Schlage Residential J170 LAS 716 RH – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does a Schlage J170 half dummy lever actually do, and does it latch?
No latch at all. The J170 LaSalle is dummy trim: a lever fixed to one face of the door with no latchbolt, no cylinder and no turning mechanism. It's there as a pull, or to match the look of working levers elsewhere in the room. Function description on record is inactive trim for one side of the door, used as a door pull or as matching inactive trim. If you need the door to stay shut on its own, you want a passage or privacy lock instead.
2) Do I need to drill a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 backset for a J170 half dummy?
Neither, in the usual sense. A half dummy has no latch to run into the door edge, so there's no backset bore to cut for the trim itself. The 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inch backset options and the 1 x 2-1/4 inch latch quoted on the J Series apply to the functioning locks in the family. On the dummy you're mounting to the door face only.
3) Why does the Schlage J170 dummy lever ask for left hand or right hand if the rest of the J Series is non-handed?
Because a dummy lever is a fixed casting, it points one way and can't be flipped. You order LH or RH for the J170 to match which side the lever swings toward on your door. Both hands are stocked across all five finishes: 605 Bright Brass, 609 Antique Brass, 619 Satin Nickel, 620 Satin Nickel Plated Blackened and 716 Aged Bronze. The functioning J Series locks are non-handed; the dummy trim is where you have to make the call.
4) I have Schlage J Series levers on the other doors in the unit. Will a J170 dummy match them?
That is exactly what it's for. The J170 carries the LaSalle lever design, so on openings where you already run LaSalle trim from the J Series, the dummy reads as the same handle on a door that doesn't need to lock, a closet slab, a fixed leaf, a linen door. Match the finish code as well as the lever style: 605, 609, 619, 620 and 716 are the five offered.
5) I want a lever on a closet door that latches shut. Is the half dummy the right pick?
No, a dummy won't hold the door closed. For a closet or hall door that needs to latch but never lock, you want passage function. Grade 2 passage leversets we carry include the Falcon B101 and the Accentra 5301LN Augusta; the Arrow GL01 Sierra lever is Grade 2 passage but is cut for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors, so check thickness first. Keep the dummy for the fixed leaf or the door that just needs a pull.
6) What is the closest half dummy lever to the Schlage J170 LaSalle if the door needs a Grade 1 dummy trim?
The Schlage J170 LaSalle is a Grade 2 dummy lever providing inactive trim for one side of the door. For a Grade 1 dummy in the same cylindrical lever format, the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy trim lever is a heavy duty Grade 1 non-keyed dummy, and the Accentra 455LN Augusta from the 5400 Series is a heavy duty Grade 1 single dummy cylindrical lever. Both give the same non-functioning pull trim, at the higher ANSI/BHMA grade for corridor and high-traffic openings.
7) Is there a Grade 2 single dummy lever equivalent to the Schlage J170 from another manufacturer?
Yes. The BEST 7KC Series single dummy trim cylindrical lever is a Grade 2 non-keyed dummy at medium duty, and the Callan Bentley BN5051 is a Grade 2 dummy lever. Both match the J170 LaSalle at Grade 2 with dummy function, so any of the three will serve an opening that only needs a fixed lever pull.
8) The opening needs a lever that actually turns and retracts a latch, not a dummy. What replaces the Schlage J170 LaSalle?
The J170 LaSalle is dummy function only, inactive trim used as a door pull or to match live trim on the other leaf. For an operating latch with no lock, use a passage lever: the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 cylindrical passage lever with a non-handed design, the Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 passage/closet lever in the 5300 Series, and the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton is a Grade 3 passage lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. Any of those latch the door; the J170 does not.
9) The bathroom door needs a lever that locks from the inside. Is the Schlage J170 LaSalle the wrong part?
Yes. The J170 LaSalle is non-keyed dummy trim with no latch action at all. For a bed or bath door, the Hager 2540 is a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock with the Withnell lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with the 5048 rose covers the same function in a decorative line. Both give a push-button or turn-button privacy lock the dummy trim cannot.
10) The door is 2 inches thick. Will the Schlage J170 LaSalle work, and what fits if not?
The J170 LaSalle covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, so a 2 inch leaf is outside its range. The Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever and the Deltana 6201 Manchester lever entry both take doors up to 2 inch, and the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lever reaches 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Those are latching functions rather than dummy trim, so confirm the opening actually needs a working lever.
11) The unit door needs to lock with a key. Can the Schlage J170 LaSalle be keyed, or is a different lever needed?
The J170 LaSalle is a non-keyed dummy and takes no cylinder. For a keyed lever on the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door range, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever uses a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different on a 2-3/8 inch backset, and the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt. The Dexter C1000 entry/office lever is a Grade 1 keyed clutching lever over the same door range.
12) I need dummy levers on both leaves of a French door pair. Do I order two J170s?
