Schlage Residential F40 MNH 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Schlage F40 Manhattan privacy lever fit a 2-3/8 inch backset, or do I need to order a different one for 2-3/4?
One part covers both. The F40 ships with a dual-backset latch that adjusts to either a 2-3/8 inch or a 2-3/4 inch backset, so you don't pick a backset at the order form. That matters if you're pulling locks across a building where the older doors were bored at 2-3/8 and newer ones at 2-3/4, you stock one SKU instead of two.
2) What door thickness does the Schlage F40 privacy lever work on?
Doors from 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches. That covers the 1-3/8 inch interior doors in most older houses and apartments as well as the 1-3/4 inch doors used on newer and heavier openings, so a bed and bath rollout across a mixed-age building doesn't need two lock types.
3) Does the Schlage F40 privacy lock need to be handed for a left or right hand door?
No handing to specify. The F40 is non-handed, and the latch is a universal latch, so the same lock goes on a left or right swinging door without any parts swap. Order by finish and rose only.
4) How do you get into a bathroom if the Schlage F40 privacy lever is locked from the inside?
Push-button privacy with an outside emergency release. The button on the inside lever locks it, and from the corridor side you release it with a small circular tool pushed into the hole in the outside lever. Turning the inside lever also pops the button, so nobody gets shut in. That emergency access is why this function is the one specified for guest rooms, assisted living, and multi-family bathrooms rather than a keyed lock.
5) Will the Schlage F40 latch line up with the strike already in my door frame?
The F40 latch has a 1/2 inch throw with a 1 x 2-1/4 inch faceplate, 1/4 inch radius corners, and a 7/8 inch housing diameter, and it comes with a matching 10-027 full lip radius strike at 1-5/8 x 2-1/4 inches. If your frame already has a radius corner strike of that size, the new latch drops straight in. If the existing strike is a square corner or a different lip length, use the strike in the box and re-mortise the jamb, or the 1/2 inch throw won't seat cleanly.
6) Is the F40 a keyed lock? Can I key it to match the rest of the unit?
No, and that's by design. The F40 privacy function is non-keyed, there is no cylinder and no keyway, so it cannot be brought into a keying system or a master key schedule. It's the bed and bath lock. If you need a key on that opening, you need a keyed entry or a storeroom function lock, not this one.
7) Is the Schlage F40 privacy lever strong enough for apartment turnover or a hotel guest room?
It carries ANSI/BHMA A156.2-2017 Commercial Grade 2 plus A156.39-2015 Residential Grade AAA, on a zinc and steel build. Grade 2 is the middle commercial tier, above the Grade 3 residential locks and below Grade 1, which is what makes it a reasonable spec for multi-family bed and bath doors and guest rooms rather than a builder-grade lock that gets replaced every couple of tenants.
8) Is the Emtek Select Brass Conical Stem Dark Walnut Knob a substitute for a Schlage F40 Manhattan lever on a bathroom door?
No. The Schlage F40 Manhattan is a privacy/bed/bath lock with push-button locking that can be opened from 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/hall/closet function, which latches the door but does not lock at all. For a bedroom or bathroom that needs to be secured from the inside, the F40 is the correct function; the Emtek passage knob suits a closet, hall, or pantry door where no locking is wanted. The two also differ in operation style: the F40 uses a Manhattan lever, the Emtek uses a knob.
9) The opening is an exterior front door, not a bedroom. What should I order instead of the Schlage F40 Manhattan?
The F40 Manhattan is a non-keyed privacy lock for bed and bath openings, so it has no cylinder and cannot secure an exterior door. For a front door, single cylinder handlesets in the comparable range include the Callan Visconti and Callan Briona, both Grade 3 handlesets with interior trim, and the Delaney Avino 400-AV, also Grade 3 with interior trim. If the rest of the building is being held to the same Grade 2 level as the F40, the Delaney Katana 400-KA single cylinder handleset and the Bravura Savannah, Jacksonville, Austin and Montgomery handlesets are the Grade 2 options. Choose the interior trim to match the F40's lever operation if the interior doors are all levers.
