Schlage Residential FC21HOBCAM622ELRCAM – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Schlage FC21 Hobson knob and Eller lever set be used as a bedroom or bathroom privacy lock?
Yes. The FC21 ships as a passage set by default, and you convert it to privacy by inserting the privacy pushbutton on the interior side of the lock. Once converted, it can still be opened from outside with the small emergency unlock, which is what you want on a bath or bedroom door. So one part number covers both a hall/closet door and a bed/bath door.
2) Will the FC21 work on my existing 2-3/8 inch bored door, or do I need 2-3/4?
Either one. The FC21 comes with a dual backset latch that adjusts to fit a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset, so you don't need to order the backset separately or buy a second latch. The door itself can be 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, which covers standard residential interior doors.
3) Will the FC21 latch drop into a door that's already drilled, or do I have to re-prep?
The FC21 uses a universal latch with a 1 inch by 2-1/4 inch faceplate with 1/4 inch radius corners, and a circular drive-in option is included in the box. That covers both common residential preps: a mortised faceplate edge or a plain 1 inch bored edge with no faceplate mortise. Throw is 1/2 inch, and the supplied strike is a full lip radius strike measuring 2-1/4 by 1-5/8 inches, so if your frame already has a radius corner strike cutout of that size it will reuse the existing prep.
4) I need a keyed entrance lock on the same doors as the Schlage FC21 - what should I order for those openings?
The FC21 Hobson Glass Knob x Eller Lever set is non-keyed and functions as passage or privacy only, so it will not secure an entry door. For keyed entrance on a comparable door, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever is Grade 2 with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different, 2-3/8 inch backset, for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Falcon B511CP6D is a Grade 2 medium duty entry/office cylindrical lever, and the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial entry lock for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
5) What is a comparable residential passage lever if the Schlage FC21 glass knob and lever styling is too decorative for the job?
The Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever set is a plainer residential alternative. It is a Grade 3 passage/hall/closet lever with a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range, which matches the 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch range the FC21 Hobson Glass Knob x Eller Lever set covers, so it drops into the same interior doors. The tradeoff is that the FC21 carries an ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 rating and the Breton is Grade 3, and the FC21 converts from passage to privacy with an interior pushbutton while the Breton is passage only.
6) I need a dedicated privacy lock for bed and bath instead of a convertible passage set - what is the alternative to the Schlage FC21?
The Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever set is a purpose-built privacy/bed/bath lock, Grade 3, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. Hager also offers the 2540 with the Withnell lever, a Grade 2 cylindrical lock for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The FC21 Hobson Glass Knob x Eller Lever set differs in that it ships as passage by default and becomes privacy only when the interior pushbutton is inserted, with an emergency unlock from the outside - useful if you want one part number covering both hall doors and bedroom doors.
7) The FC21 is a residential lock - what do I use on a commercial corridor or multi-family common door instead?
For commercial traffic step up to a Grade 1 passage lockset. The Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage cylindrical lock with non-handed levers, fire rated, covering doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. 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 Schlage FC21 Hobson Glass Knob x Eller Lever set is a Grade 2 residential lock for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, which suits unit interiors rather than a corridor.
8) My doors are 2 inches thick - can I still use the Schlage FC21, or do I need something else?
No. The FC21 Hobson Glass Knob x Eller Lever set is built for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For a 2 inch door look at the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever, which covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Dexter C1000 asylum function at 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, or the Arrow GL01 Grade 2 Sierra lever passage lock, which is specified for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors.
9) Do I have to order the FC21 in a specific hand for my door?
No handing to specify. The FC21 is non-handed, so the same set goes on a left or right swing door. Just note the knob goes on one side and the lever on the other, so decide which face you want the Hobson glass knob on before you install.
10) What rose options do I pick when ordering the Hobson knob and Eller lever set?
You choose a rose for each side independently. The Hobson glass knob takes a Camelot, Century, or Collins rose, and the Eller lever takes the same three. Any combination is orderable, so you can match both sides or mix them. All are in the 622 matte black finish.
11) Is the FC21 rated well enough for apartment turnover work?
For residential interior doors, yes. The FC21 carries ANSI/BHMA A156.2-2017 Grade 2 and is built with stainless steel components. Grade 2 is a step above the Grade 3 builder-level sets common in multifamily. It is a residential-rated lock, so for a commercial corridor or a high-traffic institutional opening you'd move to a Grade 1 cylindrical such as the Dexter C1000 passage lever, which fits the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door range.
