Yale Residential YR 71 KW 605 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Yale Edge Keowee keyed entry lever work on a Kwikset key or a Schlage key so I don't have to carry two keys?
Both. The Keowee keyed entry lever is ordered with either a KW-1 5-pin cylinder or an SC-1 5-pin cylinder, so it keys into an existing Kwikset or Schlage residential key system. Pick the keyway that matches the keys already on the property. The cylinder is removable for re-keying without special tools, so if the wrong one arrives on site it can still be re-pinned to your key.
2) Can I get a whole building of Keowee entry levers keyed alike on one key?
Yes. Keying is a required choice at order time: KD (keyed different) or KA (keyed alike). Choose KA for a set of doors that should all open with one key, and KD where each unit needs its own. There is also an optional key code field, so if you are adding doors to an existing Yale keyed system you can supply the code you already have on file and the locks come cut to it. Keep the cylinder consistent (KW-1 or SC-1) across the order, as locks on two different keyways cannot be keyed alike.
3) Do I have to order the Keowee lever in a left hand or right hand version?
No handing to specify. The Keowee levers are non-handed, so one part number covers left and right hand doors and the lever is reversible on site. For a property manager or contractor stocking spares that means one SKU per finish instead of two, and no wrong-hand returns.
4) Is the Yale Edge Keowee lever rated for a commercial office or school door?
No, and this is the one to get right. The Keowee lever is built to Grade 3 and is a residential product, meant for town homes, condos, garden homes and single family houses. For commercial traffic you want Grade 2 or Grade 1: the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical entry lock, and the Dexter C1000 Entry/Office is Grade 1 with a clutching lever. If you only need light-duty entry on a residential-style opening, Grade 3 is the right call and the Cal-Royal AUS00 is another Grade 3 entrance/office lever.
5) What comes in the box with the Keowee keyed entry lever, and do I need to buy a strike or latch separately?
Everything for the opening is in the carton: two levers, two roses, the interior and exterior chassis, the latch, the strike plate, four screws and two keys. No separate latch or strike purchase. Yale Edge installs with one tool, so a screwdriver finishes the job. If the door also needs a deadbolt, that is a separate order.
6) What is the closest equivalent to the Yale Edge Keowee keyed entry lever from another brand?
The Keowee is a Grade 3 entrance-function keyed lever on a round rose. The closest peer in the same grade and function is the Callan Artino, a Grade 3 entrance leverset, and the Cal-Royal AUS00, a Grade 3 entrance/office lever lock with a solid brass forged body that fits doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch thick. All three put a keyed lever on a standard bored door prep, so a property manager replacing residential entry levers can use any of them on the same opening.
7) What should I use instead of a Grade 3 residential entry lever on a commercial or high-traffic door?
The Yale Edge Keowee is built to Grade 3 and is a residential product. For an opening that sees commercial traffic, step up to the Hager 2525, a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical entry lock with a lever handle that fits doors 1-3/8 to 2 inch, or the Falcon B511CP6D, a Grade 2 medium-duty cylindrical lever with entry/office function. For the heaviest duty, the Dexter C1000 entry/office lever is Grade 1 and covers 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. All three keep the keyed lever format but carry a higher ANSI/BHMA grade, which is what an institutional or MRO spec usually calls out.
8) Is a storeroom lever the same thing as a keyed entry lever?
No. The Yale Edge Keowee is an entrance function, so the inside lever always retracts the latch and the outside lever can be left unlocked. A storeroom function keeps the outside lever locked at all times and requires the key on every entry - the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom lock with the Withnell lever for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors. Choose storeroom for mechanical rooms and supply closets that must never be left open, and entrance where occupants control the lock.
9) I need a keyed lever for a classroom - can I use the Keowee?
A classroom opening calls for a classroom function, where the key locks and unlocks the outside lever from the corridor side. The Cal-Royal AG03 is a classroom lever in the AG Series with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway and a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Dexter C1000 classroom lever is Grade 1 with a clutching mechanism for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. Where lockdown from inside the room is required, the Dexter C1000 classroom security lever is the Grade 1 version with that function. The Keowee is an entrance function residential lever built to Grade 3.
