Dormakaba E5055-XS-WL-626D-41 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will an E-Plex 5000 keypad lock fit a narrow aluminum storefront stile?
No. The E-Plex 5000 cylindrical lock is a wide stile lockset with a 5 inch minimum stile recommended, so a typical narrow stile aluminum storefront door will not take it. On a glass front opening with a narrow stile, the E-Plex exit trim configuration mounted to a rim exit device is the way to use the same keypad credential set, since backset there is determined by the exit device rather than the door stile.
2) What backset do I order for a Dormakaba E-Plex 5000 pushbutton lever lock?
Ordering choices on the E-Plex 5000 cylindrical are 2-3/8 inch, 2-3/4 inch, and a 2-3/4 inch backset with the heavier 3/4 inch latch throw. The 2-3/4 inch backset is the usual commercial prep; 2-3/8 inch is the common residential and light interior prep. Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore before you pick, because the backset is set by the latch you order, not adjustable on the fly.
3) Will this Dormakaba electronic lock latch into the strike already in my frame, or do I need a deeper one?
Standard latch throw on the E-Plex 5000 cylindrical is 1/2 inch, which drops into an ordinary ANSI strike prep without a frame change. If your frame is out of plumb, the gap is wide, or the opening sees hard use, order the 2-3/4 inch backset version with the 3/4 inch throw instead. That deeper throw needs strike pocket depth to accept it, so check the existing strike before you specify it.
4) Does the E-Plex 5000 have to be ordered left hand or right hand?
Handing is not an ordering decision on the E-Plex 5000 cylindrical. The lock is non-handed and arrives pre-assembled for a left hand door; changing it to right hand is done in the field during installation. If you are ordering for a building with mixed swings, one part number covers every opening.
5) Can I put a Dormakaba E-Plex keypad lock on a labeled fire door?
Yes. The cylindrical version uses a latch carrying a three hour UL and ULC fire door rating for A labeled doors, and the lock is ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 certified under A156.25, A156.2, A156.13 and A156.3. It also meets the Americans with Disabilities Act accessibility standard, which is what the lever handle is there for. That combination is what an institutional or MRO spec usually calls for on a rated corridor or stair door.
6) Can I get a Dormakaba E-Plex 5000 keyed to the cores we already use in the building?
Key override is a build option, so you pick the cylinder format to match what your facility already keys. Choices are SFIC for Best and equivalents in 6 or 7 pin, large format IC for Corbin Russwin, for Medeco/ASSA/Yale/Abloy in 5 or 6 pin, for Sargent, or for Schlage. All of those interchangeable core options ship less core, so your locksmith supplies cores from your existing system. If you are not keying into an existing system, order key-in-lever with a Kaba cylinder included, either Kaba 90 keyway or Schlage C keyway.
7) What is a simpler alternative to an E-Plex 5051 electronic pushbutton lock for a bathroom or bedroom door that does not need codes?
If the door only needs to lock from the inside and nobody is managing user codes, a mechanical privacy lockset does the same job with no electronics and no batteries. The Cal-Royal CAL20 is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty privacy lock in the Calypso Series covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Orca Hardware OCL240 is a Grade 2 medium duty privacy cylindrical lockset. The E-Plex 5051 earns its place where you want up to 100 access codes, an audit trail, and passage toggling from a keypad rather than a thumbturn.
8) Which electronic cylindrical lock should I use instead of the E-Plex 5051 if I need credential readers or wireless management instead of a keypad?
The E-Plex 5051 grants access by PIN entered on vandal resistant metal pushbuttons and is programmed at the keypad or with optional Excel-based software. If you want credentials or a networked front end instead, the Schlage NDEB is a Grade 1 ENGAGE Series wireless cylindrical lock using 2.4 GHz Bluetooth Low Energy with storeroom, office, privacy, and apartment functions, and the TownSteel FCE-2000 is a Grade 1 standalone motorized cylindrical lockset with RFID technology in classroom function. Both are 1-3/4 inch style door ranges - NDEB spans 1-5/8 inch to 2 inch and the FCE-2000 is listed at 1-3/4 inch - while the E-Plex 5051 spans 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch.
9) Which keypad lock works on a 1-3/8 inch door if the Alarm Lock Trilogy will not fit?
The Alarm Lock Trilogy DL2700 and the Trilogy 4100 privacy model are both specified for doors 1-5/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch thick, so a 1-3/8 inch leaf is outside their range. The Dormakaba E-Plex 5051 covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, installs on wood or metal with a four bolt installation and no wiring through the door, and offers 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backsets. That makes it the keypad option for thin interior wood doors as well as thick fire-rated leaves.
10) Can I swap an E-Plex 5051 for an SDC Electra 7200 on an access controlled opening?
