Accentra D242 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Accentra D242 deadbolt be locked or unlocked from the outside?
No. The D242 is a non-keyed deadbolt, blank plate outside and thumbturn inside, so it throws and retracts only from the interior. That makes it the right choice for a storeroom, mechanical room, restroom or an office door where you want the occupant to secure the door behind them and no exterior operation at all. If you need key access from the corridor side, this is the wrong function.
2) Will the Accentra D242 fit a 1-3/8 inch door, or is it 1-3/4 only?
Both. The D242 covers a door thickness range of 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, so it works on standard commercial 1-3/4 inch openings and on the thinner 1-3/8 inch interior doors common in older buildings. Backset is 2-3/4 inches, which is the deeper of the two standard bored backsets, so check the existing cross-bore before you order for a retrofit.
3) Will the Accentra D242 bolt reach my existing strike, and what strike size does it use?
The deadbolt throws 1 inch of solid steel, and the standard strike supplied for it is 2-3/4 by 1-1/8 inches (70mm x 29mm), the common ANSI-style bored deadbolt strike. If your frame is already prepped for that strike footprint at a 2-3/4 inch backset, the bolt lines up. A full 1 inch throw also means the frame pocket has to be deep enough, so on a retrofit confirm the existing hole is drilled through rather than just dimpled.
4) What is the difference between the Accentra D242 and a keyed single cylinder deadbolt?
Function, not construction. The D242 gives you a blank plate outside and a thumbturn inside, so nobody can key the door from the outside at all. A single cylinder deadbolt puts a keyed cylinder outside and a turn inside, so authorized staff can get in from the corridor. If you need that, the Arrow DBX61 and the Deltana CL200LA are both Grade 2 cylinder x thumbturn deadbolts. Choose the D242 only when exterior operation should be impossible.
5) What is the closest equivalent to the Accentra D242 blank plate deadbolt from another brand?
The Arrow E60 is the nearest match. It is a Grade 2 exit deadlock with a blank plate x thumbturn function and a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range, which is the same function and the same door thickness range the D242 carries. Both give you a thumbturn inside and a plain plate outside with no keyway, so the opening locks and unlocks only from the secure side. If you are standardizing an egress-side deadbolt across a building and want a second sourceable part number on the spec, the E60 lines up on function, grade, and door thickness.
6) I need a deadbolt that can be unlocked with a key from outside, not a blank plate. What should I order instead?
The D242 is a non-keyed deadbolt with a blank plate on the exterior, so there is no way to operate it from outside the door. For a keyed exterior at the same grade, the Arrow DBX61 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with a cylinder x thumbturn function, and the Hager 3215 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with a 1 inch throw and a Schlage C keyway on a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door. Falcon's D211 is a Grade 2 cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt in classroom function. Any of the three replaces the blank plate with a working cylinder while keeping the thumbturn inside.
7) Is there a Grade 1 deadbolt I can use where the spec calls for heavier duty than the D242?
The D242 is certified ANSI/BHMA Grade 2. When a drawing calls for Grade 1, the Corbin Russwin DL3211 is a Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock in cylinder x blank function for a 1-3/4 inch door, and the DL3011 is a Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock covering 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. Design Hardware's D1 Series is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty double cylinder deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch doors, and Falcon's D111 is a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom deadbolt with an adjustable backset. Note the door thickness on the Corbin Russwin and Design Hardware options starts at 1-3/4 inch, so they will not cover a 1-3/8 inch door the way the D242 does.
8) What looks like a substitute for the D242 but will not work on the same opening?
Two traps. The Arrow 460 shows up in deadbolt searches but is a mortise lock strike for latchbolt x deadbolt functions with a straight lip - it is the strike hardware in the frame, not a lock body. The BEST 8T is a T Series tubular deadbolt tube component, a piece of a deadbolt rather than a complete one. Also watch the Callan 205S, a one-sided half-bore deadbolt: the half-bore prep is not the same hole pattern as the D242, which is a cylindrical deadbolt through a full cross bore.
9) Which deadbolts take a small format interchangeable core so they can go on our existing keying system?
The D242 is non-keyed with a blank plate outside, so there is no core to fit. If the opening needs to join an SFIC system, the Arrow E61 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadlock supplied with SFIC prep less core, covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors - the same door thickness range as the D242. The Deltana CL200LAIC is a Grade 2 single deadbolt built for an interchangeable core with a 2-3/4 inch backset, matching the D242 backset. Delaney's LM Series is a Grade 1 single cylinder less core deadbolt if the spec calls for Grade 1.
