Dormakaba QCL1-20-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Dormakaba QCL100 lock fit a 1-3/8 inch door, or does it need a 1-3/4 inch door?
Either works. The QCL100 series covers 1-3/8 inch (35mm) through 2 inch (51mm) doors as standard, so it drops onto older 1-3/8 inch interior doors and standard 1-3/4 inch commercial doors without an extension kit. That range is wider on the thin end than several electronic cylindrical locks, which is worth knowing if you have a mix of door thicknesses in one building.
2) What door prep does a QCL100 cylindrical lock need, and will it drop into an existing bored door?
Standard 161 prep. The QCL100 uses a 2-1/8 inch (54mm) diameter cross bore, with a 2-3/4 inch (70mm) square backset as standard and 2-3/8 inch (60mm) or 5 inch (127mm) available. The latch faceplate is 1-1/8 inch x 2-1/4 inch. If your existing doors were bored for a standard cylindrical lockset, the hole pattern is the same one, so you are changing hardware, not the door.
3) Which backset latch do I order for a QCL100 lock, S4 or S8?
S4 is the square 2-3/4 inch latch and S8 is the square 2-3/8 inch. Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore: 2-3/4 inches on most commercial openings, 2-3/8 on lighter or residential-width doors. The latch choice is a required selection on the order along with the lever design, so getting it wrong means the lock will not line up with the bore you already have.
4) Will the QCL100 latch into the strike that is already in my frame?
The QCL100 ships standard with an ANSI strike measuring 1-1/4 inch (32mm) x 4-7/8 inch (124mm), the common commercial frame cutout, and the standard latch throw is 1/2 inch (12.7mm) on both the keyed exterior steel bolt and the interior spring latch. If your frame already has an ANSI 4-7/8 inch strike prep, the new lock lands in it. A smaller T-strike prep will need the strike opening changed or a different strike specified.
5) Do I need the 3/4 inch throw latch on a QCL100 for a fire-rated pair of doors?
Yes. The 3/4 inch throw latch is the option to specify for fire-rated double door applications, and it is also what is required for hurricane compliance. On a single door the standard 1/2 inch throw is what ships. This is an order-form decision, not a field change, so call it out when you place the order.
6) Is the Dormakaba QCL100 fire rated and ADA compliant for a commercial building?
Both. The QCL100 is UL/cUL listed for 3 hours on "A" label single door applications up to 4 feet by 8 feet, rated to UL10C/UBC 7-2 (1997) positive pressure and UL10B pressure, and it meets ANSI A117.1 accessibility code for ADA. It is also certified ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Grade 1, and it carries the California State Reference Code listing plus a Miami-Dade N.O.A. for hurricane compliant applications.
7) Which QCL100 function do I pick for a classroom, an office, or a storeroom door?
The QCL100 comes in Classroom, Classroom Security, Classroom Security SFIC, Storeroom, Entry/Office, Corridor, Communicating, Passage, Privacy, Single/Half Dummy, and the 70-X, 92-X and 94-X models. For a teaching space where staff lock down from inside the room, Classroom Security is the function; a plain Classroom function keys from the corridor side only. Storeroom keeps the outside lever locked at all times and is the usual pick for mechanical and utility rooms. Entry/Office lets staff leave the lever unlocked during business hours. Passage and Privacy are the non-keyed functions for corridors and restrooms.
8) I want to keep my existing small format interchangeable cores. What are my options besides the Dormakaba QCL100?
The QCL100 can be ordered with an SFIC option so existing small format cores carry straight over, including a classroom security SFIC model. Among comparables, the Marks USA 175RF SFIC is a Grade 2 storeroom clutched lever lockset supplied small format IC less core with a 2-3/4 inch backset and ANSI strike, and the Marks USA 195RAB is a Grade 1 Survivor Series entry clutched lever less core. The Alarm Lock DL2700 is IC/SFIC compatible on the electronic side. The QCL100 and the 195RAB are the Grade 1 choices in that group.
9) What is the closest equivalent to a Dormakaba QCL100 cylindrical lock from another Stanley or Dormakaba series?
The Stanley Security QCL200 cylindrical lock is the nearest sibling, supplied the same way as the QCL100 in keyed different with an SC keyway and a 118F ANSI 1-1/8 inch by 2-3/4 inch strike. The QCL100 is a Grade 1 heavy-duty cylindrical lock covering functions from storeroom and classroom through passage, privacy and single/half dummy, with Sierra, Summit and Slate lever designs. A buyer standardizing a building on one keyway can carry either series on the same SC keying scheme and the same ANSI strike prep.
