Yale Residential YR161VI-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Yale New Traditions Vidalia lever fit a 1-3/8 inch interior door?
Yes. The Vidalia lever set covers doors from 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, so it drops onto older 1-3/8 inch interior doors and standard 1-3/4 inch doors alike. Anything thicker than 1-3/4 inches is out of range and you want a different lock.
2) Does the Yale Vidalia lever fit standard door prep, or do I have to re-bore?
Standard prep. The Vidalia takes a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and a 1 inch edge bore, which is the normal residential door prep, so a door already drilled for a knob or lever set takes it without new holes.
3) What does a one sided lever with plate actually do - does it latch?
The YR161VI Vidalia is trim only, one lever on a round rose plate. There is no latch and no working mechanism behind it, so it does not operate anything. Use it where you need a lever to pull on but no latching: a closet or pantry door held by a ball catch or roller catch, or the inactive leaf of a pair. If you need the door to latch shut, order a passage or privacy lever instead.
4) Is a Grade 3 lever good enough for an apartment I rent out?
Grade 3 is the residential duty level, and the Vidalia is certified ANSI/BHMA Grade 3 and catalogued for residential use. For unit interior doors, bedrooms, closets and bathrooms in a rental, that is the normal spec. For a corridor, an entry off a common area or anything a tenant hits dozens of times a day, step up to a Grade 2 or Grade 1 commercial lever, such as the Falcon B101 Grade 2 or the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock.
5) I need a lever for a closet that actually latches, not a dummy. What should I get instead?
Look at a passage function lever. In a Grade 3 residential build, the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever covers the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, or the Callan Asheville Grade 3 passage leverset in satin nickel. If the door sees heavier use, the Bravura Atlanta or Orlando round trim passage leversets are Grade 2. The Vidalia one sided trim will not latch a door on its own.
6) Can I use the Yale Vidalia one sided lever on a commercial office door?
Not the right pick. The Vidalia is a Grade 3 residential lever set, which is the light duty tier, and one sided trim at that. Commercial corridors and offices want Grade 1 or Grade 2 cylindrical locks with real function codes, such as the Hager 2525 Grade 2 entry lock, the Dexter C1000 Grade 1 entry/office lever, or the Corbin Russwin CL3110 Grade 1 passage lock.
7) What is the closest Grade 3 residential lever to the Yale New Traditions Vidalia YR161VI?
The Kwikset 200BRNL RDT Breton passage lever set is the nearest residential match. Both are Grade 3 levers and both fit doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, so the Breton drops into the same bore and thickness range the Vidalia is prepped for. The Vidalia is a one-sided lever with a round rose; the Breton 200BRNL is a passage set with levers on both faces. On a bedroom or hall door where you need a working lever on each side, the Breton covers it; where the Vidalia is being used for one-sided trim, the Breton is not doing the same job.
8) I need a bed and bath lever instead of the Vidalia YR161VI - what takes a privacy turn?
The Vidalia YR161VI is a Grade 3 lever with a round rose and no privacy function. For a bathroom or bedroom door, the Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton is a Grade 3 privacy lever set for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the same thickness range the Vidalia covers. The Hager 2540 is a Grade 2 cylindrical lock with the Withnell lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with the 5048 rose is the option if you want a decorative rose profile closer to the Vidalia's round trim.
9) The Vidalia YR161VI is Grade 3 - what should I use on a commercial corridor door instead?
The Vidalia is a Grade 3 residential lever. For commercial traffic, step up to a Grade 1 cylindrical lever: the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage lock with non-handed levers, fire rated, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage lever, fire rated, for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. Design Hardware X75 is a Grade 1 passage lever for 1-3/4 inch doors if you want a flat lever profile. Note the CL3110 and X75 start at 1-3/4 inch, so on a 1-3/8 inch door the K101 is the one that still fits.
10) What looks like a substitute for the Vidalia YR161VI one-sided lever but is not?
Dummy trim gets mistaken for it. The Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy comes handed, left hand and right hand as separate items, and the BEST 9K Series 1DT is a Grade 1 single dummy trim; the Emtek Arts and Crafts and Cortina dummies ship as pairs. Dummy trim is fixed and has no latch behind it. The Vidalia YR161VI is a lever set prepped for a standard bore - 2-1/8 inch cross bore, 1 inch edge bore - and is field reversible for either hand, so ordering handing is not part of the decision the way it is on the Baldwin half dummies.
11) I need a keyed entrance lever in the same Grade 3 class as the Vidalia YR161VI - what is there?
The Vidalia YR161VI is a Grade 3 lever without an entrance function. Staying at Grade 3, 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, matching the Vidalia's thickness range. The Callan Artino is a Grade 3 entrance leverset, and the Callan Bennett is a Grade 3 entrance leverset supplied as a deadbolt combo if the opening also needs a deadbolt keyed to it.
12) My door is 2 inches thick - the Vidalia YR161VI will not fit, what will?
The Vidalia YR161VI is rated for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For a 2 inch door, the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Deltana 6201 Manchester entry lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Dexter C1000 Series asylum function is a Grade 1 lock rated 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. If the door runs thicker still, the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lever goes to 2-1/4 inch.
13) What do I use instead of the Vidalia YR161VI on a classroom or storeroom door?
