Weslock 00240VNVNFR23 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Weslock 0240 Somerset entry set fit a door already bored for a standard 2-1/8 inch hole?
Yes. The 0240 mounts in a 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 1 inch edge bore, which is the standard residential prep, so it drops into most doors already bored for a knob or lever set. The latch is adjustable between 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inch backset, so you do not need to know which backset the door was drilled for before you order.
2) Do I have to pick a backset for the Weslock 0240, or does one latch cover both?
One latch covers both. The 0240 ships with an adjustable latch that sets to either a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, with a radius faceplate measuring 1 by 2-1/4 inches. Nothing to specify on the order, and nothing extra to buy if the door turns out to be drilled the other way.
3) I am replacing a Kwikset keyed entry knob on a rental unit. Is the Weslock 0240 a straight swap?
Physically, yes in most cases. The 0240 uses the same 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 1 inch edge bore prep and an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch latch, so it goes into the same holes. Keying is where it stops: the 0240 runs a 5 pin Weslock keyway, so your existing Kwikset keys will not work and you will be handing tenants new keys. If you need to stay on the Kwikset key system across a building, the Cal-Royal BER00 is a Grade 3 entrance knob lock supplied with a Kwikset keyway, and the Kwikset 400P-CP is the Grade 3 keyed entry knob with an adjustable round corner latch and strike.
4) The Weslock 0240 is residential grade - what is the commercial equivalent for an office or apartment common door?
For a commercial opening, step up to the BEST 8K Series entrance function single cylinder knob lock, which is Grade 1 heavy duty, or the Corbin Russwin CK4851 entrance/office cylindrical knob lock with a conventional cylinder, Grade 1, for doors 1-3/8 to 2 inches. The Weslock 0240 Somerset is a residential entrance set that exceeds ANSI Grade 3. All three are single cylinder keyed entrance function, so the door prep intent is the same; the difference is duty level and the door thickness the Corbin Russwin will span.
5) I do not need a key on this door - what is the non-keyed version to order instead of the Weslock 0240?
The Weslock 0240 Somerset is a keyed entrance set with a key outside and a turn button inside. For a hall or closet door that only needs to latch, the Pamex FTF Baron is a Grade 3 passage knob lockset for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Kwikset 200P-CP Polo passage knob comes with a round corner adjustable latch and round corner strike. For a bedroom or bathroom that needs privacy but no key, the Pamex FTF Baron privacy version or the Cal-Royal BER20 Grade 3 privacy knob lock covers the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.
6) I need a keyed entry knob that uses a Kwikset keyway instead of a Weslock keyway - what should I order?
The Cal-Royal BER00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office knob lock supplied with a Kwikset keyway, for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches. The Weslock 0240 Somerset uses a 5 pin cylinder in the Weslock keyway, so it will not key into an existing Kwikset system. If the building is already keyed to Kwikset and you want the new opening on the same key, the BER00 is the one to specify.
7) My door is thicker than 1-3/4 inches - what keyed entry knob should I use instead of the Weslock 0240 Somerset?
The Weslock 0240 Somerset adjusts to doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches. For a thicker door, the Corbin Russwin CK4851 entrance/office cylindrical knob lock is built for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, and the Deltana 3381 Egg Knob entry and Deltana 6171 Round Knob entry both cover 1-3/8 to 2 inches. All three are keyed entry knob sets, so the opening keeps a key outside; measure the leaf at the lock edge before ordering.
8) How does a keyed entry function lock work compared with a passage or privacy set?
Keyed entry, single cylinder, means a key cylinder on the outside and a turn button on the inside. You lock it from inside with the thumb turn and unlock from outside with a key. That is the function for a front, side, or back entry door, or any interior door you want secured. If you only need the door to latch, a passage set has no lock at all; if you need bathroom or bedroom privacy, a privacy set locks from inside but has no key cylinder. The Somerset 0240 is the keyed version.
9) Does the Weslock 0240 come with a strike plate, or do I need to buy one?
The strike is included: a 2-1/4 inch full lip radius strike, matched to the radius faceplate on the latch. The full lip is what you want on a wood jamb where the door closes against a stop, since the lip guides the latch in and protects the jamb edge. Assembly screws and instructions are in the box too, so the only thing you supply is the door.
10) How far does the Weslock Somerset lever stick out from the door, and how big is the rose?
The rose is 2-5/8 inches in diameter with a 2-7/8 inch projection off the door face. Worth checking if the door swings tight against a wall, a return jamb, or a cabinet run, and worth measuring against the trim ring on the set you are pulling off so you are not left with an unfinished ring of old paint or wear on the door.
11) Do I need to specify handing when ordering the Weslock 0240 Somerset set?
No handing to specify. The Premiere Essentials set is non handed, so the same box works on a left or right hand door, inswing or outswing. That matters when you are ordering a dozen for a building and do not want to survey every opening first. The one thing to get right at install is orientation of the lever itself and the turn button facing the secure side.
12) What is the difference between the Weslock 0240 and a Grade 2 entrance lockset like the Callan Edgewood or Dexter C2000?
