Marks USA MARIQ2LITE – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Marks USA i-Qwik Lite keypad lockset fit a 1-3/4 inch commercial door?
That is exactly what the i-Qwik Lite is built for. The door thickness range is 1-3/4 inches, a single thickness rather than an adjustable range, so it drops onto a standard commercial door and nothing thinner or thicker. Backset is 2-3/4 inches, the usual commercial backset, and it ships to work with a 4-7/8 inch ASA strike. If your doors run thicker than 1-3/4, look at a lock with a stated range instead, such as the SDC E75 Series at 1-3/4 to 2-1/8 inches or the TownSteel XCE-2000 Series at 1-3/4 to 2 inches.
2) Does the i-Qwik Lite keypad lock come with a cylinder, or do I have to order a core separately?
It ships less core. The i-Qwik Lite is prepped for a Schlage full size interchangeable core, so you supply the SFIC yourself and key it into whatever system the building already runs. That is the point of the configuration: a locksmith or facility with an existing Schlage full size IC system can pop a core in and the key override matches every other opening. Two keys are packed with the lock along with four AA batteries.
3) Will the Marks USA i-Qwik Lite drop into my existing strike, or do I have to re-prep the frame?
The i-Qwik Lite is set up for a 4-7/8 inch ASA strike, which is the standard commercial frame prep, so if your frame already carries an ASA strike the frame side is done. The auxiliary latch throws 1/2 inch and deadlocks the main latch against shimming. Where the existing opening has a small 1-1/8 by 2-3/4 inch residential-style strike, the frame needs the larger ASA cutout.
4) Is the Marks USA i-Qwik Lite keypad lock fire rated for a labeled door?
Yes. The i-Qwik Lite lock body carries a 3-hour UL fire rating and the product is ANSI/BHMA certified and UL Listed, which is what a stairwell, corridor, or tenant separation door on a labeled opening needs from the lock. Note the lock is a commercial-duty product, not residential-grade hardware.
5) I need a keypad lock but my doors are 1-5/8 inch. What should I use instead of the i-Qwik Lite?
Not this one. The i-Qwik Lite is a 1-3/4 inch door lock only, with no adjustment for a thinner leaf. For 1-5/8 inch doors, the Alarm Lock Trilogy T2 DL2700 covers 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inches and is IC/SFIC compatible with 100 user codes, and the Alarm Lock DL5200 is a double-sided keypad lock over the same 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch range if you need code entry on both sides of the opening.
6) What is the closest equivalent to the Marks USA i-Qwik Lite keypad lockset from another manufacturer?
The TownSteel XCE-2000 Series is the nearest match in intent: a Grade 1 electronic cylindrical lockset with keypad entry, fitting doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. The i-Qwik Lite is keypad-read as well and is built for 1-3/4 inch doors with a 2-3/4 inch backset and a 4-7/8 inch ASA strike. Both are standalone keypad units for commercial openings, so the deciding factor is usually door thickness range and which cylinder prep you are matching.
7) What keypad lock works on a thinner door than 1-3/4 inch?
The i-Qwik Lite is built for a 1-3/4 inch door. For a thinner leaf, the Alarm Lock Trilogy T2 DL2700 covers 1-5/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch and is a Grade 1 standalone electronic cylindrical entrance lock with a digital keypad, 100 user codes and IC/SFIC compatibility. The Lockey E985 electronic keypad lever lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. Both keep keypad entry while reaching openings the i-Qwik Lite's fixed 1-3/4 inch prep does not.
8) I need an access controlled opening tied to a panel, not a standalone code lock. What replaces the i-Qwik Lite?
The i-Qwik Lite is a standalone battery unit that supports a two-wire remote release for tying into access control. If the opening is fully panel-driven, the SDC Electra 7200 Series is a solenoid controlled cylindrical lock running dual voltage 12/24VDC for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch - it takes its unlock command from the system rather than from a code at the door. The SDC E75 Series is the battery-powered keypad alternative in the same family, covering 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/8 inch.
