Dormakaba E5231XSWL-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Dormakaba E-Plex 5200 cylindrical lock fit a 1-3/8 inch door?
Yes. The E-Plex 5200 cylindrical model covers 1-3/8 inch through 2-1/4 inch doors. It arrives pre-assembled for 1-5/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and thin-door and thick-door hardware kits ship in the box, so a 1-3/8 inch interior door or a 2-1/4 inch thick exterior door is handled without ordering anything extra. That range is wider than most standalone keypad locks in this class, which is what makes it a candidate when a building has a mix of older wood doors and newer 1-3/4 inch commercial ones.
2) Which backset do I order for the E-Plex 5200 keypad lever lock, 2-3/8 or 2-3/4?
Order to match the hole already bored in the door: the E-Plex 5200 cylindrical comes in a 2-3/8 inch backset and a 2-3/4 inch backset, and there is a third choice, 2-3/4 inch backset with a 3/4 inch throw latch. Those two are the usual backsets on North American doors, so measure from the door edge to the center of the bore before ordering. The standard latch throw is 1/2 inch; step up to the 3/4 inch throw version if the existing strike or a slightly out-of-plumb frame needs the extra reach to stay latched.
3) Can I keep my existing Best, Schlage or Sargent cores when I put in an E-Plex 5200?
Yes, and that is the main reason facilities standardize on it. The E-Plex 5200 key override is ordered by cylinder family: B for SFIC Best and equivalents in 6 or 7 pin, C for Corbin Russwin LFIC, M for Medeco/ASSA/Yale/Abloy LFIC in 5 or 6 pin, R for Sargent LFIC, and S for Schlage LFIC. On all five of those the core is not included, so you pull your existing core and drop it in, keeping the master key system intact. If there is no system to match, XK ships with a Kaba cylinder in the Kaba 90 keyway and XS ships with a Kaba cylinder in the Schlage C keyway, both key-in-lever and both included.
4) Do I have to specify handing on the E-Plex 5200 pushbutton lock?
No. The 5200 is non-handed. It ships pre-assembled for a left-hand door and the hand is changed in the field, so one part number covers left and right openings. For a property manager buying a dozen at once that means no split order and no wrong-hand returns.
5) Can an E-Plex 5200 keypad lock go on a fire-rated door?
Yes, on an A-labeled opening. The cylindrical version carries a 3-hour UL/ULC fire door rating and the latch is a fire-rated cylindrical latch. It is also ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 certified under A156.25, A156.2, A156.13 and A156.3, and it meets ADA for accessible operation, which is the combination an institutional spec usually calls for on a stairwell or corridor door.
6) Will the E-Plex 5200 fit a narrow stile aluminum storefront door?
No. The 5200 needs a minimum 5 inch stile, so it is a wide stile lock and it will not go on a narrow stile aluminum glass door. On a storefront opening the usual route is a rim exit device with electronic trim rather than a bored cylindrical lock. If your stile measures 5 inches or more, the cylindrical lock works.
7) Does the E-Plex 5200 need wiring run to the door?
No wiring at all. The E-Plex 5200 is a standalone battery lock using dormakaba's LectroBolt, so nothing is run to or through the door and there are no door loops or pinched wires to fail later. That is the practical difference against a hardwired lock like the SDC Electra 7200 Series, which is a solenoid controlled cylindrical lock running on 12/24VDC and needs power at the opening. Pick the 5200 when you want access control on a door with no power nearby; pick a wired solenoid lock when it has to tie into a live access control panel.
8) What is a comparable Grade 1 electronic pushbutton cylindrical lock to the E-Plex 5200 if I need audit trail capability?
The Alarm Lock Trilogy T3 DL3075 is a Grade 1 electronic cylindrical lock with audit trail and keypad access, from the DL3200 Series. The Dormakaba E-Plex 5200 is also a Grade 1 cylindrical lever lock with keypad entry, holding up to 3,000 access codes and 30,000 audit events, and is offered with SFIC, LFIC and key-in-lever override options. The E-Plex 5200 is programmed through E-Plex Enterprise Software, which is not included.
9) The door I am fitting is 2-1/4 inch thick. Which electronic cylindrical lock will fit?
The Dormakaba E-Plex 5200 cylindrical model covers a door thickness range of 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, pre-assembled for 1-5/8 inch to 2 inch doors with hardware kits included for thin and thick doors. Among comparable electronic cylindrical locks, the Alarm Lock Trilogy T2 DL2700 covers 1-5/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch, the TownSteel XCE-2000 covers 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch, and the SDC E75 covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/8 inch. For a 2-1/4 inch door the E-Plex 5200 is the one whose range reaches that thickness.
10) I need a classroom intruder function lock, not a pushbutton entry lock. What should I order instead?
