Hager 2525-WTN-US26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Hager 2525 entry lever fit a 1-3/8 inch door, and what door prep does it need?
The Hager 2525 covers door thickness from 1-3/8 inch up to 2 inch, so it handles both older 1-3/8 interior doors and standard 1-3/4 commercial doors without a thickness kit. Prep is the standard bored pattern: 2-1/8 inch cross bore and a 1 inch edge bore for the latch, on a 2-3/4 inch backset. Rose diameter is 3-11/32 inch, so it will cover a slightly oversized or worn cross bore on a retrofit.
2) Will the Hager 2525 latch into the strike already in my frame?
It ships to work with a 1-1/4 x 4-7/8 inch ASA strike, which is the standard commercial frame prep, and the latchbolt is a deadlocking stainless bolt with a 1/2 inch throw. If your frame already has an ASA strike cut from another cylindrical lock on a 2-3/4 inch backset, the 2525 drops into it. A residential T-strike or round-corner strike prep will need the frame reworked or the strike changed.
3) Can the Hager 2525 go on a fire rated door?
Yes. The 2525 is UL/cUL listed for all functions up to 3 hour A label single doors and carries the UL10C positive pressure rating. It also meets ANSI A117.1 for accessibility, which is why the lever rather than a knob matters on rated egress openings.
4) What keyway does the Hager 2525 come with, and can I put it on my existing master key system?
Standard cylinder is Schlage C keyway, keyed different, drilled 6-pin and keyed to 5 pins, with two keys per lock. Other keyways are available as an option. If your building runs an interchangeable core system, the 2525 is also offered in a Small Format Interchangeable Core housing, and the cores themselves are bought separately.
5) I need a 2-3/8 inch backset instead of 2-3/4. Does the Hager 2525 work?
Standard backset on the 2525 is 2-3/4 inch, with a 1-1/8 x 2-1/4 inch latch faceplate; an optional 2-3/8 inch backset latch uses a 1 x 2-1/4 inch faceplate. If your doors are already bored at 2-3/8, specify that backset when ordering. Cal-Royal's AG00 entrance lever is another Schlage C keyed option supplied at 2-3/8 inch backset.
6) What is a comparable Grade 2 cylindrical entry lever to the Hager 2525 from another brand?
The Falcon B511CP6D is a close peer: a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical lever lock with entry/office function, against the Hager 2525's Grade 2 entrance function cylindrical leverset. Cal-Royal's AG00 is another Grade 2 entrance lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway, which matches the 2525's standard Schlage C keyway, though the AG00 is specified with a 2-3/8 inch backset where the 2525 uses 2-3/4 inch.
7) I need a heavier duty entry lever than the Hager 2525 for a high traffic opening. What should I look at?
The Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 lockset rated for standard duty commercial use. For a step up in the same cylindrical format, the Falcon K101 and T101 are Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical lever locks, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant cylindrical lever. Those three are passage function, so if you need keyed entry, Dexter's C1000 Series is Grade 1 and offered in keyed functions such as classroom and classroom security.
8) Is a Kwikset 200BRNL or Callan Artino lever a substitute for the Hager 2525?
Not on a commercial spec. The Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial keyed entrance leverset. The Kwikset 200BRNL Breton is Grade 3 and passage function, so it is non-keyed, and the Callan Artino is a Grade 3 entrance leverset. Master Lock's RL Series return style lever is also Grade 3 keyed entry. Those Grade 3 sets sit below the 2525's Grade 2 certification level.
9) My opening needs a storeroom or classroom lever instead of entrance function. What replaces the Hager 2525?
The Hager 2525 is built as an entrance function lock with a single cylinder. For storeroom, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom leverset with a deadlocking latchbolt, matching the 2525's deadlocking latch behavior. For classroom, the Cal-Royal AG03 is a Grade 2 classroom lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway and 2-3/4 inch backset, the same backset the 2525 uses. The Dexter C1000 classroom and classroom security levers are the Grade 1 option.
10) Will a lever that fits a 1-3/4 inch door work where I am using the Hager 2525 on a 1-3/8 inch door?
Check the range before you substitute. The Hager 2525 covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness. Several cylindrical peers start at 1-3/4 inch, including the Arrow GL01 at 1-3/4 to 2 inch and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 at 1-3/4 to 2 inch, and the Design Hardware J75 is listed for 1-3/4 inch. Peers that reach down to 1-3/8 inch like the 2525 include the Dexter C1000 asylum at 1-3/8 to 2 inch and the Falcon K101 at 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch.