Two, yes, one left hand and one right hand, since each J170 half dummy covers a single face of a single door. If you would rather buy the pair as one item, the Emtek Arts and Crafts and Emtek Cortina dummy leversets are sold as dummy pairs. Note a dummy pair is normally two levers for the two faces of one door, so read the leaf count before you order.
13) Is a Schlage J170 dummy lever tough enough for apartment turnover work?
For a dummy, yes. The J170 is a Grade 2 residential leverset, which is the middle ANSI/BHMA tier and above the Grade 3 builder-grade levers common in rental stock. It carries no working parts to wear out, so the practical failure point is the mounting screws, not a mechanism. For heavier traffic on a dummy, Grade 1 options exist: the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy trim is Grade 1 heavy duty, and the Accentra 455LN Augusta is a Grade 1 single dummy lever.
14) Can a J170 dummy be keyed or added to my master key system?
No. The J170 is non-keyed and takes no cylinder, so it can't be keyed alike or brought into a masterkey system. The C keyway 5-pin cylinder quoted on the J Series belongs to the keyed functions in the family. If the door needs to lock and key into your existing Schlage C system, look at a keyed J Series function rather than the dummy.
15) What's the difference between the Schlage J170 LaSalle dummy and a Baldwin 5103 half dummy?
Both are half dummy levers you buy handed. The J170 is a Grade 2 residential leverset with the LaSalle lever, offered in five finishes. The Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy comes with the 5048 rose and is ordered as a distinct left hand or right hand item as well. If you're matching an existing Estate 5103 passage or privacy lever on adjacent doors, take the Baldwin dummy so the rose and lever match; if the rest of the openings are Schlage J Series, take the J170.
16) Both sides of the door need a fixed lever pull. Does the Schlage J170 LaSalle cover that, or is a pair required?
The J170 LaSalle is a half dummy, supplying inactive trim for one side of the door only, so two are needed for a double-sided pull. Sold as a pair instead are the Emtek Arts and Crafts lever dummy pair and the Emtek Classic Brass Cortina lever dummy pair, both dummy function shipped for both faces in one part number.
17) The Schlage J170 LaSalle is ordered left hand and right hand. Which other half dummy levers are handed the same way?
The J170 LaSalle is non-handed by design but is ordered LH or RH so the lever throw matches the leaf. The Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy is ordered the same way, as a left hand 5103 LDM or a right hand 5103 RDM, each with the 5048 rose. By contrast the BEST 7KC single dummy trim is catalogued as one Grade 2 non-keyed dummy without a hand call-out.
18) A classroom or storeroom door was specified with the Schlage J170 LaSalle. Is that the right lever for a school?
The J170 LaSalle is residential dummy trim with no locking function, so it suits a closet face or a matching inactive leaf rather than a controlled opening. For classroom and institutional doors the Dexter C1000 classroom lever is Grade 1 keyed clutching for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the Dexter C1000 classroom security lever adds the second cylinder, and the Cal-Royal AG03 classroom lever from the AG Series uses a 6-pin Schlage C keyway on a 2-3/4 inch backset.
19) Is the Corbin Russwin CL3110 a drop-in alternative to the Schlage J170 LaSalle?
No. The CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage/closet cylindrical lever, fire rated, for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch, so it latches the door and starts where the J170 range ends. The J170 LaSalle is non-keyed dummy trim for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. They serve different openings even though both are non-keyed cylindrical levers.
20) Which lever should replace the Schlage J170 LaSalle on a front entry door?
The J170 LaSalle is inactive trim and will not secure an entry. Entry function levers include the Hager 2525, a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical entry lock for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Cal-Royal AUS00, a Grade 3 entrance/office lever with a solid brass forged body over 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Callan Bennett BN3001R, a Grade 3 entrance leverset supplied with a deadbolt combo. The Deltana Claremont 5851 and Linstead 6431 cover entry function in decorative lever styles.
21) How hard is a Schlage J170 half dummy to install, and what tools do I need?
A screwdriver. The J170 mounts to the door face in three steps with no boring for a latch and no handing setup on the mechanism, since the dummy is fixed. On a new slab you're drilling only for the mounting screws per the Schlage template. Order the correct hand, LH or RH, because that's decided at purchase and not adjustable on the door.
22) Which levers match the Schlage J170 LaSalle half dummy for a closet door that needs a working handle?
Pair the J170 LaSalle dummy trim on the fixed leaf with a passage lever on the active one. Grade 2 passage options include the Accentra 4601LN with Augusta trim, the Arrow GL01 with the Sierra lever, and the Bravura Atlanta, Orlando and Tampa passage leversets, the Tampa carrying square trim and the other two round. The Callan Asheville AH5011 is a Grade 3 passage leverset in satin nickel, a finish the J170 also comes in.
23) The door needs code or keypad entry instead of the Schlage J170 LaSalle lever. What are the options?
The J170 LaSalle is a mechanical, non-electronic dummy lever. For coded access, the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock, the Emtek Classic keypad leverset is an electronic lever 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.
