Schlage Residential FC21ELRCAM622ELRCAM – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Do I need to know the backset before ordering the Schlage FC21 lever?
No. The FC21 ships with dual backset latches that fit either a 2-3/8 or a 2-3/4 inch backset, which are the two backsets you find on residential and light commercial bores. Measure if you like, but one latch covers both, so you are not ordering a wrong-backset part.
2) Can a bathroom door with a Schlage FC21 privacy lever be opened from outside in an emergency?
Yes. Once the FC21 is set up in privacy mode it can be released from the outside with a small emergency unlock tool, which is what you want on a bathroom or a child's bedroom in a rental. No key, no cylinder, no pinning.
3) Will the Schlage FC21 latch drop into my existing strike, or do I have to re-mortise the frame?
In most retrofits it drops in. The FC21 uses a 1 inch by 2-1/4 inch faceplate with 1/4 inch radius corners, a 1 inch housing diameter and a 1/2 inch throw, and it includes a circular drive-in latch as well. The strike supplied is a 1-5/8 inch by 2-1/4 inch full lip radius corner strike, which is the common residential frame prep. If your frame currently has a square-corner strike cutout, you will need to file the corners or reuse the existing strike, since the throw is the same 1/2 inch either way.
4) Is the Schlage FC21 rated for commercial corridors or just residential doors?
It is a residential lock. The FC21 carries ANSI/BHMA A156.2-2017 Grade 2 and A156.39-2015 Residential Grade AAA, with a stainless steel substrate, which suits apartment, condo and single-family interiors including multi-family turns. For a commercial corridor or a school where you need a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical, look at the Falcon K101 or the Corbin Russwin CL3110, both Grade 1 passage sets.
5) I have a 2 inch thick door. Will the Schlage FC21 work?
No. The FC21 tops out at 1-3/4 inches. For a 2 inch door, the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever is rated 1-3/8 to 2 inches, the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lever covers 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches, and the Arrow GL01 Grade 2 passage lever is rated 1-3/4 to 2 inches. Any of those will take the thickness the FC21 will not.
6) Is a dummy lever a substitute for the Schlage FC21 Eller passage lock?
No. The Schlage FC21 Eller is a cylindrical lockset with a working latch, passage by default and convertible to privacy. A dummy lever is surface trim with no latch and no mechanism - the Accentra 455LN Augusta single dummy, the BEST 9K 1DT single dummy trim, the BEST 7KC 1DT single dummy trim, and the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy in left or right hand are all dummy function. Use those on a fixed inactive leaf or a closet door that is held by a ball catch, and use the FC21 where the door actually latches.
7) What is the closest equivalent to the Schlage FC21 Eller lever if I need a passage lever in a Grade 2 cylindrical set?
The Schlage FC21 Eller is a Grade 2 non-keyed cylindrical leverset with a passage/privacy function. For a straight Grade 2 cylindrical passage lever, the Accentra 5301LN Augusta covers passage/hall/closet in the 5300 Series, and the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 cylindrical passage lever with a non-handed design. Both handle the same hall and closet openings; the difference is that the FC21 also converts to privacy with the interior pushbutton, while the 5301LN and B101 are passage only.
8) I need a dedicated privacy lever for bedroom and bathroom doors instead of a convertible one - what should I order?
The Schlage FC21 Eller starts as passage and converts to privacy when the pushbutton is inserted on the interior side. If you would rather the privacy function be fixed from the box, the Hager 2540 is a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock with a Withnell lever, the Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton is a Grade 3 privacy lever set for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with 5048 rose covers the same bed and bath duty. All three arrive as privacy only, with no passage mode to set.
9) The FC21 is rated residential - what do I use on a commercial corridor or a high-traffic institutional door instead?
The Schlage FC21 Eller is a Grade 2 residential leverset. For a passage lever built to a heavier standard, 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; the Falcon T101 is a Grade 1 heavy-duty cylindrical passage lever with pressure release technology; and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal-resistant passage/closet lever, fire rated, for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. The Design Hardware X75 is a Grade 1 passage lever for 1-3/4 inch doors if the opening is a single thickness.
10) My door is thicker than 1-3/4 inches - which lever will fit if the FC21 will not?
The Schlage FC21 Eller is built for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, so a thicker slab needs a different set. The Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever with Withnell design covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Arrow GL01 Grade 2 Sierra lever passage lock is specified for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. The Corbin Russwin CL3110 passage/closet lever also runs 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. Measure the slab at the lock edge before you choose.
11) Will the FC21 Eller lever work on an entry door that needs a key?
The Schlage FC21 Eller is non-keyed - passage with a privacy pushbutton option, no cylinder to key. For an opening that has to lock with a key, the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 cylindrical entry lock with a lever handle for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever is Grade 2 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, and the Falcon B511CP6D is a Grade 2 cylindrical lever with entry/office function. The Dexter C1000 entry/office lever is the Grade 1 option for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
12) Do I have to order the Schlage FC21 handed left or right?
Handing does not apply. The FC21 Eller lever is non-handed, with an Eller lever on both sides, so the same set goes on a left-hand or right-hand door. For a property manager buying a pallet for a building turn, that removes the handing count from the order entirely.
13) What rose designs and finish can I get on the Schlage FC21 Eller lever, and can the two sides differ?
The Eller lever comes in 622 Matte Black, with a choice of Camelot, Century or Collins rose. The rose is specified separately for each side, so you can run a Camelot rose on the corridor side and a Century rose on the room side if you are matching two different design schemes across one opening. Nine combinations in total.
14) What is the closest alternative to the Schlage FC21 if I want a Grade 2 passage lever in a different lever style?
