Key Features

  • Exceeds BHMA Grade 1 by 300%: Tested to over 3.6 million cycles, far surpassing standard Grade 1 requirements for exceptional long-term reliability in high-traffic environments.
  • Unique Stainless Steel Clutch Mechanism: When locked, levers disengage from the retractor and interior mechanisms, swinging freely without resistance — eliminating lever droop and dramatically reducing wear and abuse on lock components.
  • Anti-Ligature Design: The freely swinging lever design provides an anti-ligature solution suitable for healthcare, institutional, and behavioral health environments.
  • Cast Bronze Roller Bearings: Cylindrical lock chassis constructed with cast retractors on bronze roller bearings for millions of cycles of smooth, durable operation.
  • Door Thickness & Backset Compatibility: Fits door thicknesses of 1-5/8" to 1-7/8"; use K1904 spacer for 1-3/8" doors. Accommodates both 2-3/8" and 2-3/4" backsets.
  • Latch Specifications: Latch #1834 with 1-1/8" x 2-1/4" front, 9/16" throw, and stainless steel nose for corrosion resistance and durability.
  • Solid Cast Zamac Levers with 1/2" Return: Thru-bolted roses at 3-7/16" diameter with spring-loaded 2-#10 thru-bolts for secure, stable mounting.
  • 3-Hour Fire Rated: Certified for use in fire-rated door assemblies, supporting code compliance in commercial and institutional buildings.
  • Marks Lifetime Mechanical Warranty: Backed by Marks USA's Lifetime Mechanical Warranty for long-term confidence and protection.

Marks USA 195SSN/32D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Marks USA 195SSN passage lockset fit a 1-3/8 inch door?
Not by itself. The 195SSN is built for door thicknesses of 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inches. For a 1-3/8 inch door you need the K1904 spacer, which Marks makes for that purpose. On a standard 1-3/4 inch commercial door it drops in without anything extra.
2) Does the Marks 195SSN come with a 2-3/4 inch backset or can I use it on a 2-3/8 inch bore?
It ships set up for a 2-3/4 inch backset, which is the usual commercial prep, but the 195 Series chassis accommodates both 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inch backsets. Latch front is 1-1/8 by 2-1/4 inches, so it drops into a standard square-corner latch mortise.
3) What does the anti-ligature clutch on the Marks 195SSN actually do?
The stainless steel clutch lets the lever swing freely instead of holding a fixed horizontal position, so there is nothing for a cord or strap to load against. The same design means the lever cannot be forced or drooped into a stuck position, which is why it holds up in behavioral health, correctional, and school openings where levers get abused.
4) Is the Marks 195SSN keyed, and what does passage function mean on this lock?
No cylinder and no key. It's ANSI F75 passage function, which means the latch retracts from the lever on either side at all times and the door never locks. Use it on corridors, closets, and hall doors. If you need the room to secure, you want an entrance or classroom function lock instead.
5) Can I use the Marks 195SSN on a 3-hour fire rated door?
Yes. The 195SSN is 3-hour fire rated and UL Listed, and the deadlocking latch is what a fire assembly requires to stay positively latched. It's also ADA compliant, so the lever meets the operable-hardware requirement on accessible openings.
6) What is a straight Grade 1 passage lever equivalent to the Marks USA 195SSN?
The Cal-Royal CAL30 is the closest like-for-like: a Grade 1 extra heavy duty passage cylindrical lockset in the Calypso series, with a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness range. The Marks USA 195SSN is also a Grade 1 cylindrical passage lockset with an ANSI F75 function, but it carries the Survivor Series stainless steel clutch, so the levers swing free rather than driving the retractor. If the clutch and anti-ligature behavior are what the spec calls for, the CAL30 is not a substitute; if you simply need a heavy duty passage lever, it covers the opening and takes a wider door thickness range.
7) The behavioral health opening needs privacy, not passage - what takes the place of the 195SSN?
The 195SSN is a passage lockset only; it is non-keyed and the latch is retracted by the levers at all times, so there is no way to secure the room. For a privacy function in the same cylindrical format, the Cal-Royal CAL20 is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty privacy lock fitting 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Orca Hardware OCL240 is a medium duty Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lockset. Confirm with the facility whether their anti-ligature requirement permits a locking function on that room before specifying either.
8) Is the Marks 195SSN really Grade 1, and how does the cycle life compare to a standard commercial lockset?
Grade 1, and Marks tests the 195 Series past 3.6 million cycles, roughly 300 percent over the BHMA Grade 1 requirement. The chassis uses cast retractors running on bronze roller bearings, which is where the cycle life comes from. For a high-traffic corridor or a school that replaces passage sets every few years, that is the spec that matters more than anything else on the sheet.
