Yale Residential YR21NW-626-RH – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Yale Norwood privacy lever fit a 1-3/8 inch interior door?
Yes. The YH Collection Norwood privacy leverset covers doors from 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches thick, which takes in both the older 1-3/8 inch interior doors common in residential work and standard 1-3/4 inch stock. Outside that range you need a different lock.
2) Does the Norwood lever drop into an existing 2-1/8 inch bored door prep?
It does. The Norwood takes a 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 1 inch edge bore, which is the standard prep already cut in almost any door that has a bored knob or lever on it now. If you are swapping out old residential hardware you should not need to drill anything.
3) Do I have to order the Yale Norwood lever left hand or right hand?
Handing is an order choice on the Norwood: every finish is offered in a left hand and a right hand version, so pick the one matching your door swing when you order. The lever chassis itself is described as non-handed, so the handing selection is about which way the lever points, not about reworking the lock.
4) Is a privacy lever the right function for a bathroom, or do I need a keyed lock?
For a bathroom or bedroom, privacy is the function you want. The Norwood is non-keyed: it locks from the inside with a push button or turn and there is no cylinder to key. If you need the door to lock from the outside with a key, this is the wrong function and you want an entrance or storeroom lockset instead.
5) Is the Yale YH Collection Norwood lever rated for a commercial building or apartment turns?
The Norwood is ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Grade 2 and Yale positions the YH Collection as light commercial. Yale lists it as residential product, so it suits apartments, condos and multi-family interior doors. For high traffic openings in a school, hospital or office corridor, step up to a Grade 1 cylindrical lock such as the Falcon K101 or the Corbin Russwin CL3110.
6) Will the Yale Norwood work on a 2 inch thick door?
No. The Norwood tops out at 1-3/4 inches. For a thicker door look at the Hager 2510 or Deltana Manchester at 1-3/8 to 2 inches, the Dexter C1000 at 1-3/8 to 2 inches, or the Falcon K101 which goes to 2-1/4 inches. None of those are a privacy lever in the same trim, so confirm the function you need before substituting.
7) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to the Yale YH Collection Norwood YR21NW privacy leverset?
The Norwood YR21NW is a Grade 2 privacy/bed/bath lever with a round rose, fitting doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Hager 2540 Withnell is also a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock and covers a wider 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness, so it carries into thicker commercial doors the Norwood range stops short of. If the opening is residential and the door falls inside 1-3/8 to 1-3/4, both cover it; above 1-3/4 inch the Hager 2540 is the one that fits.
8) Is the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever the same thing as the Yale Norwood privacy lever?
They serve the same opening but sit at different certification levels. The Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton is a Grade 3 privacy/bed/bath lever set for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Yale Norwood YR21NW is Grade 2 across the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 door thickness. For a bedroom or bath door in a single-family rental either function identically; where a spec or a multi-family standardization calls for ANSI/BHMA Grade 2, the Breton does not meet it.
9) I need a privacy lock for a bathroom door that is 2 inches thick - what works instead of the Yale Norwood?
The Norwood YR21NW is built for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, so a 2 inch leaf is outside it. The Arrow MK02-TA is a privacy/bed/bath cylindrical lock rated for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors and carries a fire rating, though it is a Tudor knob rather than a lever. If the opening needs a lever at 2 inches, the Hager 2540 Withnell privacy lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
10) Which lever should I use for a bathroom in a school or hospital instead of a Norwood privacy lever?
The Norwood YR21NW is a Grade 2 residential-rated privacy lever. Institutional restrooms usually call for a Grade 1 or an institutional function: the Dexter C1000 Series Asylum (F87) is a Grade 1 cylindrical lock for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a heavy duty Grade 2 asylum/institution/utility lock with a conventional cylinder in Schlage C keyway. Both give staff key override that a non-keyed privacy lever does not provide.
11) What comes in the box with the Yale Norwood privacy leverset, and do I need to buy a strike separately?
Everything for one door is included: two levers, two roses, the interior and exterior chassis, the latch, a strike plate and four screws. The mounting screws are pre-installed and concealed behind the rose, so the finished side shows no fasteners, and Yale says the install takes one tool.
12) What finishes does the Yale Norwood lever come in for matching the rest of a building's doors?
Ten finishes across the Norwood: 10BP oil rubbed bronze permanent, 605 polished brass, 609 antique brass, 613E dark oxidized satin bronze, 619 satin nickel, 620 antique nickel, 625 polished chrome, 626 satin chrome, BSP black suede powder coat and GM gun metal. Each one is available in both handings, so a whole floor can be standardized on one finish.
