Yale Residential YR70DM-605 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a Yale Dartmouth entry knob work on a 2 inch thick door?
No. The Dartmouth tops out at 1-3/4 inches. For a thicker slab, the Corbin Russwin CK4851 entrance/office cylindrical knob covers 1-3/8 to 2 inches, and the Falcon X101 goes to 2-1/4 inches. Check the door thickness before ordering if the slab is anything other than standard.
2) What door prep does the Yale Dartmouth YR70DM knobset need, and will it drop into an existing bored door?
Standard bored prep: a 2-1/8 inch cross bore through the face and a 1 inch edge bore for the latch. That is the same prep almost every cylindrical knob or lever sits in, so on a door already bored for a cylindrical lockset it drops straight in with no new boring. The mounting is surface, with concealed screws on the interior rose.
3) Is a single cylinder entry knob enough security for an apartment or rental unit door?
The Dartmouth entry knobset is keyed on the outside and push-button locked on the inside, ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Grade 2, which Yale positions as light commercial. For a unit entry door most property managers pair a knob like this with a separate deadbolt rather than relying on the knob alone. If the opening needs a heavier lock on its own, a Grade 1 entrance knob such as the BEST 8K Series is the step up.
4) Can I order Yale Dartmouth knobsets keyed alike across several doors?
Yes. Keying is a required choice at order: keyed different (KD) so each lock has its own key, or keyed alike (KA) so one key runs every lock in the group. Pick KA when you are doing a run of doors in one building and want a single key; pick KD for separate tenants or units. The knobs also come off for re-keying later without pulling the lock apart.
5) Is the Yale Dartmouth knob a Grade 2 lock, and how does that compare to the Grade 3 knobs sold for houses?
Grade 2, per ANSI/BHMA A156.2. That puts it a tier above the Grade 3 residential knobs like the Kwikset 400P-CP Polo keyed entry or the Cal-Royal BER00, which suit low-traffic house doors. For a common-area or unit door taking daily traffic, Grade 2 is the level buyers usually spec. Peer Grade 2 entrance knobs include the Dexter C2000 entry/office and the Callan Edgewood.
6) What is the closest Grade 2 keyed entry knob to the Yale Dartmouth YR70DM?
The Dexter C2000 Series entry/office cylindrical ball knob lock matches most closely on the specs that decide a swap. It is a Grade 2 keyed knob lock with an entrance/office function and fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the same door thickness range the Dartmouth YR70DM covers, and the Dartmouth is likewise a Grade 2 keyed entrance knobset. The Callan Edgewood is another Grade 2 entrance knobset if a round-knob look is what the other doors already wear. Confirm backset and strike prep against the existing opening before ordering either.
7) What should I use instead of the Yale Dartmouth knobset on a high-traffic commercial opening?
Step up to a Grade 1 keyed knob lock. The BEST 8K Series is a heavy duty Grade 1 single cylinder knob lock with an entrance function, and the Corbin Russwin CK4851 is a Grade 1 entrance/office cylindrical lock with a conventional cylinder that fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Dartmouth YR70DM is a Grade 2 entrance knobset built for residential and light commercial duty, so on a corridor or tenant entry seeing constant cycles the Grade 1 chassis is the one specified.
8) What knob lock should I use if the door is thicker than 1-3/4 inches?
The Dartmouth YR70DM is built for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For a thicker leaf, the Falcon X101 is a Grade 1 cylindrical passage knobset with an interchangeable core that covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Corbin Russwin CK4851 Grade 1 entrance/office knob covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch if the opening needs to stay keyed. Among the decorative lines, the Deltana 6171 Round Knob entry also runs 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. Measure the leaf at the lock stile before ordering.
9) What is the difference between the Yale Dartmouth entry knob and a storeroom function knob lock?
Function, not grade. The Sargent 6G04 is a Grade 2 storeroom/closet knob lock with a single cylinder, and the Sargent 8XG04 is the Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom version with a 2-3/4 inch backset. A storeroom knob keeps the outside knob locked at all times and requires the key on every entry. The Dartmouth YR70DM is an entrance function with push button locking, so the occupant can leave the door unlocked during the day and set it from the inside. For a mechanical room or supply closet where the door should never be left unsecured, the storeroom function is the correct specification.
10) What finishes does the Yale Dartmouth entry knob come in for matching existing hardware?
Six: 10BP oil rubbed bronze permanent, 605 polished brass, 613E dark oxidized satin bronze, 619 satin nickel, BSP black suede powder coat, and GM gun metal. 619 satin nickel and 10BP are the two that most often match existing multi-family and light commercial hardware; 613E is the darker living-finish bronze look.
11) What comes in the box with the Yale YR70DM Dartmouth knobset, or do I need to buy a latch and strike separately?
Everything for the opening is in the carton: two knobs, two roses, interior and exterior chassis, the latch, a strike plate, four screws and two keys. Mounting screws are pre-installed. Nothing else is required to hang it on a bored door, though you supply the deadbolt if the opening calls for one.
12) Do I need to specify handing for a Yale Dartmouth cylindrical knob lock?
No. The Dartmouth is a bored cylindrical knobset with the same round rose and knob on both faces, so it goes on a left or right hand door either way. Handing only matters when you set the latch bevel toward the door's closing direction during install.
13) I need matching passage and privacy knobs to go with a keyed entry knob. Does the Yale Dartmouth cover those functions?
