Yale Residential YR101NL-619 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Yale New Traditions Niagara passage lever fit a standard 2-1/8 inch bored door?
Yes. The Niagara passage lever set uses the standard residential prep: 2-1/8 inch cross bore through the face of the door and a 1 inch edge bore for the latch. If your door was previously fitted with a knob or lever on that prep, no new drilling is needed.
2) What door thickness does the Yale Niagara passage leverset work on?
It covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, which spans both the common older interior door and the standard 1-3/4 inch slab. Thicker doors past 1-3/4 inch are outside the range.
3) Does the Niagara passage lever lock, and where should I use it?
It does not lock. Passage function means both levers always retract the latch, with no keyway and no push button or turn. Use it on closets, hallways, pantries, and laundry rooms. For a bedroom or bathroom you want a privacy set with a push button instead, and for an exterior or office door you need a keyed entry function.
4) Is the Yale Niagara leverset rated for commercial use?
It is certified ANSI/BHMA Grade 3 and catalogued as residential duty. Grade 3 is the light residential tier, fine for apartment interiors, closets, and hall doors. For a commercial corridor or a school, step up to a Grade 2 or Grade 1 passage lever such as the Falcon B101 (Grade 2, medium duty) or the Falcon K101 (Grade 1, heavy duty).
5) I'm swapping out knobs on apartment closets for ADA-friendly levers. Is this the right replacement?
It is a straight lever-for-knob swap as long as the existing prep is 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 1 inch edge bore and the door is 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch thick, which covers most apartment interior doors. The lever handle replaces the twisting motion a knob requires. Screws are concealed by the round rose and the spindle is a strengthened square, so it holds up to repeated turnover.
6) Can I use the Yale Niagara passage lever on a fire-rated door?
No. The Niagara is a Grade 3 residential passage set with no fire rating behind it. If your opening needs a fire-rated passage lever, look at the Falcon K101 (Grade 1, fire rated, 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch doors) or the Corbin Russwin CL3110 (Grade 1, fire rated, 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors).
7) What is the closest residential equivalent to the Yale New Traditions Niagara YR101NL passage lever?
The Kwikset 200BRNL RDT Breton passage lever set is the nearest like-for-like alternative. Both are Grade 3 passage (hall/closet) levers with no keying, and both fit doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. The difference is the lever styling and rose design - the Niagara YR101NL uses a round rose with a free-flowing curved lever, while the Breton carries Kwikset's own trim. The Callan Asheville is another Grade 3 passage leverset in the same class if you prefer that styling.
8) I need a passage lever for a commercial corridor with heavy traffic - is the Niagara YR101NL the right choice?
The Niagara YR101NL is a Grade 3 residential lever, so for a high-traffic commercial corridor you would step up. The Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage cylindrical lock with non-handed levers and a fire rating, and the Falcon T101 is another Grade 1 heavy duty passage lever. The Dexter C1000 passage lever is Grade 1 with a clutching, non-keyed design for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For a middle step, the Hager 2510 and Falcon B101 are Grade 2 passage levers.
9) The bedroom and bathroom doors need to lock - what takes the place of the Niagara YR101NL there?
The Niagara YR101NL is passage function only, with no locking mechanism, so it suits closets and hallways. For bed and bath doors you want a privacy lever: the Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton privacy lever is Grade 3 like the Niagara and fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with 5048 rose is an option if you want a heavier decorative lever. On the commercial side the Hager 2540 is a Grade 2 privacy lock with the Withnell lever.
10) What should I order instead of the Niagara YR101NL for an exterior or office door that needs a key?
The Niagara YR101NL is non-keyed, so any door needing a key takes a different lock. In the same Grade 3 residential class, the Cal-Royal AUS00 is an entrance/office lever with a solid brass forged body for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Callan Artino is a Grade 3 entrance leverset. If you want a deadbolt with it, the Callan Bennett is a Grade 3 entrance leverset and deadbolt combo. For commercial entry, the Hager 2525 and Falcon B511CP6D are Grade 2 entrance levers.
11) My doors are 2 inches thick - will the Niagara YR101NL work, and if not what passage lever will?
The Niagara YR101NL covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, so a full 2 inch door is outside its range. The Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever fits 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock fits 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Arrow GL01 Grade 2 Sierra passage lever is built for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. The Corbin Russwin CL3110 Grade 1 vandal resistant passage lever also covers 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch.
12) For a school or healthcare facility passage door, should I standardize on the Niagara YR101NL?
The Niagara YR101NL is a Grade 3 residential passage lever, which is aimed at apartment interiors and light-use openings rather than institutional corridors. For a facility standard, the Design Hardware X75 is a Grade 1 passage lever lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors and the J75 is the Grade 2 version at the same thickness. The Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant, fire rated passage lever, and the Falcon K101 is Grade 1 heavy duty and fire rated - all better suited to the traffic and code review those buildings face.
