Schlage Residential F170 BEL 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Schlage F170 Bell knob a working latch or just a pull?
The F170 half dummy is a surface-mounted knob only. There is no latch and no bore-through mechanism, so it just gives you something to pull on. Use it on a closet door with a magnetic or roller catch, or on the inactive leaf of a pair. If you need the door to latch when it closes, you want a passage knob instead, not the dummy.
2) Does the Schlage F170 dummy knob have a handing, or will one part number work on both sides?
Non-handed. The Bell knob dummy goes on a left-hand or right-hand door without changing anything, which is why property managers can stock one part number for a whole building. Note it is a HALF dummy, so it's one knob for one face of the door. A closet door that needs a knob on both faces takes two.
3) If I need the door to lock, what do I use instead of the Schlage F170 Bell knob?
The F170 is non-keyed and both knobs are always unlocked, so it does not secure an opening on its own. Where the door needs to be locked, add a deadbolt or move to a keyed set. The Delaney Traditional single cylinder deadbolt is a Grade 3 cylinder by thumbturn function, and the Delaney Contemporary single cylinder round deadbolt is the same Grade 3 cylinder by thumbturn function with a round rose. A deadbolt is a separate bore in the door above the knob, not a replacement for the knob itself, so the F170 can stay in place alongside one.
4) Can a Schlage F170 knob be used on a front entry door instead of a handleset?
No. The F170 is a non-keyed cylindrical knob set with both knobs always unlocked, which suits interior openings rather than an exterior entrance. For an entry door, a single cylinder handleset is the right form: the Bravura 913-Savannah, 915-Jacksonville and 971-Austin handlesets pair a 615 interior plate with the 906-Macon interior knob and are rated Grade 2, matching the F170's Grade 2 rating, while the Bravura 973-Montgomery uses a 672 interior plate with the 939-Charlotte interior lever. The Delaney Katana single cylinder handleset with interior trim is also a Grade 2 option.
5) Which entry handlesets carry the same ANSI/BHMA grade as the Schlage F170?
The F170 is rated ANSI/BHMA Grade 2. Among entry handlesets, the Bravura 913-Savannah, 915-Jacksonville and 971-Austin, the Bravura 973-Montgomery, and the Delaney Katana single cylinder handleset are all Grade 2. The Callan Visconti and Callan Briona single cylinder handlesets and the Delaney Avino single cylinder handleset are Grade 3. If a facility standard calls for Grade 2 throughout, the Bravura and Delaney Katana handlesets sit at the same grade as the F170 knob set.
6) Will the Schlage F Series Bell dummy knob match the working knobs already on my other doors?
It will if those doors are Schlage F Series in the Bell design. The Bell knob is a standard F Series knob style, and the dummy is offered in 605 bright brass, 609 antique brass, and 626 satin chrome, so you can line it up with the finish on the rest of the openings. Match the design name and the finish number, not just the color word, since bright brass and antique brass both read as brass on a photo.
7) Is the Schlage F170 knob rated for apartment and rental turnover use?
The F Series carries ANSI/BHMA Grade 2, which is the residential and light commercial tier, and the trim is zinc and steel. That's the usual spec for apartment interior doors, closets, and condo units. For a high traffic commercial opening you'd move up to a Grade 1 cylindrical line rather than the residential F Series.
8) I need a passage knob that actually latches, not a dummy. What should I order instead?
Stay in the same family and take the passage version of the F Series knob rather than the F170 dummy, so the trim matches on adjacent doors. The passage function leaves both knobs always unlocked and retracts a latch. If you're open on brand for a decorative knob, the Emtek Select Brass Conical Stem Dark Walnut knob is a passage/hall/closet function knob we carry as well.
9) Does the Schlage F170 half dummy come with a latch and strike plate?
No latch, no strike, and no keys, because a dummy has nothing to retract or catch. What ships is the Bell knob and its mounting screws. Budget separately for a catch on the door if the leaf needs to hold shut, and for a deadbolt if the opening needs to lock. We carry Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolts from Delaney in both the Traditional and Contemporary rounded styles, both cylinder by thumbturn.
10) What is the difference between the Schlage F170 Bell knob and the Emtek Select Brass Conical Stem Dark Walnut knob?
Both are knob trim for an interior opening, but they cover different jobs. The Schlage F170 is a non-keyed cylindrical knob set whose function is described as both knobs always unlocked, supplied with the 16-080 spring latch and 10-027 full lip radius strike. The Emtek Select Brass Conical Stem Dark Walnut knob is carried as a Passage/Hall/Closet function in the Dark Walnut Handle series, with a wood knob face rather than the zinc and steel Bell knob. Choose by the look you want on the door and by whether you need the Schlage latch and strike hardware that ships with the F170.
11) Is the Schlage F170 an option where the opening needs credentialed access control?
No. The F170 is a mechanical, non-electronic knob set with both knobs always unlocked, so it carries no credential reader. For a credentialed opening, the Paxton PaxLock Pro Galaxy lever latch lock is a battery powered lock with a dual frequency reader at 13.56 MHz and 2.4 GHz, Bluetooth, AES128 encryption, a 1-3/4 inch door thickness, and ISED, UL and FCC listings. Note the PaxLock Pro is specified at 1-3/4 inch door thickness while the F170 covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, so verify the leaf before swapping one for the other.
12) I want a lever instead of a knob on the interior side - what are my options?
The F170 is a knob, with the Bell knob design as its handle style. Where a lever is wanted on the interior side of an entrance, the Bravura 973-Montgomery handleset comes with a 672 interior plate and the 939-Charlotte interior lever, and it is rated Grade 2, the same grade as the F170. The other Bravura handlesets in the Savannah, Jacksonville and Austin series use the 906-Macon interior knob instead. On an interior opening, the Emtek Select Brass Conical Stem Dark Walnut knob is a Passage/Hall/Closet knob rather than a lever.
13) Which finishes does the Schlage Bell half dummy knob come in?
Three, and they're all BHMA numbered so you can spec them off a schedule: 605 bright brass, 609 antique brass, and 626 satin chrome. The 626 satin chrome is the one that lines up with most commercial and multi-family door hardware; 605 and 609 are the residential brass looks.
14) Is the Schlage F170 Bell dummy an electronic or smart lock?
Purely mechanical. No battery, no reader, no credentials. If the spec calls for access control on that opening, the Paxton PaxLock Pro Galaxy lever is the battery powered, dual frequency 13.56 MHz and 2.4 GHz reader lock we stock for 1-3/4 inch doors.
