Schlage Residential FC21 ELR 716 KIN – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Schlage FC21 a passage lever or a privacy lever?
Both, and you decide at install. The FC21 Eller ships functioning as a passage set, and you insert the privacy pushbutton on the interior side to convert it to privacy. That means one part number covers your hall and closet doors and your bedroom and bath doors. If someone locks themselves in, the privacy side can be opened from outside with the small emergency unlock tool.
2) Do I need to order a left hand or right hand Schlage FC21 lever?
Neither. The FC21 Eller lever is non-handed, so the same box goes on a left or right swinging door. Nothing to specify and nothing to send back if you measured the swing wrong.
3) Will the Schlage FC21 latch drop into my existing strike, or do I have to rework the frame?
The FC21 comes with a 10-027 full lip radius strike measuring 2-1/4 by 1-5/8 inches, which is the common residential radius-corner strike, and the latch throws 1/2 inch into it. If your frame already has a 2-1/4 by 1-5/8 radius corner cutout you can reuse the prep. Square corner preps will need the corners filed or the strike swapped.
4) Does the Schlage FC21 work in a wood door with no latch bore, or only a pre-drilled door?
Both. The standard latch is a 16-600 spring latch supplied as a dual option, round faceplate or drive-in, so you use the faceplate version in a door already mortised for one and the drive-in collar in a door bored but not mortised. The latch face is 1 by 2-1/4 inches with a 1/4 inch radius corner and a 1 inch housing diameter.
5) Can I use the Schlage FC21 Eller lever on a 90 minute fire rated apartment door?
The FC21 is available UL Listed for 90 minute fire door applications, so it can go on a rated opening where that listing is called for. It is a Grade 2 lock under ANSI/BHMA A156.2-2017 and also carries ANSI/BHMA A156.39-2015 Residential Grade AAA.
6) Is there a heavier duty commercial alternative to the Schlage FC21 Eller for a high traffic corridor door?
The FC21 Eller is a Grade 2 residential cylindrical lock. For a commercial corridor, the Falcon T101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage lever, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty non-handed passage lever with a fire rating, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage and closet lever, also fire rated, for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. All three hold the same passage function as the FC21 but none of them offer its privacy pushbutton conversion.
7) What passage lever should I use instead of the Schlage FC21 Eller on a 2 inch thick door?
The FC21 Eller is built for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. For a 2 inch door, the Hager 2510 passage lever with the Withnell design is a Grade 2 cylindrical passage lock rated for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Falcon K101 passage lever is a Grade 1 heavy duty non-handed passage lock rated for 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. Both keep the passage function; the K101 also carries a fire rating.
8) What is the closest non-keyed lever equivalent to the Schlage FC21 Eller for a bedroom or bathroom door?
The Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever set covers the same bed and bath privacy function and fits the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range as the FC21 Eller, and is rated Grade 3. The FC21 Eller is Grade 2 and ships as a passage lever that converts to privacy when the pushbutton is inserted on the interior side, so one FC21 order covers both a hall door and a bath door while the Breton is bought as a dedicated privacy set.
9) Will an Emtek or Baldwin dummy lever work in place of a Schlage FC21 Eller?
No. The FC21 Eller is a cylindrical lock with a working latch, passage by default and privacy once the pushbutton is inserted. The Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy levers and the Emtek Arts and Crafts and Cortina dummy pairs are dummy function only, meaning the lever is fixed trim with no latch, used on inactive doors and closet pairs. If you need the door to latch, order the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage or privacy lever rather than the dummy.
10) The door needs a key, not a pushbutton - what takes the place of the Schlage FC21 Eller?
The FC21 Eller is non-keyed, so it will not secure a unit entry or an office. Keyed lever options include the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever, Grade 2 with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different and a 2-3/8 inch backset, and the Dexter C1000 Grade 1 entry and office clutching lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For a door that must always relock behind the user, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt across the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door range.
11) I am standardizing interior levers across an apartment building - how does the Schlage FC21 Eller compare to the Kwikset Breton for that?
Both fit doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Kwikset Breton line splits by function, with the 200BRNL as the Grade 3 passage lever and the 300BRNL as the Grade 3 privacy lever, so a building standard means stocking two part numbers. The FC21 Eller is Grade 2, additionally certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.39-2015 Residential Grade AAA, and carries one non-keyed part number that ships passage and converts to privacy with the pushbutton, across five finishes from 619 Satin Nickel to 622 Matte Black.
