Omnia 60231/B3 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What lock functions does the Omnia 60231 come in, and which one do I need for a tenant entry door?
Seven functions across the 60231 range: Standard with rocker, Double Cylinder with rocker, Entry less rocker, Double Cylinder less rocker, Privacy, Passage, Single Dummy and Pair Dummy. For a tenant or office entry that locks from outside with a key, take Entry or Standard. Double Cylinder needs a key on both sides, which is the choice on a glass door where someone could reach through, but check your local egress code before you put one on an exit path. Passage never locks (corridor and closet doors), Privacy is the bathroom function, and the dummies are pull only with no latch at all.
2) I need a keyless code lock on a narrow stile door instead of a keyed lever. What are my options?
The 60231 is a keyed mortise lockset, so if you want pushbutton entry with no keys to issue, look at the Lockey mechanical range instead. The Lockey 2985 is the closest match in form, a narrow stile pushbutton lever lock with a 1-1/8 inch backset, fitting doors 1-1/8 to 2 inches thick. The Lockey 2930 is the same idea with a knob, and the Lockey 2900 is a narrow stile mechanical deadbolt if you only need the bolt and are keeping existing door pulls. All three are mechanical, so no wiring and no power.
3) Can the Lockey 2900 deadbolt replace an Omnia 60231 lever lockset?
No. The Lockey 2900 is a narrow stile mechanical deadbolt with pushbutton entry, for doors 1-1/8 to 2 inch thick; its function is deadbolt only, so it secures the door but provides no lever or latch to operate it. The Omnia 60231 is a lever lockset whose models include Passage and Privacy as well as keyed Entry and Double Cylinder, meaning it carries the operating trim for the opening. The 2900 is a companion to door operating hardware or a standalone secondary lock, not a one-for-one swap for a lever lockset.
4) What does "with rocker" versus "less rocker" mean on the Omnia 60231?
The rocker is the thumbturn style inside actuator. With rocker gives you an inside turn piece to throw the lock without a key. Less rocker deletes it: on the Entry function the inside is free egress by lever, and on the Double Cylinder less rocker version you're keying from both faces. Order less rocker where you don't want a turn piece on the interior face, with rocker where the occupant needs to secure the door from inside by hand.
5) Is the Omnia 60231 lever lockset solid brass, and what finishes can I get?
Solid brass, in two finishes: Polished Brass and Shaded Bronze. Both finishes are offered across every function in the range, so you can run one look through an entire building and still mix entry, privacy, passage and dummy trim on different openings. The Ornate Collection styling is the decorative one in the line, which is why it turns up in hotel, retail and upscale office fitouts rather than back of house.
6) What is the difference between a narrow stile mortise lockset like the Omnia 60231 and a standard bored cylindrical lock?
A bored lock needs a 2-1/8 inch cross bore through the face of the door, which a narrow stile aluminum or glass door doesn't have room for. The 60231 is a mortise lock: the body drops into a pocket cut in the edge of the stile, so all the mechanism lives inside a stile only a couple of inches wide. That's the whole reason for the type. On a solid wood or hollow metal door with a normal 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, you'd use a cylindrical or wide stile mortise lock instead, not this.
7) Can I use the Omnia 60231 on a pair of doors and match the inactive leaf?
Yes. The 60231 range includes a Pair Dummy as well as a Single Dummy, both in Polished Brass and Shaded Bronze. Put a keyed or passage function on the active leaf and the Pair Dummy on the inactive one and the trim reads identically across the opening. The dummy has no latch, so it's surface applied for pull only.
8) What is a simpler narrow stile lock than a full mortise lever lockset for a storage or utility door?
The Lockey 2930 is a narrow stile mechanical pushbutton lock with a knob for doors 1-1/8 to 2 inch thick, and the Lockey 2900 is a narrow stile mechanical pushbutton deadbolt across the same 1-1/8 to 2 inch range. Both are code-operated and single-function, so there is no keying program to maintain on the opening. The Omnia 60231 mortise lever lockset is the choice where the door needs lever operation and a keyed cylinder, or where Privacy and Passage functions have to match the same trim.
9) Is a pushbutton knob lock an equivalent swap for a narrow stile lever lockset?
Not in operation. The Lockey 2930 is a narrow stile mechanical pushbutton lock with a knob, so the user turns a knob after entering a code, while the Omnia 60231 is a solid brass lever lockset. Facilities that specify lever trim for accessibility on occupied openings will not accept a knob in that position. Where keyless operation is the requirement but lever trim must stay, the Lockey 2985 is the narrow stile pushbutton lock with a lever.
10) Is the Omnia 60231 lockset rated for commercial traffic or is it residential trim?
Commercial. Omnia lists the 60231 as a commercial lockset, and it's specified into office buildings, schools, healthcare, retail, warehouses, multi-tenant residential and municipal buildings. Solid brass through the working parts is what carries it there. If you're a property manager standardizing on one look across a portfolio, this is a lever product, so it also suits openings where a knob would be a problem for accessibility.
