Schlage Residential F40 STA 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Schlage F40 St. Annes privacy lever fit a 1-3/8 inch interior door?
Yes. The F40 St. Annes privacy lever covers a door thickness range of 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, so it handles both older interior doors at 1-3/8 and standard 1-3/4 inch doors without any extension kit. Bore prep is the usual cylindrical set: 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 1 inch edge bore.
2) Does the Schlage F40 privacy lever come with the right backset, or do I have to specify 2-3/8 or 2-3/4?
No backset to specify. The F40 ships with a dual-backset latch that adjusts to either 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches, so one part number covers both the common residential bore and the deeper commercial-style bore. That is useful when you are replacing locks across a building and the door prep isn't consistent from opening to opening.
3) Do I need to order a left-hand or right-hand version of the F40 St. Annes lever?
Handing is not a factor. The F40 St. Annes lever is non-handed and the latch is universal, so the same lock works on an in-swing or out-swing door and on either hand. Set the lever orientation during install.
4) How does the Schlage F40 privacy lock get opened if someone locks themselves in the bathroom?
Two ways out. From inside, turning the lever releases the push-button, so the lock cannot trap anyone. From the corridor side, a small circular tool (the emergency pin that comes with it) pushes through the face and releases the button. That is the standard bed/bath privacy behavior, and it is why this function belongs on bedrooms and bathrooms rather than any door where you need key control.
5) Is the Schlage F40 St. Annes lever keyed, and can I put it on an entry door?
Not an entry lock. The F40 is non-keyed, with no cylinder and no key, so there is nothing to lock from the outside except the privacy button. Use it on bedrooms, baths, and offices. For an exterior opening you want a keyed handleset or a deadbolt instead, such as the Bravura 913-Savannah handleset or a Delaney Traditional single cylinder deadbolt.
6) Will the F40 latch drop into the strike already cut in my jamb?
Likely, if you have a standard radius-corner strike. The F40 comes with a 1-5/8 x 2-1/4 inch full lip radius strike with no box, and the latch face is 1 x 2-1/4 inches with 1/4 inch radius corners and a 1/2 inch throw. If your existing jamb has a square-corner strike or a T-strike, the supplied radius strike will not drop in without re-cutting the mortise.
7) Can an Emtek Select Brass Conical Stem Dark Walnut Knob be used on a bathroom or bedroom door instead of a Schlage F40 St. Annes lever?
No, those two do different jobs. The Schlage F40 St. Annes is a privacy function lock with push-button locking that can be opened from the outside with a small circular tool, and turning the inside lever releases the button. The Emtek Select Brass Conical Stem Dark Walnut Knob is a passage function, so it latches the door but never locks. Use the Emtek knob on a hall, closet or pantry door, and use the F40 where the bed or bath door has to lock from the inside. The F40 also gives you a lever rather than a knob, which is the grip most multi-family and assisted living work calls for.
8) Is a Delaney Traditional 200-B deadbolt an alternative to a Schlage F40 privacy lever?
They are not interchangeable. The Delaney Traditional 200-B is a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with a cylinder outside and thumbturn inside, and it carries no latch or handle, so it cannot operate the door on its own. The Schlage F40 St. Annes is a cylindrical bored lockset with a lever on both sides and a non-keyed push-button privacy function, and it ships with a 16-080 spring latch and a 10-027 full lip radius strike. On an interior bed or bath door the F40 is the complete lockset. A deadbolt like the 200-B belongs on an entry door alongside a handle, not on a bathroom.
9) What should go on a guest room door that needs credential access instead of a Schlage F40 privacy lever?
The Schlage F40 St. Annes is a mechanical, non-electronic lock, so it has no reader and no audit capability. For a hospitality or access-controlled opening, the Paxton PaxLock Pro 900-620WT-US is a battery powered lever latch lock with a dual frequency 13.56 MHz and 2.4 GHz reader, Bluetooth, AES128 encryption, and UL, FCC and ISED listings, in the Galaxy lever, and it is built for a 1-3/4 inch door thickness. Note the thickness difference in planning: the F40 covers 1-3/8 inch through 1-3/4 inch doors, so it suits the thinner interior doors the PaxLock Pro does not.
10) Is a Grade 2 privacy lever enough for apartment bedrooms and bathrooms in a multi-family building?
