Marks USA 195B Entry Function Cylindrical Leverset — 95 Line Survivor Series, Marks C Keyway, Grade 1

The Marks USA 195B is a Grade 1 Entry Function Cylindrical Leverset from the 95 Line Survivor Series, engineered for demanding commercial applications requiring exceptional durability and security. Supplied with 6-pin cylinders in Marks "C" keyway and 2 nickel-silver keys, this leverset features a cast stainless steel retractor with bronze roller bearings for ultra-high strength, smooth operation, and long service life. Rated for door thicknesses of 1-5/8" to 1-7/8" (use K1704 spacer for 1-3/8" doors), the 195B supports electrified functions at 100% duty cycle with 24V/AC (bridge rectifier included) or 24V/DC at 0.21 Amps. UL Listed with a 3-hour fire rating, this leverset meets ANSI/BHMA standards and is ADA Compliant.

Key Features

  • Exceptional Torque Resistance: Withstands torque of 1,800 inch-pounds — over twice the ANSI/BHMA (1996) test value — for superior resistance to forced entry and abuse.
  • Outstanding Cycle Life: Life tested over 6 million cycles and fully operational after testing, ensuring long-term reliability in high-traffic commercial environments.
  • Breakaway Lever Protection: American and Crescent design breakaway handles protect against excessive abuse, reducing torque applied to the outside lever and preventing lockset failure.

  • Vibration-Proof Thru-Bolt Mounting: Thru-bolting with #10 epoxy-coated bolts assures vibration-proof mounting; only two thru-bolts required for easy installation. Rose is thru-bolted, 3-7/16" diameter, spring-loaded with 2 #10 thru-bolts.
  • Comprehensive Backset Options: Standard backset of 2-3/4"; optional backsets of 2-3/8", 3-3/4", and 5" for flexible door preparation compatibility.
  • Latch & Strike Specifications: Latch #1834 with 1-1/8" x 2-1/4" front and 9/16" stainless steel nose throw; Strike #1135, 4-7/8" ASA curved lip for secure latching.
  • Electrified Function Support: 100% duty cycle electrified operation at 24V/AC with bridge rectifier or 24V/DC at 0.21 Amps; optional Request to Exit (Rex) switch — single pole, double throw, 3 amp, 125 AC, wired normally open or normally closed.
  • Solid Cast Zamac Levers: Levers are solid cast Zamac with 1/2" return for robust construction and consistent performance.
  • Multiple Function Availability: Available in a full range of ANSI functions including Passage (F75), Privacy (F76), Patio (F77), Entry (F81), Entrance (F109), Classroom (F84), Storeroom (F86), Classroom Intruder (F110), Electrically Locked Fail Safe (FEL), Electrically Unlocked Fail Secure (FEU), and many more.

