Accentra YAL-AU-5308LN-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What backset does the Accentra 5308LN come with, and can I get it for a 2-3/8 inch prep?
Standard backset is 2-3/4 inches, which matches most commercial door preps. Extension links are available to order for 2-3/8, 3-3/4 or 5 inch backsets, so an existing 2-3/8 inch bored door can be handled, but that has to be specified on the order.
2) How does a classroom function lever actually work on the door?
Classroom function means the outside lever is locked and unlocked by key only, from the outside. The inside lever always retracts the latch for free egress, and there is no inside button or turn, so the door cannot be accidentally left locked from within. The 5308LN is a single cylinder keyed lockset with a brass 6-pin keyed-random cylinder and two keys furnished.
3) Will the 5308LN latch into the strike already in my frame?
The latchbolt is 1/2 inch stainless steel throw with a guardbolt that deadlocks it when the door closes. It ships with a 1-1/4 inch curved lip strike sized for a 1-3/4 inch door. If your existing frame strike has a different lip length to suit a deeper reveal, other lip lengths are available to order.
4) What is a comparable Grade 2 classroom lever lock to the Accentra 5308LN Augusta?
The Cal-Royal AG03 is a Grade 2 classroom lever in the AG Series with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different and a 2-3/4 inch backset, matching the Accentra 5308LN Augusta's Grade 2 classroom function and 2-3/4 inch standard backset. The 5308LN ships with a brass 6-pin keyed-random cylinder and two keys, so if a school is already keyed to Schlage C the AG03 drops into that system directly, while the 5308LN would need to be keyed to the existing system.
5) What is the Grade 1 alternative to the Accentra 5308LN classroom lever for a high-traffic school corridor?
The Dexter C1000 Series classroom lock is a Grade 1 cylindrical classroom lever with a clutching, keyed design and a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness range. The Accentra 5308LN Augusta is Grade 2 per ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Series 4000 and adjusts for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors as furnished. For a corridor specified Grade 1, the C1000 meets that call; the 5308LN carries UL/cUL fire rating up to 3 hours and windstorm certification, which matters on rated and storm-shelter openings.
6) If the classroom needs to be locked from inside the room, what should I use instead of the Accentra 5308LN?
The Accentra 5308LN Augusta is a classroom function lock, which is keyed from the outside only. For lockdown from inside the room, the Dexter C1000 Series classroom security lever is a Grade 1 clutching keyed lock in the classroom security function, which adds an inside keyed control. Order the 5308LN when the outside-key-only classroom function is what the door calls for.
7) What should I use instead of the Accentra 5308LN on an institutional door that needs key control from both sides?
The Accentra 5308LN Augusta is a single-cylinder classroom lock. For both-side key control, the Dexter C1000 Series asylum lock is a Grade 1 cylindrical lock in the asylum/institution/utility function for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a Grade 2 heavy duty asylum lock with a conventional Schlage C keyway cylinder, though it uses a ball knob rather than a lever. If ADA lever operation is required, the Dexter asylum lever is the closer swap.
8) For a thinner 1-3/8 inch door, what classroom-capable lever works where the Accentra 5308LN as furnished does not?
The Accentra 5308LN Augusta adjusts from 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch as furnished. For a 1-3/8 inch door, the Cal-Royal AG03 Grade 2 classroom lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway is an option in the AG Series, and the Dexter C1000 classroom lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. Note that the 5308LN is also available for 1-3/8 inch or 2-1/4 inch doors to order if you prefer to standardize on the 5300LN series.
9) Do I need to specify handing when ordering the 5308LN Augusta lever?
No handing required. The 5308LN is non-handed and the front is universal for both flat and beveled door edges, so one part covers left and right hand openings. The strike is reversible as well.
10) What finishes does the Accentra 5308 Augusta lever come in?
Ten finish choices are orderable: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613E dark oxidized satin bronze equivalent, 619 satin nickel, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 693 black painted, plus black and white suede powder coat. PVD is standard on 605 and 606, which holds up better on high-touch classroom and corridor doors.
11) Can the 5308LN take a 7-pin cylinder or lead shielding for an X-ray room?
