Marks USA 195N-26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Marks USA 195N passage lever fit my existing 2-3/4 inch backset door prep?
The 195N is a 2-3/4 inch backset cylindrical lockset, which is the standard commercial bore spacing, so it drops into a door already prepped for a commercial cylindrical lever. It uses a 1-1/8 x 2-1/4 inch latch front and a 9/16 inch deadlocking latch. If your existing openings are prepped at 2-3/8 inch backset, which is the common residential spacing, this will not line up.
2) Will the Marks 195N latch into the strike already in my frame?
It ships with an ANSI strike measuring 1-1/4 by 4-7/8 inches, square corner, with a 1-1/4 inch lip, and the latch throws 9/16 inch. If your frames are already cut for a 4-7/8 inch ASA strike, which most commercial hollow metal frames are, the existing strike prep works and the latch reaches it. Frames cut for a small T-strike will need to be modified.
3) Does the Marks 195N meet ADA for a public building?
Yes. The 195N uses the American Lever design and is listed ADA compliant, so the lever operates without tight grasping or wrist twisting. It is also UL Listed and carries an ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 rating, which is what most institutional specs call for on corridor and common-area doors.
4) What is the closest Grade 1 passage lever equivalent to the Marks USA 195N?
The Cal-Royal CAL30 Calypso Series is the nearest peer. Both are Grade 1 cylindrical passage locksets with a Passage/Hall/Closet function, so both retract the latch by lever at all times with no keying involved. The CAL30 lists a door thickness range of 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Marks USA 195N carries the ANSI F75 passage designation, a 9/16 inch deadlocking latch on a 2-3/4 inch backset, and an ANSI 1-1/4 inch x 4-7/8 inch square corner strike with a 1-1/4 inch lip, and it is ADA compliant and UL Listed.
5) The opening needs to be locked and keyed. What replaces the Marks USA 195N?
The 195N is non-keyed and passes freely, so a keyed opening needs a different function. The Dorma C853 is a Grade 1 entry keyed single cylinder lever lockset in the C800 Series with a 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range. The Dorma C150 is a Grade 1 heavy-duty cylindrical lock with an Entrance/Office function over the same 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch range. For lighter duty, the Orca Hardware OCL250 is a Grade 2 medium duty entrance cylindrical lockset.
6) Is a Grade 1 passage lever overkill for office corridors, or should I drop to Grade 2?
For high-traffic corridors the Grade 1 195N is the right call. Marks rates the Survivor Series past 3.6 million cycles, roughly triple the BHMA Grade 1 requirement, and its stainless steel clutch and bronze bearings are what stop lever droop on doors that get pulled on all day. If the door is low-traffic, a Grade 2 passage lever like the Orca Hardware OCL210 or the Dorma CL701 is a medium duty alternative.
7) Do I need to specify handing or a keyway when ordering the Marks 195N?
Neither. The 195N is a non-keyed passage set, so there is no cylinder, no keyway and no keying to specify, and both levers are always active. The only choice on the order is finish. That also means it can be stocked as a single part number across a whole building instead of split by hand or keying.
8) I need keypad access on some doors but plain passage on others. Can I keep the same look with the Marks 195N?
The 195N is mechanical only, with no electronics and no credential reader. For the doors that need access control alongside it, ZenSupply carries Grade 1 cylindrical electronic options that fit the same cylindrical prep, including the Alarm Lock Trilogy T2 DL2700 standalone keypad lock and the Schlage NDEB ENGAGE Series wireless lock. Note both are specified for narrower door thickness ranges than a general-purpose mechanical set, so confirm your leaf thickness before mixing them on one project.
9) Is the Marks 195N suitable for a classroom door?
Only for the doors that never need to be secured, since F75 passage means the levers always retract the latch. For a classroom that has to lock, look at the TownSteel XCE-9000 Series electronic classroom intruder lockset or the Schlage XE360M, both Grade 1 with a classroom function. The 195N belongs on the corridor and closet doors of the same building.
10) Is there a lighter-duty passage lever I can use instead of the Marks 195N on low-traffic interior doors?
Two medium-duty options cover the same passage function. The Orca Hardware OCL210 is a Grade 2 medium duty passage cylindrical lockset, and the Dorma CL701 is a Grade 2 non-keyed cylinder lever lockset in the CL700 Series, also listed with a Passage/Hall/Closet function. Both are non-keyed passage trim like the Marks USA 195N, which is a Grade 1 commercial cylindrical lockset. Choose by the cycle demand of the opening: the Grade 2 units sit a duty tier below the Grade 1 195N.
11) Can I use a dummy lever in place of the Marks 195N passage lockset?
No. A dummy lever is pull trim only and has no latch. The Marks USA 195N has a working 9/16 inch deadlocking latch on a 2-3/4 inch backset that the lever retracts, so it holds the door closed. The Dorma C501 single dummy trim in the C500 Series and the Orca Hardware OCL2170 Grade 2 half dummy lever are the dummy-function parts; use those only on inactive leaves or doors held by a catch, not where the door must latch.
12) How does the Marks 195N compare to the Stanley QCL150 lever?
They are different functions and different grades. The Stanley Security QCL150 is a Grade 2 entry lever, Sierra bent lever with rose, less cylinder, on a square 2-3/4 inch backset latch with a 4-7/8 inch x 1-1/4 inch ASA strike. The Marks USA 195N is Grade 1, non-keyed ANSI F75 passage, on the same 2-3/4 inch backset with an ANSI 1-1/4 inch x 4-7/8 inch square corner strike. The strike and backset prep line up; the QCL150 is a keyed entry unit that ships less cylinder, while the 195N takes no cylinder at all.
13) We want keypad access on the door instead of a mechanical passage lever. What are the Grade 1 alternatives to the Marks 195N?
The Marks USA 195N is a mechanical, non-keyed lockset with no access control. Grade 1 electronic cylindrical alternatives include the Alarm Lock Trilogy T2 DL2700 with a digital keypad, 100 user codes and IC/SFIC compatibility over a 1-5/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch door thickness range; the Alarm Lock T3 DL3075 with audit trail and keypad access; and the TownSteel XCE-2000 heavy duty keypad lockset with a classroom function over a 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch range. All three cut into the same cylindrical door prep family but require power and programming that the 195N does not.
14) Is the Lockey 2830 passage lock a substitute for the Marks USA 195N?
They share the word passage but not the part. The Lockey 2830 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless knob lock with an auto-locking passage function, fitting doors 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch thick, so it is knob trim with a code entry. The Marks USA 195N is a lever lockset with an ADA compliant American Lever design and an ANSI F75 passage function, free passage in both directions with no code and no locking. Where an ADA lever is required, knob trim does not substitute.
15) For a classroom door that needs lockdown, what do I specify instead of the Marks 195N?
Passage function gives no lockdown; the 195N latch is retracted by the levers at all times. For classroom security openings, the TownSteel FCE-4000 is a Grade 1 heavy duty RFID electronic intruder classroom cylindrical lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the TownSteel XCE-9000 is a Grade 1 heavy duty electronic classroom intruder lockset with keypad for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. The Schlage XE360M is a Grade 1 wireless tubular lock with a Classroom/Storeroom function for 1-3/4 inch doors.
16) Why does the Marks 195N use a deadlocking latch if it does not lock?
The deadlatch plunger on the 9/16 inch latch keeps the latchbolt from being pushed back once the door is closed against the strike, so the door stays reliably latched and cannot be rattled or jarred open. It is about holding the door shut in a busy corridor, not security, since the 195N has no keyed or thumbturn locking.