10) The rest of my building is keyed Schlage - does a Yale lever work with that keyway?
The Keowee is offered with an SC-1 five-pin cylinder as well as a KW-1 five-pin cylinder, so ordering the SC-1 version puts it on the Schlage keyway directly, and it can be ordered keyed alike with a key code supplied. Peers already cut to a Schlage keyway include the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway and 2-3/8 inch backset and the Cal-Royal AG03 classroom lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway. For Yale hardware that needs to accept a Schlage cylinder, the Accentra 107S is a Schlage cylinder adapter kit for Yale hardware.
11) Does the Keowee carry a fire rating for a rated corridor door?
For a labeled opening, choose a peer that states a fire rating: the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal-resistant passage lever with a fire rating for doors 1-3/4 to 2 inch, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 fire-rated passage lever for 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Arrow MK02-TA is a fire-rated privacy cylindrical lock with a Tudor knob. The Yale Edge Keowee is a Grade 3 residential entrance lever intended for town homes, condos, garden homes and single family homes.
12) What is the difference between a single cylinder keyed entry lever and a privacy or passage lever?
Single cylinder means one key cylinder, on the outside only; the inside has a thumbturn or button to lock, with no keyhole. That is the entrance function, the right pick for an exterior door, a unit entry door, or any room you want keyed. A privacy lever (bed and bath) locks from inside but has no key, and a passage lever does not lock at all. If you need the non-locking version for a hall or closet, the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton is a Grade 3 passage lever; for bed and bath, the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton is the Grade 3 privacy version.
13) What finishes does the Keowee round rose lever come in, and will it match the rest of my hardware?
Three finishes: 605 polished brass, 619 satin nickel, and 10BP oil rubbed bronze permanent. Each is available with either the KW-1 or SC-1 cylinder. The 10BP is a permanent oil rubbed bronze, meaning it holds its color rather than living-finish bronze that darkens and wears through with use, which is what you want when matching a run of units years apart. The trim is a round rose, so it will line up visually with other round-rose hardware rather than square or rectangular escutcheons.
14) I need to re-key the Keowee lever after a tenant moves out. Can I do that myself?
Yes, without pulling the lock apart. The cylinder is removable for re-keying without special tools, which is the reason this lever suits rental turnovers. A property manager running units on KA keying can re-key a single door back into the building system instead of replacing the whole lockset.
15) Is the Keowee lever a cylindrical bored lock or a mortise lock?
Cylindrical. The Keowee is a bored cylindrical lockset, so it goes into a standard bored door prep, a round cross bore through the face with an edge bore for the latch, and mounts on the surface of the door. It is not a mortise lock and will not drop into a mortise pocket. Replacing another bored residential lever means no new door prep in most cases.
16) What is a good alternative to the Yale Keowee if I want the entry lever and deadbolt on one key as a combo?
The Callan Bennett is a Grade 3 entrance leverset sold as a deadbolt combo, which covers the entry lever and the deadbolt in one order at the same grade. The Keowee is the lever only. If you want to stay with a straight Grade 3 entrance lever in a different style, the Callan Artino is another option.
17) I do not need the door to lock with a key - what is the non-keyed version of this style of lever?
The Keowee is a single cylinder keyed entrance lever. For a hall, closet or pass-through opening that needs no lock, the passage equivalents include the Callan Asheville, a Grade 3 passage leverset in satin nickel, and the Kwikset 200BRNL RDT Breton passage lever, also Grade 3 and rated for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. In Grade 2, the Bravura Atlanta and Bravura Orlando are passage leversets with round trim, matching the round rose look.
18) What do I order for a bedroom or bathroom door instead of a keyed entry lever?
