Schlage Residential FC21-PEN-625-KIN – Frequently Asked Questions

1) My doors are bored at 2-3/4 inch backset, some at 2-3/8. Do I have to order two different FC21 locks?
One part number covers both. The FC21 ships with a dual backset latch that adjusts to either a 2-3/8 or a 2-3/4 inch backset, so a property manager doing a mixed building orders a single SKU and sets the latch at the door. Those are the two usual residential backsets, so you are unlikely to hit a hole it will not reach.
2) Is the Schlage FC21 Pennant a passage lock or a privacy lock?
Both, and you choose at install. Out of the box it works as a passage set, latching the door with no locking at all. Insert the privacy pushbutton on the interior side and it becomes a bed/bath privacy lock. That means one lock covers a hall closet and a bathroom in the same unit, decided by whether you fit the button.
3) How does staff get into a bathroom if someone locks the FC21 privacy lever from inside?
When set up as a privacy lock, the FC21 can be released from the outside with a small emergency unlock tool. That is the feature that matters for assisted living, hospitality and student housing, where somebody has to be able to open a locked bathroom without drilling the lock off. It is a non-keyed lock, so there is no cylinder and no key to manage.
4) Will the FC21 latch drop into my existing door prep and strike?
The FC21 comes with a 1 x 2-1/4 inch latch face with a 1/4 inch radius corner, a 1 inch housing diameter, and a 1/2 inch throw, plus a circular drive-in option in the box. The strike supplied is a 1-5/8 x 2-1/4 inch full lip radius strike. If your frame is already cut for a radius-corner face of that size you are replacing like for like, if the old face was square corner you will either need to file the mortise or use the drive-in latch, which needs no face mortise at all.
5) What ANSI grade is the Schlage FC21 Pennant lever certified to?
ANSI/BHMA A156.2-2017 Grade 2, and ANSI/BHMA A156.39-2015 Residential Grade AAA. Grade 2 is the mid-duty tier, which suits apartment interiors, guest rooms and dorm rooms. For a high-traffic commercial corridor or a school classroom, a Grade 1 cylindrical passage lock such as the Falcon K101 or the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is the heavier option.
6) Can I use a dummy lever in place of the Schlage FC21 Pennant lever on a closet door?
No. The FC21 Pennant lever is a cylindrical lock with a working latch, so it holds the door closed and retracts when the lever is turned. A dummy trim is a fixed pull with no latch behind it, used on inactive leaves and false fronts. Dummy options in the same lever look include the BEST 7KC single dummy trim, Grade 2 medium duty, the BEST 9K 1DT single dummy trim, Grade 1 heavy duty, the Accentra 455LN Augusta Grade 1 single dummy, the Callan Bentley Grade 2 dummy lever, and the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy in left hand and right hand. Order a dummy only when nothing needs to latch.
7) What should I order instead of the Schlage FC21 Pennant lever if the door needs to lock with a key?
The FC21 Pennant lever is non-keyed, so it cannot secure an office, storeroom, or entry opening. For a keyed opening on a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever is Grade 2 with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different on a 2-3/8 inch backset, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt, and the Dexter C1000 entry/office lever is Grade 1 clutching and keyed. The Hager 2525 entry lever and Hager 2580 storeroom lever with the Withnell lever are Grade 2 for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
8) What is the closest equivalent to the Schlage FC21 Pennant lever if I need a Grade 2 non-keyed passage lever from another brand?
The Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 cylindrical passage lever lock with a non-handed design, which lines up with the FC21 Pennant lever's Grade 2 rating and non-handed build. The Accentra 5301LN Augusta is another Grade 2 cylindrical lever in passage/closet function, and the Arrow GL01 with the Sierra lever is a Grade 2 non-keyed passage cylindrical lock. All three cover the same passage duty as the FC21, so the choice comes down to lever style and trim rather than function.
