Schlage Residential F51A SIE 626 KD – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Schlage F51A Siena knob entry lock fit a 1-3/8 inch door, or is it only for 1-3/4?
Both. The F51A is built for a door thickness range of 1-3/8 inches to 1-3/4 inches, which covers the standard 1-3/4 inch exterior slab and the thinner 1-3/8 inch doors common on older interior and lightweight entry openings. No spacer kit or separate part number to specify, one lock covers the range.
2) My doors are bored 2-3/8 backset and some are 2-3/4. Do I have to order the Schlage F51A two different ways?
No. The F51A ships with a dual backset latch that adjusts to either a 2-3/8 inch or a 2-3/4 inch backset, so one part number covers both preps. That matters on a mixed building where the front doors were bored deeper than the rest. The latch is the 16-086 dead latch, supplied in both round face and drive-in form so it drops into a bored hole or a plain drilled edge.
3) Do I need to know the handing before ordering a Schlage F51A knob lock?
No handing required. The F51A is non-handed, so the same lock works on a left hand or right hand door, inswing or outswing. Set it on the bench and mount it. For a property manager buying a dozen at once, that means no per-door survey before the order goes in.
4) Will the Schlage F51A latch into the strike plate already in my frame?
Usually, but check the lip. The F51A latch throws 1/2 inch with a 1 x 2-1/4 inch faceplate, so it lines up with the standard cylindrical prep in most wood frames. It comes with a 10-027 full lip radius strike measuring 2-1/4 by 1-5/8 inches, no box behind it. If your frame currently has a square corner strike, the radius corner on the supplied plate will not drop into that mortise without touching it up, and a hollow metal frame with an existing ANSI strike keeps its own strike, you just use the latch.
5) Can I get several Schlage F51A locks keyed alike so one key opens all of them?
Yes, keying is a required choice on the order. Pick KD for keyed different, which is the standard, or KA for keyed alike across multiple locks. There is also a no-cylinder option if you are supplying your own. If you are matching an existing key system, there is a key code field on the order to enter your code. The cylinder is 5-pin in Schlage C keyway with two keys per lock, so it keys into an existing C keyway system.
6) Is the Schlage F51A knob lock rated for a fire door?
The F51A function is available UL Listed for 3-hour fire doors. That listing covers the F51A along with the F10, F80 and F40 (CSV only) functions in the F Series. It also carries ANSI/BHMA A156.2-2017 Commercial Grade 2 and A156.39-2015 Residential Grade AAA certification, which is why it turns up on corridor and unit-entry doors in multi-family work rather than just houses.
7) What is a Grade 2 alternative to the Schlage F51A Siena knob entry lock when the opening needs a handleset instead of a knob?
The Schlage F51A Siena is a cylindrical bored lockset with a knob trim, Grade 2, single cylinder keyed entry. If the entry door calls for a full exterior handleset rather than a knob, the Delaney Katana Grade 2 single cylinder handleset with interior trim is also Grade 2 and also single cylinder. Bravura carries Grade 2 handlesets as well - the 913-Savannah with 615 interior plate and 906-Macon interior knob, the 915-Jacksonville, and the 971-Austin all pair an exterior handleset grip with an interior knob, so the inside of the door still operates like the F51A knob.
8) Can a Delaney Traditional or Contemporary deadbolt be used in place of a Schlage F51A knob entry lock?
No, they do different jobs on the door. The Schlage F51A Siena is a keyed entry bored lockset: it carries the knob that retracts the latch and holds the door closed, locked by key outside or by the interior turnbutton. The Delaney Traditional 200-B and the Delaney Contemporary 200-LTR round deadbolt are Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolts, cylinder by thumbturn, with no latch or handle - a deadbolt bolts the door but does not latch it. On an entry opening they go above the F51A as a second point of security, not instead of it.
9) What replaces a Schlage F51A knob entry lock when the door needs credential access instead of a mechanical key?
The Schlage F51A Siena is a mechanical lock - no electronics, keyed with a 5-pin C keyway cylinder and locked by key or interior turnbutton. When an opening has to be controlled by card or phone instead, the Paxton PaxLock Pro Galaxy lever latch lock is a battery powered lever lock with a dual frequency reader at 13.56 MHz and 2.4 GHz, Bluetooth, AES128 encryption, for 1-3/4 inch door thickness, UL, FCC and ISED listed. It is a lever rather than a knob, and it takes credentials rather than a C section key, so an opening switched to it comes off the mechanical keying schedule.
