Orca Hardware ORC-OCL240PR-26D-CAP – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Orca OCL240 privacy lockset fit a 1-3/8 inch door, or is it only for 1-3/4 inch commercial doors?
The OCL240 adjusts to fit door thickness from 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, so it covers both the older 1-3/8 inch interior doors you find in existing multi-family stock and standard 1-3/4 inch commercial doors. No separate part number for the thinner door, the same lockset adjusts. If your opening is thicker than 1-3/4 inches, look at a Cal-Royal CAL20 privacy lock instead, which is rated 1-3/8 to 2 inches.
2) What backset does the Orca OCL240 come with, and can I get it for a 2-3/8 inch bore?
Standard build is a 2-3/4 inch backset, which is the usual commercial spacing. A 2-3/8 inch backset is offered as an option, so if you are working on existing residential-style prep in an apartment building, specify it on the order. Those are the two common backsets you will measure from the door edge to the center of the bore.
3) Does the Orca OCL240 privacy lock need to be handed when I order it?
Handing is not a factor. The OCL240 is non-handed and does not require field disassembly to rehang it, so one lockset works on a left or right hand door. That matters for a property manager buying a case of them for mixed openings, there is no wrong-hand return.
4) Will the Orca OCL240 drop into my existing ASA strike prep?
It ships with an ASA strike, ANSI 1-1/4 x 4-7/8 inches, 1-1/4 inch lip, square corner. If your frame is already cut for a standard ANSI 4-7/8 inch strike, which most hollow metal commercial frames are, the supplied strike drops straight in. Frames prepped only for a small 1-1/8 x 2-3/4 inch T-strike will need the mortise opened up.
5) Is the Orca OCL240 privacy lockset rated for a fire door?
The OCL240 is UL listed for a 3 hour A label opening, so it can go on a fire rated door assembly up to that rating. It also meets ANSI/BHMA A156.2, Series 4000, Grade 2 test requirements for key-in-lever locksets.
6) I need a matching entry lock for the unit door to go with these privacy locks. What pairs with the Orca OCL240?
The OCL240 has no cylinder, so the entry door needs a separate keyed lockset. Cylindrical entry levers ZenSupply stocks that suit the same commercial openings include the Stanley QCL150 Grade 2 entry lever, which uses the same 2-3/4 inch backset and 4-7/8 x 1-1/4 inch ASA strike as the OCL240, and the Dorma C853 entry keyed single cylinder lever, Grade 1, for 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch doors. The Stanley matches the OCL240 prep exactly, so one door template covers both.
7) What should I use on a closet or corridor door instead of a privacy lockset?
A privacy lock like the OCL240 has an inside push or turn button and is meant for bedroom and bathroom doors. A closet, hall, or corridor door that never needs to lock takes a passage function instead. The Cal-Royal CAL30 is a Grade 1 passage lockset covering doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Marks USA 195N is a Grade 1 passage lever in the Survivor series with an ADA compliant American lever. The Dorma CL701 is a Grade 2 non-keyed passage lever in the CL700 series.
8) What is the closest equivalent to the Orca OCL240 privacy lockset from another brand?
The Cal-Royal CAL20 is the nearest match in function. Both are cylindrical privacy/bed/bath locksets: the OCL240 is a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock, and the CAL20 is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty privacy lock from the Calypso series. The CAL20 fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick, while the OCL240 adjusts from 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, so the CAL20 covers thicker doors. Both are mechanical, non-keyed privacy functions for bedroom and bathroom openings.
9) The door is thicker than 1-3/4 inches - what privacy lever works instead of the Orca OCL240?
The OCL240 adjusts to fit door thickness from 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, so a thicker leaf needs a different lock. The Cal-Royal CAL20 privacy lock is rated for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick and carries the same privacy/bed/bath function, making it the direct swap for a 2 inch door. For a keyed opening on an even thicker door, the Dorma C853 entry lockset covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch.
10) Does a privacy lockset like the Orca OCL240 take a key?
No. The OCL240 is a non-keyed privacy/bed/bath lockset - it locks from the inside only and there is no cylinder to key. If the opening needs to be secured with a key from the outside, that is an entrance or storeroom function instead: the Dorma C853 is a Grade 1 single cylinder keyed entry lever, the Marks USA 195RAB is a Grade 1 entry clutched lever supplied less core, and the Marks USA 175RF is a Grade 2 storeroom clutched lever prepped for a small format interchangeable core.
11) Which lever locksets use the same 2-3/4 inch backset and 4-7/8 inch ASA strike as the Orca OCL240?
The OCL240 ships standard with a 2-3/4 inch backset and an ANSI ASA strike measuring 1-1/4 inch by 4-7/8 inch with a 1-1/4 inch lip and square corners. The Stanley Security QCL150 entry lever uses the same 2-3/4 inch backset latch and a 4-7/8 inch by 1-1/4 inch ASA strike, and the Marks USA 175RF storeroom lever also uses a 2-3/4 inch backset with an ANSI strike. Any of these drop into the same door and frame prep. The Marks USA 110AB, by contrast, is a 2-3/8 inch backset.
