Schlage Residential FC172 HOB 619 KIN – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does a Schlage FC172 Hobson double dummy actually do on a door?
Nothing mechanical. The FC172 Hobson is a non-turning pair of knobs, one on each face, used as a door pull or to match the trim on an inactive leaf. There is no latch, no turn, no key. If you need the door to stay closed you need a latching function instead, and if you only need a knob on one side, a double dummy pair is the wrong order.
2) Do I need to specify handing when I order the Hobson dummy knob?
No handing to call out. The Hobson knob is non-handed, so one part number covers left and right hand doors. That matters on a pair of French doors where you'd otherwise be ordering two different halves, and it is a real difference from half dummy levers like the Baldwin Estate 5103, which are ordered as a left hand or right hand part.
3) I need the closet door to latch shut, not just have a knob. What should I order instead of the FC172?
A dummy won't hold a door closed. For a closet or hall door you want passage function, which latches but never locks. In the same non-keyed family, look at the Falcon B101 Grade 2 passage lever, the Accentra 5301LN Augusta Grade 2 passage lever, or the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever set for a residential Grade 3 option. Keep the FC172 for the inactive leaf or the pull application only.
4) I only need dummy trim on one side of the door - what should I order instead of a double dummy knob pair?
A double dummy covers both faces of the door. For a single face, order a half or single dummy instead. The Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy lever with the 5048 rose comes handed, as a left hand or a right hand unit, so specify the side. The BEST 7KC single dummy trim is a Grade 2 cylindrical lever dummy, and the BEST 9K 1DT single dummy trim is the Grade 1 heavy duty version of the same idea. Callan also lists the Bentley Grade 2 dummy lever.
5) What is the closest dummy knob alternative to the Schlage FC172 Hobson if I need a matching pair for a double door?
The FC172 Hobson is a non-turning pair used as a door pull or matching inactive trim, so a true equivalent has to be sold as a pair rather than a single side. Emtek offers dummy pairs in several trim styles: the Arts and Crafts Lever dummy pair, the Hammered Lever dummy pair, and the Classic Brass Cortina Lever dummy pair. All three carry the dummy function like the FC172, with a lever grip instead of the Hobson knob.
6) The door actually has to latch - what non-keyed knob or lever should I use in place of a dummy set?
A dummy set does not turn and has no latch, so if the door needs to stay shut you want a passage function instead. Non-keyed passage options include the Falcon B101 Grade 2 cylindrical passage lever with a non-handed design, the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, the Arrow GL01 Grade 2 Sierra lever passage lock, and the Accentra 5301LN Augusta Grade 2 passage/closet lever from the 5300 Series. On the residential side, the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever is Grade 3 and fits 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same door range the FC172 covers.
7) Can I put a Schlage FC172 dummy knob on a 90 minute fire door?
Only if you order the UL Listed version. The FC172 is available UL Listed for 90 minute fire door applications, so on a rated opening you have to call that out rather than assume the standard pair carries it. Note that a dummy contributes nothing to latching, and a fire door still needs a positive latching device to do its job.
8) What finishes and rose styles does the Schlage FC172 Hobson knob come in?
Five finishes: 608 satin brass, 618 polished nickel, 619 satin nickel, 622 matte black, and 716 aged bronze. Each pairs with one of seven rose designs, Camelot, Century, Collins, Kinsler, Dalton, Greene and Howe. That's how you match the dummy to the working locksets already hanging on the other doors in a unit, since the rose is what most people notice first.
9) Does a dummy knob care about the 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset on my door?
Backset is not a factor for the FC172. It is a non-turning pair with no latch involved, so it mounts to the door face regardless of what cross bore or backset the door was prepped for. If you are replacing a working knob with this dummy, the existing 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch prep just gets covered by the rose.
10) Is the Schlage FC172 knob durable enough for apartment turnovers?
It carries ANSI/BHMA A156.2-2017 Grade 2 and A156.39-2015 Residential Grade AA, with a stainless steel substrate. Grade 2 is a step above the Grade 3 residential hardware you'd find on a Kwikset 200BRNL Breton or a Callan Asheville leverset, which is the trade-off if you are standardizing a multi-family portfolio on one look.
11) Is the Schlage FC172 Hobson a commercial lockset or residential?