12) I want a matching lever on both sides instead of a knob and lever. What else works?
The FC21 is specifically a two-sided combination, Hobson glass knob on one face and Eller lever on the other. If you want the same lever both sides in a passage function, look at the Bravura Atlanta, Orlando, or Tampa passage leversets, or the Accentra 5301LN Augusta, all Grade 2 passage cylindrical sets. The Kwikset 200BRNL Breton is a Grade 3 passage lever fitting the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.
13) Can I use the Schlage FC21 on a 1-3/4 inch solid core door with a 2 inch thick jamb build-up?
The lock itself covers up to 1-3/4 inch door thickness, so a standard 1-3/4 inch solid core door is fine. Anything thicker than that is outside the FC21's range. For thicker doors, the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever covers 1-3/8 to 2 inch, and the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage covers 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch. Jamb build-up doesn't affect the lock, only the strike location.
14) What is the closest Grade 2 passage lever alternative to the Schlage FC21?
Several Grade 2 passage levers cover the same function. The Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical passage lever with a non-handed design, the Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 passage/closet cylindrical lever, and the Hager 2510 with the Withnell design is Grade 2 passage for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. All three are lever-only trim; the FC21 pairs the Hobson glass knob with the Eller lever and adds pushbutton privacy conversion, which none of those three offer.
15) Is a dummy lever like the Baldwin 5103 or BEST 7KC a substitute for the Schlage FC21?
No. Dummy trim such as the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy lever with 5048 rose or the BEST 7KC single dummy trim cylindrical lever is surface-mounted pull trim with no latch - it does not retract anything. The FC21 Hobson Glass Knob x Eller Lever set is a cylindrical lockset with a working latch and a privacy pushbutton. Use dummy trim only on an inactive leaf or a closet door held by a ball catch. If you want matching Baldwin trim across a suite, the 5103 is offered in passage and privacy versions as well.
16) Do I need to order the Schlage FC21 handed like the Baldwin 5103 dummy levers?
No. The FC21 Hobson Glass Knob x Eller Lever set is non-handed, so one part number covers both left and right hand doors. That differs from the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy, which is ordered as a specific left hand or right hand part. If you are stocking spares for a building, the non-handed FC21 keeps the count down to one line item.
17) What should I use instead of the Schlage FC21 if I want keypad access on an interior door?
The FC21 Hobson Glass Knob x Eller Lever set is a mechanical, non-electronic lock. For coded access look at the Delaney LP250 electronic keypad leverlock, which is Grade 2, the Emtek Classic keypad leverset, or the Lockey 1150 heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with double combination, specified for doors 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch.
18) Is the Arrow MK02-TA privacy knob an equivalent swap for the Schlage FC21?
Not on the same doors. The Arrow MK02-TA is a privacy cylindrical lock with a Tudor knob, non-keyed and fire rated, but it is specified for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. The FC21 Hobson Glass Knob x Eller Lever set covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. They overlap only at 1-3/4 inch, so confirm your door thickness before treating one as a drop-in for the other.
19) For a school or healthcare interior door, is the Schlage FC21 the right lock or should I specify something else?
Specify something else for institutional openings. The FC21 Hobson Glass Knob x Eller Lever set is a Grade 2 residential passage/privacy lock. For classroom and institutional use, the Dexter C1000 series offers Grade 1 classroom and classroom security clutching lever locks for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal AG03 classroom lever is Grade 2 with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway and 2-3/4 inch backset. For utility and patient room applications, the Dexter C1000 asylum F87 is Grade 1 for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
20) Is the FC21 electronic or does it need any wiring?
Purely mechanical. The FC21 is a bored cylindrical lockset with no electronics and nothing to wire, and installation needs only a screwdriver. If you're after keyless code entry on an interior door, that's a different animal, for example the Delaney LP250 keypad leverlock or the Emtek Classic keypad leverset.
21) What decorative lever alternatives to the Schlage FC21 are there for a higher-end residential interior?
For decorative interior trim, the Baldwin Estate 5103 lever with 5048 rose is offered in passage and privacy versions, so you can specify function door by door. Bravura also offers Grade 2 passage leversets in several styles - Miramar and Atlanta with round trim, Orlando with round trim, and Tampa with square trim. The FC21 Hobson Glass Knob x Eller Lever set differs in that it puts a glass knob on one side and a lever on the other and handles both passage and privacy from one Grade 2 lockset.