12) Is a Grade 2 privacy lock heavy duty enough for apartment bathrooms and office restrooms?
Grade 2, medium duty, and built for commercial use in office buildings, shopping centers, mixed use buildings and multi-family residences. For a bedroom or bathroom door in an apartment or a private office, that is the normal specification. If you are putting it on a high traffic public restroom in a school or transit facility, a Grade 1 privacy lock like the Cal-Royal CAL20 is the heavier option.
13) Do the Orca OCL240 levers meet ADA requirements?
Yes. Every lever design on the OCL240 is solid with no inserts and meets federal ADA and state disability requirements. Both lever styles offered, Admiral and Captain, are covered by that. For an accessible unit or a public corridor door where a knob will not pass inspection, this is the right style of trim.
14) Will the Orca OCL240 rose cover the old holes left by the lockset I am replacing?
The rose is 3-5/8 inches in diameter, which is on the larger side for a cylindrical lockset and will hide scuffing and minor wear around a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore. It will not cover a much larger cut-out or an old mortise lock face. Trim is through-bolted, and individual heavy duty springs handle lever return so the lever will not sag over time.
15) Should I use a mechanical privacy lockset or an electronic privacy lock for apartment bathrooms?
For a bathroom or bedroom door, a mechanical privacy lock like the OCL240 is the straightforward answer. Nothing to power, nothing to program, no batteries in a hundred units. Electronic privacy locks such as the Schlage CO-100 or the Alarm Lock Trilogy 4100 exist for openings where you also need code-based access control or audit capability, and both carry Grade 1. If the door only needs to be locked from the inside by the occupant, the electronics buy you nothing.
16) What is the difference between a privacy lockset and a dummy trim lever?
A privacy lockset such as the OCL240 has a working latch and an inside locking button for bed and bath doors. A dummy trim has no latch and no locking mechanism at all - it is a fixed pull mounted to the face of the door, used on inactive leaves and closet fronts. The Dorma C501 is a single dummy trim keyless lever lockset for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Dorma CL701 is a Grade 2 single dummy non-keyed lever. Neither will latch a bathroom door.
17) Is there an electronic privacy lock that replaces a mechanical one like the Orca OCL240?
Yes. The OCL240 is a mechanical, non-electronic privacy lockset. Two keypad locks carry the same privacy/bed/bath function: the Alarm Lock Trilogy 4100 is a Grade 1 electronic cylindrical lock with privacy function and keypad, fitting doors 1-5/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch, and the Schlage CO-100 is a Grade 1 heavy duty standalone electronic cylindrical lock with privacy function and keypad, built for a 1-3/4 inch door. Both take batteries and code programming that a mechanical privacy lock does not require.
18) I need a heavier privacy lock than a Grade 2 for a high-traffic multi-family bathroom - what are the options?
The OCL240 is a medium duty Grade 2 privacy lockset meeting ANSI/BHMA A156.2. For a heavier specification with the same privacy/bed/bath function, the Cal-Royal CAL20 is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty privacy lock, and the Schlage CO-100 is a Grade 1 heavy duty privacy lock with an electronic keypad. The CAL20 stays mechanical, so it matches the OCL240 in operation while moving up a grade.
19) Will a knob lockset work in place of the Orca OCL240 lever?
Functionally a knob can hold the same opening, but the OCL240 lever designs are solid and meet federal ADA and state disability requirements, which a round knob does not. Knob options in the same class include the Marks USA 110AB, a Grade 2 entry knob lockset with a round knob and 2-3/8 inch backset, and the Lockey 1600 heavy duty mechanical keyless knob lock with adjustable backset for doors 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch. If the opening is on an accessible route, the lever is the one that satisfies the requirement.
20) What locks a classroom door instead of a privacy lockset?
A privacy lock such as the OCL240 secures from the inside only and is intended for bed and bath openings, not classrooms. Classroom function options include the TownSteel XCE-2000, a Grade 1 heavy duty electronic cylindrical lockset with keypad for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch, and the TownSteel FCE-2000, a Grade 1 heavy duty standalone motorized cylindrical lockset with RFID for a 1-3/4 inch door. For classroom intruder function, the TownSteel XCE-9000 is a Grade 1 electronic classroom intruder lockset with keypad.
21) Is the Dorma C150 a substitute for the Orca OCL240?
No. The C150 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical lock with an entry/office function in the C100 series, covering doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. It is a keyed lock for an office or entrance opening. The OCL240 is a non-keyed privacy/bed/bath lockset for a bathroom or bedroom door. The two are both cylindrical locks that share a door prep, but they do different jobs and are not interchangeable on the same opening.
22) What lever styles and finishes can I get the Orca OCL240 in?
Two lever styles, Admiral and Captain, each available in 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed and 626 brushed chrome. That is the full range, four combinations. If you are standardizing a building, 626 is the common commercial finish and 613 is the darker bronze look for residential-feeling corridors. Pick one lever style across the property so replacement parts stay interchangeable.
