Sargent DL-2001 26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the Sargent DL-2001 latch used for?
The DL-2001 is a replacement latch bolt for Sargent DL Series locksets, built specifically for the DLU15 passage function. Passage means no locking: the latch retracts from either side whenever the lever is turned, so it is a corridor or closet door part, not a privacy or keyed one. It lets you restore latch operation on an existing DL Series lockset instead of replacing the whole lock.
2) Can I use the Sargent DL-2001 to replace a latch on a keyed or privacy DL Series lock?
No. It is engineered for the DLU15 passage function, which has no locking mechanism. A privacy (push button) or keyed entry DL Series lock uses a latch matched to that function, so ordering the passage latch for one of those openings will leave you without the locking action you expect.
3) My door is bored for a 2-3/8 inch backset. Will the Sargent DL-2001 work?
No - the Sargent DL-2001 is engineered with a fixed 2-3/4 inch latch backset. For a 2-3/8 inch prep, the Kwikset 84290 is a square corner plainlatch at 2-3/8 inch backset, and the Deltana DLP23875 is adjustable to either 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch. Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore hole to confirm which prep you have.
4) My opening is a 3-hour fire rated door. Is the DL-2001 the right latch?
The Sargent DL-2001 is described as a commercial-grade 2-3/4 inch backset replacement latch for the DLU15 Passage Function. Where a UL fire-rated latch is being specified, the Kwikset 83521 RCAL plain latch is listed as UL 3 hour for BBL, KNL, CNL and PLL locksets, and the Kwikset 83518 RCAL adjustable square drive latch is also listed as UL 3 hour. Those Kwikset parts are residential-line latches, so confirm the lockset they are going into before ordering.
5) What passage latch can I use instead of the Sargent DL-2001 if the door is not a Sargent DL Series lockset?
The Sargent DL-2001 is built specifically as a replacement latch for the Sargent DLU15 Passage Function in the DL Series, so on a non-Sargent lockset a general-purpose tubular latch is the better route. The Deltana DLP23875 is a drive-in latch with an adjustable backset of 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch in a passage/privacy function, fitting doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. That adjustable backset lets one part cover both common commercial door preps, where the DL-2001 is fixed at a 2-3/4 inch backset.
6) I need a latch for a keyed entry lock, not a passage set. What should I order?
The Sargent DL-2001 serves the DLU15 Passage Function, which is a non-locking latch. For a keyed opening, the Deltana DLE23875 is a drive-in latch in an entry function for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. Match the latch function to the lockset function - a passage latch will not carry the deadlocking action an entry lock expects.
7) Is the Sargent DL-2001 a whole lockset or just the latch?
Just the latch. The DL-2001 is a single replacement latch bolt assembly, not a complete lock. Levers, roses, spindles and the strike are not part of it, so if the trim is also worn or the strike is damaged you need those separately.
8) I need a drive-in latch with an adjustable backset, not a fixed 2-3/4 inch one. What else is there?
The Sargent DL-2001 is fixed at 2-3/4 inches and is a DL Series service part. If you need one latch that covers either prep, the Deltana DLP23875 is a drive-in latch with an adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset in a passage/privacy function and fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. For an entry function in the same drive-in style, Deltana's DLE23875 covers the same 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door range. Neither is a Sargent part, so use them on their own hardware, not to service a DL Series lockset.
9) Is the Emtek 83228 pocket door privacy faceplate an alternative to the Sargent DL-2001?
No. The Sargent DL-2001 is the latch bolt itself for a DLU15 Passage Function lockset on a swinging door. The Emtek 83228 is a faceplate and screws for a tubular pocket door privacy latch with square corners - a trim and fastener kit for a sliding pocket door, not a latch mechanism. The two are not interchangeable.
10) Can I use the Emtek LC9-DBLTCH in place of the Sargent DL-2001?
No. The Emtek LC9-DBLTCH is a motorized deadbolt latch in the EMPowered series, intended for an electrified deadbolt. The Sargent DL-2001 is a mechanical passage latch for the DL Series DLU15 Passage Function, which has no locking action at all. Different function and different drive - they do not substitute for one another.
11) For a multi-family building where I want one latch part number across both door preps, what are my options?
The Sargent DL-2001 is a spec-matched 2-3/4 inch backset replacement for Sargent DL Series DLU15 Passage locksets, so on those doors it is the like-for-like part. If you are stocking a single latch across mixed openings with other lockset brands, the Deltana DLP23875 covers passage and privacy functions with an adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset and a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness range, which reduces the number of SKUs on the shelf.
12) What finish does the Sargent DL-2001 replacement latch come in?
One finish only: 26D, satin chromium plated over nickel. On the latch face and faceplate that reads as satin chrome, which matches the brushed chrome trim used on most commercial interior openings. If your other DL Series hardware is brass or bronze toned, the exposed faceplate will not match.
13) Is this Sargent latch suitable for high traffic commercial doors like schools and offices?
Yes, it is a commercial-rated part. Sargent lists the DL-2001 for commercial use and the typical applications include office buildings, schools, healthcare, retail, multi-tenant residential, government and industrial facilities. For a property manager standardizing corridor doors across a building, it is the DL Series passage latch to stock.
14) Is the latch handed? Do I need to specify left or right hand?
Handing is not a variable on the DL-2001. It ships in one configuration, 26D finish, with the 2-3/4 inch backset, so the only thing you confirm is that the lockset is a DL Series DLU15 passage function and the door is bored at 2-3/4 inches. On most tubular latches the bolt is reversible by rotation at install.