11) Do I need an electrified lever instead of the Hager 2525 for access control?
The Hager 2525 is a mechanical keyed entrance lock with no electrical option. If the opening ties into an access control system, the Corbin Russwin CL33903 is a Grade 1 fail safe electrified cylindrical lever lock available in 12VAC/DC and listed for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch door thickness, a narrower range than the 2525's 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
12) What does the entrance function on the Hager 2525 actually do at the door?
Entrance function, single cylinder: keyed from the outside, and the inside lever always retracts the latch for free egress. The latchbolt deadlocks when the door closes so it cannot be shimmed or carded. It suits tenant entry doors, offices, and back-of-house doors where you want the outside secured but no key needed to get out.
13) What lever styles and finishes does the Hager 2525 come in?
Two lever designs, Archer and Withnell, each offered in 605 bright brass, 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, 626 satin chrome, and black. The lever is zinc based and plated to match BHMA finish symbols, with wrought brass, bronze, and stainless steel exposed trim. If you are standardizing a building, 626 satin chrome is the usual commercial match.
14) Is the Hager 2525 handed, and do I need to order left or right?
No handing to specify. The 2525 is ordered by lever design and finish only, and the latch is installed for either swing during prep, so one part number covers both hands of a single door opening.
15) Is Grade 2 enough for a school or hospital corridor door, or should I move up to Grade 1?
The 2525 is BHMA A156.2 Grade 2, which is standard duty commercial. That is sound for offices, tenant entries, and moderate traffic. On high abuse openings like school corridors or main entrances, a Grade 1 cylindrical is the better call. Grade 1 options we carry include the Corbin Russwin CL3100 Series and the Falcon K Series, both rated Grade 1 heavy duty.
16) What should I order for the non-keyed doors on the same job as the Hager 2525?
The Hager 2525 is keyed and supplied with two operating keys, so it is not the part for hall, closet, or bath doors. In Grade 2 cylindrical lever, the Accentra 5301LN Augusta and 4601LN are passage/closet function, the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 non-handed passage lever, and the Arrow GL01 is a Grade 2 non-keyed passage lever with a Sierra handle. For a matching inactive leaf, the BEST 7KC single dummy trim is a Grade 2 non-keyed lever.
17) Can I use a keypad lever instead of the keyed Hager 2525 to get rid of key management?
Yes, if you can live without a cylinder. The Hager 2525 is a keyed single cylinder lock on a Schlage C keyway. Keyless cylindrical lever alternatives include the Delaney LP250 Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock, the Lockey 2835 mechanical pushbutton keyless lever with passage function and the 2835DC double combination version, and the Lockey 1150 heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set. The Lockey 2835 sets list 1-3/16 inch to 2 inch door thickness, where the 2525 covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
18) I want a decorative entry lever for a tenant-facing door rather than the Hager 2525. What are the options?
The Hager 2525 is a commercial Grade 2 cylindrical entrance lock with a 3-11/32 inch rose and Archer or Withnell lever styles. For a decorative look on the same door thickness range, Deltana's entry levers cover it: the 6201 Manchester, 6411 Morant and 6431 Linstead are all listed for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness in entry function, and the 5851 Claremont is also an entry lever. Baldwin's Estate 5103 lever is offered in passage, privacy and half dummy for the surrounding doors.
19) Is the Arrow HK11 entrance lock the same thing as the Hager 2525?
They share function and grade but not the trim. Both are Grade 2 entrance function cylindrical locks, and the Arrow HK11-BB is listed for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness where the Hager 2525 goes to 2 inch. The bigger difference is the operator: the HK11-BB is a ball knob with turn-pushbutton operation, while the 2525 is a lever, which is what makes it ADA compliant trim for accessible openings.
20) What other Hager-compatible functions should I order for the rest of the doors in the same run?
The 2525 is the keyed entrance lock. For closets and corridor doors on the same job you want a non-keyed passage, and for restrooms a privacy set. Grade 2 passage locks we carry that pair well include the Falcon B101 and the Accentra 5301LN Augusta. Order the matching lever design across all of them so the openings look consistent.
21) Will the mounting screws show on the outside of the door?
No. The 2525 mounts with no exposed screws on the trim, so both sides present a clean rose. That matters on tenant-facing doors and on any opening where exposed fasteners would be a security concern.