10) Our door is thicker than 1-3/4 inch. What deadbolt covers that?
The D242 covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. For anything thicker, the Corbin Russwin DL3011 is a Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock rated for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Deltana 7312KA2 is a Grade 3 double cylinder deadbolt covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Dexter DB1000 Series reaches 1-7/8 inch in both single cylinder and double cylinder versions and is Grade 1. All of these are keyed rather than blank plate, so plan the keying if you move up in thickness.
11) Is there a deadbolt with a fire rating for a rated opening where I was going to use the D242?
When the opening is a rated assembly, the Hager 3215 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with a 1 inch throw and a fire rating, on a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door - the same 1 inch throw and door thickness range the D242 carries. Hager's 3115 Grade 2 cylinder x thumbturn and the 3214 Grade 2 double cylinder are also fire rated across the same door thickness range, and the 3118 is a Grade 1 classroom deadbolt with a 6-pin cylinder and a fire rating. The Cal-Royal CRB800 is a Grade 1 heavy duty single cylinder deadbolt with a UL 3-hour fire rated latch.
12) Do I have to order the Accentra D242 left hand or right hand?
No handing to specify. The D242 is field reversible, so one part number covers left and right hand openings and you set it at install. That is worth knowing if you are stocking spares for a building: one SKU per finish covers every door.
13) Is the Accentra D242 strong enough for a commercial building, or is it a residential deadbolt?
It is built for commercial duty, ANSI/BHMA Grade 2, with a solid steel bolt carrying a hardened free spinning steel pin insert to resist sawing. Grade 2 is the medium duty commercial tier. For a higher spec, the Corbin Russwin DL3011 is a Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock, and the Design Hardware D1 Series is a Grade 1 double cylinder unit rated extra heavy duty.
14) Is the Accentra D242 a mortise deadbolt or a bored one?
Bored, not mortise. The D242 is a cylindrical deadbolt, so it installs through a cross-bore in the door face plus an edge bore, no lock case pocket to rout. That is the faster prep and it is what most existing commercial doors are already drilled for. If your doors are prepped for a mortise case instead, look at a mortise deadlock like the Dormakaba D900 small case mortise deadbolt rather than trying to adapt this one.
15) I need to see whether the room is occupied. Does the Accentra D242 have an occupancy indicator?
Not the D242. Within the Accentra D Series the visual In Use / Vacant occupancy indicator is a separate function, supplied as standard on both sides of the door on the D291 and D292. If you are doing single occupancy restrooms or lactation rooms and need staff to read the door status from the corridor, order one of those instead of the D242.
16) Can I add a deadbolt like the Accentra D242 above an existing lever lock on the same door?
Yes, that is the normal use for it. The D242 is a standalone bored deadbolt with its own 2-3/4 inch backset cross-bore, so it mounts above the existing latchset and adds a 1 inch solid steel throw without touching the lockset below. Bore spacing off the manufacturer template, and keep in mind the deadbolt is thumbturn only from inside, so the lever set below still governs how anyone enters from the corridor.
17) The D242 is a cylindrical deadbolt. What is the mortise alternative for a door already prepped for a mortise case?
The D242 is a cylindrical lock type, bored through the door face, so it will not drop into a mortise pocket. For a mortise prep, the Dormakaba D900 Small Case Mortise Dead Bolts run a cylinder x thumbturn function with SC keyways, and the Emtek 2050 and 2051 are European mortise deadbolts with an integrated roller latch in square and round trim. The Codelocks CL2210 is an electronic mortise deadbolt if the opening is moving to code access. These take a mortise pocket rather than the bored cross-bore and edge bore the D242 uses.
18) What is a lighter duty deadbolt if Grade 2 is more than the opening needs?
The D242 is certified Grade 2 for commercial use. Where a lighter rating is acceptable, the Cal-Royal ED500 is a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with an adjustable backset over a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door, and the Cal-Royal LSD is a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with an ADA ergonomic thumbturn over the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch range. Callan's 200S is a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with square trim. All three are keyed cylinder x thumbturn rather than the blank plate the D242 carries, so confirm you actually want a keyway outside before swapping.
19) We need key control on both sides of the door. What replaces the blank plate D242?
