Commercial Entry Door Levers

Shop commercial entry door levers and keyed door handles for offices, exterior entries, service rooms and other controlled-access openings. This collection centers on keyed entry and office-function lever hardware, with select electronic and interconnected configurations. Confirm how the outside and inside handles operate on the exact model before choosing a lockset.

Compare grade, backset, door thickness, latch and strike preparation, keyway or core format, handing and finish. For an exterior opening, also confirm the manufacturer's application requirements. Browse all commercial door levers to compare functions, use our mortise vs. cylindrical lock guide to identify the lock format your door needs, and review our ANSI/BHMA lock grade guide when comparing Grade 1, Grade 2 and Grade 3 hardware.

Commercial Entry Door Levers for Keyed Openings

Commercial entry door levers provide keyed or controlled access for offices, exterior entries, service rooms, utility spaces and other building openings. The collection includes traditional cylindrical keyed-entry and office-function levers along with select electronic and interconnected configurations. The precise operating function varies by product, so identify how the outside and inside levers must operate before choosing the lock. Compare storeroom levers or classroom levers when a different keyed function is specified.

Keying requirements are especially important on commercial projects. Products may use conventional cylinders, manufacturer-specific keyways, small-format interchangeable cores or less-cylinder and less-core preparations. If a new lever must work within an existing master-key or facility keying system, verify the cylinder and core requirements before ordering. A matching finish or lever design does not establish keying compatibility. Our SFIC vs. LFIC/FSIC guide explains core formats, and our keyed alike, keyed different and master keying guide compares common keying arrangements.

Check the physical door preparation as carefully as the function. Backset, bore dimensions, latch face, strike, door thickness, handing and trim dimensions can differ among lock families. Replacement work is simplest when the existing lock manufacturer, series and preparation can be identified. For new doors, coordinate the lock specification with the door and frame preparation before hardware is installed.

Grade, electronic features and listing information vary across the assortment. Some products are Grade 1 or Grade 2 commercial cylindrical locks, while electronic models may add keypad, credential or other access-control features. Confirm power, credential, cylinder and programming requirements on the individual product when selecting electronic hardware.

After function, preparation and keying are resolved, select the lever profile, trim and finish. Related passage levers and privacy levers from the same lock family can help coordinate adjoining rooms, but specify each opening by its actual operating requirements.
