Schlage Residential F40 BWE 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Schlage F40 privacy knob fit a 1-3/8 inch interior door?
Yes. The F40 Bowery privacy set covers a door thickness range of 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, so it handles both older interior doors and standard 1-3/4 inch slabs without any spacer or extension kit. The 16-080 latch shipped with it is a dual-backset latch, so the same lock works on a 2-3/8 or a 2-3/4 inch backset bore. Between those two ranges it covers nearly every residential and multi-family interior opening you'll meet.
2) Do I have to know the backset before ordering the Schlage F40 Bowery knob?
No. The F40 ships with the 16-080 spring latch, which is dual-option and adjusts to either a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, the two backsets used on bored doors. The lock is also non-handed, so there is no left or right hand to specify. You pick finish and rose design, not handing or backset.
3) Can the Schlage F40 privacy lock be unlocked from the hallway in an emergency?
Yes, and that is the point of a bed and bath privacy function. The button locks from inside; from the outside it opens with a small circular tool pushed into the knob face. Turning the inside knob also releases the button, so nobody gets shut in. For a property manager or an assisted living operator, that emergency release is the difference between a service call and a drilled-out lock.
4) Is the Schlage F40 keyed, and can I get keys for it?
No. The F40 is a non-keyed privacy lock, so there is no cylinder and no key. It secures a bedroom or bathroom door from the inside only. If you need a keyed entry knob on the same door style, you want a keyed function in the Schlage F Series instead, not this one.
5) Will the Schlage F40 latch into the strike plate already in my door frame?
Probably, if the existing prep is standard. The F40 latch has a 1/2 inch throw with a 1 x 2-1/4 inch faceplate and 1/4 inch radius corners, and it ships with the 10-027 full lip radius strike measuring 2-1/4 x 1-5/8 inches with no box. A frame already prepped for a radius-corner residential strike takes it directly. If your frame has a square-corner strike cutout, you'll be filing the mortise or swapping the strike.
6) Is the Schlage F40 Bowery knob rated for multi-family or hotel guest rooms, not just houses?
It carries ANSI/BHMA A156.2-2017 Commercial Grade 2 as well as A156.39-2015 Residential Grade AAA, with a zinc and steel substrate. That Grade 2 commercial certification is why it turns up in apartment bedrooms, hotel guest baths and assisted living units rather than being limited to single-family use. The ANSI function designation is F76.
7) Will the Schlage F40 work on my front door?
No. The F40 is a non-keyed privacy lock with no cylinder, so it gives you nothing on an exterior opening. For an entry door you want a keyed handleset or a deadbolt: the Delaney Katana handleset is a Grade 2 single cylinder set with interior trim, and the Bravura Savannah, Jacksonville and Austin handlesets are Grade 2 as well. For a deadbolt on its own, the Delaney Traditional 200-B is a Grade 3 single cylinder, cylinder by thumbturn.
8) Is a passage knob the same thing as an F40 privacy knob?
No. The Schlage F40 Bowery is a privacy/bed/bath knob with push-button locking that can be opened from outside with a small circular tool, and turning the inside knob releases the button. The Emtek Select Brass Conical Stem Dark Walnut Knob is a passage/hall/closet function, meaning it latches the door but has no locking mechanism at all. If the door is a bedroom or bathroom that needs to lock from the inside, the passage knob will not do the job; if it is a hall, closet, or pantry door that only needs to stay shut, the passage function is the correct one and the push button would be unused.
9) Can an F40 privacy knob be used on the front entry door?
The Schlage F40 is a non-keyed privacy/bed/bath lockset - it locks with a push button from the inside only and takes no key, so it is an interior door product. For an exterior entry opening, a handleset is the corresponding product: the Delaney Katana DLY-400-KA is a Grade 2 single cylinder handleset with interior trim, matching the F40 on ANSI/BHMA Grade 2, and the Bravura 971-Austin is a Grade 2 single cylinder handleset with a 615 interior plate and 906-Macon interior knob if a knob is wanted on the inside face. Both are keyed from the exterior, which the F40 is not.
10) The specification calls for Grade 2 door hardware. Which of these meet it?
The Schlage F40 Bowery is ANSI/BHMA Grade 2. Among the comparable hardware, the Bravura 913-Savannah, 915-Jacksonville, 971-Austin and 973-Montgomery handlesets are Grade 2, as is the Delaney Katana handleset. The Callan Visconti and Callan Briona handlesets and the Delaney Avino handleset are Grade 3, as are the Delaney Traditional and Contemporary deadbolts, so those sit at a different rating than a Grade 2 spec line. For an institutional or multi-family package where every opening has to carry the same certification, that split is the deciding factor.
11) What finishes and rose styles does the Schlage F40 Bowery knob come in?
Seven finishes: 608 Satin Brass, 618 Bright Nickel, 619 Satin Nickel, 622 Matte Black, 625 Bright Chrome, 626 Satin Chrome and 716 Aged Bronze. Each pairs with one of five rose designs, Kinsler, Addison, Century, Collins or Greyson. That matters if you are matching existing openings in a building: pick the rose shape that matches your entry hardware first, then the finish, because the knob itself is the same Bowery design across all of them.
12) Do I need anything besides the lock itself to finish installing a Schlage F40?
No extra hardware. The F40 set includes the 16-080 spring latch, which has a round drive-in option as well as the faceplate, plus the 10-027 strike. Installation is a 3-step process needing only a screwdriver once the door is bored. The drive-in latch option is the one to know about on a pre-bored slab with no faceplate mortise, it goes straight into the edge bore.
13) The bathroom door needs to lock but the F40 knob will not work for the opening. What else locks an interior door?
The Schlage F40 locks with a push button on the inside knob, no key and no cylinder. If a knob will not suit the opening, a deadbolt is the other way to secure a door from the inside: the Delaney Traditional 200-B and the Delaney Contemporary 200-LTR are both Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolts in a cylinder x thumbturn function, so they turn from the inside with a thumbturn and take a key from the outside. That is a different security model than the F40 - keyed from one side rather than a button anyone can release with a circular tool - and a deadbolt does not latch the door, so it is added alongside a knob or lever rather than replacing one.
14) What is the option if the opening needs credential access instead of a privacy button?
The Schlage F40 Bowery is a mechanical, non-electronic cylindrical lockset - the only control is the push button on the inside knob. When an opening in the same building needs access control rather than privacy, the Paxton PaxLock Pro PAX-900-620WT-US is a battery powered lever latch lock with a dual frequency reader at 13.56 MHz and 2.4 GHz, Bluetooth, AES128 encryption, UL, FCC and ISED, for a 1-3/4 inch door thickness. Note the door range: the F40 covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, so on a 1-3/8 inch interior door the mechanical knob fits where the PaxLock's stated thickness does not.
15) Is the Schlage F40 an electronic or smart lock?
No, it's a purely mechanical cylindrical lockset, no batteries, no reader, no wiring. If the job actually calls for credentialed access on an interior door, that is a different product entirely, such as the Paxton PaxLock Pro Galaxy lever, a battery powered dual frequency 13.56 MHz and 2.4 GHz reader lock for 1-3/4 inch doors. The F40 is the mechanical answer where you just need the room to lock from inside.