They are all cylindrical entrance locks in the same 2-1/8 inch bore prep, but the duty step differs. The 0240 is a residential set that exceeds ANSI Grade 3. The Callan Edgewood is a Grade 2 entrance knobset and the Dexter C2000 entry/office is a Grade 2 keyed cylindrical ball knob. Grade 2 buys more cycles and a stronger mechanism, which is what you want on a leasing office or a common entry that gets used all day. For a unit door or an interior room in a house, Grade 3 is the normal spec.
13) Is the Sargent 6G04 storeroom knob lock a substitute for the Weslock 0240 keyed entry?
No. The Sargent 6G04 is a Grade 2 single cylinder storeroom/closet knob lock, and the Sargent 8XG04 is the Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom version with a 2-3/4 inch backset. Storeroom function keeps the outside knob locked at all times and the key retracts the latch, with no turn button to leave the door unlocked. The Weslock 0240 Somerset is entrance function with a turn button inside, so an occupant can unlock the door and leave it free-swinging. Both are keyed, but the way the door behaves day to day is different.
14) What are the other Grade 3 keyed entry knobsets comparable to the Weslock 0240 Somerset?
Several entrance function knobsets sit in the same class. The Callan Canova and Callan Santo are Grade 3 entrance knobsets, the Delaney Belton, Galway and Olivia are Grade 3 entrance knobsets, the Master Lock BC Series biscuit knob is a Grade 3 keyed entry, and the Pamex FTF Baron is a Grade 3 entrance/office knob lockset for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Weslock 0240 Somerset exceeds ANSI Grade 3 and covers the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, so any of these can fill a Grade 3 entrance opening; the choice comes down to knob or lever design and keyway.
15) Which entrance knobset steps up from the Weslock 0240 to a Grade 2 without going full commercial?
The Callan Edgewood and Callan Roland are Grade 2 entrance knobsets, and the Dexter C2000 Series entry/office ball knob lock is a keyed Grade 2 unit for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, the same door range the Weslock 0240 Somerset adjusts to. The Corbin Russwin CK4410 is Grade 2 for the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors but is a passage function, so it is not a keyed alternative.
16) Can I use a dummy knob like the Schlage A170 in place of the Weslock 0240 on a closet door?
Only if the door does not need to latch. The Schlage A170 is a single dummy trim, a non-keyed Grade 2 knob for 1-3/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors, and the BEST 6K Series single dummy trim is a Grade 2 medium duty non-keyed unit; dummy trim is surface mounted pull hardware with no latch and no bore for one. The Weslock 0240 Somerset is a keyed entrance set that fits a door bored with a 2-1/8 inch cross hole and a 1 inch edge hole and carries a live latch. If the closet door is already bored for a cylindrical lock, a passage set is the right swap, not dummy trim.
17) I need a fire rated knob lock for a rated opening - is the Weslock 0240 the right choice?
For a labeled opening, look at the Falcon W101, a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical knob lock with a fire rating and a 2-3/4 inch backset, or the Falcon X101, a Grade 1 heavy duty fire rated cylindrical knobset with an interchangeable core for doors 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches. Both are passage/closet latch function, so they latch without keying. The Weslock 0240 Somerset is a residential keyed entrance set.
18) I want to get rid of keys on this entry door - is there a keyless option instead of the Weslock 0240 Somerset?
The Lockey 3830 is a mechanical keyless combination knob lock with an auto-locking passage function, for doors 1 3/16 to 2 inches. It opens on a code rather than a key, which suits a rental turnover or a shared entrance where handing out keys is the problem. The Weslock 0240 Somerset is keyed on the outside with a 5 pin cylinder in the Weslock keyway and a turn button inside, so it stays on a physical key system.
19) The Weslock 0240 will not work on my classroom door - what keyed knob lock handles that function?
The Dexter C2000 Series classroom cylindrical ball knob lock is a keyed Grade 2 unit in classroom function for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, and the Sargent 28C-KNOB is exit device trim with knob and rose in classroom function for 1-3/4 inch doors. Classroom function locks and unlocks the outside knob by key only, with no inside turn button; the Weslock 0240 Somerset is entrance function with a turn button on the inside, which is what a classroom spec typically rules out.
20) What finishes does the Weslock 0240 Somerset entry lever come in?
Two: Oil Rubbed Bronze and Satin Nickel, both on the Somerset lever. Satin nickel is the safer match if the rest of the building runs brushed or brushed chrome hardware; oil rubbed bronze reads much darker and will not blend with an antique brass or bright brass opening. Body is zinc alloy under the finish.
21) Is the Imperial USA ED-BKL580 knob trim an alternative to the Weslock 0240 keyed entry lock?
No. The Imperial USA ED-BKL580 is knob trim in storeroom function from the ED-500 Series, and the Sargent 78-2875 is an outside knob only with B design. Trim pieces mount to an exit device or replace one side of an existing lock; they are not complete latching sets. The Weslock 0240 Somerset is a full keyed entrance lockset with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch latch, a 2-1/4 inch full lip radius strike, and assembly screws.
22) Are the Arrow MK01 and RK01 knob locks interchangeable with the Weslock 0240 Somerset?
They fit the same doors but not the same function. The Arrow MK01 and Arrow RK01 are Grade 2 non-keyed passage/hall/closet cylindrical knob locks for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, matching the door thickness range of the Weslock 0240 Somerset. Passage sets have no cylinder and no turn button, so the door cannot be secured. Use them where the Weslock 0240 was only ever going to latch a hallway or closet, not on an entry that needs to lock.