10) Does the Schlage F51A lock itself when the door shuts, or do I have to key it every time?
It does not self lock. Keyed entry function: turn the interior turnbutton before you leave and pull the door shut, or lock it from outside with the key. Opening the door from the inside releases the button, so you cannot walk out and leave it unlocked behind you by accident, and you cannot lock yourself out by simply closing the door. For a rental unit that is the behavior most tenants expect on the knob itself.
11) I want a knob lock and a deadbolt on the same door. What do I add to a Schlage F51A?
The F51A is the knob lockset only, single cylinder keyed entry. For a deadbolt above it you need a separate lock with its own bore. The Delaney Traditional 200-B and the Contemporary round 200-LTR are both Grade 3 single cylinder cylinder-by-thumbturn deadbolts. If you want the deadbolt to work on the same key as the knob, order the F51A with the KA keying option and a key code, and confirm the deadbolt cylinder is a matching keyway before you commit.
12) What finishes does the Schlage F51A Siena knob come in, and will it match the rest of my building?
Seven finishes on the Siena knob with the Alden rose: 605 bright brass, 609 antique brass, 619 satin nickel, 622 matte black, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, and 716 aged bronze. Those are BHMA finish numbers, so if the doors you already have are marked 626 or 619 on the existing hardware, order the same number and it matches across the fleet. Every finish uses the Alden rose, so the escutcheon footprint on the door is identical whichever one you pick.
13) What is the F51A made of, and will it hold up on a high-traffic apartment door?
Zinc and steel substrate, certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.2-2017 Commercial Grade 2. Grade 2 is the middle commercial tier, above residential Grade 3 and below the Grade 1 used on institutional openings. For unit entries, common-area doors and multi-family turnover work, that is the level most specs land on. If the opening sees genuine institutional traffic, a school or hospital corridor, specify Grade 1 mortise or heavy-duty cylindrical instead.
14) What comes in the box with a Schlage F51A, and what else do I need to buy to install it?
Everything for the opening is in the box: the Siena knob assembly inside and out, the 5-pin C keyway cylinder with two keys, the 16-086 dual option dead latch (round face and drive-in both supplied), and the 10-027 full lip radius strike at 2-1/4 by 1-5/8 inches. No strike box is included. On a door already bored for a cylindrical lock it is a screwdriver job. On a fresh slab you need the door prep drilled and routed for the latch face first.
15) Which entry locks besides the Schlage F51A carry a Grade 2 rating for a multi-family standardization spec?
The Schlage F51A Siena knob entry lock is ANSI/BHMA Grade 2. Among the alternatives, the Delaney Katana single cylinder handleset and the Bravura handlesets - 913-Savannah, 915-Jacksonville, 971-Austin and 973-Montgomery - are also Grade 2. The Callan Visconti and Briona handlesets and the Delaney Avino handleset are Grade 3, so a facility standard written to Grade 2 would exclude them.
16) How do the Callan Visconti and Briona handlesets compare to the Schlage F51A entry knob for a rental unit front door?
The Schlage F51A Siena is Grade 2 and keys with a 5-pin C keyway cylinder, which matters when a property manager wants the whole building on one key section. The Callan Visconti and Callan Briona are both single cylinder handlesets with interior trim, and both are Grade 3. All three lock the door with a key from outside and a single cylinder from inside, so the operation on the door is the same idea; the difference is the certification level and the exterior form, grip versus knob.
17) What knob should be ordered for an interior door that does not need to lock, if the Schlage F51A is going on the entry?
The Schlage F51A Siena is keyed, single cylinder, for the door that has to lock. For a hall, closet, or pass-through door where no key is wanted, the Emtek Select Brass Conical Stem Dark Walnut knob is a passage function knob - it turns and latches but has no cylinder and no key. Pairing them puts the keyed lock only where security is needed and a plain latching knob everywhere else.
18) Can the Schlage F51A knob lock be tied into an access control or fob system?
No. The F51A is a purely mechanical, non-electronic keyed lockset, key outside and turnbutton inside. There is no reader, no credential and nothing to wire. If you need fob or Bluetooth credentials on that 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 and Bluetooth, for a 1-3/4 inch door.