The Dormakaba E-Plex 5200 is built for exterior access by PIN with free egress, and it operates in PIN access, passage and lockout modes. For an inside-the-room lockdown function, the TownSteel XCE-9000 is a Grade 1 electronic classroom intruder cylindrical lockset with keypad covering doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch, and the TownSteel FCE-4000 is an RFID electronic intruder classroom cylindrical lockset, Grade 1, listed for 1-3/4 inch doors.
11) I need coded entry on both sides of the door. What handles that?
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 Dormakaba E-Plex 5200 provides exterior access by combination while allowing free egress from the inside, and holds up to 3,000 access codes across five authority levels.
12) What Grade 1 keypad lever lock is the closest alternative to the Dormakaba E-Plex 5200 on a standard commercial opening?
The Accentra nexTouch NTB613 is a Grade 1 cylindrical keypad lock with pushbutton entry from the nexTouch Series, and the TownSteel XCE-2000 is a Grade 1 heavy duty electronic cylindrical lockset with keypad in classroom function for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. The Dormakaba E-Plex 5200 is a Grade 1 cylindrical lever lock with vandal resistant metal pushbuttons, offered in five finishes from Bright Brass 605 through Dark Bronze 744 with brass accents, and it ships with the lock assembly, installation manual, full scale template and required hardware.
13) How many user codes and how much audit history does the E-Plex 5200 hold?
Up to 3,000 access codes and 30,000 audit events. Code length is set anywhere from 4 to 8 digits, and there are five authority levels, including service codes for one-time access or come-and-go access lasting 1 to 24 hours. That capacity is what separates it from smaller standalone locks such as the Alarm Lock Trilogy T2 DL2700, which holds 100 user codes. For a multi-tenant building or a campus where cleaning crews and trades rotate through, the 3,000 code ceiling and the audit trail are the reason to spend up.
14) Can the E-Plex 5200 be left unlocked during business hours and re-lock itself at night?
Yes. The lock runs in PIN access, passage, or lockout mode. Passage can be toggled on and off at the keypad or pre-programmed to re-lock automatically after a set number of hours, so a front office door stays free during the day without anyone coming back to lock it. Beyond that you can load up to 16 access schedules and 32 holiday or vacation blocks into the lock itself. Lockout mode shuts codes out entirely. Programming is done through E-Plex Enterprise software, which is not included, though scheduling lives in the lock once loaded.
15) What is the difference between E-Plex 5200 model 3 and model 5?
Model 3 is the plain cylindrical lock. Model 5 is the cylindrical lock with privacy, which adds an occupant-controlled privacy function for restrooms, exam rooms, dorm rooms and single-occupancy offices. Both are keypad entry with free egress from the inside. If the door is a corridor, storeroom or entry, take model 3; if someone needs to secure the room from inside, take model 5.
16) Is the E-Plex 5200 pushbutton lock rated for an exterior door in cold weather?
Yes, it is approved indoor and outdoor. The front housing is rated from -31 F to 151 F and the rear housing from -31 F to 130 F, so a gate house, exterior stair door or unheated storage building is within spec. The pushbuttons are metal and vandal resistant, and the housings are solid cast with solid cast zinc levers, which is the build you want on a door that sees weather and abuse.
17) What comes in the box with an E-Plex 5200 cylindrical lock, and what do I still need to buy?
The carton has the lock assembly, the installation manual, a full scale template, and the required mounting hardware, including the thin and thick door kits. Two things are not in it. If you ordered a B, C, M, R or S key override, the core is not included and you supply it from your own keying system. And E-Plex Enterprise software, used to program doors and users, is separate. The XK and XS versions do include a Kaba cylinder, so those need no core.
18) What is a good alternative to the E-Plex 5200 if I only need a handful of codes on one door?
For a single door with a short user list, the Alarm Lock Trilogy T2 DL2700 is a Grade 1 standalone cylindrical keypad lock with 100 user codes and IC/SFIC compatibility, and the Alarm Lock DL5200 is a double-sided keypad version, also 100 users, battery operated. Both fit doors 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch, a narrower window than the E-Plex 5200's 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch. The E-Plex earns its keep when you need 3,000 codes, a 30,000 event audit trail and scheduling; on a one-door job with a fixed crew, that management layer is not doing anything for you.
19) I need a keypad privacy lock for a restroom. Is the E-Plex 5200 privacy model the right pick, or is there something simpler?
The E-Plex 5200 model 5 is the cylindrical lock with privacy and it fits 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch doors, which is the widest thickness range among the keypad privacy options. Simpler alternatives: the Schlage CO-100-CY-40-KP is a Grade 1 heavy duty standalone electronic cylindrical lock in privacy function, but it is a single door thickness at 1-3/4 inch, and the Alarm Lock Trilogy 4100 is Grade 1 privacy for 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors. If the restroom does not need codes at all, the Cal-Royal CAL20 is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty mechanical privacy lock covering 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors.
20) I want mobile or credential access instead of a keypad PIN. What should I look at instead of the E-Plex 5200?