The Dartmouth YR70DM is the keyed entry function only, single cylinder. If you want one look carried across entry, passage and privacy doors in the same job, the Dexter C2000 Series runs all three as Grade 2 ball knobs (entry/office, passage, privacy, plus classroom), and the Pamex FTF Baron does entrance/office, privacy and passage at Grade 3. Those are the sets to look at when the whole suite has to match.
14) Is there a fire rated knob lock alternative to the Yale Dartmouth?
The Falcon W101 is a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical knob lock carrying a fire rating, in the passage/closet latch function with a 2-3/4 inch backset. The Falcon X101 is the Grade 1 heavy duty passage knobset with an interchangeable core and also carries a fire rating, covering doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Both are passage function, so where a rated opening needs to stay keyed the function has to be resolved separately. The Dartmouth YR70DM is the Grade 2 keyed entrance knobset.
15) Is there a simpler keyed entry knob than the Yale Dartmouth for a rental unit?
Yes. The Kwikset 400P-CP Polo keyed entry knob is a Grade 3 entrance knob that fits 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors and ships with a round corner adjustable latch and round corner strike. The Cal-Royal BER00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office knob lock with a Kwikset keyway, which matters if the building is already keyed to Kwikset. The Dartmouth YR70DM sits a grade above both at Grade 2. Where the same door needs to hold a key schedule across many units, the keyway of the Cal-Royal is the deciding detail.
16) Which knob matches the Yale Dartmouth on the doors that do not need a key?
For the interior doors in the same run, use a passage or privacy knob rather than a keyed one. The Dexter C2000 passage knob is a Grade 2 non-keyed passage/hall/closet lock and the Dexter C2000 privacy knob is the Grade 2 bed and bath version, both fitting 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors like the Dartmouth YR70DM. Corbin Russwin CK4410 is another Grade 2 non-keyed passage/closet knob over the same door thickness range. The Dartmouth YR70DM itself is the keyed single cylinder entrance function, so it belongs on the exterior or unit entry door only.
17) Will a Baldwin or Emtek knob work as a substitute for the Yale Dartmouth entry knobset?
Not as a like-for-like on a keyed opening. The Baldwin Estate 5000 Baltimore knob is a passage lock and the Baldwin Estate 5077 Bethpage is a privacy knob, so neither accepts a key. The Emtek Classic Brass Crystal Georgetown and Providence knobsets are dummy pairs, which means no latch at all. The Dartmouth YR70DM is a single cylinder keyed entrance knobset. If the look of those lines is what is wanted on the entry door, the keyed function has to come from somewhere else.
18) Which knob lock should I use on a classroom door instead of the Yale Dartmouth?
The Dexter C2000 Series classroom knob lock is the one specified for that opening. It is a Grade 2 keyed classroom function knob fitting doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the same range the Dartmouth YR70DM covers. A classroom function locks and unlocks the outside knob by key only, with no inside push button to defeat it. The Dartmouth YR70DM is the entrance function with push button locking, which is the wrong behavior for a room that has to be secured from the corridor.
19) What do I order for the closet and dummy doors to match a Yale Dartmouth entry knob?
Dummy trim is a knob and rose with no latch, used on inactive leaves and closet doors that only need a pull. The Schlage A170 is a Grade 2 single dummy trim knob for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch, and the BEST 6K Series single dummy trim is a Grade 2 medium duty version. The Bravura Biloxi with round trim is a Grade 2 dummy knobset if a round rose is what is going on the other doors, matching the round rose design of the Dartmouth YR70DM. Order the dummy trim by hand of door only; there is no bore or backset to match.
20) Can a keyless combination knob replace the Yale Dartmouth entry knobset?
Only where a code is acceptable in place of a key. The Lockey 3830 is a mechanical keyless combination knob lock with an auto-locking passage function, fitting doors 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch. It takes no key and no key schedule, which suits a shared utility or amenity door where handing out keys is the problem. The Dartmouth YR70DM is a single cylinder keyed entrance knobset and can be ordered keyed alike across a group of doors, which the combination lock cannot do.
21) Is exit device knob trim the same as a Yale Dartmouth knobset?
No. The Sargent 28C-KNOB is exit device trim with a knob and rose for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Imperial USA ED-BKL580 is knob trim in a storeroom function for the ED-500 Series. Trim mounts to an existing exit device and has no chassis or latch of its own, so it does not fit a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore. The Dartmouth YR70DM is a complete cylindrical knobset with its own latch, strike and chassis, boring for a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 1 inch edge bore.
22) How does the Dartmouth knob lock from the inside, and is there a turn button or a thumbturn?
Push button on the inside knob. Press it and the outside knob is locked; the key retracts it from outside. There is no thumbturn and no deadbolt in this lockset, so the security is the latch plus whatever separate deadbolt is on the door.
23) What are the Grade 3 entry knob options compared with the Yale Dartmouth?
Several. The Callan Canova and Callan Santo are Grade 3 entrance knobsets, and Delaney offers Grade 3 entrance knobsets in the Belton, Galway and Olivia designs. The Master Lock BC Series biscuit knob is a Grade 3 keyed entry knob, and the Pamex FTF Baron is a Grade 3 entrance/office knob lockset for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Dartmouth YR70DM is Grade 2, a cycle and strength tier above these under ANSI/BHMA A156.2, and offers removable knobs for re-keying.