10) Is the Stanley QCL150 entry lever the same lock as the Dormakaba QCL100?
They are not the same. The Stanley QCL150 Grade 1 entry lever is listed as Grade 2 with an entrance function, a Sierra bent lever with rose, less cylinder, a square 2-3/4 inch backset latch and a 4-7/8 inch by 1-1/4 inch ASA strike. The QCL100 is ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Grade 1 certified and ships across the full function range, and its Sierra lever is one of three designs alongside Summit and Slate. If the door schedule calls for a Grade 1 entry lever, the QCL150 does not answer it.
11) I need keypad access instead of a keyed cylindrical lock. What replaces a Dormakaba QCL100?
Several Grade 1 standalone electronic cylindrical locks fill the same door prep. The Alarm Lock Trilogy T2 DL2700 is a Grade 1 standalone electronic cylindrical lock with a digital keypad, 100 user codes and IC/SFIC compatibility, for doors 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inches thick. The TownSteel XCE-2000 is a Grade 1 heavy duty electronic cylindrical lockset with keypad in a classroom function for doors 1-3/4 to 2 inches. The QCL100 is a mechanical Grade 1 lock for doors 1-3/8 to 2 inches with electrification options available, so the door thickness on the opening decides which of the electronic models fits.
12) For a school classroom door where staff need to lock down from inside, does a Dormakaba QCL100 work or do I need something else?
The QCL100 carries classroom and classroom security functions, including a classroom security SFIC version, and is Grade 1 certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.2. If the requirement is an electronic intruder function with credentials, the TownSteel XCE-9000 is a Grade 1 heavy duty electronic classroom intruder cylindrical lockset with keypad for doors 1-3/4 to 2 inches, and the TownSteel FCE-4000 is an RFID electronic intruder classroom lockset. The QCL100 answers the mechanical lockdown; the TownSteel models add credential and keypad control.
13) My doors are 1-3/8 inches thick. Which cylindrical locks fit besides the Dormakaba QCL100?
The QCL100 covers a standard door thickness of 1-3/8 inches to 2 inches. Among comparable Grade 1 locks, the Cal-Royal CAL20 privacy lock and CAL30 passage lock both list 1-3/8 to 2 inches. The Lockey 1600 keyless knob lock and Lockey 2830 pushbutton keyless knob lock go from 1-1/8 to 2 inches. Several electronic models start higher: the Alarm Lock DL2700 begins at 1-5/8 inches and the Schlage CO-100 and TownSteel FCE-2000 are listed for 1-3/4 inch doors, so a 1-3/8 inch door rules those out.
14) I need a fire-rated Grade 1 cylindrical lock for a labeled opening. How does the Dormakaba QCL100 compare to the alternatives?
The QCL100 is UL/cUL listed for 3 hour A label single door applications at 4 feet by 8 feet, UL10C/UBC 7-2 positive pressure rated and UL10B pressure rated, with fire-rated latches and a 3/4 inch throw option for fire-rated double door applications. It also holds a California State Reference Code listing and a Miami DADE N.O.A. hurricane compliance. Among the Grade 1 comparables the Schlage NDEB ENGAGE wireless lock and the TownSteel FCE-2000 are heavy duty Grade 1 cylindrical locks, but the fire and hurricane listings above are what a labeled opening or a coastal job is specified against.
15) Which lever styles and finishes does the Dormakaba QCL100 come in, and do they match the rest of my building?
Three lever designs: E Sierra, M Summit, and A Slate. Five finishes: 605 bright brass, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 619 satin nickel, 625 bright chrome, and 626 satin chrome. Those are standard BHMA finish numbers, so if the hardware schedule on your other openings calls out 626, the QCL100 in 626 matches it. Exposed trim is pressure cast zinc plated to match the finish designation.
16) Is the QCL100 heavy duty enough for an apartment building or hotel corridor?
That is exactly what it is built for. The QCL100 is a Grade 1 heavy-duty cylindrical lock intended as a cost-effective solution for non-institutional work: hospitality, multi-family residences, and commercial office space. Heavy-duty torsion springs keep the lever from sagging under constant use, and the thru-bolt design and clutching mechanism take the abuse that a corridor or unit entry sees. For high-security institutional openings such as schools and detention, spec up rather than using this series.
