Yale Residential YR21MC-619 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the McClure privacy lever drop into an existing 2-1/8 inch bored door prep?
It does. The McClure takes a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and a 1 inch edge bore, which is the standard bored-lockset prep, so if you are pulling out an old knob or lever from a drilled door there is no new boring. Check the edge bore diameter on the old latch before you order, that is the one that occasionally differs on older residential doors.
2) Do I have to order the McClure lever left hand or right hand?
No handing to specify. The McClure lever is a non-handed design, so the same set works on a left or right hand door and you can stock one part number across a building.
3) Is a privacy lever the right function for a bathroom, or do I need a keyed lock?
Privacy is the correct function for a bathroom or bedroom. The McClure locks from the inside with a push or turn button and has no key cylinder at all, it is a non-keyed lockset. If you need a key on the outside for an office or a unit entry door, this is the wrong function. On the same style of cylindrical lever, a passage set like the Bravura Atlanta round-trim Grade 2 leverset has no lock at all for a hall or closet, and a keyed Grade 2 entry lever such as the Hager 2525 is what you want for a door that has to be locked from outside.
4) What is the difference between the Yale McClure privacy lever and the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever?
Both are non-keyed privacy lever sets for bedrooms and bathrooms, and both fit doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton is a Grade 3 set; the Yale McClure YR21MC is Grade 2 and is described as light commercial quality under ANSI/BHMA A156.2. The McClure uses concealed mounting screws with a round rose. For a rental unit turning over frequently, the grade difference is the deciding fact.
5) What is the closest equivalent to the Yale McClure privacy lever from another brand?
The Hager 2540 is the nearest match on paper: it is a Grade 2 cylindrical privacy lock with the Withnell lever, and it fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. The Yale McClure YR21MC is also a Grade 2 cylindrical lever with a privacy bed and bath function, fitting doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Hager covers a thicker door up to 2 inch; the Yale carries a round rose with concealed mounting screws. Both are non-keyed privacy sets for bathrooms and bedrooms.
6) Which levers look like the Yale McClure privacy set but will not lock a bathroom door?
Dummy levers are the common mix-up. The Accentra 455LN Augusta is a Grade 1 single dummy cylindrical lever, the BEST 9K Series 1DT and the BEST 7KC Series 1DT are single dummy trim levers, and the Callan Bentley is a Grade 2 dummy lever. A dummy is fixed trim with no latch, so it will not secure a bathroom. Passage sets are the other near-miss: the Accentra 5301LN Augusta and 4601LN are Grade 2 passage and hall/closet levers that latch but do not lock. The Yale McClure YR21MC is the privacy bed and bath function.
7) What is actually in the box with the Yale McClure privacy lever set, and do I need to order a strike separately?
Everything for one door is included: two levers, two roses, interior and exterior chassis, the latch, a strike plate and four screws. Mounting screws come pre-installed and are concealed once the roses are on, so there are no visible fasteners on the finished trim. You do not order a strike separately.
8) Is a Grade 2 residential lever like the Yale McClure tough enough for apartment turns and light commercial doors?
Grade 2 is the middle ANSI/BHMA tier and the McClure is certified to A156.2 Grade 2, which Yale positions as light commercial. That is a reasonable spec for apartment bedrooms and baths, hotel guest rooms and offices. For a high-traffic institutional opening, step up to a Grade 1 cylindrical lever such as the Falcon K101 or the Corbin Russwin CL3100 Series, both Grade 1 and fire rated.
9) What finishes does the Yale McClure privacy lever come in, and can I match it to other doors in the building?
Six finishes: 10BP oil rubbed bronze permanent, 605 polished brass, 613E dark oxidized satin bronze, 619 satin nickel, 620 antique nickel and 626 satin chrome. Those are standard BHMA finish codes, so if the hardware already on your other openings is called out as 626 or 619 on a schedule, the McClure matches it by number rather than by eye.
10) I need a matching passage and dummy lever to go with a Yale McClure privacy set on the same suite of doors. What do I use?