The E-Plex 5200 is PIN entry only, with a mechanical key override. If you want credentials or phone-based access on a cylindrical lock, look at the Schlage NDEB, a Grade 1 ENGAGE Series wireless lock with a 2.4 GHz Bluetooth Low Energy reader for doors 1-5/8 to 2 inch, or the Schlage XE360M, a Grade 1 wireless tubular lock with a smart mobile reader in classroom/storeroom function at 1-3/4 inch. For RFID cards, the TownSteel FCE-2000 Series is a Grade 1 standalone motorized cylindrical lockset with RFID at 1-3/4 inch. The tradeoff is that those need credentials issued and managed; a PIN lock needs nothing handed out.
21) Does the E-Plex 5200 let people out without entering a code?
Yes. Entry from the outside is by combination, and egress from the inside is always free, so nobody is ever coding their way out. That is what allows it on a labeled corridor or stairwell door, alongside the 3-hour UL/ULC fire rating and ADA compliance. Lockout mode blocks entry codes; it does not affect getting out.
22) If I do not need codes or audit trail, what is a simpler keyless lock than the E-Plex 5200?
The Lockey 1600 is a heavy duty mechanical keyless knob lock with adjustable backset, and the Lockey 2830 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless knob lock with an auto-locking passage function; both cover doors 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch. Those are mechanical pushbutton units with no code management or event log. The Dormakaba E-Plex 5200 is an electronic lever lock holding up to 3,000 access codes and 30,000 audit events, with 16 access schedules and 32 holiday or vacation blocks, programmed through E-Plex Enterprise Software.
23) Is a Kwikset SmartCode lever an equivalent to the Dormakaba E-Plex 5200?
They are different classes of lock. The Kwikset 912TNL ZW500 SmartCode Tustin lever uses Z-Wave technology in a keyed one side function for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Dormakaba E-Plex 5200 is a commercial ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 certified cylindrical lever lock with a 3-hour UL/ULC fire rating for A labeled doors, vandal resistant metal pushbuttons, and indoor/outdoor approval with a front housing range of -31 F to 151 F.
24) What looks like a substitute for an E-Plex 5200 but will not give me coded access?
Mechanical lever and knob locksets share the same cylindrical prep but have no keypad. The Marks USA 195RAB is a Grade 1 Survivor Series entry clutched lever lockset, less core; the Marks USA 195N is a Grade 1 Survivor Series passage lever, ADA compliant; the Cal-Royal CAL20 is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty privacy lock for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch; and the Stanley QCL200 is a keyed different cylindrical lock in SC keyway with a 118F ANSI 1-1/8 inch by 2-3/4 inch strike. Access on all of those is by key or thumbturn. The Dormakaba E-Plex 5200 grants access by PIN code with key override available.
25) The E-Plex 5200 is more lock than we need for an interior office door. What is a lighter duty alternative?
The Orca Hardware OCL250 is a Grade 2 medium duty entrance cylindrical lockset, the OCL240 is a medium duty privacy cylindrical lockset, and the OCL210 is a Grade 2 medium duty passage cylindrical lockset. The Marks USA 175RF SFIC is a Grade 2 storeroom clutched lever lockset, small format IC less core, with a 2-3/4 inch backset and ANSI strike. The Dormakaba E-Plex 5200 is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty electronic lever lock with 2-3/4 inch and 2-3/8 inch backset options.
26) Which electronic cylindrical lock offers a 2-3/8 inch backset for a residential-width bore?
The Dormakaba E-Plex 5200 is ordered in 2-3/4 inch backset, 2-3/4 inch backset with 3/4 inch throw, or 2-3/8 inch backset, and it is non-handed, pre-assembled for left-hand doors and changed in the field. Among comparable keyless locks, the Lockey 1600 is a heavy duty mechanical keyless knob lock with adjustable backset. The Marks USA 110AB is a Grade 2 entry knob lockset with a 2-3/8 inch backset, though it is a keyed mechanical knob rather than a keypad lock.
27) What finishes does the E-Plex 5200 come in, and which one matches satin chrome hardware?
626 Satin Chrome is the match for standard commercial 626 hardware, housing and lever both. The other choices are 605 Bright Brass, 606 Satin Brass, 625 Bright Chrome, and 744 Dark Bronze with brass accents. There is also a black 676 housing configuration with satin chrome levers and accents. For a property manager matching existing openings, 626 is the safe pick since it is the most common finish on commercial levers.
28) Someone keeps punching in random codes on our keypad lock. Does the E-Plex 5200 do anything about that?
It has an anti-tamper lockout, adjustable to trip after 3 to 9 invalid attempts, with a lockout period you set from 0 to 90 seconds. Code length is adjustable from 4 to 8 digits, so going to 6 or 8 digits on an exposed exterior door raises the guessing cost considerably. Re-lock time after a valid entry is adjustable from 2 to 20 seconds. The buttons themselves are metal and vandal resistant rather than a membrane pad, which matters on a door taking real abuse.
