Schlage Residential J170 BRW 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does a Schlage J170 Broadway half dummy lever actually do? Does it latch?
No latch, no bore-through mechanism. The J170 Broadway is a dummy: inactive trim for one side of the door, used as a door pull or as matching trim on the inactive leaf of a pair. The lever is fixed, it doesn't rotate to retract anything, because there is no latch behind it. If you need a handle that operates a latch on a door that never locks, you want a passage lockset instead.
2) Is the Broadway dummy lever handed? Do I have to order left or right?
Non-handed, so one part covers both sides. You do not specify a hand when ordering the J170 Broadway. That is worth knowing if you are comparing it to a decorative half dummy like the Baldwin Estate 5103, which is sold as separate left hand and right hand parts.
3) I need the dummy lever on a closet door to match my other Schlage levers. What do I have to specify?
Two choices on the order: finish and rose. Finishes are 619 Satin Nickel, 622 Matte Black, 625 Bright Chrome, 626 Satin Chrome, and 716 Aged Bronze. Rose design is Kinsler or Collins, and every finish is offered in both. Match the finish number and the rose shape to the working locks already on your other doors and the dummy will read as the same set.
4) Half dummy versus full dummy pair, which do I order for a double door?
Depends on how many sides need a handle. The J170 Broadway is a half dummy, one lever for one face of the door, which is what you want on the inactive leaf of a pair or on a closet door with no back side handle. If you need a lever on both faces, order a dummy pair such as the Emtek Arts and Crafts or Cortina dummy pairs, which are sold as pairs.
5) I want a lever on a hall or closet door that actually opens the door, not a fixed one. What should I buy instead of the J170?
A passage set, not a dummy. The J170 Broadway lever does not move and does not operate a latch. For a door that needs to open and close but never lock, look at a passage function leverset: the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 non-handed passage lever, the Hager 2510 with Withnell lever is Grade 2 passage for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, and the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton is a Grade 3 passage lever for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.
6) What is the closest equivalent to the Schlage J170 Broadway half dummy lever in a Grade 2 commercial line?
The BEST 7KC Series 1DT single dummy trim cylindrical lever lock is the nearest match on function and grade. Both are non-keyed dummy levers with no latch mechanism, and the 7KC 1DT carries a Grade 2 rating with a medium duty level, the same grade the J170 Broadway carries. The differences are trim family and lever styling: the J170 uses the Broadway lever on a Kinsler or Collins rose, while the 7KC is a commercial trim line.
7) Which dummy lever should I use on a high traffic opening instead of the Schlage J170?
For a heavier duty opening, the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy trim cylindrical lever lock is a Grade 1 heavy duty non-keyed dummy, and the Accentra 455LN Augusta from the 5400 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty single dummy cylindrical lever. Both step above the Grade 2 rating the J170 Broadway carries while keeping the same dummy trim function, so the opening still gets a pull with no latch and no cylinder.
8) I need the door to actually latch, not just have a pull. What takes the place of the Broadway J170?
A dummy lever like the J170 Broadway is inactive trim for one side of the door and provides no latching at all. If the door has to latch, a passage lever is the swap: the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical passage lever with a non-handed design, the Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 cylindrical passage/closet lever in the 5300 Series, and the Hager 2510 is a Grade 2 passage cylindrical lever with the Withnell design fitting doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. All three latch the door without a key.
9) Is a single dummy the same thing as a half dummy, and do I need to specify a hand?
A half dummy and a single dummy both mean trim on one face of the door only, with no latch. The J170 Broadway is non-handed, so one part number covers a left or right swing. Not every dummy lever works that way: the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy with the 5048 rose is sold as a distinct left hand part and a distinct right hand part, so that one has to be ordered to the swing. Check handing before you order a dummy lever from a decorative line.
10) For an institutional corridor, is a Grade 2 dummy lever the right specification?
The J170 Broadway is a Grade 2 residential lever with a dummy function. Institutional corridors and fire rated openings usually call for Grade 1 with a fire rating: the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty non-handed passage cylindrical lock with a fire rating covering doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant fire rated passage/closet lever for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. If the opening genuinely only needs inactive trim, the BEST 9K 1DT is the Grade 1 heavy duty dummy in that tier.
11) Which lever do I use on a bathroom or bedroom door where the Broadway dummy will not do?
A dummy lever such as the J170 Broadway has no locking mechanism at all, so it cannot serve a bathroom or bedroom. For privacy, the Hager 2540 is a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock with the Withnell lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton is a Grade 3 privacy lever set for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever uses the 5048 rose. Any of these gives an interior thumbturn the dummy does not have.