12) The Arrow GL01 was quoted as a substitute for the Schlage FC21 Eller - does it fit the same doors?
Not on a standard interior door. The Arrow GL01 is a Grade 2 non-keyed Sierra lever passage lock in the GL Series, but it is rated for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch, while the FC21 Eller covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. Interior residential doors are commonly 1-3/8 inch, which sits below the GL01 range. The GL01 also has no privacy provision, where the FC21 converts with a pushbutton.
13) What finishes and rose shapes does the Schlage FC21 Eller lever come in?
Five finishes: 608 satin brass, 619 satin nickel, 622 matte black, 625 bright chrome and 716 aged bronze. Each pairs with a choice of five rose designs, Century, Collins, Kinsler, Greene and Upland, so you can match trim shape across a floor while keeping one finish, or match an existing finish and change the rose to suit the room. That is what makes this practical for a property manager standardizing a building.
14) How much door prep does a Schlage FC21 lever take, and do I need special tools?
A screwdriver. The FC21 installs in three steps once the door is bored, using the universal latch with its drive-in option and the supplied template for hole marking. It is a bored cylindrical lock, not a mortise lock, so a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 1 inch edge bore is all the door needs.
15) What is the difference between the Schlage FC21 Eller and a Kwikset Breton passage lever?
Duty rating, mostly. The FC21 Eller is a Grade 2 set with a stainless steel substrate that converts between passage and privacy with a pushbutton. The Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever is Grade 3 and covers the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door range, and Kwikset splits the functions, with the 300BRNL Breton sold separately as the privacy version. If you want one SKU covering both bedroom and hall doors, the FC21 does it; if you are matching an existing Kwikset Breton trim in the building, match the Kwikset.
16) I need a matching dummy lever for a closet or a fixed door, does the Schlage FC21 do that?
No. The FC21 Eller is a working passage set with a live latch, so it will not serve as a dummy on a fixed or inactive leaf. For a dummy in the same room you want a purpose built one, such as the Callan Bentley Grade 2 dummy lever or the BEST 7KC Series single dummy trim, also Grade 2. Neither matches the Eller trim, so if the look has to carry through, keep the dummy on a different door line.
17) Can I use a Schlage FC21 Eller where a keypad lever was specified?
No. The FC21 Eller is a mechanical, non-electronic lock. If the opening calls for code entry, the Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with double combination and passage function for doors 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch, the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock, and Emtek offers a Classic keypad leverset. The FC21 suits the interior doors behind such an opening, not the opening itself.
18) I only need a hall or closet lever with no lock at all - what is simpler than the Schlage FC21 Eller?
The FC21 Eller is non-keyed and defaults to passage, with privacy added by inserting a pushbutton. If a door never needs to lock, a straight passage lever is enough: the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 medium duty non-handed cylindrical passage lever, the Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 cylindrical passage and closet lever in the 5300 Series, and the Bravura Atlanta and Bravura Orlando are Grade 2 passage leversets with round trim. None of these convert to privacy, so keep the FC21 on any door that may later become a bedroom or bath.
19) What is the difference between the Schlage FC21 Eller and a knob lock like the Arrow MK02 for a bathroom?
Both cover a bath door, but the trim differs and that decides accessibility. The FC21 Eller is a lever handle in the Eller design, non-handed. The Arrow MK02-TA is a privacy cylindrical lock with a Tudor knob for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch and carries a fire rating. A knob requires grasping and twisting, so on any door subject to ADA operable-hardware requirements the lever trim is the one to specify.
20) What passage lever matches the Schlage FC21 Eller for a patient room or a utility door that must never be locked shut?
On a door where an occupant must not be able to secure themselves in, leave the FC21 Eller privacy pushbutton out and it stays passage, or specify a lever with no locking provision at all such as the Accentra 4601LN Grade 2 passage lever with Augusta trim or the Design Hardware J75 Grade 2 passage lever for 1-3/4 inch doors. Where the room instead needs the institutional function, the Dexter C1000 F87 asylum lock covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch at Grade 1 and the Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a Grade 2 asylum lock with a Schlage C keyway.
21) Is the Schlage FC21 Eller a keypad or smart lock?
No, it is entirely mechanical, with no electronics and no wiring. If you need code access on an interior or unit door, look at the Delaney LP250 Grade 2 electronic keypad leverset or the Lockey 1150 mechanical keypad lever set, which covers 1-1/8 to 2 inch doors.
