Accentra D252 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Accentra D252 deadbolt's cylinder x blank plate function actually do on the door?
The D252 is keyed on one side only and has a blank plate on the other, so there is no thumbturn and no way to retract the bolt from the inside without a key. That makes it an option where you do not want the bolt thrown or released from the interior side, such as a storeroom or a door locked from outside only. If you need the occupant to throw and release the bolt by hand, look at a cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt like the Falcon D211 or the Hager 3215 instead.
2) Does the Accentra D252 use a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset?
2-3/4 inches, fixed. It is not an adjustable-backset deadbolt, so the existing cross bore has to be centered 2-3/4 inches from the door edge. Doors bored at 2-3/8 will need an adjustable unit instead, such as the Cal-Royal ED500 or a Brinks Raleigh with the 4-way adjustable backset.
3) Will the Accentra D252 bolt reach my existing strike, and what strike prep does it need?
The bolt throws a full 1 inch of solid steel, and the standard strike is 2-3/4 x 1-1/8 inches (70mm x 29mm). If the frame already carries a strike of that cutout with a pocket deep enough for a 1 inch bolt, it drops in; a shallow residential strike pocket will need to be deepened.
4) Is a blank plate deadbolt safe for an exit door people use to get out?
Think carefully here. With a blank inside plate the D252 gives no inside release, so it should not go on a required means of egress door that occupants need to exit through. For an exit door you want a non-keyed or thumbturn release, for example the Arrow E60 exit deadlock with a blank plate x thumbturn function on 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. Keep the D252 for storerooms, closets, and secondary doors where egress is not being counted on.
5) What is the closest equivalent to the Accentra D252 if the opening needs a thumbturn on the inside instead of a blank plate?
The D252 is a cylinder x blank plate deadbolt, so the interior side has no turn piece at all. If the inside needs to be operated without a key, the Arrow DBX61 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt in a cylinder x thumbturn function, and the Dexter DB2000 single cylinder deadbolt is Grade 2 cylinder x thumbturn with a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range that matches the D252. Either keeps the Grade 2 rating while giving occupants keyless egress from the secure side.
6) We need a Grade 1 deadbolt instead of the Grade 2 Accentra D252 - what keeps the same cylinder x blank arrangement?
The Accentra D252 is ANSI/BHMA Grade 2. For a Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock in the same cylinder x blank configuration, the Corbin Russwin DL3211 and DL3011 are Grade 1 cylindrical deadlocks with cylinder x blank trim; the DL3211 is listed for 1-3/4 inch doors and the DL3011 for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. Note the DL3011's wider thickness range if the door is thicker than the D252's 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch window.
7) Is the Arrow E60 a substitute for the Accentra D252?
They are opposites on the same opening. The Accentra D252 is a keyed single cylinder deadbolt with a blank plate inside, so it locks and unlocks by key from the outside only. The Arrow E60 is a Grade 2 non-keyed exit deadlock with a blank plate on the outside and a thumbturn inside, for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. Use the E60 where you want the door secured from within and no keyed access; use the D252 where key control from the exterior is the point.
8) The doors are already keyed on a small format interchangeable core system - what deadbolt works instead of the Accentra D252?
The Arrow E61 26D IC is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadlock prepped for a small format interchangeable core and supplied less core, with a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range that matches the Accentra D252. That lets the locksmith drop in the facility's existing SFIC rather than key a conventional cylinder.
9) What should I use instead of the Accentra D252 if the door is a fire rated opening and I need a fire rating stated?
For openings where the deadbolt itself must carry a fire rating, the Hager 3215 single cylinder deadbolt is a Grade 2 commercial lock with a 1 inch throw and a stated fire rating, fitting 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors - the same throw and thickness range as the Accentra D252. The Hager 3118 is the Grade 1 classroom deadbolt in that family if you also need to step the grade up.
10) We want keyed access on both sides - what replaces the Accentra D252?
