Dynasty Hardware AUG-00-26D Grade 2 Commercial Duty Office Door Keyed Lever Lockset, ADA, Satin Chrome Finish

Made in Korea.Comparing with Sargent locks we had, it is not bad at all. Almost same feeling, similar weight(little lighter), works great with only 1/3 price.Both private and passage works great.Highly recommend

The instructions recommended through bolts, but I did not use them as it's a low use lock. You can get a good squeeze on a steel door without them. The screws have serrations in them to prevent them from backing out, so if you detect grinding, it's probably just doing its job.Follow the instructions exactly, particulary on mounting the lock key lever. If you try to wing it, the lock won't work right. Rotate the lock clockwise 90 deg with one hand and insert the lever with the key with your other hand. Took me a couple times.The levers have some play in them, so not super high quality. It's a value lock at a value price. It won't beat the true pro brands in fit and finish, however.

We have purchased multiple of these and they are perfect! The fit is amazing and clean

This is a commercial (Type 2) lever lockset. As such, it's a bit heavier and larger than a typical residential lockset, but it is also more rugged than a residential lockset. I had it re-keyed to match an existing C-style keyway that we had on other doors. This lock can use a longer 6-pin cylinder and key, but I had my locksmith modify it to match the other C-style 5-pin locks and keys that we have on our building. This simply requires removing one set of pins in the cylinder and the "bible". Everything went smoothly at the locksmith's. I had tried to re-key it myself with a re-keying kit from the local home improvement store, but this turned out to be outside my capability, and I had to bring the lock cylinder and pins to my locksmith in a plastic bag. I think he smiled knowingly when I explained my trials and tribulations. $15 and a couple of hours later, I was back in business with my re-keyed lockset. Installation was fairly easy with only a long screwdriver. One other compatibility problem that I encountered was that some doors have the lockset hole drilled 2 3/8" in from the door's edge and others 2 3/4". This lock comes with the 2 3/4" latch assembly only. Fortunately, the 2 3/8" variant is available on Amazon (and probably from your locksmith as well). You can check your door by measuring with a tape measure or ruler from the door edge to the center of the lockset hole in the face of the door. The latch assembly is mechanically different from those used on strictly residential locksets.

I am pleased with this product. Installation was easy and the hardware functions very well.Last week I completed a four-star review indicating that a small part called a lever filler was not in the package received. This was a mistake on my part. The lever filler was factory installed and not a part I needed to attend to. My apologies to the vendor.

Fits Perfectly, very heavy duty

I’ve been a property manager for many years, and I’ve never come across a lock this bad. The whole mechanism is overly complicated, the instructions don’t even match the model—they’re for a completely different one—and there’s no YouTube video or resource to help.This lock is pure crap. Don’t waste your time or money.

The latch itself seems pretty good as I did receive one of my order after waiting a month. The rest of my order has still not been shipped after over 5 weeks. Not impressed.