9) I already use small format interchangeable cores. Which keypad locks accept SFIC besides the i-Qwik Lite?
The i-Qwik Lite is supplied for Schlage Full Size IC less core, so you key it with the cores you already stock. The Alarm Lock Trilogy T2 DL2700 is a Grade 1 standalone electronic cylindrical entrance lock with a digital keypad and IC/SFIC compatibility. The BEST 9KZ EZ Series is an electronic keypad cylindrical lock with a key override function. The Schlage CO-100 is offered with cylinder options. Confirm the core format matches your keyway before ordering.
10) Do I need to specify handing when ordering the i-Qwik Lite keypad lockset?
No. Handing is field-reversible on the i-Qwik Lite, so one lock covers left hand and right hand openings with no extra parts and no separate part number. For a property manager stocking spares across a building, that means one lock on the shelf instead of two.
11) How many users can the Marks USA i-Qwik Lite hold, and how long do the batteries last?
Up to 160 individual user codes, plus temporary codes for contractors, cleaners, or short-term tenants who should lose access on their own. Power is four AA batteries, rated up to 95,000 operations, with an audible low battery alert before it strands anyone. For a mid-size office or multi-tenant building that is enough code capacity to give every occupant their own credential rather than sharing one door code. If you need an audit trail of who entered and when, the Alarm Lock T3 DL3200 Series carries that feature.
12) Can the i-Qwik Lite be released from a front desk or tied into an access control system?
It supports a two-wire remote release, so a receptionist button, an intercom, or an access control output can unlock the door without anyone touching the keypad. Cablegard wire protection covers the internal wiring through the door so the harness is not the weak point during install. If you want a fully powered lock run off a panel rather than a standalone with remote release, the SDC Electra 7200 Series is a solenoid controlled cylindrical lock on 12/24VDC.
13) What is the difference between the Marks USA i-Qwik Lite and a Schlage or TownSteel electronic keypad lock?
They split on how access is managed and what the door needs. The i-Qwik Lite is a standalone keypad with 160 codes, key override through a Schlage full size IC, and a two-wire remote release, on a 1-3/4 inch door. The Schlage CO-100 Series is a standalone keypad in privacy function on 1-3/4 inch doors. The TownSteel XCE-2000 Series is a classroom-function keypad lock covering 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors, and the FCE-2000 Series swaps the keypad for RFID credentials. If the building runs on cards or phones rather than PINs, the Schlage NDEB ENGAGE Series is Bluetooth and mobile enabled for 1-5/8 to 2 inch doors.
14) Is there a keypad lock that controls both sides of the door like the i-Qwik Lite?
The Alarm Lock DL5200 is a double-sided electronic cylindrical lock with 100 user capacity and battery operation, fitting doors 1-5/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch - use it when a code is required to pass in either direction, such as a secured stair or a controlled corridor. The i-Qwik Lite is a keypad entry lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors carrying up to 160 user codes with key override.
15) Is there a keyless lock that does not need batteries as an alternative to the i-Qwik Lite?
Yes. The i-Qwik Lite runs on four AA batteries and ships with two keys for override. If you want to remove the battery from the maintenance cycle entirely, the Lockey 1600 is a heavy duty mechanical keyless knob lock with an adjustable backset for doors 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Lockey 2830 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless knob lock with an auto-locking passage function over the same 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch range. Both are pushbutton mechanical, so they give code entry without user code management, audit capability, or remote release.
16) Which electronic lock should I use for a classroom door instead of the i-Qwik Lite?
For a classroom opening, TownSteel builds the function in: the XCE-9000 Series is an electronic classroom intruder cylindrical lockset with keypad for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch, and the FCE-4000 Series is an RFID electronic intruder classroom cylindrical lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors, both Grade 1 heavy duty. The Schlage XE360M is a Grade 1 wireless tubular lock with classroom/storeroom function and an offline push button mode for 1-3/4 inch doors. The i-Qwik Lite is a keypad entry unit with two-wire remote release and key override rather than a dedicated classroom intruder function.
