Yale Residential YR81VL-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Yale Valdosta single dummy lever have a latch, or is it just a pull?
No latch and no lock. The Valdosta single dummy is a fixed lever on a rose that mounts to the door face and serves as a push/pull only, for interior doors like closets, pantries, and the inactive leaf of a French pair. If you need the door to stay shut, you need a passage or privacy lever instead, plus a catch such as a roller or ball catch to hold it closed.
2) Do I need to bore the door for a Yale YH Collection dummy lever?
The dummy mounts to the surface of the door, so no 2-1/8 inch cross bore or 1 inch edge bore is required for the dummy itself. That said, the Valdosta shares the YH Collection's standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 1 inch edge bore prep, which is what matters if you're putting dummies on doors already drilled for locksets, or matching them to keyed and passage YH levers on the same standard prep.
3) Will the Valdosta dummy lever work on a 1-3/8 inch door?
Yes. The Valdosta covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, which spans the common older interior slab at 1-3/8 and the standard 1-3/4 inch door. That range is why the same lever can go on hollow-core closet doors and heavier solid interior doors in the same building without ordering two different parts.
4) Is the Valdosta lever handed? Do I have to order left or right?
Non-handed, so there is no left or right hand to specify. One part number works on either swing, which keeps the count simple when you are ordering dummies for a whole floor of closets and don't want to survey each opening.
5) What do I have to specify when ordering a Yale YR81VL Valdosta dummy?
Two choices: rose shape and finish. Rose is round or square. Finishes run 10BP Oil Rubbed Bronze Permanent, 613E Dark Oxidized Satin Bronze, 619 Satin Nickel, 625 Polished Chrome, 626 Satin Chrome, and BSP Black Suede Powder Coat, and every one of those six is offered on both the round and the square rose. There is no handing and no keying to call out.
6) Is a dummy lever strong enough for an apartment or light commercial interior door?
The Valdosta is built to ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Grade 2, which Yale positions as light commercial quality, and the lever body is metal rather than plastic. Grade 2 is the tier normally specified for multi-family and light commercial interiors, so it holds up better under tenant turnover than a builder-grade residential dummy.
7) Can I match Valdosta dummy levers to the keyed and passage levers already on my other doors?
If the rest of the openings are Yale YH Collection, yes. Valdosta is a YH Collection design, so ordering the dummy in the same finish code and rose shape as your passage and keyed YH levers gives you a matched set down the hall. Match the finish by code (619 Satin Nickel, 626 Satin Chrome, and so on) rather than by name, and match the rose shape, round or square, since both are offered here.
8) Single dummy or a pair of dummy levers for French doors?
Single dummy means one lever for one side of the door. On a French pair or any door you want a pull on both faces, you need two. Buy per lever face, not per door, and keep the finish code and rose shape identical across the order.
9) What comes in the box with a Yale Valdosta single dummy lever?
One lever, one rose, a strike plate, and two screws. Mounting screws come pre-installed and sit concealed once the rose is on, so the finished face has no visible fasteners. Installation takes a single tool.
10) Does the round rose Valdosta look different from the square rose version?
Same lever, different rose footprint. The Valdosta's round rose is the classic YH profile with sculptured curves; the square rose gives a more contemporary edge. Both carry all six finishes, so the choice is trim styling, not function, and it is worth matching whatever rose shape is on the operating levers in the same room.