Marks USA 195B/26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What door thickness does the Marks USA 195B cylindrical leverset fit, and can it go on a 1-3/8 inch door?
The 195B is rated for doors 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inches thick. For a 1-3/8 inch door you have to add the K1704 spacer, which is a separate item on the order, so don't plan on the lock alone dropping into a thinner older door. If the openings are a mix of thicknesses, a lock with a wider native range covers more of them in one part number: the Cal-Royal CAL30 passage lockset takes 1-3/8 to 2 inches, and the Dorma C150 covers 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches.
2) Will the Marks 195B latch work with the strike already in my frame?
The 195B ships with the #1834 latch, a 1-1/8 x 2-1/4 inch front and a 9/16 inch deadlocking throw, and the #1135 strike, a 4-7/8 inch ASA curved lip. A 9/16 inch throw is short, so it needs a strike lip and pocket that sit close to the door face. If your frame already carries a 4-7/8 inch ANSI strike prep, the supplied strike drops in. If the frame has a small T-strike or a deep-set pocket meant for a longer throw, reuse of the existing strike is not a safe assumption, prep the frame for the 1135.
3) Is the Marks USA 195B leverset fire rated and ADA compliant for a school or hospital corridor door?
Grade 1, UL Listed with a 3-hour fire rating, and ADA compliant. That combination is what a facility standard usually calls for on a labeled corridor or stair door, and the lever (rather than a knob) is the part that satisfies the ADA operable-hardware requirement. It is built as commercial hardware, not a light-duty residential lockset.
4) The door needs to lock — what should I use instead of the Marks USA 195B?
The Marks USA 195B is a passage function lever: the latch is retracted by the levers at all times and it is non-keyed. For a keyed opening, the Dorma C853 is a Grade 1 single cylinder entry lever in Entrance function covering 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Dorma C150 is a Grade 1 heavy-duty cylindrical lock in Entrance/Office function over the same thickness range. For a bathroom or bedroom that needs a thumbturn instead of a key, the Cal-Royal CAL20 is a Grade 1 privacy lock.
5) For a classroom door needing intruder lockdown, what replaces the Marks USA 195B?
A passage function lever cannot lock down, so it is the wrong device for a lockdown opening. The TownSteel XCE-9000 is a Grade 1 heavy duty electronic classroom intruder cylindrical lockset with a keypad for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, and the TownSteel FCE-4000 is a Grade 1 heavy duty RFID electronic intruder classroom cylindrical lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Schlage XE360M is a Grade 1 wireless tubular lock in Classroom/Storeroom function for 1-3/4 inch doors.
6) How does the Marks 195B hold up on a high-traffic door that keeps getting locksets broken?
Abuse resistance is the point of the 95 Line Survivor Series. The 195B takes 1,800 inch-pounds of torque, over twice the ANSI/BHMA (1996) test value, and was life tested past 6 million cycles still fully operational. The retractor is cast stainless steel running on bronze roller bearings, and the levers are breakaway (American and Crescent designs) so someone hanging on the outside lever sheds the load instead of destroying the lock body. For a school entry or a gym door that eats hardware, that breakaway behavior is usually what decides it.
7) What do I need to run power to a Marks 195 Series electrified leverset?
Electrified 195 Series locks run at 100 percent duty cycle on 24V AC with the included bridge rectifier, or 24V DC drawing 0.21 amps. A request-to-exit switch is optional: single pole double throw, 3 amp at 125 AC, and it can be wired normally open or normally closed to suit the panel. You choose the fail safe (FEL, electrically locked) or fail secure (FEU, electrically unlocked) version at order time, and that choice is not field-reversible, so settle the egress requirement for the opening first. Power transfer through the frame to the door is a separate item.
8) What lock functions can I get in the Marks 195 Series so I can standardize one lockset across a building?
The 195 Series covers the full ANSI function range off one chassis: Passage F75, Privacy F76, Patio F77, Entry F81, Entrance F109, Classroom F84, Storeroom F86, Classroom Intruder F110, plus the electrified fail safe and fail secure versions. That is the practical argument for it in a facility, restrooms, offices, classrooms, and storerooms all take the same lever, the same rose, and the same door prep, so your spare parts and your prep drawings collapse to one item. Function is specified per lock when ordering.
9) Should I use a mechanical Marks 195 leverset or an electronic keypad lock on this door?
A mechanical 195 Series lever is the right call when the door just needs a durable, code-compliant lock and access is managed with keys, no batteries, no programming, no audit trail to maintain. Go electronic when you need to change who gets in without rekeying. In that case, the Alarm Lock Trilogy T2 DL2700 is a standalone Grade 1 keypad cylindrical lock with 100 user codes and IC/SFIC compatibility fitting 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors, the same thickness range as the 195B, and the Alarm Lock T3 adds an audit trail. For credential-based access tied to a system, the Schlage NDEB is a Grade 1 wireless Bluetooth cylindrical lock.
10) Is there a lighter-duty cylindrical lever if Grade 1 is more than my opening needs?
Grade 1 is heavy commercial duty, and on a low-traffic interior door it is more lock than the job requires. For those openings the Orca Hardware OCL210 is a Grade 2 medium duty passage lockset, the OCL240 is the Grade 2 privacy version for restrooms and bed/bath, and the OCL250 is the Grade 2 entrance lockset. Where the door is an office or entry that still sees real traffic but not abuse, the Dorma C853 is a Grade 1 keyed entry lever covering 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch doors. Keep the 195 Series on the doors that actually get hit.
11) Is there a lighter-duty passage lever that fits the same opening as the Marks USA 195B?
Two Grade 2 passage levers cover the same function. The Orca Hardware OCL210 is a medium duty Grade 2 passage cylindrical lockset, and the Dorma CL701 is a Grade 2 non-keyed lever in Passage/Hall/Closet function from the CL700 Series. Both step down from the Grade 1 rating the Marks USA 195B carries, which is the difference to weigh on a high-traffic corridor versus a low-use interior door.
12) Can a dummy lever be used in place of the Marks USA 195B?
No — a dummy trim has no latch. The Marks USA 195B is a cylindrical lock whose latch is retracted by the levers at all times, so it actually latches the door. The Dorma C501 is a single dummy trim keyless lever in Dummy function and the Orca Hardware OCL2170 is a Grade 2 half dummy lever; both are surface-mounted pulls for an inactive leaf or a closet door that latches by other means, and neither prepares to a bored lock cutout with a latch.
13) What are the Grade 1 electronic alternatives to the Marks USA 195B on the same door prep?
Several Grade 1 electronic cylindrical locks fit a bored door and add code or credential control the mechanical Marks USA 195B does not have. The Alarm Lock Trilogy T2 DL2700 is a Grade 1 standalone electronic cylindrical entrance lock with a digital keypad, 100 user codes and IC/SFIC compatibility, and covers 1-5/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch doors. The Schlage NDEB ENGAGE Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty wireless cylindrical lock with 2.4 GHz Bluetooth Low Energy for 1-5/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The TownSteel XCE-2000 is a Grade 1 heavy duty keypad cylindrical lockset in Classroom function for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors.
14) Is a keyless pushbutton knob lock a substitute for the Marks USA 195B passage lever?
Only if the opening does not need a lever. The Lockey 2830 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless knob lock with an auto-locking passage function covering 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. Both are knob trim, so they do not meet the ADA compliance the Marks USA 195B carries on an opening where lever trim is required.
15) How does the Marks 195B mount, and do I need a special rose prep?
Mounting is thru-bolted with two #10 epoxy-coated bolts, which is what keeps it from working loose on a door that slams. The rose is 3-7/16 inches in diameter, spring loaded, and thru-bolted with those two bolts. Only two thru-bolts means a faster install than four-point chassis, and the rose diameter is the number to check against the old lock, if the previous rose was larger you may see a witness ring on the door face.
16) What finish does the Marks USA 195B leverset come in?
US26 polished chrome, a bright mirror finish. It reads close to polished stainless (US32) and to chrome-plated brass on adjacent openings, but it will not match a satin chrome US26D lever standing next to it, the difference is obvious on a pair of doors. If the building standard is satin, order the satin version rather than mixing them on the same frame.
17) What are the Marks 195B levers made of and will they stand up to a corridor?
Levers are solid cast Zamac with a 1/2 inch return. The return is the bend back toward the door face, and a returned lever is what keeps clothing and equipment carts from catching on the end of the handle, which is also why returned levers are the standard on ADA openings. Combined with the breakaway design, the lever is meant to give up before the chassis does.