17) What is the difference between the i-Qwik Lite and a card or mobile credential lock like the Schlage NDEB?
The i-Qwik Lite reads a keypad - a 16-digit tactile metal keypad holding up to 160 user codes, with a 1-1/8 inch mortise cylinder for key override. The Schlage NDEB is a Grade 1 ENGAGE Series wireless cylindrical lock using 2.4 GHz Bluetooth Low Energy, mobile enabled, with storeroom, office, privacy and apartment functions for doors 1-5/8 inch to 2 inch. The TownSteel FCE-2000 is a Grade 1 standalone motorized cylindrical lockset with RFID for 1-3/4 inch doors. Choose by credential: a code the tenant can be told over the phone, versus a card or phone that has to be issued.
18) Does an Alarm Lock Trilogy DL3075 do the same job as the i-Qwik Lite?
They overlap but are not the same tool. The Alarm Lock T3 DL3075 is a Grade 1 electronic cylindrical lock with keypad access and an audit trail, so it records who entered and when. The i-Qwik Lite manages up to 160 user codes plus temporary codes with audible and visible entry indicators and a double code entry mode, and adds a two-wire remote release. If the facility has to produce an entry record, the DL3075 audit trail is the deciding feature; if it needs weatherproof keypad entry with key override on a 1-3/4 inch door, the i-Qwik Lite is the closer fit.
19) Can I use a Dorma C150 or Stanley QCL150 in place of the i-Qwik Lite?
Only if you are giving up keyless entry. The Dorma C150 is a Grade 1 heavy-duty cylindrical lock in entry/office function for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Stanley QCL150 is an entrance lever with a Sierra bent lever, less cylinder, square 2-3/4 inch backset latch and a 4-7/8 inch by 1-1/4 inch ASA strike. Both are key-operated mechanical locksets with no keypad. The i-Qwik Lite is an electronic keypad unit, so these match the door prep and strike but not the access method.
20) Is the Kwikset SmartCode 912TNL an alternative to the i-Qwik Lite for an apartment building?
They serve different sides of the building. The Kwikset 912TNL ZW500 SmartCode is an electronic Tustin lever with Z-Wave technology, keyed one side, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The i-Qwik Lite is a commercial lockset with a Grade 1 lock body carrying a 3-hour UL fire rating, weatherproof construction and a 4-7/8 inch ASA strike. For a rated corridor or exterior door in a multi-tenant property the fire rating and weatherproofing decide it; for an interior unit door on a Z-Wave hub, the Kwikset is the one that talks to the system.
21) What looks like a substitute for the i-Qwik Lite but will not work on a keyed entry opening?
Watch the function. The Dorma C501 is a single dummy trim keyless lever lockset and the Orca OCL2170 is a Grade 2 half dummy lever - dummy trim has no latch at all and is pull-only. The Cal-Royal CAL30 is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty passage lock and the Orca OCL210 is a Grade 2 passage lockset, both of which are always unlocked. None of these secures an opening. The i-Qwik Lite is a keypad entry lockset with a 1/2 inch throw auxiliary latch and key override.
22) What finish does the i-Qwik Lite keypad entry lockset come in?
Satin chrome, US26D. That is the single finish offered, and it is the standard commercial finish, so it will sit alongside existing US26D levers, closers, and exit hardware in most offices, schools, and healthcare corridors without looking mismatched. If your building is standardized on a bronze or brass finish, this lock will not match it.
23) What is a Bluetooth alternative to a keypad lock for a small office?
The CENTRIOS CEB100 Series is a Grade 1 smart Bluetooth cylindrical lock in privacy function, credentialed from a phone rather than a code at the door. The Accentra nexTouch NTB613 is a Grade 1 cylindrical keypad lock with pushbutton entry if you prefer to stay with codes. The i-Qwik Lite sits in the code camp as well, with a 16-digit tactile metal keypad, 160 user codes and temporary user codes for contractors and turnover.