Neither is available on the 5300LN Augusta. Cylinders are brass 6-pin only, and lead shielding is not offered, so this is not the lock for a radiology door.
12) Is a Grade 2 classroom lever enough for a school, or should I step up to Grade 1?
Grade 2 to ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Series 4000 covers normal commercial and institutional traffic, and the 5308LN uses a heavy-gauge steel, zinc-plated dichromated mechanism. For the heaviest-abuse openings some specs call Grade 1: the Dexter C1000 Series classroom lever is a Grade 1 clutching alternative, and Dexter also lists a Classroom Security version if you need key control of the inside lever too.
13) Can I use the Accentra 5308LN classroom lever on a restroom or bedroom door?
No. The Accentra 5308LN Augusta is a keyed classroom function lock with a single cylinder. Privacy openings call for a thumbturn instead: the Hager 2540 is a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock with a Withnell lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Arrow MK02-TA is a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock with a Tudor knob, non-keyed and fire rated. Keep the 5308LN for classroom and office-style doors that need outside key control.
14) What is the difference between the Accentra 5308LN classroom lock and a storeroom lever like the Hager 2580 or Cal-Royal AG05?
The Accentra 5308LN Augusta is a classroom function lever: the outside lever is unlocked or locked by key and stays in that state. The Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom cylindrical lock with a Withnell lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. Storeroom function keeps the outside lever always locked and requires a key every time, so it suits closets and supply rooms rather than a classroom door that gets left unlocked during the day.
15) For doors in the same building that do not need to lock, what non-keyed lever pairs with the Accentra 5308LN?
The Accentra 5308LN Augusta is keyed with a single cylinder for classroom function. For latching-only openings, the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 non-handed cylindrical passage lever, medium duty, and the Arrow GL01 is a Grade 2 passage function cylindrical lock with a Sierra lever, non-keyed, for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, which matches the 5308LN's adjustable 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch range. Both are Grade 2 like the 5308LN, so the corridor stays at one grade level.
16) Is a Grade 3 entrance lever like the Cal-Royal AUS00 or Master Lock RL01 a substitute for the Accentra 5308LN?
No. The Cal-Royal AUS00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office lever for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors and the Master Lock RL01 is a Grade 3 keyed entry lever in the RL Series. The Accentra 5308LN Augusta is ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 in the classroom function with a 1/2 inch stainless steel latchbolt and guardbolt, and is adjustable for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. A Grade 3 entrance lever changes both the certification level and the keying behavior, so it will not satisfy a classroom-function specification.
17) I need an access-controlled classroom door instead of a keyed lever. What replaces the Accentra 5308LN?
The Accentra 5308LN Augusta is a mechanical keyed classroom lever. For electrified control, the Corbin Russwin CL33903 is a Grade 1 fail safe electrified cylindrical lever lock operating on 12VAC/DC for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, the same door thickness range the 5308LN adjusts through. For keyless mechanical entry without wiring, the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock.
18) Is the Corbin Russwin CL3110 an equivalent to the Accentra 5308LN?
They are different functions. The Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant cylindrical lever in the CL3100 Series with passage/closet function, fire rated, for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. The Accentra 5308LN Augusta is a Grade 2 keyed classroom lever, also for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors and UL/cUL fire rated up to 3 hours. The CL3110 has no cylinder and never locks, so it is a companion for non-locking openings rather than a replacement for a classroom lock.
19) Does the 5308LN come keyed alike, and can I key it into my building system?
As standard it ships keyed random with a brass 6-pin cylinder and two keys, meaning each lock has its own unrelated key. If you are standardizing a facility, that random keying has to be addressed at order time rather than assumed.
20) What lever should I order for a door that needs matching trim but no latch alongside Accentra 5308LN classroom locks?
The Accentra 5308LN Augusta is a latching classroom lockset with a 1/2 inch stainless steel latchbolt. For an inactive leaf or closet face that only needs a pull, the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is a Grade 2 non-keyed single dummy trim cylindrical lever, medium duty, which keeps the same Grade 2 level. The BEST 9K Series 1DT is the Grade 1 heavy duty single dummy trim if the rest of the opening is specified Grade 1.