17) What is the difference between the Dormakaba QCL100 and the QCL200?
Both are cylindrical locksets and both come keyed different with an SC keyway and the 118F ANSI 1-1/8 inch x 2-3/4 inch strike. The QCL100 is the QCL100 series Grade 1 heavy-duty line for hospitality, multi-family and commercial office openings; the QCL200 is the next series up in the same family, sold by Stanley Security. If you are standardizing a building on one series, pick the one your hardware schedule names and keep the keyway consistent across both.
18) I need a mechanical Grade 1 passage or privacy lever, not a keyed one. What else is there besides the QCL100?
The QCL100 covers both non-keyed functions itself, in Passage and Privacy models. If you want to cross-shop, Cal-Royal's Calypso CAL20 is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty privacy lock and the CAL30 is the matching Grade 1 passage lock, both rated for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, the same thickness range the QCL100 covers. Marks USA 195N is another Grade 1 passage lever, in the Survivor Series with an ADA compliant American lever.
19) Should I use a mechanical QCL100 or go to an electronic cylindrical lock on this opening?
Use the mechanical QCL100 where the door is keyed into an existing master key system and nobody needs an audit trail or code changes. Go electronic where you are rotating tenants, contractors or students and re-keying is the real cost. Among electronic cylindrical locks, the Alarm Lock Trilogy T2 DL2700 is a Grade 1 standalone keypad lock with 100 user codes and IC/SFIC compatibility for 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors, and the Alarm Lock T3 DL3200 series adds an audit trail. Note the thickness range on those electronic units is narrower than the QCL100's 1-3/8 to 2 inches, so a thin door can rule them out.
20) Can the QCL100 be electrified for access control?
Electrification options are available on the QCL100 series, so the lock can be tied into an access control system rather than replaced with a standalone unit. If you would rather have the reader in the lock itself, the Schlage NDEB is a Grade 1 ENGAGE series cylindrical lock with a 2.4 GHz Bluetooth Low Energy reader for 1-5/8 to 2 inch doors, and the SDC Electra 7200 is a solenoid controlled cylindrical lock running dual voltage 12/24VDC on 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors.
21) How does the QCL100 keying come out of the box if I am ordering for several doors?
The QCL100 as supplied is keyed different with an SC keyway, meaning each lock arrives on its own key rather than keyed alike. For a fleet of units where one key should open a group, plan the keying up front: the SC keyway is the common Schlage-style keyway a locksmith can pin into an existing system, or take the SFIC route and drop your own cores into the locks so the building's master key system carries over unchanged.
22) Is a dummy lever available as a match to a Dormakaba QCL100, or do I need another brand?
The QCL100 includes a single/half dummy in its function range, surface mounted, so the inactive leaf carries the same Sierra, Summit or Slate lever and the same finish as the working locks. The Orca Hardware OCL2170 is a Grade 2 half dummy lever in a medium duty line, which is a different trim family and will not visually match a QCL100 lever on an adjacent door.
23) What Grade 1 lever lock can I use instead of a Dormakaba QCL100 for a plain passage door?
The Marks USA 195N passage lever lockset is a Grade 1 Survivor Series lock with a passage function and an American lever, and it is ADA compliant. The QCL100 also covers passage in its function range and is ADA compliant to ANSI A117.1. The choice comes down to lever style and how the rest of the openings in the building are keyed, since the QCL100 passage function sits in a series that also carries storeroom, classroom and privacy on the same trim.
24) What is a lighter-duty alternative to the Dormakaba QCL100 for a low-traffic interior door?
The Orca Hardware OCL210 passage cylindrical lockset and OCL240 privacy cylindrical lockset are both Grade 2, medium duty. The Marks USA 110AB entry knob lockset is Grade 2 with an entrance function, a round knob and a 2-3/8 inch backset. The QCL100 is Grade 1 built for high traffic and heavy abuse with heavy-duty torsion springs to prevent lever sag, which is the difference that matters on a corridor or a unit entry rather than a closet.
25) What looks like a substitute for a Dormakaba QCL100 but is not a cylindrical lock?
The Schlage XE360M is a Grade 1 wireless tubular lock with an offline push button function and smart mobile reader, in a classroom/storeroom function for 1-3/4 inch doors. Tubular is a different chassis and a different door prep from the QCL100, which is a cylindrical lock using a 2-1/8 inch diameter cross bore with a 2-3/4 inch square backset standard. The Kwikset 912TNL SmartCode electronic Tustin lever is another one to watch: it is keyed one side for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, without the Grade 1 certification the QCL100 carries.