9) The FC21 Pennant lever will not fit a 2 inch thick door - what passage lever covers that thickness?
The FC21 Pennant lever is built for doors from 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For a 2 inch door, the Hager 2510 passage lever with the Withnell design 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. The Arrow GL01 Sierra lever passage lock runs 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 passage/closet lever runs 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. Measure the leaf before ordering, since a thick fire-rated or solid-core leaf is the usual reason the FC21 range comes up short.
10) Is a Grade 2 residential lever like the Schlage FC21 enough for a dormitory or high-traffic corridor door, or should I step up?
The FC21 Pennant lever is a Grade 2 lock built for residential service. Where the traffic warrants a heavier lock, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage lock with non-handed levers and a fire rating, the Falcon T101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage lever with pressure release technology, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage/closet lever with a fire rating. Design Hardware also splits the two tiers within one lever style: the J75 flat lever passage set is Grade 2 and the X75 flat lever passage set is Grade 1.
11) If the drawing calls for a fire-rated passage lever, which parts carry that rating alongside the Schlage FC21?
The FC21 Pennant lever is available UL Listed for 90 minute fire door use. Peers listing a fire rating in passage function are the Falcon K101, a Grade 1 heavy duty non-handed passage lock for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110, a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage/closet lever for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. On the Kwikset side, the 200DL-RCALFD Delta passage lock uses a round corner adjustable 20 minute UL latch with a round corner strike, which is a shorter rating than 90 minutes and needs checking against what the door assembly requires.
12) Is the Schlage FC21 lever handed? I have doors swinging both ways down the corridor.
Non-handed. The FC21 Pennant lever installs on a left or right hand door without ordering a hand or reversing parts, so a single order covers a whole floor regardless of swing.
13) Can I use the FC21 Pennant lever on a 90 minute fire rated door?
A UL Listed 90 minute fire door version of the FC21 is offered. The fire listing is a version you have to specify, it is not automatic on every configuration, so state the fire door requirement on the order rather than assuming the standard build carries it.
14) What finishes and rose styles does the Schlage FC21 Pennant lever come in?
Four finishes: 619 Satin Nickel, 622 Matte Black, 625 Bright Chrome and 716 Aged Bronze. Each pairs with a choice of seven rose designs, Camelot, Century, Collins, Greene, Howe, Indy and Kinsler. The rose is the trim plate behind the lever, so it is how you match the FC21 to knobs and deadbolts already hanging in the building without changing the lock itself.
15) Do I need to buy a strike and latch separately with the Schlage FC21?
No, both are in the box. The FC21 ships with the 16-600 spring latch, dual option in round face or drive-in form, and the 10-027 full lip radius strike at 2-1/4 by 1-5/8 inches. All you supply is a screwdriver and a properly bored door.
16) Is there a Grade 2 passage lever alternative to the Schlage FC21 Pennant if I want a different lever style?
Several, all Grade 2 passage function. The Accentra 5301LN Augusta and the 4601LN carry Augusta trim, the Falcon B101 is a non-handed medium duty passage lever, and Bravura offers the Atlanta and Orlando with round trim or the Tampa with square trim. Where the FC21 differs is the dual function, it converts to privacy with a pushbutton, which the straight passage sets do not do.
17) Is the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever a straight swap for the Schlage FC21?
Close on fit, not on rating. The Kwikset Breton passage lever covers the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door range, but it is Grade 3 where the FC21 is Grade 2, and it is passage only. If you want privacy on the same trim in the Kwikset line that is a separate part, the 300BRNL Breton privacy set. The FC21 covers both functions in one.
18) I only need a hall or closet lever and do not need the privacy button - what is the simpler option next to the Schlage FC21?