A bathroom or bedroom door normally takes a privacy lever, which locks from inside with a thumbturn rather than a key. The Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton is a Grade 3 privacy lever for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 2540 is a Grade 2 privacy lock with the Withnell lever for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors. The Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with the 5048 rose is another round-rose privacy option. The Yale Edge Keowee is a keyed entrance lever, so it uses a key on the outside instead.
19) My door is 2 inches thick - will a residential entry lever fit, or do I need something else?
Peers in this class that state a thickness range top out well below some commercial doors. If the leaf is 2 inches, the Hager 2525 Grade 2 entry lever covers 1-3/8 to 2 inch, the Deltana 6201 Manchester entry lever covers 1-3/8 to 2 inch, and the Falcon K101 Grade 1 covers 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch for a non-keyed opening. Confirm the leaf thickness before ordering, because a lever sized for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors such as the Cal-Royal AUS00 will not make up on a thicker door.
20) I want the same lever look on a door that does not move - what is the dummy version?
A dummy lever is surface-mounted trim with no latch, used on inactive leaves and closet doors that are held by a ball catch. The Callan Bentley is a Grade 2 dummy lever, the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is a Grade 2 non-keyed single dummy trim lever, and the BEST 9K Series 1DT is the Grade 1 heavy-duty single dummy. For a matched pair on a double door, Emtek supplies the Arts and Crafts and Hammered levers as dummy pairs. The Yale Edge Keowee is a functioning keyed entry set with a latch and strike plate in the box.
21) I want a keyed lever but do not want to issue keys - what are the keyless alternatives?
The Keowee is a single cylinder keyed set that ships with two keys and a removable cylinder for re-keying without special tools. If you would rather manage a code than a keyring, the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock, the Emtek Classic keypad leverset is a keypad option in the Classic series, and the Lockey 1150 is a heavy-duty mechanical keypad lever set with double combination in passage function for 1-1/8 to 2 inch doors. Keypad sets suit turnover units and short-term rentals where re-keying between tenants is the recurring cost.
22) Can I replace an old keyed knob with the Keowee lever, or do I need a knob again?
A keyed entrance knob and a keyed entrance lever both mount in the same bored prep, so swapping to a lever is the usual ADA-minded upgrade for a property manager. If you would rather stay with a knob, the Arrow HK11-BB is a turn-pushbutton entrance cylindrical lock with a ball knob and conventional cylinder for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch. The Keowee gives you non-handed levers, which means the same set works on a left or right hand door and you carry one part number instead of two.
23) I need a keyed lever and a deadbolt on the same door - is there a combo instead of buying both?
The Yale Edge Keowee is the lever set on its own, supplied with two levers, two roses, interior and exterior chassis, latch, strike plate, screws and two keys. If you want one carton covering both bores, the Callan Bennett is a Grade 3 entrance leverset with a deadbolt combo, which suits a front entry door that already has a second bore above the lock.
24) Can I use a lever instead of a knob on my rental unit entry doors for easier operation?
That is what the Keowee is. It is a lever handle rather than a knob, which is the grip style people generally find easier to operate with full hands or limited grip strength. Levers are also what most multi-family standardization programs move toward. If a knob is what you actually need to match existing doors, Arrow's RL Series HK11 is a turn-pushbutton entrance lock with a ball knob.
25) Is the Keowee lever metal or plastic construction?
Metal. The Keowee lever set is metal substrate throughout, Grade 3 rated. Worth knowing when you are comparing against low-end levers with plastic chassis parts on an entry door that sees daily key use.
26) What is the difference between the Keowee and a decorative brass entry lever like the Deltana or Baldwin sets?
The Keowee is a Grade 3 keyed entrance lever with a round rose in polished brass, satin nickel and oil rubbed bronze permanent. The decorative alternatives change the lever and rose styling rather than the function: Deltana offers the 5851 Claremont, 6201 Manchester, 6411 Morant and 6431 Linstead entry levers, the last three fitting doors 1-3/8 to 2 inch, and Baldwin offers the Estate 5103 lever on the 5048 rose in passage, privacy and half dummy versions for matching a whole run of doors. Pick on trim style and on the range of functions you need across the openings.