The D242 puts a blank plate outside and a thumbturn inside, so neither side takes a key. For a cylinder on both faces, the Hager 3214 is a Grade 2 double cylinder deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway over a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door, matching the D242 door thickness range. The Dexter DB2000 is a Grade 2 double cylinder deadbolt over the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch range, and Delaney's LU Series is a Grade 2 double cylinder deadbolt in stainless steel US32D. Check your egress code before putting a keyed cylinder on the inside face of an occupied space.
20) Which other Grade 2 deadbolt uses the same 2-3/4 inch backset as the D242?
The D242 has a fixed 2-3/4 inch backset. The Deltana CL200LA is a Grade 2 single deadbolt built to a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the interchangeable core version, the CL200LAIC, uses the same 2-3/4 inch backset. If the bore in the door is already at 2-3/4 inch these drop into the same edge dimension. Where the bore location varies across a building, the Cal-Royal ED500 and the Falcon D111 both use an adjustable backset, and the Brinks Raleigh E2401 and Mendocino E2402 use a 4 way adjustable backset, so one part number covers more than one prep.
21) Can I get the same secure-side-only locking without cutting the door, and what about a keypad version?
The D242 is a cylindrical deadbolt that requires a bored prep through the door. Where you do not want to bore, the Codelocks CL200 is a light duty surface deadbolt with key override and the CL2200 is a medium duty electronic surface deadbolt in a brushed steel finish - both mount on the face of the door rather than through it. If the opening is going to credentials instead, the Delaney KP400 is a Grade 2 electronic deadbolt with a programmable remote, and the Dormakaba Saffire LX-D is an RFID electronic deadbolt with BLE and electronic lock override.
22) We want one lock that handles both the latch and the deadbolt instead of a separate D242. What is available?
The D242 is a deadbolt only - it throws a 1 inch solid steel bolt and does nothing about the latch, so the opening still needs a separate knob or lever set. If you would rather buy one assembly, the Falcon H2101 is a Grade 2 entrance interconnected lock with a single cylinder deadbolt built in, so the deadbolt and the latch operate together from one trim. The Emtek 2050 and 2051 mortise deadbolts also carry an integrated roller latch. Interconnected trim covers more of the opening from a single part number, which is worth weighing when you are ordering across a lot of doors.
23) The opening needs to be electrically released or tied to access control. What replaces a manual D242?
The D242 is a mechanical deadbolt with a thumbturn - the only way to retract the bolt is by hand at the door. To put the bolt under access control, the DynaLock 1300 Series is a heavy duty mortise electric deadbolt, and the Dormakaba Nova-D is an RFID multihousing smart electronic deadbolt. For a higher security opening, the Detex DX Series is a hinge side locking deadbolt with multi-point security. These change the door prep and add a power and control run that the D242 does not require.
24) What finishes does the Accentra D242 deadbolt come in?
Eight finishes, and they cover most commercial standardization work: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613E dark oxidized satin bronze equivalent, 619 satin nickel, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, and BSP black suede powder coat. If your building is standardized on 626 satin chrome, which most commercial interiors are, that is the one to match the existing levers and closers to.
25) Is there a deadbolt with a decorative or designer trim instead of the plain commercial plate on the D242?
The D242 comes in commercial architectural finishes such as 605 bright brass, 613E dark oxidized satin bronze, 626 satin chrome, and BSP black suede powder coat, with a plain blank plate outside. For a residential or hospitality look, the Emtek #11 Tuscany is a lost wax cast bronze deadbolt, the Emtek 8323 Modern Disc is a brass double cylinder deadbolt, and Baldwin's Estates 8011 is a contemporary 1-5/8 inch double cylinder deadbolt in entrance function. Bravura's 310RC Elite and 310SC Elite are Grade 2 contemporary round and square deadbolts if you want designer trim while holding the Grade 2 rating.
26) Which Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolts should I look at if I want a keyed version from a range of brands?
Staying at the D242's Grade 2 rating but adding an exterior cylinder, the Bravura 310B Elite is a Grade 2 traditional round deadbolt in cylinder x thumbturn, and the Bravura Rectangle series is a Grade 2 rectangle single cylinder deadbolt. The Cal-Royal CB160 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with a tamper-resistant cylinder guard. Callan's 200S-G2 is a Grade 2 single cylinder round trim deadbolt, and the Deltana CL200LM is a Grade 1 single cylinder deadbolt if you want to step the rating up while keeping the same cylinder x thumbturn arrangement.