The Vidalia YR161VI is a Grade 3 residential lever and does not carry a classroom or storeroom function. For a classroom door, the Dexter C1000 Series classroom lever is Grade 1 with a clutching keyed lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Cal-Royal AG03 classroom lever is a Grade 2 with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different and a 2-3/4 inch backset. For a storeroom, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom lock with the Withnell lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
14) Is the Yale Vidalia lever handed, or can I use it on either swing?
Field reversible either hand. The New Traditions levers reverse on site, so you order one part and set it for a left or right hand door at install. For a matched pair of half dummies on French doors that means you are not tracking two part numbers, unlike the Baldwin Estate 5103, where the left hand and right hand half dummies are separate items.
15) What finishes does the Yale New Traditions Vidalia lever come in?
Five: 10BP Oil Rubbed Bronze Permanent, 619 Satin Nickel, 625 Polished Chrome, 626 Satin Chrome, and BSP Black Suede Powder Coat. If you are matching existing openings, note that 625 is bright and 626 is brushed, and 10BP is the permanent oil rubbed bronze rather than a living finish that changes with wear.
16) Can I match a Vidalia dummy lever to the working locks on the rest of my doors?
Within the New Tradition line, yes. The Vidalia lever is one of a family that also includes Mesa, Niagara, Prairie, Savannah, Vernal and Woodland, all sharing the same design language and finish range, so a Vidalia trim on a closet reads the same as a New Tradition passage or privacy lever down the hall. Match on finish code, not on finish name: 619, 625 and 626 are the codes to order against.
17) Will a round rose lever cover the old holes from a square trim lever I am replacing?
The Vidalia uses a round rose, so it covers a circular footprint around the 2-1/8 inch cross bore. Coming off square trim, the round plate may not reach the corners of the old finish outline or old screw marks. If matching the previous square shape matters, a square trim leverset such as the Bravura Tampa is the closer swap.
18) What is a mid-grade alternative to the Vidalia YR161VI for a light commercial building?
The Vidalia YR161VI is a Grade 3 lever built for residential openings. Between it and heavy duty Grade 1, the Grade 2 levers cover light commercial: the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 medium duty passage lever with a non-handed design, the Hager 2510 is a Grade 2 passage lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Accentra 5301LN Augusta from the 5300 Series is a Grade 2 passage function lever. All three are two-sided operating passage sets rather than the Vidalia's one-sided lever with round rose.
19) Which round-rose lever alternatives match the Vidalia YR161VI trim shape?
The Vidalia YR161VI uses a round rose. Other round-trim levers include the Bravura Atlanta and Bravura Orlando, both Grade 2 passage leversets with round trim, and the Bravura Miramar with round trim in a Grade 2 passage function. The Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever uses the 5048 rose. If you are matching round trim across a set of doors, the Bravura Tampa is the one to skip - it uses square trim.
20) Is there a keyless keypad lever I can use in place of the Vidalia YR161VI on a rental unit?
The Vidalia YR161VI is a mechanical Grade 3 lever with no code entry. For keyless, the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock, the Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with double combination in a passage function for doors 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch, and Emtek offers a Classic keypad leverset in its Classic series. The Lockey 1150 is mechanical code entry with no batteries; the Delaney LP250 is electronic.
21) Can I keep the Vidalia YR161VI and key it to my Schlage system?
The Vidalia YR161VI is a one-sided lever with a round rose and no cylinder. Where a Yale lock does need to accept a Schlage cylinder, the Accentra 107S is a Schlage cylinder adapter kit for Yale hardware. If you are standardizing new keyed openings on a Schlage C keyway instead, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever is a Grade 2 with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different and a 2-3/8 inch backset for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a Grade 2 asylum function lock with a conventional cylinder in a Schlage C keyway.
22) Are there knob alternatives if the Vidalia YR161VI lever is not what the opening needs?
The Vidalia YR161VI is a lever handle. If a knob suits the opening better, the Arrow HK11-BB is a turn-pushbutton entrance cylindrical lock with a ball knob and conventional cylinder, Grade 2, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch - the same thickness range the Vidalia covers. The Arrow MK02-TA is a privacy cylindrical lock with a Tudor knob, non-keyed and fire rated, for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. Keep in mind that levers, not knobs, are what ADA compliant openings call for.
23) If I am standardizing a whole building, is the Vidalia YR161VI or a series lock the better base?
The Vidalia YR161VI is a Grade 3 residential lever in the New Tradition series with a fixed 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 1 inch edge bore. For standardizing across functions, a commercial series carries multiple functions on one platform: Dexter C1000 Series spans Grade 1 entry/office, classroom, classroom security and asylum functions; Cal-Royal AG Series covers entrance, classroom and storeroom; Hager's 2500 line covers passage on the 2510, entrance on the 2525 and storeroom on the 2580. Those give you one keyway and one trim across a facility. The Vidalia's strength is a matched residential look across unit doors within the New Tradition family.
24) What tools do I need to install the Yale Vidalia lever, and are the screws visible?
One tool, and no screws show on the face. The New Tradition mounting uses concealed holding screws with pre-started screws in the rose, plus a strengthened square spindle. That means the plate goes on without exposed fasteners across the front and without swapping drivers mid job, which is what makes these quick when you are doing a run of doors in a turn.
25) Is the Yale New Traditions Vidalia lever metal or plastic inside?
Metal. The Vidalia is built on a metal substrate with a strengthened square spindle behind the lever, which is the part that takes the load when someone leans on the handle. Solid brass forged bodies are also available in the Grade 3 class if that is your spec, for example the Cal-Royal AUS00 entrance lever.