Yes, and it is a step above typical residential product. The F40 St. Annes carries ANSI/BHMA A156.2-2017 Commercial Grade 2 plus A156.39-2015 Residential Grade AAA, built in zinc and steel. For interior privacy doors in apartments, assisted living, or hospitality guest rooms, Grade 2 is the level most property managers standardize on because it survives tenant-turnover traffic better than a Grade 3 builder lock.
11) Can I use a Schlage F40 privacy lever on a labeled fire door?
Only the CSV version of the F40 carries the UL listing for 3-hour fire doors. The F40 function is listed as fire door capable in CSV form only, so if the opening is labeled, confirm you are getting that variant rather than the standard F40. On an unlabeled interior bedroom or bath door it is not a concern.
12) What is the difference between the Schlage F40 and a passage lever like the Emtek Select Conical Stem knob?
Function, not style. The F40 is a privacy set, it has a push-button that locks the door from inside with an emergency release from the hall. A passage set such as the Emtek Select Brass Conical Stem Dark Walnut knob has no locking at all, it just latches. Bedrooms and bathrooms take privacy; closets, hallways, and pantries take passage.
13) I need a lever, not a knob, for ADA-style operation in an assisted living facility. Is the St. Annes a lever?
The St. Annes is a lever handle, not a knob, which is what facilities move to when residents cannot grip and twist. It is offered in 626 satin chrome. For the same reason, pair it with lever trim on the other openings so a resident meets the same motion on every door.
14) Which entry handlesets hold the same Grade 2 rating as the Schlage F40 St. Annes?
The Schlage F40 St. Annes is Grade 2. Among the entry handlesets, the Bravura 913-Savannah, Bravura 915-Jacksonville and Bravura 971-Austin are all Grade 2 and all pair a 615 interior plate with a 906-Macon interior knob, while the Bravura 973-Montgomery is Grade 2 with a 672 interior plate and a 939-Charlotte interior lever. The Delaney Katana 400-KA is a Grade 2 single cylinder handleset with interior trim. The choice among the Bravura four is the exterior design and whether the inside trim is a knob or a lever, which is the detail to match if the interior F40 levers set the grip standard for the unit.
15) Does a Schlage F40 St. Annes need to be ordered by hand the way some other locks do?
No. The F40 St. Annes is non-handed and uses a universal latch, so one part number covers a left or right hand door and either swing. That matters when ordering against a handleset like the Delaney Avino 400-AV or the Callan Visconti, where the exterior trim and interior trim have to be planned as a set for the opening. For a run of interior bed and bath doors, the non-handed F40 means a single line item covers the whole floor.
16) Is the Delaney Contemporary 200-LTR round deadbolt a way to add locking to a door that already has a passage knob, instead of buying a Schlage F40?
That is a different result, not a substitute. The Delaney Contemporary 200-LTR is a Grade 3 single cylinder round deadbolt with a cylinder outside and a thumbturn inside, which means it is keyed and requires a second bore in the door. The Schlage F40 St. Annes is non-keyed and handles the locking in the lockset itself with a push-button that the inside lever releases, so there is no key to manage and no second hole to drill. On a bathroom, the keyed deadbolt approach also works against emergency access, which the F40 provides through the outside circular tool.
17) What finish is the Schlage F40 St. Annes privacy lever, and will it match brushed nickel hardware?
It comes in 626, satin chrome. That is a cool-toned brushed silver, close enough to brushed nickel that most people read them as a set across a room, though side by side on the same door satin chrome is slightly cooler and harder than nickel. If you are standardizing a whole building, keep the whole opening in 626.
18) Does the Schlage F40 privacy lever need a special latch ordered separately for a drive-in prep?
No extra part. The standard latch is Schlage's 16-080 spring latch with a dual option face, so it works as a faceplate latch or as a circular drive-in, and the drive-in collar is included. That covers doors bored without a face mortise, which is common on prehung residential slabs.
19) Is the Schlage F40 an electronic or smart lock?
Purely mechanical. The F40 St. Annes is a cylindrical privacy set with no electronics, no batteries, and nothing to commission. If you need credentialed access on the opening instead, an electronic lever such as the Paxton PaxLock Pro Galaxy lever latch lock is the different animal, it reads 13.56 MHz and Bluetooth credentials and fits a 1-3/4 inch door.