10) I am specifying Grade 2 hardware throughout a multi-family building. What pairs with the Schlage F40 Manhattan on the entry doors?
The Schlage F40 Manhattan carries an ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 rating and covers the interior bedroom and bathroom openings with its privacy function. For the unit entry doors, Grade 2 handlesets in the comparable range include the Bravura 913-Savannah with 615 interior plate and 906-Macon interior knob, the Bravura 915-Jacksonville, the Bravura 971-Austin, the Bravura 973-Montgomery with 672 interior plate and 939-Charlotte interior lever, and the Delaney Katana 400-KA single cylinder handleset with interior trim. All five are Grade 2, so the whole package holds one grade level. Note the interior trim differs: the three Bravura 900-series handlesets listed with the 906-Macon come with a knob inside, while the Bravura 973-Montgomery and the Delaney Katana carry lever trim, which matches the lever operation of the F40.
11) Do I need to buy a latch and strike separately with the Schlage F40, or is everything in the box?
Everything for the door is included: the 16-080 dual-option spring latch (round faceplate or drive-in) and the 10-027 full lip radius strike. Note the strike is supplied with no box, so if your jamb prep expects a dust box behind the strike you'll want to add one. Installation is screwdriver-only otherwise.
12) What finishes and rose styles does the Schlage F40 Manhattan lever come in?
Three finishes, each in two rose shapes. Finishes are 619 Satin Nickel, 625 Bright Chrome, and 626 Satin Chrome. Rose design is Kinsler or Century, and every finish is offered with either rose, so you can match six combinations. All three are silver-tone, so if the rest of the building is on bronze or black, the Manhattan lever won't blend.
13) What is a cheaper alternative to the Schlage F40, and what am I giving up?
The step down is Grade 3 rather than Grade 2. Callan's Visconti and Briona single cylinder handlesets and Delaney's Avino 400-AV handleset are Grade 3, which is the residential tier below the F40's Grade 2 rating. Those are keyed handlesets, not privacy levers, so they're a different opening entirely, not a swap for a bed and bath door. On the F40's own function there is no lower-grade version, you're choosing Grade 2 or choosing a different lock.
14) Can I put the Schlage F40 Manhattan lever on a door that needs electronic access control?
No. The F40 is a mechanical lock with no electronics, no reader, and no credential of any kind. If the opening needs card or phone access, that's a different product, the Paxton PaxLock Pro Galaxy lever latch lock is a battery powered dual frequency reader lock at 13.56 MHz and 2.4 GHz with Bluetooth, sized for a 1-3/4 inch door. Note it fits 1-3/4 inch only, where the F40 spans 1-3/8 to 1-3/4.
15) Can I install the Schlage F40 with a drive-in latch instead of a faceplate?
Both, it's a dual-option latch. The 16-080 comes with a round faceplate and a circular drive-in collar, so you can screw the faceplate into a mortised edge or drive the latch straight into an unmortised bore. That's useful on turnover work where you're swapping locks in doors that were prepped different ways and you don't want to be chiseling jambs.
16) Can a Delaney 200-B single cylinder deadbolt be used instead of a Schlage F40 privacy lock on a bedroom door?
They do different jobs and are not interchangeable. The Schlage F40 is a cylindrical bored lockset with a privacy/bed/bath function and a lever, so it both latches the door and provides push-button privacy from the inside. The Delaney Traditional 200-B is a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with a cylinder x thumbturn function, meaning it is a keyed bolt with no latch and no handle at all. A deadbolt on a bedroom door leaves the door with nothing to hold it closed and requires a key from one side. If a contemporary round trim is preferred over the traditional style, Delaney's equivalent is the 200-LTR, also a Grade 3 cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt.
17) Is a lever better than a knob for accessible bathroom doors in a care facility?
A lever operates with a closed fist or a forearm, a knob requires grasping and twisting, which is why lever trim is the usual choice on assisted living and guest room doors. The Schlage F40 Manhattan is lever trim with push-button privacy and an outside emergency release, and it's non-handed so the same unit works on both swings down a corridor of rooms.
