Schlage Residential FC21DMPCAM622ALXCAM – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How does the Schlage FC21 Dempsey lever work as both a passage and a privacy lock?
The FC21 ships set up as passage, so the lever and knob always turn and there is no locking. To make it a privacy set, you insert the privacy pushbutton on the interior side. Once converted, it locks for a bedroom or bath, and it can still be opened from outside with a small emergency unlock tool. That means one part number can cover both hall/closet doors and bedroom doors in the same unit.
2) Will the Schlage FC21 fit a 1-3/8 inch interior door, or does it need a 1-3/4 inch door?
Both work. The FC21 covers 1-3/8 inch through 1-3/4 inch doors, which is the full range of common residential interior doors. No spacer kit or thickness option to specify.
3) Do I have to know my backset before ordering this Schlage lever set?
No. The FC21 comes with a dual backset latch that adjusts to either 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches, the two backsets used on residential doors. The supplied 16-600 spring latch also converts between a round faceplate and a drive-in, so it suits either a prepped faceplate mortise or a plain bored hole.
4) Will this Schlage FC21 latch into the strike plate already in my door frame?
Usually yes on a residential frame. The set ships with a 10-027 full lip radius strike measuring 2-1/4 by 1-5/8 inches, and the latch has a 1/2 inch throw with a 1 inch by 2-1/4 inch faceplate on a 1/4 inch radius corner and a 1 inch housing diameter. If your existing strike is a radius corner of that size, the new latch drops straight in. If your frame has a square corner strike, swap in the strike that comes in the box.
5) Is the Schlage FC21 keyed, and can I key it to my other doors?
No, the FC21 is a non-keyed set. There is no cylinder and no key, only passage operation with the option to convert to privacy with the pushbutton. For a door that has to be keyed, you need a keyed entry or storeroom lock instead.
6) My door is 2 inches thick. Will the Schlage FC21 work?
No. The FC21 tops out at 1-3/4 inch doors. For a thicker slab, look at a lock rated further up, such as the Hager 2510 passage lever at 1-3/8 to 2 inches or the Falcon K101 at 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches.
7) If a bedroom or bath door needs a dedicated privacy lever instead of a convertible passage lock, what works?
The Schlage FC21 ships as passage by default and converts to privacy with an interior pushbutton. If a dedicated privacy set is preferred, the Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton privacy lever set is a Grade 3 privacy/bed/bath lock covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 2540 is a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock with the Withnell lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
8) What is a comparable passage lever for a residential interior door if the Schlage FC21 Dempsey lever and Alexandria glass knob combination is not wanted?
The Schlage FC21 is a non-keyed Grade 2 cylindrical passage/privacy lock for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. For a similar residential passage lever, the Kwikset 200BRNL RDT Breton passage lever set is Grade 3 with the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range. The Kwikset is a lever on both sides rather than a lever and knob pairing.
9) For a multi-family or commercial corridor door, what is a heavier-duty alternative to the Schlage FC21?
The FC21 is a residential Grade 2 lockset. Where a heavier specification is called for, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage cylindrical lock with non-handed levers, fire rated, covering 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Dexter C1000 passage is a Grade 1 clutching non-keyed passage lever for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
10) What passage lever should be used on a door thicker than 1-3/4 inches?
The Schlage FC21 covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, so a thicker door needs a different set. The Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage cylindrical lever with Withnell design covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inches, the Arrow GL01 Grade 2 Sierra lever passage lock covers 1-3/4 inch to 2 inches, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 Grade 1 vandal resistant passage lever covers 1-3/4 inch to 2 inches.
11) What should be used instead of the Schlage FC21 on a door that needs to lock with a key?
The FC21 is non-keyed, with no cylinder. For a keyed opening, the Cal-Royal AG00 is a Grade 2 entrance lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different on a 2-3/8 inch backset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt over the same door range, and the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial entry lock for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
12) Does the Schlage FC21 need to be ordered left hand or right hand?
It doesn't. The FC21 is non-handed, so the same unit works on a left or right swinging door. For a property manager buying several at once, that means one line item covers every opening regardless of swing.
13) What is the difference between the Dempsey lever and the Alexandria knob on this Schlage set?
You get one of each on the same door. The FC21 pairs the contemporary Dempsey lever on one side with the Alexandria glass knob on the other, so you can put the lever where you want easy grip and the glass knob on the side facing the room you want to dress up.
14) Can I pick different rose styles for the lever and the knob on the Schlage FC21?
Yes, they're chosen independently. Each side takes Camelot, Century or Collins rose, and you can mix them, for example a Camelot rose behind the Dempsey lever with a Collins rose behind the Alexandria knob. All combinations are offered in 622 Matte Black.
15) Is a Grade 2 residential lever strong enough for apartment turnover doors?
For interior bedroom, bath, closet and hall doors in multi-family units, yes. The FC21 is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.2-2017 Grade 2 and built on a stainless steel substrate. It is a residential lock, so for a corridor or common area door taking commercial traffic look at a Grade 1 cylindrical passage lock such as the Falcon K101 or the Dexter C1000 passage instead.
16) I need a straight passage lever with no privacy option. What else could I use instead of the Schlage FC21?
If you never want a lock button on the door, a dedicated passage set is simpler. The Kwikset 200BRNL Breton is a Grade 3 passage lever covering the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door range. Bravura's Atlanta, Orlando and Tampa passage leversets are Grade 2. On the commercial side, the Falcon B101 and Accentra 5301LN Augusta are Grade 2 cylindrical passage levers. The FC21 is worth keeping if you want the flexibility to add privacy later without buying a second lock.
17) Does the Schlage FC21 work as a keypad or code-entry lock?
No, the FC21 is a mechanical non-electronic lockset. For code entry on a similar opening, the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock, the Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with passage function for 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and Emtek offers a Classic keypad leverset.
18) Is a dummy lever a substitute for the Schlage FC21?
No. The FC21 is a functioning cylindrical lockset with a latch and a passage/privacy function. Dummy trim such as the BEST 7KC single dummy trim lever, the BEST 9K 1DT Grade 1 single dummy trim, or the Callan Bentley Grade 2 dummy lever is fixed trim with no latch, used on inactive leaves and closet doors that hold shut by other means.
19) What is a comparable Grade 2 passage leverset with a more traditional decorative look?
The Schlage FC21 pairs a Dempsey lever with an Alexandria glass knob. For other decorative Grade 2 passage sets, Bravura offers the Atlanta and Orlando with round trim and the Tampa with square trim, and the Bravura Miramar with round trim comes in a US4 satin brass finish. The Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever with 5048 rose is another passage option in that style.
20) Is there a simpler passage lever than the Schlage FC21 for a high-volume interior door package?
Yes. The FC21 is a Grade 2 residential set with a lever and glass knob pairing. For plainer Grade 2 passage levers, the Falcon B101 is a medium duty non-handed passage lever, the Accentra 5301LN Augusta and 4601LN are Grade 2 passage/closet cylindrical levers, and the Design Hardware J75 is a Grade 2 flat-lever passage set for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Callan Asheville is a Grade 3 passage leverset in satin nickel.
21) For a classroom or institutional door, is the Schlage FC21 the right lock?
No. The FC21 is a residential passage/privacy lock with no cylinder. Institutional openings are better served by the Dexter C1000 classroom or classroom security Grade 1 clutching keyed levers for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Cal-Royal AG03 classroom lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway on a 2-3/4 inch backset, or the Arrow MK33 Grade 2 asylum lock with a Schlage C keyway conventional cylinder.