Several Grade 2 passage levers cover the same duty. The Accentra 5301LN Augusta and the 4601LN are Grade 2 cylindrical passage sets, the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 non-handed passage lever, and the Hager 2510 with the Withnell lever is Grade 2 and spans 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors if you have a thicker door than the FC21's 1-3/4 inch ceiling. Bravura's Atlanta, Orlando and Tampa passage leversets are also Grade 2 if you want a round or square trim look. None of those convert to privacy the way the FC21 does, though.
15) What tools and prep does installing a Schlage FC21 lever actually take?
A screwdriver. The FC21 is a bored cylindrical set with a three step install: drill or verify the existing bore and latch prep, set the latch, then mount the lever assembly. Because it is non-handed and the latch covers both 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inch backsets, there is no handing to reverse and no backset part to swap. The latch, the drive-in option and the full lip radius strike are all in the box.
16) Is the Schlage FC21 a better choice than a Kwikset Grade 3 lever for apartment interiors?
They sit at different grades. The FC21 Eller is ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 with a stainless steel substrate. The Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage and 300BRNL Breton privacy levers are Grade 3 and cover the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door range. Grade 2 is the middle ANSI/BHMA tier and Grade 3 the light residential tier, so the FC21 is built for higher cycle traffic. The other difference is stocking: Kwikset splits passage and privacy into two part numbers, while the FC21 converts between the two with a pushbutton.
17) What is a lighter-duty passage lever than the Schlage FC21 Eller for a low-traffic interior door?
The Schlage FC21 Eller is Grade 2 with a stainless steel substrate. If the opening is a light-use interior door, the Kwikset 200BRNL RDT Breton passage lever set is Grade 3 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Callan Asheville is a Grade 3 passage leverset in satin nickel. Both cover the same hall and closet duty at the lighter grade; neither offers the privacy conversion the FC21 has.
18) I am standardizing apartment interiors on levers with a decorative rose - what compares to the Schlage FC21 Eller?
The Schlage FC21 Eller pairs Eller lever with Eller lever and offers Camelot, Century, and Collins rose designs on each side in 622 matte black. For decorative passage levers with round or square trim, Bravura offers the Atlanta and Orlando passage leversets with round trim and the Tampa with square trim, all Grade 2, plus the Miramar passage leverset with round trim in US4 satin brass. The Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever uses the 5048 rose. Match the rose shape across units so the trim reads the same door to door.
19) Can I use a knob set in place of the FC21 Eller lever on the same prep?
The Schlage FC21 Eller is a lever-handle cylindrical lockset, non-handed. If the specification calls for a knob instead, the Arrow MK02-TA is a Grade 1 privacy cylindrical lock with a Tudor knob, fire rated, for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Arrow HK11-BB is a Grade 2 turn-pushbutton entrance cylindrical lock with a ball knob for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. Note that levers and knobs are not interchangeable on ADA-driven openings, where a lever is the operable form required.
20) I need keyless access on a rental turnover instead of a privacy pushbutton - what are my options?
The Schlage FC21 Eller is a mechanical non-electronic lockset; its privacy mode is set with a pushbutton and released from outside with a small emergency unlock tool. If you want code-based entry rather than a privacy thumb function, the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock, the Lockey 1150 is a heavy-duty mechanical keypad lever set with double combination for 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and Emtek offers a Classic keypad leverset. Those change the opening from an interior privacy door to a code-controlled one, so confirm which behavior the unit needs.
21) What should I specify instead of the FC21 for a classroom or storeroom door in a school?
The Schlage FC21 Eller is a non-keyed passage and privacy set, which is not a classroom or storeroom function. For keyed institutional functions, the Dexter C1000 classroom lever is Grade 1 with a clutching mechanism for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the C1000 classroom security lever is the Grade 1 version with inside keyed control, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom leverset with a deadlocking latchbolt for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom cylindrical lock with a Withnell lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
22) Is the Schlage FC21 an electronic or keypad lock?
No, the FC21 Eller is purely mechanical, no batteries and no keypad. If you want code entry on the same interior or entry doors, the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock, and the Lockey 1150 is a mechanical keypad lever set that fits 1-1/8 to 2 inch doors.
23) I need a matching non-functional lever for a closet or French door. Does the FC21 come as a dummy?
The FC21 Eller set is a working passage/privacy lockset, not a dummy trim. For a surface-mounted dummy lever, the BEST 7KC single dummy trim is Grade 2 medium duty, the BEST 9K 1DT is Grade 1 heavy duty, and the Callan Bentley is a Grade 2 dummy lever. Baldwin's Estate 5103 comes as a left or right hand half dummy if you want it to match a 5103 passage or privacy set on the adjacent doors.
24) Does the FC21 Eller cover a patient room or utility door that needs asylum function?
No. The Schlage FC21 Eller is a passage and privacy set for residential interior openings. An asylum or institutional function locks and unlocks by key from both sides, and for that the Dexter C1000 asylum (F87) is Grade 1 for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, while the Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a Grade 2 heavy-duty asylum lock with a ball knob and a conventional Schlage C keyway cylinder. Those are the correct calls where staff must control both sides of the door.
25) Are there other Grade 2 passage levers I can standardize on across a mixed portfolio alongside the FC21?
The Schlage FC21 Eller is a Grade 2 non-handed cylindrical passage set. Other Grade 2 passage levers that cover the same interior openings include the Accentra 4601LN with Augusta trim in the 4600 Series, the Accentra 5301LN Augusta in the 5300 Series, the Design Hardware J75 flat lever for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 2510 Withnell for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Pick by the door thicknesses in the portfolio and keep one lever shape per building so the feel is consistent.