12) Does a half dummy lever need a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset bore in the door?
Neither, in the usual sense. A half dummy mounts to the door face with screws and no latch, so backset is not the driving dimension the way it is on a working lock. The J Series latches themselves are dual backset and fit either 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch prep, which matters when you are matching the J170 dummy to working J Series locks elsewhere in the same job and want one latch to cover both preps.
13) What grade is the Schlage J170 Broadway lever, and is it good enough for apartment turnovers?
Grade 2, in the residential J Series. For multifamily interior doors, closets, and inactive leaves of double doors that is the normal spec. Bear in mind a dummy carries no cycle load anyway, it's a pull. If your standard is Grade 1 dummy trim, the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy is the heavy duty option.
14) Does the J170 take a key or a Schlage C keyway cylinder?
No cylinder at all. The J170 Broadway is non-keyed, and being a dummy there is nothing for a key to operate. If you need a keyed lever on the same door, that is a different function in the line. Locksmiths standardizing on Schlage C should note there is no keying decision to make on this part.
15) Can I use a Schlage J170 dummy lever on a fire rated door?
A dummy is trim only, with no latch, so it does not provide the latching a fire door assembly relies on. Where a rated opening needs a functioning lock, choose a lock whose rating is stated, such as the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock, which is fire rated and covers 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch doors, or the Corbin Russwin CL3110 Grade 1 passage lock for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors.
16) I have a pair of French doors and need trim on both leaves. Does the J170 Broadway cover that?
The J170 Broadway is a half dummy, meaning inactive trim for one side of the door, so a double door needs two of them or a dummy sold as a pair. Emtek sells dummy leversets in pair form, including the Arts and Crafts lever dummy pair, the Hammered lever dummy pair, and the Cortina lever dummy pair from the Classic Brass line. Those ship as two levers for a double opening; the Broadway is ordered per side.
17) Can I substitute a passage lever for the Schlage J170 Broadway if I only want a pull?
They are not interchangeable. The J170 Broadway is inactive trim for one side of the door with no latch, so the door swings free and stays wherever it is pushed. A passage lever such as the Accentra 4601LN with Augusta trim, a Grade 2 passage/closet cylindrical lever in the 4600 Series, or the Design Hardware J75 flat lever, a Grade 2 passage lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors, throws a latch that holds the door closed. Choose the dummy when the door is held by a magnetic catch or roller catch, and a passage lever when the latch itself has to keep the door shut.
18) Does anything in the same style family as the Broadway lever take a key?
The Broadway J170 is non-keyed and has no cylinder, so it cannot be keyed into a master system. When one door on a run of matching trim needs to lock, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever is a Grade 2 lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different on a 2-3/8 inch backset for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever lockset with a deadlocking latchbolt for the same door range. Both share the Schlage C keyway family, so they key alongside existing Schlage C cylinders.
19) Which passage lever pairs with the J170 Broadway dummy on the doors in the same unit that need to latch?
On a run where some doors take a dummy pull and others need a working latch, the Bravura passage leversets keep one trim look across both: the Atlanta with round trim, the Orlando with round trim, and the Miramar with round trim in US4 satin brass are all Grade 2 passage leversets, and the Tampa with square trim is a Grade 2 passage leverset for square-rose openings. The J170 Broadway itself is offered on a Kinsler rose and a Collins rose in satin nickel, matte black, bright chrome, satin chrome, and aged bronze.
20) Is the Schlage Broadway dummy electronic or does it work with a keypad?
Purely mechanical, no electronics and no keypad. If the opening needs code entry, that is a different product entirely, such as the Delaney LP250 electronic keypad leverlock or the Lockey 1150 mechanical keypad lever set, which fits 1-1/8 to 2 inch doors.
21) What tools and door prep does installing the Broadway half dummy take?
Minimal. It mounts to the door face with a screwdriver, no cross bore for a latch and no strike to mortise, since there is no latch in a dummy. Mark from the template so the lever lines up with the working levers on the neighbouring doors, then secure the mounting hardware. On a retrofit into an existing 2-1/8 inch bore you will still see the hole behind the rose, so check the rose covers your prep.
22) What is the difference between the J170 Broadway dummy and a keypad leverset for a rental unit?
They solve different problems. The J170 Broadway is a mechanical, non-electronic dummy that provides a pull only. The Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock, the Emtek Classic keypad leverset is a coded leverset in the Classic line, and the Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with double combination for doors 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch. Those control entry by code; the Broadway dummy controls nothing and is used where the trim only has to match.
