Schlage Residential FC21 SWA 626 KIN – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Schlage FC21 Swanson knob a passage lock or a privacy lock?
It is both, depending on how you set it up. The FC21 Swanson ships working as passage by default, and you insert the privacy pushbutton on the interior side to convert it to privacy. Once converted, it can still be opened from outside with a small emergency unlock tool, which is what you want on a bathroom or bedroom door. That means one part number covers both the hall and closet doors and the bed and bath doors in a unit.
2) Will the FC21 Swanson knob fit a 1-3/8 inch interior door?
Yes. The FC21 covers door thicknesses from 1-3/8 inches up to 1-3/4 inches, so it works on both the thinner older interior doors and standard 1-3/4 inch slabs without a separate spindle kit.
3) Do I need to know the backset before I order this Schlage knob?
No. The FC21 ships with a dual backset latch that fits either a 2-3/8 inch or a 2-3/4 inch backset, which are the two backsets you will find on residential doors. For property managers buying across a building with mixed prep, that is one SKU instead of two.
4) Will this Schlage knob latch into the strike plate already in my door frame?
It has a 1/2 inch throw spring latch with a 1 x 2-1/4 inch faceplate, 1/4 inch radius corners, and a 1 inch housing diameter. The strike supplied is a full lip radius corner strike, 1-5/8 x 2-1/4 inches. If your existing frame has a square corner strike or a different lip, use the included strike rather than the old one, since the faceplate and strike are radius corner.
5) Is the Schlage FC21 rated for a fire door?
The FC21 is available UL Listed for 90 minute fire door applications. If the opening is a rated door, specify the UL Listed version when ordering rather than assuming any FC21 covers it.
6) Is the FC21 keyed, and can I key it to my existing Schlage C keys?
The FC21 Swanson in passage/privacy form is non-keyed. There is no cylinder and no key, only the interior pushbutton. If you need an entry or keyed function on that opening, you need a different lock; this one is for interior hall, closet, bed, and bath doors.
7) Is this Schlage knob good enough for a commercial corridor or office door?
No. The FC21 is a residential lock, Grade 2, and it is scoped to homes and multi-family units. For a commercial opening look at a Grade 1 cylindrical passage lock such as the Falcon K101, which covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors and is fire rated, or the Corbin Russwin CL3110 Grade 1 vandal resistant passage lever for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. Commercial jobs also generally call for a lever rather than a knob for ADA reasons.
8) I want a lever instead of a knob for these bedroom doors. What else could I buy?
The FC21 Swanson is a knob, not a lever. For a residential lever at a similar grade, the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever covers 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors at Grade 3, and the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever matches it on the hall and closet side. If you want to stay at Grade 2, the Hager 2510 passage lever handles 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors and the Hager 2540 privacy lever covers the same thickness range. Note those are separate passage and privacy part numbers, where the FC21 does both.
9) What is the closest knob alternative to the Schlage FC21 Swanson for a bedroom or bath door that needs privacy only?
The Schlage FC21 Swanson knob ships as a passage lock and converts to privacy when the pushbutton is inserted on the interior side, so one part covers both hall and bath doors. If you want a dedicated privacy knob with no conversion step, the Arrow MK02-TA is a privacy function cylindrical knob lock with the Tudor knob design, non-keyed, and it carries a fire rating. Note the Arrow is specified for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, while the Schlage FC21 covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, so confirm your door thickness before swapping.
10) I need a lever instead of a knob for ADA compliance on a hall door - what replaces the Schlage FC21 Swanson?
The FC21 Swanson is a knob, so for a lever you need a different part. In the same Grade 2 passage class, the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 cylindrical passage lever lock with a non-handed design, and the Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 cylindrical lever in passage/closet function. If the opening is 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch stock, the Hager 2510 is a Grade 2 passage lever with the Withnell design and covers that range. All three give you a lever pull; none of them include the FC21's pushbutton privacy conversion, so order a separate privacy lever for bath and bedroom doors.
11) The FC21 Swanson is Grade 2 - what is a heavier duty option for a multi-family corridor or common area door?
The Schlage FC21 Swanson is ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 and specified for residential use. For heavier traffic, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage cylindrical lock with non-handed levers, fire rated, and covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. The Dexter C1000 passage is also Grade 1 with clutching levers over a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door range, matching the FC21's door range exactly. Both are lever trim rather than knob trim, and neither offers the FC21's privacy pushbutton conversion.
12) What should I order instead of the Schlage FC21 Swanson if the door needs to lock with a key?
The FC21 Swanson is a non-keyed passage and privacy lock, so it will not take a key. For a keyed opening on a similar door, the Arrow HK11-BB is a turn-pushbutton entrance cylindrical lock with a ball knob and conventional cylinder, specified for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same range as the FC21. In lever trim, the Cal-Royal AG00 is an entrance lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different and a 2-3/8 inch backset over that same door range, and the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt for doors that must stay locked at all times.