The FC21 Pennant lever ships as passage by default and converts to privacy when the pushbutton is inserted on the interior side, so it carries hardware you will not use on a closet door. Straight passage-only levers include the Bravura Atlanta, Orlando, and Tampa round and square trim passage leversets, all Grade 2, the Bravura Miramar passage leverset in US4 satin brass, and the Callan Asheville Grade 3 passage leverset in satin nickel. The Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever is a Grade 3 passage set for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the same leaf range the FC21 covers.
19) I am replacing bed and bath locks and want a dedicated privacy lever rather than the convertible Schlage FC21 - what are the options?
The FC21 Pennant lever reaches privacy by inserting a pushbutton on the interior side, and it can be released from outside with a small emergency unlock tool. Dedicated privacy sets do that job without the conversion step: the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever is Grade 3 for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with the 5048 rose is a privacy set in the same 5103 lever family as the Baldwin passage and dummy versions, and the Arrow MK02-TA is a privacy cylindrical lock with a Tudor knob, non-keyed and fire rated. Note the MK02-TA is a knob, not a lever, if you are matching lever trim across the units.
20) Which lever works instead of the Schlage FC21 Pennant when the room needs a code and no key?
The FC21 Pennant lever is a mechanical, non-electronic lock. When the opening needs coded access with no keys to distribute, the Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with double combination in passage function and fits doors 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch, so no power or wiring is involved. Electronic options include the Delaney LP250 electronic keypad leverlock, Grade 2, and the Emtek Classic keypad leverset.
21) Do I need to specify handing when substituting another passage lever for the Schlage FC21 Pennant?
The FC21 Pennant lever is non-handed, so one part number covers both swings. Among the substitutes, the Falcon B101 and the Falcon K101 are both described as non-handed, so they order the same way. The Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy is sold as separate left hand and right hand part numbers, so a swing has to be confirmed before the order goes in. Get the hand on the purchase order for anything handed, or the wrong lever arrives on a door that is already prepped.
22) For a patient room or asylum-type opening, is the Schlage FC21 Pennant lever the right choice?
The FC21 Pennant lever is a passage and privacy lock, which suits bedroom, bathroom, and hall doors. An asylum or institutional opening calls for that specific function: the Dexter C1000 asylum lock is Grade 1 in the F87 asylum function for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a Grade 2 heavy duty asylum lock with a ball knob and a conventional cylinder in the Schlage C keyway. A classroom door is a different function again, covered by the Dexter C1000 classroom lever, Grade 1 clutching and keyed for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, or the Cal-Royal AG03 classroom lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway on a 2-3/4 inch backset.
23) What is the FC21 lever made of, and will it hold up in a rental turn?
Stainless steel construction, cylindrical chassis, certified to Grade 2 and Residential Grade AAA. That is built for apartment and multi-family interior traffic, bedroom, bath, closet and office doors, rather than a public corridor taking hundreds of cycles a day.
24) I want a matching lever on a closet door that does not latch. Does Schlage FC21 come as a dummy?
The FC21 is a working latching set, passage or privacy, not a dummy trim. For a fixed pull with no latch, look at a dedicated dummy, the Callan Bentley is a Grade 2 dummy lever and the BEST 7KC single dummy trim is a Grade 2 medium duty option. Emtek also does dummy levers in pairs for double doors.
25) Does the Schlage FC21 need power or wiring for the privacy function?
No wiring at all. The FC21 is fully mechanical, the privacy is a pushbutton on the inside rose. If you are after a code-entry lever instead, that is a different product, the Delaney LP250 electronic keypad leverlock or a Lockey 1150 mechanical keypad set, which handles doors 1-1/8 to 2 inches thick.
26) What separates the Accentra 5301LN and 4601LN passage levers from each other as alternatives to the Schlage FC21?
Both are Grade 2 cylindrical lever locks in passage/hall/closet function, the same function class as the FC21 Pennant lever. The 5301LN Augusta belongs to the 5300 Series and the 4601LN, also with Augusta trim, belongs to the 4600 Series. The series is what your purchasing record and any future keying or trim order will reference, so pin that down when standardizing across a building.
