Commercial entry lever lockset

This satin chrome lever lockset is built for commercial entry doors and meets ANSI Grade 2 requirements. It uses a 2-3/4" backset and an ASA strike measuring 1-1/4" x 4-7/8". The angled lever design complies with ADA guidelines and is UL listed for three-hour fire-rated single swing doors. The lock fits doors 1-3/8" to 1-3/4" thick and is reversible for left or right hand installation.

Installers needing a Grade 2 entry function

This lockset suits contractors and facility managers who need a durable, fire-rated entry lock for commercial buildings. The cushioned lever handle and separate spring mechanisms reduce lever sag over time. It is not suited for residential interior doors requiring only a privacy or passage function, nor for openings that demand a Grade 1 heavy-duty rating or electronic access control.

2-3/4" backset with ASA strike

The 2-3/4" backset combined with the 1-1/4" x 4-7/8" ASA strike determines whether this lock aligns with existing door prep. Verify the backset measurement and strike cutout on the door and frame before purchase. The lock also accepts Schlage, Arrow, Marks, AWI, Lori, Falcon, ASSA and most Medeco cylinders for rekeying into existing master key systems.

Questions about this item

How is the angled lever lockset installed, and which step is often done incorrectly?

Prepare a 2-3/4" backset bore and a 1-1/8" x 2-1/4" face-plate mortise; the step most often missed is leaving at least 2" clearance from the lever to the door surface and ensuring the lever returns to within 3/8" of the door face.

What maintenance or replacement will this Grade 2 cylindrical lock need later?

The separate spring mechanisms for each lever prevent arm sag, but heavy commercial use can wear the springs or the 1/2" latchbolt; both are serviceable, and the lock is rekeyable to accept Schlage, Arrow, Marks, AWI, Lori, Falcon, ASSA and most Medeco cylinders without replacing the chassis.

What limit appears first on this lockset under sustained heavy use?

The lever travels up to 50 degrees; continuous operation at that extreme angle will stress the internal spring mechanism before the Grade 2 cycle rating or the UL "A" label 3-hour fire endurance is reached.