9) I need the same door prep but with keypad access instead of passage. What works on the same 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch door?
Same cylindrical prep and the same 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch thickness range, the Alarm Lock Trilogy DL2700 is a Grade 1 standalone electronic cylindrical lock with a digital keypad and 100 user codes. The Trilogy 4100 covers that thickness range too but in privacy function. The Schlage NDEB ENGAGE wireless lock runs 1-5/8 to 2 inches if you want a networked opening.
10) We need the same lever look on a door that does not latch at all - what do we order instead of the 195SSN?
A dummy trim is the right call there. The Dorma C501 is a Grade 2 single dummy keyless lever lockset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Orca Hardware OCL2170 is a Grade 2 half dummy lever. Neither has a latch or chassis - they surface mount for pull-only doors such as inactive leaves and closet fronts. The Marks USA 195SSN is a working passage lockset whose latch is retracted by the levers at all times, so it is the part you want only where the door actually latches.
11) Is there a lighter duty passage lever than the Marks 195SSN for low traffic interior doors?
Yes. 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 the CL700 series with a passage function. Both are a step down in cycle rating from the Marks USA 195SSN, which is Grade 1 and tested past 3.6 million cycles with cast retractors on bronze roller bearings. For offices, storage rooms, and other doors that see light use, the Grade 2 options do the same job; for corridors, classrooms, and healthcare traffic, stay with the Grade 1 chassis.
12) If we want keypad access on that door instead of a mechanical passage lever, what cylindrical locks fit the same 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors?
The Marks USA 195SSN fits 1-5/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch doors, with a K1904 spacer for 1-3/8 inch. Among electronic cylindrical locks on that same range, the Alarm Lock Trilogy T2 DL2700 is Grade 1 with a digital keypad, 100 user codes and IC/SFIC compatibility; the Alarm Lock Trilogy 4100 is Grade 1 with a privacy function; and the Alarm Lock DL5200 is a double-sided electronic cylindrical lock with 100 user capacity and battery operation. All three add credential control the mechanical 195SSN does not have, and all three require battery service the 195SSN does not.
13) Will a Lockey 2830 work as a substitute for the Marks 195SSN passage lockset?
Not as a direct swap. The Lockey 2830 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless knob lock with an auto-locking passage function for 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors, so it is a knob with a code pad rather than a lever, and code entry governs the door. The Marks USA 195SSN is a lever lockset that is ADA compliant and whose latch is retracted by the levers at all times. Where the opening is on an accessible route or needs the free-swinging anti-ligature lever, the 2830 does not cover it.
14) For a classroom or classroom-intruder opening, what replaces the 195SSN?
The 195SSN is a passage function lockset, so it cannot secure a classroom. For that opening, TownSteel offers the FCE-2000 and FCE-4000 Grade 1 heavy duty RFID cylindrical locksets with a classroom function on 1-3/4 inch doors, and the XCE-2000 and XCE-9000 Grade 1 keypad classroom locksets for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, the XCE-9000 being the classroom intruder version. The Schlage XE360M is a Grade 1 wireless tubular lock with a classroom/storeroom function on 1-3/4 inch doors. Note the narrower door thickness ranges against the 1-5/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch range the 195SSN accepts.
15) What finish does the Marks 195SSN lever lockset come in?
US32D satin stainless steel. That's the standard institutional finish, so it matches the satin stainless push plates, hinges, and closers already on most healthcare and school openings.
16) How do the levers and roses mount on the Marks 195 Series, and will they hold up to abuse?
Solid cast Zamac levers with a 1/2 inch return, on thru-bolted roses 3-7/16 inches in diameter, secured with two spring-loaded #10 thru-bolts. Thru-bolting means the pull is carried through the door rather than by screws into the chassis, which is what keeps the trim tight on abused openings.
17) Does the Stanley QTL230E passage lever cross to the Marks 195SSN?
Treat it carefully. The Stanley Security QTL230E-SA-478S is a Grade 2 passage lever with a Sierra bent lever and small rose, an adjustable square latch and a 4-7/8 inch by 1-1/4 inch ANSI strike. The Marks USA 195SSN ships with a 4-7/8 inch ASA curved lip ANSI strike and a #1834 latch with a 1-1/8 inch by 2-1/4 inch front and 9/16 inch throw. The strike preps are close enough that the frame usually carries over, but the Stanley is a fixed-lever Grade 2 unit without the clutch, so it is a downgrade in grade and does not give you the anti-ligature behavior.