The McClure is sold as the privacy function, so for the closet and hall doors in the same run you need a passage set and for a fixed inactive leaf a dummy. Matching trim across functions has to come from within one design family, so specify the McClure passage and dummy from the YH Collection rather than mixing brands. If you are willing to change the lever design across the whole opening set, the Baldwin Estate 5103 is available as privacy, passage and left and right hand half dummy with the same 5048 rose, which covers every function in one look.
11) I ordered the Yale McClure privacy lever but the door is a hall or closet that does not need to lock. What do I use?
Privacy is the wrong function there; you want a passage set with no locking mechanism. In the same Grade 2 class, the Hager 2510 is a passage cylindrical lever lock with the Withnell design fitting 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 medium duty passage lever with a non-handed design, and the Bravura Atlanta and Orlando are Grade 2 passage leversets with round trim. The Yale McClure YR21MC itself is privacy only, suited to bathrooms and bedrooms.
12) Will a Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever do the same job as the Yale McClure?
The Baldwin Estate 5103 Privacy Lever with the 5048 rose carries the same privacy bed and bath function, so it locks the same way from inside a bathroom or bedroom. The Yale McClure YR21MC is a Grade 2 cylindrical lever with a round rose and a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 1 inch edge bore. The Baldwin is an Estate-line lever on a 5048 rose, and Baldwin also builds the 5103 as a passage set and as left and right hand half dummies, so a whole floor can be trimmed to match.
13) The Yale McClure is residential grade. What is the heavy duty equivalent for a school or hospital corridor?
The McClure YR21MC is a Grade 2 residential lever. For heavier traffic, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage cylindrical lock with non-handed levers, fire rated, covering doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Falcon T101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage lever. Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage lever, fire rated, for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. All three are passage function rather than privacy, so for a patient toilet needing a lock the Arrow MK02-TA privacy lock is the fire rated option.
14) If the bedroom door needs a key rather than a thumbturn, what replaces the Yale McClure?
The McClure YR21MC is non-keyed, so it cannot be keyed to a master system. Keyed alternatives in the same lever format include the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever, Grade 2, with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different and a 2-3/8 inch backset, fitting 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal AG05 Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt over the same door thickness range. The Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial entry lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
15) I want a matching set of levers across a unit - privacy on the bath, passage on the closet, dummy on the pantry. Which brands carry all three in one design?
Baldwin Estate 5103 with the 5048 rose is offered as a privacy lever, a passage lever, and left and right hand half dummies, so one trim design covers every opening in a unit. The Yale McClure YR21MC is the privacy function with a round rose and comes in Oil Rubbed Bronze Permanent, Polished Brass, Dark Oxidized Satin Bronze, Satin Nickel, Antique Nickel and Satin Chrome, so finish matching across a building is straightforward.
16) How many tools do I need to install a Yale McClure lever, and how long does one door take?
One tool. Screws are pre-installed and the interior sub-assembly uses a square spindle mounting system, so the chassis goes in, the roses snap over the fasteners and the levers set on the spindle. Non-handed too, so there is nothing to reverse. On a door already bored 2-1/8 inch it is a swap, not a carpentry job.
17) Is the Yale McClure lever solid metal or plastic-bodied?
Metal substrate throughout, with the interior sub-assemblies built for repeat cycling rather than trim-only strength. That is what separates it from a builder-grade lever where the chassis carries the load through a stamped or moulded part.
18) Can I put a keypad lever on a bathroom door instead of the Yale McClure privacy set?
Keypad levers are built for controlled access rather than bed and bath privacy. 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 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and Emtek offers a Classic Keypad Leverset. None of these give the inside thumbturn and outside emergency release pattern that the Yale McClure YR21MC privacy function provides for a bathroom or bedroom.
19) What is the difference between the Yale McClure Grade 2 lever and a Grade 3 lever like the Cal-Royal AUS00 or Callan Asheville?
Grade is the ANSI/BHMA durability class. The Yale McClure YR21MC is Grade 2 under ANSI/BHMA A156.2, described as light commercial quality. The Cal-Royal AUS00 is a Grade 3 entrance and office lever with a solid brass forged body for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Callan Asheville is a Grade 3 passage leverset in satin nickel. The Grade 3 sets are also different functions - entrance and passage - so they are not privacy replacements regardless of grade.
