Schlage D40S PLY 612 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does a Schlage D40S privacy knob need to be handed, or is it reversible?
No handing to specify. The D40S Plymouth privacy set is non-handed, so one part number goes on a left or right hand door either way. Nothing to reverse in the field and nothing to state on the order.
2) How does the Schlage D40S bathroom knob unlock in an emergency?
Push button inside locks it. From the corridor side it opens with a small screwdriver in the outside knob face, which is what you want on a bathroom or bedroom where somebody can collapse behind the door. The button releases when the inside knob is turned or the door is closed, and the inside knob is always free for immediate egress.
3) Will a Schlage D40S drop into the strike and latch prep already in my door?
The D40S ships with an ANSI strike, 1-1/4 x 4-7/8 inch, and a spring latch (unguarded). If your frame already has the standard ASA 4-7/8 inch strike cutout, the strike drops straight in. On a 2-3/4 inch backset bore the lock lines up with existing prep. Frames prepped for a smaller T-strike will need the strike pocket changed or a T-strike ordered instead.
4) Can I put a passage knob on a bathroom door instead of a privacy set?
No, a passage knob has no locking mechanism. The Corbin Russwin CK4310 is a Grade 1 non-keyed passage/closet cylindrical knob lock for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors and the Falcon X101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage knobset for 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors; both latch the door but neither secures it. The Schlage D40S Plymouth knob is the privacy/bed/bath function, with push-button locking that releases when the inside knob is turned or the door is closed. Use passage for hall and closet openings and privacy for bedrooms and baths.
5) What should I use on a door 2 inches thick if a privacy knob only covers up to 1-3/4 inch?
The Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, which reaches thicker slabs than the Grade 2 and Grade 3 privacy knobs that stop at 1-3/4 inch, such as the Dexter C2000 privacy knob and the Cal-Royal BER20. The Schlage D40S Plymouth knob is published for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch as standard on knob and decorative designs. So for a 2 inch bedroom or bath door, the D40S and the Deltana 6112 both reach it in privacy/bed/bath function.
6) Can I use a Schlage D40S privacy knob on a fire rated door?
The standard latch on the D40S is a spring latch, unguarded. Schlage does produce a fire door latch for D Series, so on a labeled opening that is the latch to specify rather than the standard one. Bear in mind privacy function is generally not what you want on a rated corridor door in the first place.
7) Is the Schlage D40S ANSI F76, and what does F76 mean for a bathroom door?
F76 is the ANSI/BHMA function code for a privacy bed and bath lock, and that is what the D40S is. It carries no keyway at all, so it can't be master keyed into a building system. If you need the janitor or maintenance staff to get in with a key rather than a screwdriver, F76 is the wrong function and you want a keyed cylindrical instead.
8) Is a Schlage D40S heavy enough for apartment bathrooms and dorm rooms, or should I use a residential knob?
The D Series is a commercial, heavy duty, Grade 1 cylindrical lock, which is the tier you want for multi-family and institutional bathroom doors that get cycled hard. Residential-tier privacy knobs are built for a single-family door. If the opening is genuinely residential, the Schlage F500 Plymouth combo pack is the residential-series equivalent in the same Plymouth design.
9) What other Grade 2 privacy knob locks work as a substitute for a Schlage D40S?
The closest like-for-like is the Dexter C2000 Series privacy cylindrical ball knob, Grade 2, non-keyed, for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. Cal-Royal BER20 and the Pamex FTF Baron privacy knob are both Grade 3 privacy knobs on the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch range, so they are a step down in duty rating rather than a straight swap. Note the Dexter and the Grade 3 options stop at 1-3/4 inch; the D40S goes to 2 inch, so on a thick door those substitutes don't work.
10) Can I get a Schlage D40S in a 2-3/8 inch backset for a residential door?
The set is furnished with a 2-3/4 inch backset. Schlage D Series latches are also produced in 2-3/8 inch and 3 inch backsets, with a 5 inch backset link, so a shallower bore can be accommodated by specifying the latch. If your existing doors are bored at 2-3/8 inch, that is the latch to call out.
11) I need a knob for a door that never locks, just holds shut. Is a Schlage D40S right?
No. The D40S has a push button and will lock, which is wrong for a closet or storage door where someone can shut themselves out. For a latching, never-locking knob look at the Arrow MK01 or RK01 passage sets (Grade 2, 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors) or the Falcon W101 Grade 2 passage knob with a 2-3/4 inch backset, which matches the same bore prep.
12) Is a dummy knob the same as a privacy knob?
No. A dummy knob is a fixed pull with no latch at all. The BEST 6K Series single dummy trim is a Grade 2 medium duty non-keyed dummy cylindrical knob, the Cal-Royal BA40 is a dummy knob cylindrical lock for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Omnia 434/0 is a solid brass egg-shaped single dummy lockset. None of them latch or lock. The Schlage D40S Plymouth knob is a privacy/bed/bath cylindrical lock with a spring latch and an ASA strike, so it holds the door closed and locks it. Dummy trim belongs on inactive leaves and closet fronts, not on a bath door.
13) Does a keyless combination knob lock work as a substitute for a privacy bath lock?
Not for a bed or bath opening. The Lockey 3830 is a mechanical keyless combination knob lock with an auto-locking passage function for doors 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch, so entry is controlled by a code from the outside. The Schlage D40S Plymouth knob is the privacy/bed/bath function: the button is set from inside, the outside can be released with a small screwdriver in an emergency, and the inside knob is always free for immediate egress. Where an occupant needs to secure themselves briefly and staff need a tool release, the privacy function is the one that does that job; the Lockey 3830 fits a door where access is controlled by code.
14) Is the Schlage D40S electronic or does it need any wiring?
Purely mechanical. No wiring, no power, no credential reader. It's a cylindrical knob lock with a push button, so install is a bore, a latch, a strike, and two screws.