13) Do I need to order the Yale Niagara lever handed for a left or right hand door?
No. The Niagara lever set is field reversible, so one part number covers both hands and you set the lever orientation during installation. That makes it easy to buy in quantity for a building without tracking handing door by door.
14) What comes in the box with the Yale New Traditions Niagara passage set?
Both levers, both round roses, the interior and exterior chassis, the latch, a strike plate, and four screws. The screws come pre-started, and the set installs with one tool, so you are not sourcing anything else to hang it on a pre-bored door.
15) I need matching privacy and entry levers for the rest of the house. Does the Niagara come in other functions?
The Niagara is one lever style in Yale's New Tradition family, which also includes the Mesa, Prairie, Savannah, Vernal, Vidalia, and Woodland levers, so you can hold a consistent look across the doors. For matched-look residential sets in other functions from a single family, the Kwikset Breton line is one route: the 200BRNL is the passage and the 300BRNL is the privacy, both Grade 3 on 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.
16) What is a dummy lever versus this passage lever, and which do I need?
The Niagara is a working passage set: it has a latch, a chassis, and a strike, and the lever retracts the latch. A dummy lever is surface mounted with no latch at all, used as a pull on a door held shut by a ball catch or on the inactive leaf of a pair. If your door has a latch bore, you want the passage set. If you just need a handle to pull on, a dummy such as the Callan Bentley or the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy is the correct part.
17) I have a false door leaf or a closet door that does not latch - can I use the Niagara YR101NL?
No. The Niagara YR101NL is a working passage set that includes a latch and strike plate and operates a latchbolt. For a non-operating leaf you want a dummy trim, which mounts to the face of the door with no latch: the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy is offered in left hand and right hand, the Callan Bentley is a Grade 2 dummy lever, and on the commercial side the BEST 9K Series 1DT is a Grade 1 heavy duty single dummy trim while the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is the Grade 2 medium duty version.
18) Is there a passage lever with a square rose rather than the round rose on the Niagara YR101NL?
Yes. The Niagara YR101NL uses a round rose. If the design calls for square trim, the Bravura Tampa is a Grade 2 passage leverset with square trim. Staying with round trim, the Bravura Atlanta, Orlando, and Miramar are all Grade 2 passage leversets with round trim, the Miramar listed in US4 satin brass.
19) What is the difference between the Niagara YR101NL and the Accentra 5301LN Augusta passage lever?
Both are non-keyed cylindrical passage levers for hall and closet openings. The Niagara YR101NL is a Grade 3 residential set in the New Tradition series with a round rose and a field reversible latch. The Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 lever from the 5300 Series, and the Accentra 4601LN carries the same Augusta trim design in the 4600 Series, also Grade 2. Choose on the grade your spec calls for and on which trim family the rest of the doors already use.
20) Does the Niagara YR101NL come in a keypad version?
No. The Niagara YR101NL is a mechanical, non-keyed passage lever with no code entry. If you want keypad access on a lever, the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock, the Emtek Classic keypad leverset is a decorative option, and the Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with double combination that fits doors 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch.
21) I want a decorative brass passage lever rather than the Niagara YR101NL - what are my options?
The Niagara YR101NL is a metal-bodied Grade 3 lever offered in finishes including 605 polished brass, 609 antique brass, and 613E dark oxidized satin bronze. For a heavier decorative look, the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever with the 5048 rose is a passage-function alternative, and the Deltana Manchester 6201, Morant 6411, and Linstead 6431 are entry-function decorative levers covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors if the opening needs to lock.
22) Can the Accentra 107S cylinder adapter kit be used with the Niagara YR101NL?
No - the Accentra 107S is a Schlage cylinder adapter kit for Yale hardware, and it only has a purpose on a keyed lock. The Niagara YR101NL is a non-keyed passage lever with no cylinder to adapt. If you need a Schlage C keyway on a keyed lever instead, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever is a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different set with a 2-3/8 inch backset, and the AG03 classroom lever uses the same keyway with a 2-3/4 inch backset.
23) What finishes does the Yale New Traditions Niagara lever come in?
Ten: Oil Rubbed Bronze Permanent (10BP), Polished Brass (605), Antique Brass (609), Dark Oxidized Satin Bronze (613E), Satin Nickel (619), Antique Nickel (620), Polished Chrome (625), Satin Chrome (626), Black Suede Powder Coat (BSP), and Gun Metal (GM). Satin Nickel and Oil Rubbed Bronze are the usual matches when you are blending into an existing apartment or house.
24) Is the Yale Niagara lever metal or plastic inside?
Metal construction throughout, with concealed holding screws and a strengthened square spindle driving the latch. The square spindle is the part that matters on a high-traffic hall or closet door, since that is where cheaper sets develop play.
