-cut mortise in the door edge. If your existing prep has radius (round) corners, a square corner face will sit in the pocket but leave visible gaps at the corners, so match the corner style to the door.
5) Is there a square corner latch that works in a door already prepped for a Kwikset residential lock instead of the Dormakaba 91453?
No. The Dormakaba 91453 deadlatch is built specifically for Dormakaba 230 and 240 Series locks, so its fit is tied to that lock chassis rather than to a generic door prep. If the opening carries a Kwikset residential cylindrical lock, the Kwikset 84290 is a square corner plainlatch with a 2-3/8 inch backset and a UL listing, and the Kwikset 83521 RCAL plain latch is the UL 3 hour latch for the BBL, KNL, CNL and PLL trim families. Those serve Kwikset locks; they are not a replacement inside a 230 or 240 lock body.
6) What is the difference between the Dormakaba 91453 deadlatch and an adjustable drive-in latch like the Deltana DLE23875?
Two different installation styles and two different roles. The 91453 is a deadlatch with a 1/2 inch throw and a 2-1/4 inch square corner front plate, ordered in a fixed 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset and matched to Dormakaba 230 and 240 Series locks. The Deltana DLE23875 is a drive-in latch, meaning no face plate is mortised into the door edge, and it is an entry function latch rated for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. Deltana also lists the DLP23875 as a drive-in latch with an adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset in a passage/privacy function. Pick the 91453 when the lock body is Dormakaba; pick the drive-in when the door edge has a round bore and no plate mortise.
7) Does the pin depth on the Dormakaba 91453 change with the backset?
Yes, and the two are paired. The 2-3/8 inch backset latch comes with a 1 inch pin depth; the 2-3/4 inch backset comes with 1-1/8 inch. You don't choose pin depth separately, it follows the backset you select.
8) Do I have to replace the whole lock if the latch on my Dorma 230 is sticking?
No. The 91453 is sold as a backset replacement so you can restore latching function without pulling and replacing the complete lockset. Keep the existing lock body, trim and strike, and swap the latch in the matching backset and finish.
9) I need a square corner latch part for a pocket door privacy set - will the Dormakaba 91453 work?
No. The 91453 is a deadlatch for Dormakaba 230 and 240 Series cylindrical lock bodies and has a 2-1/4 inch square corner front with a 1/2 inch throw. A tubular pocket door privacy latch takes its own square corner face plate; Emtek lists the 83228 faceplate and screws for a tubular pocket door privacy latch with square corners for that application. Square corners on both parts do not make them interchangeable, because the latch mechanism behind the plate is different.
10) Is the Dormakaba 91453 a deadbolt latch?
No. It is a deadlatch, the spring latch component with a 1/2 inch throw that sits inside a Dormakaba 230 or 240 Series lock and is deadlocking against end pressure. A deadbolt latch is a separate device driven by a thumbturn, key or motor; the Emtek LC9-DBLTCH EMPowered motorized deadbolt latch is an example of that category. Buyers replacing a worn latch in a 230 or 240 lock want the 91453; buyers adding bolt security to the door want a deadbolt.
11) What finishes does the Dormakaba 91453 deadlatch come in?
Five: 605 Bright Brass, 606 Satin Brass, 612 Satin Bronze, 613 Oil Rubbed Bronze, and 630 Satin Stainless. All five are available in either backset, so you can match the latch front to the lock trim on the rest of your openings.