They are not interchangeable. The SDC Electra 7200 Series is a solenoid controlled cylindrical lock running on dual voltage 12/24VDC, which means power has to reach the lock and it is driven by an access control system. The E-Plex 5051 is standalone: the LectroBolt design eliminates wiring to or through the door, and access is granted by PIN at the lock with codes programmed at the keypad. If the opening already has a card system and power transfer, the Electra 7200 is the fitting part; if you are avoiding a wire run entirely, the E-Plex is. SDC also offers the battery-powered E75 Series electronic cylindrical lockset with keypad access, specified for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/8 inch doors.
11) Which lock do I use instead of an E-Plex 5051 on a classroom door that needs lockdown from inside the room?
Classroom intruder function is a different product. The TownSteel XCE-9000 Series is an electronic classroom intruder cylindrical lockset with a keypad, Grade 1 heavy duty, for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, and the FCE-4000 Series is the RFID electronic intruder classroom version at 1-3/4 inch. The E-Plex 5051 operates in PIN access, lockout, and passage modes, with passage toggled on or off or set to relock after 1 to 24 hours - it controls who gets in by code, but it is not an intruder-function classroom lock.
12) Which electronic cylindrical lock accepts an existing interchangeable core keyway besides the BEST 9KZ?
The BEST 9KZ EZ Series is an electronic keypad cylindrical lock with key override, and the Alarm Lock Trilogy DL2700 is a Grade 1 standalone electronic cylindrical entrance lock with a digital keypad, 100 user codes, and IC/SFIC compatibility. The E-Plex 5051 gives you a wider choice of override: SFIC for Best and equivalents in 6 or 7-pin, LFIC for Corbin Russwin, Medeco/ASSA/Yale/Abloy, Sargent, or Schlage, all less core, plus key-in-lever versions with a Kaba cylinder supplied in either Kaba 90 or Schlage C keyway. That lets the lock join an existing masterkey system without rekeying the building.
13) How many user codes does the E-Plex 5000 hold and can I manage it without a computer?
The E-Plex 5000 holds up to 100 access codes programmed straight at the keypad, no computer or wiring required. Adding the optional Excel based software raises capacity to 300 codes and is also what lets you read the audit trail, which stores the most recent 9,000 lock events including use of the mechanical key override. Codes can be set to 4 through 8 digits, anti-tamper lockout triggers at an adjustable 3 to 9 invalid attempts with a 0 to 90 second penalty, and relock time is adjustable from 2 to 20 seconds.
14) Can this keypad lock be left unlocked during business hours and relock itself at night?
Passage mode on the E-Plex 5000 can be toggled on and off at the keypad, or pre-programmed to relock automatically after a set number of hours, anywhere from 1 to 24. There is also a lockout mode for shutting the opening down entirely. Users are assigned authority levels, so a manager can run day to day code changes while service codes cover a contractor coming in for a single day or a single event, and a maintenance level code lets someone pull data from the lock without being granted entry.
15) Will a battery keypad lock hold up outdoors in a cold climate?
The E-Plex 5000 is approved for indoor and outdoor use. Front housing operating range is -31 F to 151 F and the rear housing is -31 F to 130 F, so an exterior gate house or unheated warehouse entry is within spec. The construction is extra heavy duty with solid cast housings and solid cast levers, and the pushbuttons are vandal resistant metal rather than rubber, which is what usually fails first on an exposed keypad.
16) What comes in the box with a Dormakaba E-Plex 5000, and what do I still have to buy?
The carton has the lock assembly, the installation manual, a full scale template, and the mounting hardware needed to hang it. What is not in the box: the core, if you ordered any of the interchangeable core key override options, since all of those ship less core. The Excel based management software is optional and separate, and you need it if you want 300 codes instead of 100 or want to read the audit trail. If you are doing the exit trim configuration instead of cylindrical, the exit device and its mounting hardware are also not included.
17) What else could I buy instead of a Dormakaba E-Plex 5000 standalone keypad lock?
Closest like for like in a Grade 1 standalone keypad cylindrical is the Alarm Lock Trilogy T2 DL2700, also 100 user codes with SFIC compatibility, though it is built for 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors, a much narrower thickness window than the E-Plex 5000's 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches. Other Grade 1 keypad options are the TownSteel XCE-2000 at 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors and the Schlage CO-100, which is 1-3/4 inch only. If your thicker doors are the constraint, the E-Plex range is the widest of that group. Where you want credentials rather than PINs, the TownSteel FCE-2000 is RFID and the Schlage NDEB is Bluetooth mobile enabled.
18) I just need a bed and bath privacy lever, not a code lock. What should I get instead?
A pushbutton code lock is the wrong tool for a simple privacy opening. For a Grade 1 privacy lever with no electronics, the Cal-Royal CAL20 Calypso is an extra heavy duty privacy lockset covering 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, and the Orca OCL240 is a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical for lighter duty interior work. If you want privacy function with a keypad for a staff restroom or a dorm, the Alarm Lock Trilogy 4100 is Grade 1 with a privacy function and covers 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors.
19) Do I have to run power or wire to the door for a Dormakaba E-Plex keypad lock?
