Hager 3947 US10B – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Hager 3947 spring latch work in a door bored for a 2-3/4 inch backset?
That's exactly what the 3947 is cut for. It's a 2-3/4 inch backset latch, which is the deeper of the two standard commercial backsets (2-3/8 is the other). Measure from the door edge to the center of the knob or lever bore: if that's 2-3/4 inches, this latch drops into the existing bore. If your door measures 2-3/8, this one will not reach and you need a 2-3/8 inch latch instead.
2) What size faceplate mortise does the Hager 3947 latch need in the door edge?
The faceplate measures 1-1/8 x 2-1/4 inches (29mm x 57mm), so the edge mortise has to match that footprint. If the door is already routed for a latch of those dimensions, the 3947 sits flush with no rework. A larger existing mortise will leave a gap around the plate.
3) Do I have to choose square corner or round corner on the Hager 3947 latch?
Yes, corner style is a required choice at order time, square corner or round corner. Look at the routing in the door edge: a router-cut mortise usually has radiused corners and takes the round corner plate, while a chiseled or factory square prep takes the square corner. Pick the one that matches the prep you already have, since the plate has to seat in it.
4) Is the Hager 3947 a locking latch or just a passage latch?
Passage only. The spring latch retracts and extends to hold the door closed, with no locking function of its own, so it suits corridor, office and closet doors that never need to be secured. For a locking opening you need a latch matched to a keyed or privacy lockset, not this one.
5) What's the alternative if my door is prepped for a 2-3/8 inch backset instead of 2-3/4?
You need a shorter-backset springlatch. The Falcon A57420-000 B Series springlatch is a 2-3/8 inch unit with a 1 inch face, which covers the shallower prep common on residential-depth and some narrow openings. The Hager 3947 at 2-3/4 inches cannot be shortened to fit that bore.
6) What finishes does the Hager 3947 spring latch come in?
Four orderable finishes: 605 bright brass, 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, 626 satin chrome, and black. In practice you match the latch face to the lockset trim already on the door, since the faceplate is the only part that shows once the door is closed. 626 satin chrome is the usual match for commercial 626 lever sets.
7) Is a brass spring latch durable enough for a high traffic commercial door?
The 3947 is a brass latch rated by the manufacturer for commercial rather than residential use, so it's the right class of part for office, school, healthcare and multi-tenant corridors. Brass also holds up better than plated steel in humid or coastal openings.
8) Is there an installation template for the Hager 3947 latch prep?
Hager publishes a product template for the 3947 (T-LS00209), which gives the door edge routing and bore locations. Use it to mark the mortise before cutting, especially if you're converting a door that was prepped for a different latch footprint.