13) What is a comparable privacy lever to the Yale Norwood if I want a different brand?
Closest on function and trim style is the Hager 2540 with the Withnell lever, a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock. The Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with the 5048 rose is the decorative option. If you are working to a lighter residential budget, the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever is Grade 3 and covers the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door range as the Norwood.
14) Can I key the Yale Norwood lever into my master key system?
No. The Norwood privacy lever has no cylinder at all, so it cannot be keyed or master keyed. Any opening that has to be on the keyway needs a keyed function lock, for example the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever or AG05 storeroom lever, both Grade 2 and both fitting 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors like the Norwood does.
15) What is the passage version to pair with a Yale Norwood privacy lever on hall and closet doors?
The Norwood YR21NW is privacy/bed/bath only, so hall and closet doors on the same run need a passage lock. At the same Grade 2 level, the Accentra 5301LN Augusta and the Accentra 4601LN are both passage/hall/closet cylindrical lever locks, from the 5300 and 4600 Series respectively. The Hager 2510 Withnell is another Grade 2 passage lever, covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Trim design will not match the Norwood lever across brands, so a suite that must look identical should stay within one family.
16) Can I use a Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever in place of the Yale Norwood on a bedroom door?
The Baldwin Estate 5103 Privacy Lever with 5048 Rose is a privacy/bed/bath lever with a round rose, the same function and rose profile family as the Norwood YR21NW. The difference to check is handing: the Norwood is a non-handed design, while Baldwin's Estate 5103 half dummy is offered as distinct left hand and right hand parts, so within that family handing is specified at order. For a bedroom or bath door either delivers the same push-button-style privacy operation.
17) Does the Accentra 455LN Augusta lever work as a substitute for a Norwood privacy lever?
No. The Accentra 455LN Augusta is a Grade 1 single dummy from the 5400 Series, which means the lever is fixed trim with no latch and no locking mechanism. The Norwood YR21NW is a privacy/bed/bath lock that latches and locks. A dummy like the 455LN, the BEST 9K 1DT or the BEST 7KC 1DT belongs on an inactive leaf or a closet door with a ball catch, not on a bathroom or bedroom door.
18) What do I use for a bedroom door in an apartment that needs to lock with a key rather than a privacy button?
The Norwood YR21NW is non-keyed, so a keyed opening needs a different lock. The Cal-Royal AG00 is a Grade 2 entrance lever 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, the same thickness band the Norwood covers. The Falcon B511CP6D is a Grade 2 medium duty entry/office cylindrical lever, and the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 entry lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
19) Is there a heavier duty lever than the Yale Norwood for a high traffic corridor door?
The Norwood YR21NW is Grade 2 and residential rated. For corridor traffic the Grade 1 options are heavier: the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty non-handed passage lock, fire rated, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch; the Falcon T101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage lever with pressure release technology; and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant, fire rated passage lever for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. All three are passage function, so they do not lock - a corridor door needing privacy is a different specification.
20) Is the Yale Norwood lever a solid metal lever or plated plastic?
Metal construction throughout the Norwood, with a round rose and a square spindle drive in the chassis. Yale calls the interior sub-assembly strength part of why the lock stays smooth over time, and the roses are sculptured rather than a flat stamped plate.
21) I want the same look as the Norwood round rose lever but in a passage function from another brand - what matches?
The Norwood YR21NW uses a round rose design. Bravura offers round trim passage leversets in the Miramar, Atlanta and Orlando series, all Grade 2, matching the Norwood grade and the round trim profile. The Bravura Tampa is square trim, so it will not read the same on a run of doors. Lever shape still differs between families even where the rose is round.
22) Can a keypad leverset replace the Norwood privacy lever on a bathroom or office door?
They are different jobs. The Norwood YR21NW is a non-keyed privacy lock, locked from inside for a bedroom or bath. A keypad set like the Delaney LP250 electronic keypad leverlock, Grade 2, or the Lockey 1150 heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with double combination for 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors controls entry by code from the outside. Use the keypad where you need to admit people without keys, not where an occupant needs to secure themselves inside.
23) What is the simpler option if the door only needs a lever and no lock at all?
Where the door does not need to lock, a passage lever costs less hardware than the Norwood privacy set. The Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 medium duty non-handed passage lever, the Design Hardware J75 is a Grade 2 flat passage lever for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Kwikset 200BRNL RDT Breton is a Grade 3 passage lever for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. If the lever is only decorative on a fixed leaf, the Callan Bentley Grade 2 dummy or an Emtek Cortina dummy pair covers it.