No wiring at all. The E-Plex 5000 is a standalone lock, and the LectroBolt connection carries power and signal between the two housings through the mounting bolts, so nothing runs through the door and there are no wires to pinch when you tighten it up. Installation is a four bolt job on wood or metal doors. If you specifically need a wired lock tied to an access control panel, the SDC Electra 7200 is a solenoid controlled cylindrical running 12 or 24 VDC on 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors.
20) Is the Kwikset SmartCode 912TNL an alternative to the Dormakaba E-Plex 5051 for a commercial building?
They are built for different settings. The Kwikset 912TNL ZW500 SmartCode is an electronic Tustin lever with Z-Wave technology in keyed one side function, covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The E-Plex 5051 is a commercial lockset, ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 certified, with an extra heavy-duty cylindrical chassis, solid cast housings and levers, a three-hour UL/ULC fire door rating for A labeled doors, and indoor/outdoor approval down to -31 degrees F. For a multi-family unit door on a home automation hub the Kwikset is the fit; for a rated corridor or exterior opening in a commercial facility the E-Plex is.
21) What is the difference between the Lockey 2830 mechanical pushbutton lock and the Dormakaba E-Plex 5051?
Both open on pushbuttons, but only one keeps records. The Lockey 2830 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless knob lock with an auto-locking passage function for 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Lockey 1600 is a heavy duty mechanical keyless knob lock with adjustable backset over the same thickness range - no batteries, no audit. The E-Plex 5051 is electronic: up to 100 access codes upgradable to 300 with optional software, the most recent 9,000 lock events held in memory including mechanical key override use, and authority levels from master down to service and maintenance. Note also that the Lockey units are knob locks while the E-Plex is a lever, which matters where ADA is being met.
22) Does a Marks USA 195RAB or Stanley QCL150 replace an E-Plex 5051?
No - those are mechanical keyed locksets, not keypad locks. The Marks USA 195RAB is a Grade 1 Survivor Series entry clutched lever lockset supplied less core, the 195N is a Grade 1 passage lever that is ADA compliant, and the Stanley QCL150 is an entry lever in the QCL100 Series with a 2-3/4 inch backset latch, less cylinder. Any of them will fill the same bored prep with a lever, but entry is by key or free, not by code. The E-Plex 5051 is where you want combination entry with free egress and no keys to issue, control, or collect.
23) Is the CENTRIOS CEB100 Bluetooth lock a substitute for a Dormakaba E-Plex 5051?
They solve access differently. The CENTRIOS CEB100 is a Grade 1 smart Bluetooth cylindrical lock in privacy function, so entry depends on a phone in range. The E-Plex 5051 grants access by combination on a keypad with vandal resistant metal pushbuttons, code length adjustable from 4 to 8 digits, and an anti-tamper lockout from 3 to 9 invalid attempts. Where a service tech or a temporary user needs to get in without an app, the code-based E-Plex covers it; the E-Plex also adds a service authority level for single event or single day access programmed in advance.
24) What is a lower cost lever to pair on the non-locking doors when standardizing a corridor around E-Plex 5051 locks?
Passage and dummy trim on the doors that do not need access control does not have to match the electronic lock's chassis grade. The Marks USA 195N is a Grade 1 Survivor Series passage lever that is ADA compliant, the Orca OCL210 is a Grade 2 medium duty passage cylindrical lockset, and the Orca OCL2170 is a Grade 2 half dummy lever for inactive leaves. The E-Plex 5051 stays on the openings that need codes, and it is offered in Bright Brass 605, Satin Brass 606, Bright Chrome 625, Satin Chrome 626, and 744 Dark Bronze with brass accents so the finish can be carried across the run.
25) How does the Accentra nexTouch NTB613 compare with the Dormakaba E-Plex 5051 for a keypad lever lock?
The Accentra nexTouch NTB613 is a Grade 1 cylindrical keypad lock with pushbutton entry in the nexTouch Series, so it addresses the same opening. The E-Plex 5051 is also Grade 1 with a lever and a conventional cylinder as standard, and it is non-handed, pre-assembled for left-hand doors and changed in the field, with a recommended minimum stile of 5 inches. On narrow stile aluminum entrances, check that stile dimension before committing either lock.
26) Which keypad lock covers both sides of the door if the E-Plex 5051 is single sided?
For an opening that needs code entry from both faces, the Alarm Lock DL5200 is a double-sided electronic cylindrical lock with 100 user capacity and battery operation, for doors 1-5/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch. The E-Plex 5051 provides exterior access by combination while allowing free egress from the inside, which is the arrangement you want when the interior side must always release without a code.
27) What finishes does the Dormakaba E-Plex 5000 come in so it matches the rest of my door hardware?
Five finishes: 626 satin chrome, 625 bright chrome, 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, and 744 dark bronze with brass accents. Satin chrome 626 is the one that matches most commercial lever hardware already hanging in an office or institutional building. Dark bronze 744 is the pick when the openings are already oil rubbed or dark bronze trim.
