Accentra PB-5421LN-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the communicating function on the Accentra 5421LN lever lock actually do?
The 5421LN is a communicating function lock, meaning both levers are keyed and either side can lock or unlock the opening from its own key. It is the function used on doors between two occupied spaces, such as adjoining hotel or patient rooms, where each side needs control. If you want key control from one side only, a storeroom or entry function is the right call instead.
2) Will the Accentra 5421LN fit a 2-inch thick door?
Yes. The 5400LN cylindrical lever is adjustable from 1-3/4 inches to 2-1/4 inches door thickness, so a 2 inch door is inside range. Note the low end: it starts at 1-3/4, so it will not go onto a 1-3/8 inch older interior door. For that thickness, the Falcon K101 Grade 1 cylindrical lock covers 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches.
3) Is the 5421LN a 2-3/4 inch backset, and can it work on a wider stile door?
Standard backset is 2-3/4 inches, which is the normal commercial bore location. If your door is bored deeper, extension links for 3-3/4 inch or 5 inch backsets are available to order on the 5400LN series. Specify the extension at order time; it is not something you add later.
4) Will the 5421LN latch into the strike already in my frame?
Standard latchbolt throw is 1/2 inch stainless steel, with a 3/4 inch throw available to order if you have a wider gap or a wrapped frame. The furnished strike is a 1-1/4 inch curved lip sized for a 1-3/4 inch door, and other lip lengths are orderable. All strikes are reversible. If your existing strike box is deep enough and the lip length suits your jamb reveal, the 1/2 inch throw will engage it.
5) Can I use the Accentra 5421LN on a fire rated door?
Yes. The 5400LN series lever lock is UL/cUL fire rated up to 3 hours and carries ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Series 4000 Grade 1 certification. It is also listed as windstorm certified, though you should confirm against your local code for that use.
6) How is the 5421LN keyed and cylinder supplied, and can I key it into an existing system?
It ships with a brass 6-pin keyed-random cylinder and two keys as standard. A 7-pin cylinder is available to order, and other cylinder and keying arrangements are covered in the series catalog, so it can be ordered keyed alike or to a master system rather than keyed random. Specify the keyway and keying instruction on the order, since keyed random is what arrives by default.
7) What is the closest Grade 1 cylindrical lever alternative to the Accentra 5421LN Pacific Beach if the opening does not need a communicating function?
The Accentra 5421LN Pacific Beach is a Grade 1 cylindrical lever lock with a communicating function, meaning both sides are keyed for a shared door between two spaces. If the opening only needs free passage, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage lock with non-handed levers, fire rated, and fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. The Corbin Russwin CL3110 is another Grade 1 passage and closet cylindrical lever, fire rated, for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. Both drop the keyed cylinders entirely.
8) Is there a Grade 1 lever lock like the Accentra 5421LN for a classroom or storage opening instead of a communicating door?
The Accentra 5421LN Pacific Beach is built for communicating openings where both faces are keyed. For a classroom door, the Dexter C1000 is a Grade 1 clutching keyed classroom cylindrical lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the C1000 classroom security version adds inside keyed control on the same door thickness range. For an institutional or utility opening, the Dexter C1000 asylum function is Grade 1 and covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
9) My door is thicker than most - does the Accentra 5421LN cover it, or do I need a different lock?
The Accentra 5421LN Pacific Beach adjusts from 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness, which is the widest upper limit among comparable cylindrical levers. The Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock also reaches 2-1/4 inch, covering 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Corbin Russwin CL3110 and CL33903 stop at 2 inch, and Design Hardware X75 is set for 1-3/4 inch doors.
10) Do I need to specify handing when I order the 5421LN Pacific Beach lever?
No. The 5400LN cylindrical lock is non-handed and reversible, and the strike is reversible too, so one part number covers left and right hand openings. That is useful for stocking: a property manager can keep a single lock on the shelf for any door in the building.
11) What finishes does the Accentra 5421LN Pacific Beach lever come in?
Nine finishes 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, plus BSP black suede powder coat and WSP white suede powder coat. PVD is standard on 605 and 606, which matters if the lock is going on an exterior or high-humidity opening where plated brass would tarnish.
