Schlage Residential F10 MER 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Schlage F10 Merano lever fit a 1-3/8 inch interior door, or is it only for 1-3/4?
Both. The F10 Merano passage lever covers a door thickness range of 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, so the same lock goes on older 1-3/8 inch interior doors and on 1-3/4 inch doors without ordering anything different.
2) My existing doors are bored at 2-3/4 backset, not 2-3/8. Does the Schlage F10 lever need a specific backset?
No need to specify. The F10 ships with a dual backset universal latch that adjusts to either 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches, which are the two standard bored-door backsets. On a building with a mix of both preps, you order one part number and it works on either door.
3) Does the Schlage F10 passage lever lock, or does it need a key?
Neither lever locks. The F10 is a passage function, meaning both levers are always unlocked and the latch simply holds the door closed. There is no cylinder and no key. For a bedroom or bath where someone needs to lock the door from inside, you want a privacy function instead, and for anything keyed you want a keyed entry lock.
4) Do I need to order the Schlage F10 lever handed for a left or right hand door?
Handing doesn't apply. The F10 Merano lever is non-handed, so one lock covers left and right hand doors and there is nothing to reverse in the field.
5) Will the Schlage F10 latch into the strike already in my door frame?
The F10 comes with its own 10-027 full lip radius strike measuring 2-1/4 by 1-5/8 inches, and the latch is a 1 by 2-1/4 inch faceplate with a 1/4 inch radius corner, 7/8 inch housing diameter and 1/2 inch throw. If your existing frame is prepped for a radius corner strike of that size, it drops in; if the old strike is square corner or a different size, use the included strike and re-prep the jamb.
6) Can the Schlage F10 replace a worn passage lock on an existing bored door without redrilling?
In most cases yes, because the F10 is a standard bored cylindrical set with a universal latch that covers both the 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 backsets and doors from 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches thick. The one thing to check is the strike prep: the included 10-027 strike is a 2-1/4 by 1-5/8 inch radius corner full lip, so a jamb cut for a square corner strike will need the mortise adjusted.
7) What should be used instead of the Schlage F10 Merano lever on a door that needs credential-based access control?
The Paxton PaxLock Pro Galaxy lever latch lock is the part for that opening. It is a battery powered lever latch lock with a dual frequency reader at 13.56 MHz and 2.4 GHz, Bluetooth, AES128 encryption, and fits a 1-3/4 inch door thickness. The Schlage F10 Merano is a mechanical, non-electronic lockset with no locking function at all, so it cannot control access; it fits doors from 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch.
8) What is a good alternative to the Schlage F10 Merano passage lever for an interior door that needs a knob instead of a lever?
The Emtek Select Brass Conical Stem Dark Walnut Knob is a passage set in knob form, so it holds the same always-unlocked interior function as the Schlage F10 Merano while presenting a knob rather than the Merano lever. Choose it where the door calls for a knob profile or a wood handle look; choose the F10 Merano where a lever is wanted for easier one-handed operation on hall, closet and corridor doors.
9) Can the Schlage F10 Merano passage lock be used on an exterior entry door?
No. The F10 Merano is non-keyed with both levers always unlocked, which suits interior hall, closet and corridor doors. For an exterior opening, a keyed handleset such as the Bravura 913-Savannah with 615 interior plate and 906-Macon interior knob or the Delaney Katana single cylinder handleset is the correct part; both are Grade 2, matching the F10's Grade 2 rating. The Callan Visconti and Callan Briona single cylinder handlesets are Grade 3 options in the same handleset form.
10) Is a passage lever like the Schlage F10 durable enough for apartment common area and corridor doors?
It carries ANSI/BHMA A156.2-2017 Commercial Grade 2 certification as well as Residential Grade AAA under A156.39-2015, with zinc and steel construction. That is the grade property managers normally accept for multi-family corridor, hall and common area doors that see constant traffic.
11) What latch and strike do I need to order separately with the Schlage F10 Merano lever?
Nothing extra. The set includes the 16-080 spring latch, which is the dual option round and drive-in latch, plus the 10-027 full lip radius strike. Installation is a screwdriver job with the manufacturer door prep template; there is no box strike in the package, so if your jamb requires a boxed strike you would add one.
12) What finishes and rose shapes does the Schlage F10 Merano lever come in for matching the rest of a building?
Five finishes: 619 Satin Nickel, 622 Matte Black, 625 Bright Chrome, 626 Satin Chrome and 716 Aged Bronze. Each is offered on three rose designs, Alden, Century and Greenwich, so you can hold the Merano lever and the finish constant and pick the rose that matches the escutcheon shape already on the other doors.
13) Should I use a passage lever or a handleset on an interior door?
A passage lever like the F10 Merano is for interior openings that only need to latch: halls, closets, laundry and utility rooms, secondary bedrooms. Handlesets are exterior entry hardware with a keyed cylinder, which is what the Bravura 913 Savannah and 915 Jacksonville Grade 2 handlesets or the Grade 2 Delaney Katana single cylinder handleset are built for. If the door faces outside, you want one of those, not a passage set.
14) Does the Schlage F10 Merano passage lever add a deadbolt to the door?
It does not. The F10 Merano is a cylindrical bored lockset with a passage function, so it latches the door but provides no bolt that throws. When a separate bolt is needed on the same opening, the Delaney Traditional 200-B and the Delaney Contemporary 200-LTR round deadbolt are Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolts with a cylinder by thumbturn function, installed in their own bore above the lever.
15) If a front door gets a Bravura or Delaney handleset, what matches it on the interior doors?
The Schlage F10 Merano passage lever is the interior counterpart, non-handed and non-keyed for hall, closet and corridor doors, offered in 619 Satin Nickel, 622 Matte Black, 625 Bright Chrome, 626 Satin Chrome and 716 Aged Bronze. Handlesets in the same Grade 2 class include the Bravura 971-Austin and the Bravura 973-Montgomery, which carries a 939-Charlotte interior lever, and the Delaney Katana. The Bravura 915-Jacksonville is a further Grade 2 handleset with a 906-Macon interior knob.
16) Is the Schlage F10 Merano lever rated higher than a Grade 3 residential handleset?
The Schlage F10 Merano carries an ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 rating. Among comparable residential door hardware, the Delaney Katana handleset and the Bravura Savannah, Jacksonville, Austin and Montgomery handlesets are also Grade 2, while the Callan Visconti, Callan Briona and Delaney Avino handlesets are Grade 3. Grade 2 reflects a higher cycle and strength test tier under the standard, which matters on multi-family common area and high-traffic interior doors.
17) Will a Delaney Avino or Callan handleset work as a replacement for a Schlage F10 Merano passage lever?
No, they are different door preparations. The Delaney Avino and the Callan Visconti and Briona are single cylinder handlesets with interior trim, built for an exterior entry door with a long exterior plate. The Schlage F10 Merano is a cylindrical bored lockset that mounts through a standard bore with a lever on both sides and no keyed cylinder, so swapping one for the other means changing the door prep.
18) What is a comparable passage set if I want a knob instead of a lever?
For the same always-unlocked passage function in a knob, the Emtek Select Brass Conical Stem Dark Walnut knob is a passage set from another brand. Keep in mind levers are what most ADA-conscious and multi-family specs call for on interior doors, so a knob is usually a look decision rather than a fit one.