The D252 is a single cylinder deadbolt, keyed on one side only. For key operation from both faces, the Hager 3214 is a Grade 2 double cylinder deadbolt for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Dexter DB2000 double cylinder is Grade 2 over the same thickness range. For a heavier build, the Design Hardware D1 Series is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty double cylinder deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch doors. Confirm local egress code before specifying double cylinder.
11) Do I have to order the Accentra D252 handed?
No. The D252 is non-handed and field reversible, so one part number covers left and right hand openings. For a property manager stocking spares across a building, that means a single SKU per finish rather than a handed pair.
12) Is the Accentra D252 rated for commercial use?
It carries ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 certification and is built for commercial openings, which suits offices, schools, retail, and multi-tenant residential. For extra heavy duty traffic where a Grade 1 deadbolt is specified on the drawing, step up to something like the Corbin Russwin DL3211 or the Design Hardware D1 Series.
13) Can the Accentra D252 be installed in a hollow metal door as well as wood?
Yes. Accentra publishes separate door preparation templates for the D100 and D200 Series deadbolts in both wood and hollow metal, covering 2-3/4 and 2-3/8 backsets. Use the hollow metal template for steel doors and frames and the wood template for wood doors so the cross bore and edge bore land correctly.
14) What is the difference between a cylindrical deadbolt like the Accentra D252 and a mortise deadlock?
The D252 is a bored, cylindrical deadbolt: it installs through a cross bore in the door face and an edge bore, which is the fastest prep on a door that is not already mortised. A mortise deadlock such as the Dormakaba D900 needs a pocket routed into the door edge. If the door already has a mortise lock body, stay with mortise; if you are adding security above an existing knob or lever bore, the cylindrical D252 is the straightforward add.
15) I need an indicator showing whether a room is occupied. Does the D252 do that?
No, the D252 is a plain cylinder x blank plate deadbolt with no indicator. Within the Accentra D Series, the D291 and D292 functions carry visual occupancy indicators reading In Use or Vacant, supplied on both sides of the door as standard. Specify one of those if restroom or exam room status display is what you are after.
16) Is there an Accentra D252 equivalent that takes a small format interchangeable core?
The D252 as configured is a single cylinder deadbolt. If your building is keyed on SFIC and you want to install the core yourself, the Arrow Grade 2 single cylinder deadlock ships with SFIC prep less core and covers 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same thickness range as the D252. Deltana's CL200LAIC is another interchangeable core Grade 2 option at a 2-3/4 inch backset.
17) Is there a lighter duty deadbolt than the Accentra D252 for apartment interior doors?
The Accentra D252 is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical deadbolt. If the application does not need Grade 2, the Cal-Royal ED500 is a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with an adjustable backset and the Cal-Royal LSD is a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with an ADA ergonomic thumbturn, both for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. Both are cylinder x thumbturn, so the inside will have a turn piece rather than the D252's blank plate.
18) We are moving to credential based access - what electronic deadbolt replaces the Accentra D252?
The Accentra D252 is a mechanical keyed deadbolt. For electronic control on the same door, the Dormakaba Saffire LX-D is an RFID electronic deadbolt with BLE and electronic lock override, the Dormakaba Nova-D is an RFID multihousing smart electronic deadbolt, and the Delaney KP400 is a Grade 2 electronic deadbolt with a programmable remote. Verify the existing bore and door thickness against each unit's prep before swapping.
19) Which Grade 2 deadbolts besides the Accentra D252 cover 1-3/8 inch through 1-3/4 inch doors?
The Accentra D252 covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors at Grade 2. Over the same range, the Dexter DB2000 single and double cylinder deadbolts are Grade 2, and the Hager 3115 and 3215 are Grade 2 cylinder x thumbturn deadbolts. The Accentra keeps a blank interior plate; the others put a thumbturn on the inside face.
20) What finishes does the Accentra D252 deadbolt come in?
Eight: 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. 626 satin chrome is the usual match for existing commercial lever and closer hardware; BSP is the one to pick if the building is standardized on black.
