Yale Residential YR70AT-10BP – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Yale Edge Athens keyed entry knob fit a 1-3/8 inch interior door, or is it only for 1-3/4 inch doors?
Both. The Athens keyed entry knobset (YR70AT) covers a door thickness range of 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, so it works on older 1-3/8 inch interior doors and standard 1-3/4 inch doors alike. The door needs a 2-1/8 inch cross bore, which is the standard bored-lock prep, so it drops into most existing knob holes.
2) Can I key the Athens knob to my existing Kwikset or Schlage keys?
The Athens keyed entry knob is ordered with either a KW-1 or an SC-1 five pin cylinder. KW-1 is the Kwikset keyway and SC-1 is the Schlage keyway, so pick the one that matches the keys already in your building. Keying is a required choice at order time: keyed different for separate keys per door, or keyed alike so one key runs a group of doors. There is also an optional key code field if you need the locks cut to a specific existing code.
3) Is a Grade 3 knob lock strong enough for an apartment entry door?
Grade 3 is the residential duty level, and the Athens knobset is built to it. That is fine for unit interior doors, bedrooms, and light traffic entries in townhomes, condos and single family rentals. For a commercial corridor, a school, or a high traffic building entrance you want a heavier lock: BEST's 8K Series entrance knob is Grade 1 heavy duty, and Dexter's C2000 entry/office knob is Grade 2.
4) I need a knob lock for a door thicker than 1-3/4 inch - the Athens will not cover it, what will?
The Yale Edge Athens YR70AT covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. For thicker slabs, the Corbin Russwin CK4851 Grade 1 entrance/office cylindrical knob covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Deltana 3381 Egg Knob entry and Deltana 6171 Round Knob entry both cover 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. If the door is thicker still, the Falcon X101 Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical knobset with interchangeable core goes to 2-1/4 inch, though it is passage function and carries no cylinder for keying.
5) What is the closest Grade 3 keyed entry knob to the Yale Edge YR70AT Athens if I want to stay with a Kwikset keyway?
The Yale Edge YR70AT Athens is a Grade 3 keyed entry knobset with a single cylinder, fitting doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and is offered with a KW-1 5-pin cylinder. Two Grade 3 keyed knobs match that closely: the Cal-Royal BER00, an entrance/office function knob lock supplied with a Kwikset keyway for the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door range, and the Kwikset 400P-CP Polo keyed entry knob, also Grade 3 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The BER00 is entrance/office function rather than the Athens entrance function, so confirm which locking behavior the opening needs.
6) The Athens knob is Grade 3 - what keyed knob should I use on a high traffic commercial opening instead?
The Yale Edge Athens YR70AT is built to Grade 3 and is catalogued for residential use, so for a commercial corridor or a high cycle opening step up to a heavy duty knob. The BEST 8K Series entrance function single cylinder knob lock is Grade 1 heavy duty with the same entrance function. The Sargent 8XG04 is a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom/closet knob with a single cylinder and a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Corbin Russwin CK4851 is a Grade 1 entrance/office cylindrical knob with a conventional cylinder covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Storeroom function keeps the outside knob always locked, which is different behavior from the Athens entrance function.
7) Do I need to worry about handing when ordering the Athens knobset?
No. The Yale Edge hardware is non-handed, so the same set works on a left hand or right hand door. That means a property manager can stock one part number for the whole building instead of splitting inventory by swing.
8) What comes in the box with the Yale Edge Athens keyed entry knob, and do I need anything else?
The carton holds two knobs, two roses, the interior and exterior chassis, the latch, a strike plate, four screws and two keys. That is a complete door, no separate latch or strike to buy. Yale Edge installs with one tool, so a screwdriver finishes the job on a door already bored 2-1/8 inches.
9) Can the Athens entry knob be re-keyed after installation?
Yes. The cylinder is removable, so it can be pulled and re-keyed without special tools. Handy when a tenant turns over and you want to rotate keys rather than replace the whole lockset.
10) What finishes does the Yale Edge Athens knob come in for matching other doors in a building?
Four finishes: 605 polished brass, 619 satin nickel, 630 stainless steel, and 10BP oil rubbed bronze permanent. Each is offered with either the KW-1 or SC-1 cylinder, so you can hold the finish constant across a building and still key to whichever system you already run.
11) Should I use a keyed entry knob or a privacy knob for a bedroom or bathroom?
