TownSteel CRX-A-76-630-LH – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the TownSteel CRX-A-76 privacy lock fit a 1-3/8 inch door?
No. The CRX-A-76 is built for 1-3/4 inch doors only, which is the standard commercial thickness. On a 1-3/8 inch door you'd need a lock with a thinner range, such as the Cal-Royal Barrington BA series, which covers 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, or the Falcon K501, which covers 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches.
2) Do I have to specify handing on the TownSteel CRX-A-76?
Yes, handing is part of the order. The CRX-A-76 is built in LH, LHR, RH and RHR. Stand outside the opening: if the hinges are on your left it is left hand, and if the door swings toward you it is the reverse version of that hand. Getting this wrong on a ligature resistant arch trim matters, because the sloped trim has to face the correct direction to shed a ligature.
3) Will the CRX-A-76 drop into my existing ASA strike prep?
It should. The lockset ships with a 1-1/4 by 4-7/8 inch ASA strike, which is the common commercial frame prep, and the latch face plate is 1-1/8 inches. If your frame is already cut for an ASA strike and a 1-1/8 inch face, no new frame prep is needed.
4) Is a privacy function lock the right choice for a behavioral health patient room, or should I use a classroom or storeroom lock?
Privacy is the function for patient bathrooms and sleeping rooms where the occupant locks from inside and staff need an emergency release, not a key. The CRX-A-76 is non-keyed. If the door needs to be locked and unlocked by staff with a key from the corridor, a storeroom or classroom function is the right pick instead, such as the Cal-Royal BA05 storeroom or BA03 classroom lock. The CRX-A-76 is specifically recommended for high-risk areas housing patients at risk.
5) What is the closest Grade 1 cylindrical lock alternative to the TownSteel CRX-A-76 for a door that is not a ligature-risk opening?
For a standard commercial opening the Falcon K501 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical lock in the K Series with an entrance push-turnbutton function and a 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range. The TownSteel CRX-A-76 is also Grade 1 heavy duty and cylindrical, but it is a non-keyed privacy lock built with 5-point ligature resistant stainless steel arch trim and tamper-resistant through-bolt screws, intended for high-risk areas in facilities housing patients at risk, and it is prepped for 1-3/4 inch doors. If the opening has no self-harm risk and you need key control, the K501 covers it; the CRX-A-76 is the choice when the trim itself has to be ligature resistant.
6) I need a privacy lock but the door is 1-3/8 inch thick - what should I look at instead of the CRX-A-76?
The TownSteel CRX-A-76 is prepped for 1-3/4 inch doors, so a thinner door needs a different lock. The Cal-Royal Barrington BA series covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors and includes the BA00 entrance and BA05 storeroom functions; the Falcon K501 entrance lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Note that both of those are keyed functions rather than the non-keyed privacy operation of the CRX-A-76, so confirm the function on the door schedule before substituting.
7) Is a Cal-Royal Barrington BA series lock an equivalent substitute for the TownSteel CRX-A-76 on a behavioral health door?
No. The Cal-Royal Barrington locks are Grade 2 cylindrical locks - the BA03 classroom is ANSI F84 Grade 2, the BA04 communicating is ANSI F80 Grade 2 and the BA05 storeroom is ANSI F86 Grade 2 - and none of them carry ligature resistant trim. The TownSteel CRX-A-76 is Grade 1 heavy duty with a 5-point ligature resistant stainless steel arch trim and tamper-resistant mounting screws, which is the reason it is specified for high-risk patient areas. On a behavioral health opening the trim geometry is the spec, so the Barrington is not a like-for-like swap.
8) Can the CRX-A-76 be installed on a hollow metal door, or is it wood only?
Both. The CRX-A mounts on wood and on metal doors, and it uses through-bolt mounting with tamper-resistant screws so the trim can't be pulled off from the room side. It's a cylindrical lock, so it goes into a standard bored prep rather than a mortise pocket.
9) Is the TownSteel CRX-A-76 Grade 1?
Yes, the CRX-A is ANSI Grade 1 and rated heavy duty, which is the top commercial cycle and strength tier for a cylindrical lock. That's the grade most healthcare and institutional specs call for on patient-area doors.
10) What makes the CRX-A trim ligature resistant compared to a standard lever?
Instead of a lever or knob that a cord can be looped over, the CRX-A uses a 5-point ligature resistant stainless steel arch trim, and TownSteel states it meets ligature resistant requirements. Pair that with the tamper-resistant through-bolt screws and there is no protruding handle and no accessible fastener on the patient side.
11) I'm standardizing a facility on Grade 1 cylindrical locks. What else works alongside the CRX-A-76 on non-patient doors?
For corridor and office doors where ligature resistance isn't required, the Falcon K501 is a Grade 1 heavy duty entrance cylindrical lock with a push-turnbutton and a fire rating, covering 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch doors. If you need remote electric control on a door, the BEST 9KW Series is a heavy duty electromechanical cylindrical lock. Keep the CRX-A-76 on the high-risk patient openings.
12) What should I use instead of the CRX-A-76 if the opening needs a keyed classroom or storeroom function?
The TownSteel CRX-A-76 is a non-keyed privacy lock, so a keyed opening needs a different function. Within the comparable cylindrical locks, the Cal-Royal BA03 is a classroom function, the BA05 is a storeroom function with a deadlocking latch, the BA00 is an entrance with turn/push button locking, and the Falcon K501 is a Grade 1 entrance with a push-turnbutton. TownSteel also builds keyed functions in the CRX-A series with the same ligature resistant arch trim, so if the ligature requirement still applies, stay in the series and change the function suffix rather than switching brands.
13) Does the CRX-A-76 privacy lock take a key cylinder?
The 76 privacy function is non-keyed, so there is no key cylinder on the outside. Cylinder selection on the order form is Standard. Other functions in the CRX-A family do offer cylinder and keying options if you need a keyed opening.
