Schlage Residential FC21DMPCAM622BRWCAM – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Schlage FC21 Dempsey x Broadway a passage lock or a privacy lock?
Both, depending on how you set it up. The FC21 ships as a passage set by default, and you insert the privacy pushbutton on the interior side to convert it to privacy. That makes it useful when you are buying for a mix of hall, closet, bedroom and bath openings and want one part number on the truck. If someone gets locked in, it opens from the outside with a small emergency unlock tool.
2) Will the Schlage FC21 lever fit a 1-3/8 inch interior door?
Yes. The FC21 covers 1-3/8 inch through 1-3/4 inch doors, so it handles both older interior slabs and standard 1-3/4 inch doors with no extra kit. Anything thicker than 1-3/4 inch is outside its range.
3) Do I have to know the backset before ordering the Schlage FC21?
No. The FC21 comes with a dual backset latch that adjusts to either a 2-3/8 inch or a 2-3/4 inch backset, which are the two standard bores you will find in residential doors. One part covers both, so you are not sorting stock by backset.
4) Will the FC21 latch work in my existing strike, or do I need to re-mortise the frame?
The latch is a 1 inch by 2-1/4 inch faceplate with 1/4 inch radius corners, 1 inch housing diameter and a 1/2 inch throw, and a circular drive-in collar is included. The supplied strike is a full lip radius strike, 1-5/8 inch by 2-1/4 inch. If your frame already has that common radius-corner strike prep, it drops in. Square-corner preps will need the frame filed or the existing square strike reused.
5) What is a commercial Grade 1 alternative to the Schlage FC21 Dempsey x Broadway passage lever for a high-traffic corridor door?
The FC21 is a Grade 2 residential cylindrical leverset in passage/privacy function. For heavy commercial traffic, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage cylindrical lock with non-handed levers, fire rated, and it covers doors from 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. The Falcon T101 is another Grade 1 heavy duty passage lever, and the Dexter C1000 passage is Grade 1 with clutching levers for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, which is the same door range the FC21 covers.
6) I only need a passage lever, not privacy. What is a simpler equivalent to the Schlage FC21?
The FC21 ships as passage by default and converts to privacy only when the pushbutton is inserted on the interior side, so if privacy is never needed you can use a straight passage lever instead. The Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 medium duty non-handed passage lever, the Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 passage/closet lever, and the Hager 2510 is a Grade 2 passage lever with the Withnell design for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
7) The FC21 does not fit my 2 inch thick door. What lever lock should I use instead?
The FC21 covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors only. For a 2 inch door in passage function, the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage/closet lever rated for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors and is fire rated, the Falcon K101 covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Arrow GL01 Grade 2 Sierra lever passage lock covers 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch.
8) Do I need to specify handing on the Schlage FC21 lever set?
No handing to call out. The FC21 is non-handed, so the same set works on a left or right hand door. The only thing you choose is which lever design goes on each side and the rose style.
9) What do the Dempsey and Broadway lever choices actually mean on this Schlage set?
You are getting two different lever styles on one lock, Dempsey on one face and Broadway on the other, so a hallway side and a room side can look different. Rose design is specified separately for each lever, in Camelot, Century or Collins, and all combinations are offered in 622 Matte Black.
10) Is a Grade 2 residential lock like the Schlage FC21 enough for apartment turnovers?
For interior bedroom, bath and closet doors in multifamily units it is the normal spec. The FC21 is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.2-2017 Grade 2 and A156.39-2015 Residential Grade AAA, with a stainless steel substrate. For corridor and entry openings that see commercial traffic, step up to a Grade 1 cylindrical passage set such as the Falcon K101 or the Dexter C1000 passage lever.
11) Can I use the Schlage FC21 on a 90 minute fire rated door?
A UL Listed version for 90 minute fire door applications is available, so the FC21 can be specified where that is required. If you are working a commercial fire rated opening and want a Grade 1 passage set instead, the Falcon K101 and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 are both listed with a fire rating in our data.
12) What is a good alternative if I need a separate passage and a separate privacy lever rather than a convertible one?
Buying the functions separately is the other way to go. The Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever and the 300BRNL Breton privacy lever are Grade 3 sets that both cover 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same thickness range the FC21 handles. On the Grade 2 side, the Hager 2510 passage lever spans 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors. The advantage of the FC21 is stocking one item and deciding passage or privacy at install.
13) I need a keyed lock, not the non-keyed FC21. What are the options on the same style of door?
The FC21 is non-keyed, passage with optional privacy. For a keyed opening, the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 cylindrical entry lock for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, the Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom lock, and the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt over the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door range the FC21 uses.
14) Is a dummy lever a substitute for the Schlage FC21?
No. The FC21 is a working cylindrical lockset with a latch and a privacy pushbutton option. A dummy trim is a fixed pull with no latch, used on inactive or closet door leaves. If that is what the opening needs, the BEST 7KC single dummy trim is Grade 2 medium duty, the BEST 9K 1DT is Grade 1 heavy duty, and Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy levers come in left hand and right hand versions.
15) What is the closest residential-grade alternative to the Schlage FC21 for a bedroom or bath door?
The FC21 is Grade 2 and covers both passage and privacy from one lock. If you want dedicated functions in a residential Grade 3 line, the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton is a privacy lever for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors and the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton is the matching passage lever over the same door range, so bedroom and hall doors can be trimmed alike.
16) Does the Arrow MK02 privacy knob work as a replacement for the FC21?
Only if the opening suits a knob and a thicker door. The FC21 is a lever set for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors that is passage by default with a privacy pushbutton conversion. The Arrow MK02-TA is a privacy-only Tudor knob, fire rated, for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, so it is not a lever-for-lever swap and will not cover a 1-3/8 inch door.
17) What tools and prep does installing the Schlage FC21 lever need?
Standard cylindrical bored prep and a screwdriver. It is a three step install with the universal latch that works as either a round faceplate or a drive-in, so no separate latch SKU. Drill the cross bore and edge bore to the template, set the latch for your 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 backset, mount the chassis, then insert the privacy pushbutton if that door needs privacy.
18) Is the Schlage FC21 electronic or does it have a keypad?
Strictly mechanical. The FC21 is a non-electronic cylindrical lever set with no keypad or battery. If a code-entry opening is what you are after, look at the Delaney LP250 electronic keypad leverlock or the Lockey 1150 mechanical keypad lever set, which covers 1-1/8 to 2 inch doors.
19) What passage lever alternatives to the Schlage FC21 offer a different trim look?
The FC21 pairs a Dempsey lever with a Broadway lever and offers Camelot, Century, and Collins rose designs in 622 matte black. For a different aesthetic in the same passage function, Bravura offers the Atlanta and Orlando passage leversets with round trim and the Tampa with square trim, all Grade 2, and the Miramar passage leverset in US4 satin brass.