Residential. The F Series FC172 is built for interior residential openings, closets, pantries, French door pairs and decorative trim matching. For a commercial corridor or an institutional facility standardizing on Grade 1, the dummy equivalents are the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy trim or the Accentra 455LN Augusta heavy duty Grade 1 dummy lever.
12) I want a dummy pair in a lever instead of a knob. What are my options?
The Hobson is a knob design, so if the spec on the drawing calls for levers you need a different part. Dummy pairs in lever form include the Emtek Arts and Crafts lever dummy pair, the Emtek Hammered lever dummy pair, and the Emtek Classic Brass Cortina lever dummy pair. Lever trim is also what an accessibility-driven spec typically wants, since a knob requires grasping and twisting.
13) Is a passage lever the same thing as a double dummy knob?
No. The Hobson FC172 double dummy is a non-turning pair, mounted as trim or a pull, with no latch action. A passage set turns and retracts a latch. The Baldwin Estate 5103 family makes the distinction clear within one design: the 5103 is offered as a half dummy, as a passage lever, and as a privacy lever, all with the 5048 rose. If someone spec'd a dummy on the drawing and you order the Baldwin 5103 passage version, the door behaves differently.
14) I need a bath or bedroom door to lock from inside - what replaces a dummy knob there?
A dummy set has no locking action at all, so a privacy function is the substitution. The Arrow MK02-TA is a privacy bed and bath cylindrical lock with a Tudor knob, non-keyed, and it is fire rated, for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. The Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever is Grade 3 and fits 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, matching the FC172 door range. Baldwin also lists the Estate 5103 privacy lever with the 5048 rose.
15) What is a Grade 2 knob dummy versus the medium duty and heavy duty dummy trim used in commercial buildings?
The Hobson FC172 is a residential Grade 2 dummy set. The commercial dummy trim runs on duty level as well as grade: the BEST 7KC 1DT is Grade 2 medium duty, and the BEST 9K 1DT is Grade 1 heavy duty. The Accentra 455LN Augusta dummy is Grade 1 heavy duty as well. All are dummy function; they differ in grade, duty rating, and lever versus knob grip.
16) The opening is a 2 inch thick door - will a Hobson knob dummy work, or do I need something else?
The Hobson FC172 is built for doors from 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For thicker leaves, the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Deltana 6201 Manchester lever entry covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Those are latching functions rather than dummy trim, so match the function your opening calls for as well as the thickness.
17) Can I use a dummy knob set on a closet or storeroom door that staff need to secure?
No - the Hobson FC172 is non-keyed dummy trim, so it neither latches nor locks. For a secured storeroom, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever lockset with a deadlocking latchbolt for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same door range the Hobson covers, and the Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom lock with the Withnell lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
18) We are converting to lever hardware for ADA - what dummy or non-keyed lever matches a Hobson knob opening?
The Hobson FC172 uses a knob. If the changeover is to levers, the dummy-for-dummy swaps are the BEST 7KC single dummy trim lever in Grade 2, the BEST 9K 1DT in Grade 1, and the Callan Bentley Grade 2 dummy lever; Emtek lists lever dummy pairs in the Arts and Crafts, Hammered, and Cortina designs. Where the door also has to latch, the Falcon B101 Grade 2 passage lever is non-handed, as is the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock.
19) Do I have to specify handing when ordering a double dummy knob pair?
The Hobson FC172 is non-handed, so it installs on either swing without a handed order. That is not universal in dummy trim: the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy is sold as a distinct left hand unit and right hand unit, so a Baldwin order needs the hand called out. For fleet ordering across many doors, the non-handed set removes that step.
20) Which look-alike knob sets are not a substitute for a non-turning dummy pair?
Anything with a keyed cylinder or a mechanism behind the rose changes the opening. The Arrow HK11 turn-pushbutton entrance lock with a ball knob and the Arrow MK33 asylum lock with a ball knob both use a conventional cylinder and share the round knob look, but they are entrance and asylum functions, not dummy trim. The Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever uses a 6-pin Schlage C keyway. The Hobson FC172 is non-keyed with no turning action, so none of those drops in as decorative trim.
21) What tools do I need to install a Schlage FC172 dummy pair?
A screwdriver. The FC172 mounts with the supplied hardware, and since there is nothing to key and no latch to set, there is no cylinder work involved. On a door already prepped for a lockset the rose covers the existing prep; on a blank door you drill only for the mounting hardware per the template.