13) My doors are 2 inches thick - will the Schlage FC21 Swanson fit, and what do I use if not?
No. The Schlage FC21 Swanson is rated for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, so a 2 inch door is outside its range. For passage function on thicker stock, the Arrow GL01 Sierra lever is a Grade 2 non-keyed passage lock specified for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage/closet lever, fire rated, for the same 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch range. The Falcon K101 spans 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch if you want one part number across both thin and thick doors.
14) Is the FC21 Swanson knob handed, or does one part work on both left and right doors?
Non-handed. The same lock installs on a left or right hand door, so you do not need to determine swing before ordering and a single stocked unit covers any opening in the building.
15) Can I use the FC21 in a bored hole with no faceplate mortise?
Yes. The supplied 16-600 latch is a dual option latch, usable as a round faceplate latch or as a drive-in. The drive-in form goes straight into the 1 inch bore with no chiseling for a faceplate, which speeds up a turn on a unit where the edge prep is clean.
16) What finishes and rose styles does the Swanson knob come in?
Five finishes: 619 Satin Nickel, 622 Matte Black, 625 Bright Chrome, 626 Satin Chrome, and 716 Aged Bronze. Each pairs with a choice of five rose designs, Century, Collins, Greene, Howe, and Kinsler, so you can match the knob to what is already on the other openings in the unit without changing the lock itself.
17) Can I use a dummy trim in place of the Schlage FC21 Swanson on a closet or inactive door?
Only where the door does not need to latch. The Schlage FC21 Swanson is a working cylindrical lock with a live latch and a privacy pushbutton, so it holds the door closed. A dummy is a fixed pull with no latch at all - the Callan Bentley BN5051 is a Grade 2 dummy lever, and the BEST 7KC single dummy trim is a Grade 2 medium duty non-keyed dummy lever. Use a dummy on the inactive leaf of a pair or a ball-catch closet door, and keep the FC21 where the door has to latch or close off a bath.
18) What is a decorative alternative to the Schlage FC21 Swanson for a high-end residential interior?
The Baldwin Estate 5103 line covers the same interior door set in a decorative lever with the 5048 rose: 5103 passage for halls and closets, 5103 privacy for bedrooms and baths, and left hand and right hand half dummy versions for inactive leaves. Where the Schlage FC21 Swanson handles both passage and privacy in one knob via the interior pushbutton, the Baldwin set requires you to order the passage and privacy versions separately and to specify hand on the half dummies.
19) The Schlage FC21 Swanson is non-handed - are the comparable passage locks non-handed too?
The Schlage FC21 Swanson is non-handed, so one part works on left and right hand doors. Among the passage alternatives, the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 cylindrical passage lever with a non-handed design, and the Accentra 4601LN is a Grade 2 passage cylindrical lever with Augusta trim. Where handing does matter is decorative half dummy trim such as the Baldwin Estate 5103, which is ordered as a left hand or a right hand part, so those require you to confirm the swing before you order.
20) Is a keypad lever a substitute for the Schlage FC21 Swanson on an interior door?
Generally no, and for different reasons depending on the door. The Schlage FC21 Swanson is a mechanical, non-electronic knob that passes freely and converts to privacy with a pushbutton, which is what a bedroom, bath, hall or closet door needs. A keypad unit like the Delaney LP250 electronic keypad leverlock or the Lockey 1150 mechanical keypad lever set, which covers 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors, is built to restrict entry by code. Use the keypad on a storage room, office or unit entry, and keep the FC21 on the interior openings that only need privacy.
21) What passage lock should I standardize on across an institutional facility instead of the Schlage FC21 Swanson?
The FC21 Swanson is specified as a residential Grade 2 lock, which suits apartments and interior unit doors. For a facility standard, the Falcon T101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage lever with pressure release technology, and the Design Hardware X75 is a Grade 1 passage lever lockset with a flat lever for 1-3/4 inch doors. If a patient or utility room needs an asylum function on the same line, the Dexter C1000 asylum F87 is Grade 1 over a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch range, which lets you keep one series across mixed functions.
22) I need a matching knob on a closet door that does not need to latch. Does the FC21 cover that?
The FC21 is a latching lock, so on a closet with a roller or ball catch you would want a dummy trim instead. The FC21 itself has no dummy version in the Swanson range; for dummy trim look at options like the Callan Bentley Grade 2 dummy lever or the BEST 7KC single dummy trim. Those are levers, so they will not visually match a Swanson knob, but they will handle the non-latching opening.
23) Is the Schlage FC21 electronic or does it need any wiring?
Purely mechanical. The FC21 Swanson is a cylindrical lock with no electronics, no wiring, and no batteries. Install is a screwdriver job. If you are after a keypad on that opening instead, that is a different category of lock entirely.