12) Does the 5421LN have a deadlocking latch for a lockable opening?
Yes. A guardbolt deadlocks the latchbolt whenever the door is closed, and it is standard on all locking functions in the 5400LN series. That defeats a simple card or shim attack on the latch, which is the reason it belongs on any door where the keyed side is doing real security work.
13) What is the face plate size on the 5400LN latch, and can I get a flat front?
The standard front is 2-1/4 x 1-1/8 inches, beveled. Flat fronts are available to order if you are matching an existing flat-front mortise pocket in the door edge. Lead shielding is also orderable, which is what you specify for radiology and imaging rooms.
14) What is a Grade 1 alternative to the Accentra 5421LN if I need a non-keyed passage lever on the same doors?
For openings in the same run that only need latching, the Corbin Russwin CL3110 Grade 1 vandal resistant passage lever is fire rated and fits 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors, and the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock is fire rated across 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches. Both are cylindrical like the 5421LN, so the door prep is the same family of bore work. The lever design will not match Pacific Beach, so mix them only where appearance is not an issue.
15) Is a Grade 2 lever lock good enough instead of the 5421LN, or do I need Grade 1?
Grade 1 is the top commercial cycle and strength tier, and it is what schools, hospitals, and high traffic entries are normally specified to. The 5421LN is Grade 1 with a heavy-gauge steel, zinc-plated and dichromated mechanism. On lower traffic interior doors, Grade 2 cylindrical levers like the Hager 2510 or the Falcon B101 are the lighter option, but neither substitutes where the drawing calls Grade 1.
16) Do I need an electrified lever instead of the mechanical 5421LN for an access control door?
The 5421LN is a mechanical key-operated communicating lock with no electrical option, so it will not tie into a card reader or fire alarm release. For an electrified cylindrical lever on the same kind of bore, the Corbin Russwin CL33903 is a Grade 1 fail safe lever at 12V AC/DC fitting 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors. Fail safe unlocks on power loss, which is what egress-side release usually requires.
17) What is a lighter duty lever lock to use instead of the Accentra 5421LN on a low traffic interior door?
The Accentra 5421LN Pacific Beach is a Grade 1 commercial cylindrical lever. Where Grade 2 is acceptable, the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical entry lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with the Withnell lever, and the Falcon B511CP6D is a Grade 2 medium duty entry and office cylindrical lever. Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch.
18) Will a Kwikset or Baldwin lever substitute for the Accentra 5421LN on a commercial opening?
They serve a different application. The Accentra 5421LN Pacific Beach is a Grade 1 commercial cylindrical lever with a communicating function. The Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage and 300BRNL Breton privacy levers are Grade 3 and fit doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Baldwin Estate 5103 is offered in passage, privacy, and half dummy versions. Those are residential-style trims without the Grade 1 rating, so they are not a match for an opening specified for the 5421LN.
19) I need trim on a door with no latching function at all - what goes with an Accentra 5421LN order?
The Accentra 5421LN Pacific Beach is a latching communicating lockset, so it is not used as inactive trim. For an inactive leaf or a dummy application, the BEST 9K Series 1DT is a Grade 1 heavy duty non-keyed single dummy trim cylindrical lever, and the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is the Grade 2 medium duty single dummy equivalent.
20) The Accentra 5421LN is mechanical and keyed - what if I want keyless entry on that opening instead?
The Accentra 5421LN Pacific Beach is a mechanical cylindrical lever with a brass 6-pin cylinder. For keyless operation, the Lockey 2835 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock with passage function and ADA compliance for doors 1-3/16 inch to 2 inch, and the Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with adjustable backset for doors 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch. For electrified control, the Corbin Russwin CL33903 is a Grade 1 fail safe electrified cylindrical lever at 12VAC/DC for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch.
21) What Grade 1 lever should I use for a privacy bath or bedroom door if the Accentra 5421LN is the wrong function?
The Accentra 5421LN Pacific Beach is keyed on both sides for communicating service, which is not a privacy arrangement. The Arrow MK02-TA is a Grade 1 fire rated privacy bed and bath cylindrical lock with a Tudor knob for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. If the trim must stay a lever, the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever is a lever-handled privacy option.