Privacy is the right function for bedrooms and baths: it locks from inside with a turn button and releases with an emergency tool, no keys to hand out. The Athens YR70AT is a keyed entry lock with a single cylinder outside, which suits doors you want locked with a key from the outside. If you need privacy in the same price class, Cal-Royal's BER20 and Pamex's FTF Baron are both Grade 3 privacy knob locks fitting 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.
12) Are the Emtek and Baldwin knobs a substitute for the Yale Edge Athens keyed entry knob?
No. The Athens YR70AT is a keyed entry knobset with a single cylinder and two keys. The Emtek Classic Brass Crystal Georgetown and Providence knobsets and the Emtek Arts and Crafts Hammered Egg knobset are dummy pairs with no latch or lock at all, and the Emtek Porcelain knobs ship as two knobs with a threaded rod. On the Baldwin side, the Estate 5000 Baltimore is offered as a passage lock and as a privacy lock, and the Estate 5077 Bethpage is privacy function. None of those carry a cylinder, so they cannot replace a keyed opening.
13) I need the same Athens look on bedroom and closet doors that should not be keyed - what do I pair with it?
The YR70AT Athens is a keyed entrance knob with a single cylinder, so it is the wrong function for a bathroom push-button door or a closet. For privacy, the Cal-Royal BER20 is a Grade 3 privacy knob lock for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors and the Pamex FTF Baron privacy knob is Grade 3 over the same door range. For non-locking passage and closet doors, the Pamex FTF Baron passage knob is Grade 3 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. All three use the same door thickness range as the Athens, but rose styling will not match across brands.
14) Which other Grade 3 entrance knobsets could I spec across an apartment building alongside the Yale Edge Athens?
The Athens YR70AT is a Grade 3 entrance function knobset in the Yale Edge Series. Other Grade 3 entrance knobsets to consider for the same kind of multi-family program are the Callan Canova and Callan Santo, the Delaney Belton, Galway and Olivia, and the Master Lock BC Series biscuit knob keyed entry. Rose shape and finish offering differ by line, so pick one series and hold it across the building if you want the doors to read as a set.
15) What is a step up from the Athens knob if I want a keyed entry knob one grade higher but not full commercial?
The Yale Edge Athens YR70AT is Grade 3 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. A middle step is the Dexter C2000 Series entry/office ball knob lock, which is Grade 2, keyed and non-clutching, over the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door range. The Callan Edgewood and Callan Roland are also Grade 2 entrance knobsets. Note the Dexter and Corbin Russwin entrance/office functions differ from a straight entrance function in how the outside knob is locked off, so verify the function against the door schedule.
16) Does the Yale Edge Athens carry a fire rating, and which knob locks in the same family do?
For a rated opening, look to the Falcon W Series 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 cylindrical knobset with an interchangeable core that is also fire rated. Both are passage/closet latch function rather than keyed entry, so on a rated door that also needs a key, take the function requirement to a Grade 1 keyed knob such as the BEST 8K Series entrance lock.
17) Is there a keyless alternative to the Athens keyed entry knob if I do not want to issue keys?
The Yale Edge Athens YR70AT is keyed with a single cylinder and ships with two keys. If you would rather run a code than cut keys, the Lockey 3830 is a mechanical keyless combination knob lock with auto-locking passage function, fitting doors 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch. It is mechanical with no cylinder, so it will not key into an existing KW-1 or SC-1 master system the way the Athens can.
18) For a classroom door, is the Athens knob acceptable or do I need a different lock?
The Yale Edge Athens YR70AT is an entrance function knob built to Grade 3 for residential use, which is not a classroom function. The Dexter C2000 Series classroom cylindrical ball knob lock is Grade 2, keyed and non-clutching, for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Sargent 28C-KNOB is classroom function knob and rose trim for an exit device on 1-3/4 inch doors. Classroom function locks and unlocks the outside knob by key only, with no inside button.
19) Is the Athens knob solid metal or plastic-bodied?
Metal construction throughout, with a round rose trim. It is part of the Yale Edge Athens collection, a cylindrical bored lockset aimed at the residential market.
20) What matching dummy knob can I use on an inactive leaf next to an Athens keyed entry knob?
The Athens YR70AT is a keyed entry knobset with a round rose and cannot be used as a dummy. For an inactive leaf, the Cal-Royal BA40 Barrington dummy knob covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same range as the Athens; the Schlage A170 single dummy trim is a Grade 2 heavy duty non-keyed knob for 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch doors; and the BEST 6K Series single dummy trim is Grade 2 medium duty. Bravura also offers the Biloxi round trim dummy knobset in Grade 2 if you want a round rose profile.