26) For a hotel or apartment building, is a Dormakaba QCL100 the right cylindrical lock or should I look at an access control lock?
The QCL100 is a cost-effective cylindrical solution for non-institutional applications such as hospitality, multi-family residences and commercial office spaces, in Grade 1 with entry/office, corridor, storeroom, privacy and passage functions on one series. If the property wants credentials rather than keys, the Schlage NDEB is a Grade 1 heavy duty ENGAGE Series cylindrical lock with a 2.4 GHz Bluetooth Low Energy reader and mobile enabled multi-function operation for 1-5/8 to 2 inch doors, and the CENTRIOS CEB100 is a Grade 1 smart Bluetooth cylindrical lock. The QCL100 keeps the whole property on one mechanical keying scheme.
27) I need an electrified cylindrical lock tied into an access control panel. Does the Dormakaba QCL100 do that?
The QCL100 offers electrification options within the Grade 1 series, so the same lever designs and finishes carry across the electrified and mechanical openings. For a hardwired fail safe or fail secure lock driven directly from a panel, the SDC Electra 7200 Series is a solenoid controlled cylindrical lock with dual voltage 12/24VDC for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors. The SDC E75 Series is battery powered with keypad access control for 1-3/4 to 2-1/8 inch doors, which suits an opening with no power run to it.
28) What can I use instead of a Dormakaba QCL100 privacy lock on a restroom or bedroom door?
The Cal-Royal CAL20 is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty privacy lock in the Calypso Series for doors 1-3/8 to 2 inches. The Orca Hardware OCL240 is a Grade 2 medium duty privacy cylindrical lockset. On the electronic side, the Alarm Lock Trilogy 4100 is a Grade 1 lock with a privacy function and keypad for doors 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inches, and the Schlage CO-100 is a Grade 1 heavy duty standalone electronic lock in privacy function for 1-3/4 inch doors. The QCL100 carries privacy in the same Grade 1 series as its storeroom and classroom functions, which keeps one lever design across the suite.
29) What is the difference between the Dormakaba QCL100 and the Stanley QTL230E for a passage opening?
The Stanley QTL230E is a Grade 2 passage lever in the QTL200 Series, a Sierra bent lever with small rose, an adjustable square latch and a 4-7/8 inch by 1-1/4 inch ANSI strike. The QCL100 is Grade 1 with a 2-3/4 inch square backset standard, 2-3/8 inch and 5 inch also available, and a 1-1/4 inch by 4-7/8 inch ANSI strike standard. Both take the same ANSI strike prep in the frame, so the frame side does not change; the grade and the backset options are where they diverge.
30) Can a keyless mechanical pushbutton lock replace a Dormakaba QCL100 on a back door?
The Lockey 2830 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless knob lock with an auto-locking passage function for doors 1-1/8 to 2 inches, and the Lockey 1600 is a heavy duty mechanical keyless knob lock with an adjustable backset over the same thickness range. Both are knob trim rather than the lever trim the QCL100 uses, and the QCL100 is ADA compliant to ANSI A117.1, which matters if the opening falls under an accessibility requirement.
31) Is a Grade 1 lock like the QCL100 worth it over a Grade 2 lockset for a rental property?
Grade 1 is the highest ANSI/BHMA operational and security grade for locksets, and the QCL100 is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Grade 1. On unit entries, corridors and any door the public touches, that grade is what holds up to the cycle count. Grade 2 is a legitimate choice for lower-traffic interior openings, and the comparable set includes Grade 2 cylindrical locksets such as the Orca Hardware OCL250 entrance and OCL240 privacy, both medium duty. For a high-traffic or abuse-prone door, stay Grade 1.
32) Which cylindrical locks come in oil rubbed bronze or satin nickel to match a Dormakaba QCL100?
The QCL100 is offered in 605 bright brass, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 619 satin nickel, 625 bright chrome and 626 satin chrome, with exposed trim in pressure cast zinc plated to match the finish designation. The Marks USA 110AB entry knob is a satin stainless steel knob lockset, which is a different finish family and a different trim shape from a QCL100 lever. Where a property is matching finish across doors, staying inside the QCL100 finish range keeps the whole suite consistent.
