Accentra ARR-8809FL-626-RH – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Accentra 8809FL mortise lock fit a 1-3/4 inch commercial door?
Yes. The 8809FL takes doors from 1-3/4 inches up to 3-1/4 inches thick, so a standard 1-3/4 inch hollow metal or solid core commercial door is at the thin end of the range. That upper limit also lets it go into thick wood or clad doors that most mortise locks will not cover. Backset is 2-3/4 inches, the usual commercial mortise backset.
2) Do I need to order the 8809FL handed, or can I flip it in the field?
Handing is field reversible on the 8809FL, both the latchbolt and the lever, so a lock that arrives set for the wrong hand can be changed on the jobsite. Left hand and right hand are both offered when ordering, so pick the hand of the opening and keep the field adjustment as your backup.
3) Will the 8809FL latch into my existing ANSI mortise strike?
The latchbolt throws 3/4 inch, which is the standard commercial mortise latch projection, so it engages a normal ANSI 4-7/8 inch mortise strike pocket. The mortise pocket itself has to be routed to the 8800 Series template with a 2-3/4 inch backset, so it will drop into an existing mortise prep of that geometry but not into a cylindrical bore.
4) What does the classroom function on the 8809FL actually do?
Classroom/office function: the outside lever is locked and unlocked by key from the outside, and the inside lever always retracts the latch for free egress. There is no way to lock or unlock it from inside the room without the key, which is why schools that want teachers to secure a door from inside often specify an intruder or classroom security function instead. The 8809FL is a single cylinder lock, keyed outside only.
5) Can I use the Accentra 8809FL on a 3-hour fire rated door?
Yes. The 8809FL is UL/cUL listed for 3-hour fire rated doors, which covers stair and corridor openings in schools, hospitals and offices where a 3-hour assembly is required.
6) Is the 8809FL Grade 1 for security as well as operation?
Certification is to ANSI/BHMA A156.13, Series 1000, Operational Grade 1. Security Grade 1 applies to the 8800FL with the CN escutcheon and to the SL8800, so if your spec calls for Security Grade 1 you need the escutcheon trim version rather than the rose.
7) Can I get the 8809FL without a cylinder so I can key it to my own system?
Yes, less cylinder is one of the two cylinder choices, which is what a locksmith wants when the building is already on an existing master key system. The alternative is a conventional cylinder in the PARA-E1R keyway supplied with the lock. Order less cylinder only if you are furnishing a mortise cylinder, since the lock will not secure without one.
8) What is a direct alternative to the Accentra 8809FL classroom mortise lock from another manufacturer?
The Accentra 8809FL is a Grade 1 mechanical classroom-function mortise lock with a lever. Two close mechanical equivalents are the Corbin Russwin ML2003, a Grade 1 mortise classroom lockset in the ML2000 Series rated for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal NM8070, a heavy duty Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch, also listed for 1-3/4 inch doors. The 8809FL accepts a wider door thickness range of 1-3/4 inch to 3-1/4 inch and is offered with either CN escutcheon or rose trim.
9) We want a classroom lock where staff can lock the door from inside during a lockdown - is the 8809FL the right choice?
The Accentra 8809FL is a classroom function lock, which is keyed from the outside. If your district requires lockdown from inside the room, look at the BEST 45HCAINL, a heavy duty mortise lock body with intruder function, or the TownSteel FME-4000, an electronic intruder classroom mortise lockset with RFID for 1-3/4 inch doors. The 8809FL is also available with status indicator options showing locked or unlocked state.
10) I need classroom security with keyless access instead of a key cylinder - what mortise lock should I look at?
The Accentra 8809FL is a mechanical keyed lock using a single cylinder. If you want credential or code-based access on a classroom opening, the TownSteel FME-2000 is a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom mortise lockset with RFID technology for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Alarm Lock DL3500CR is a Grade 1 electronic classroom-function mortise lock with 300 user codes for doors 1-5/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch. Note the electronic units carry a narrower door thickness range than the 8809FL, which covers 1-3/4 inch to 3-1/4 inch.
11) Should I order the 8809FL with rose trim or escutcheon trim?
Two trim choices: R rose and CN escutcheon. The escutcheon is the heavy-duty vandal-resistant plate and it is the version that carries Security Grade 1, so it suits schools, dorms and other abuse-prone openings. The rose is the cleaner look for offices and lower-traffic doors. Both come with the Arcadia lever.
12) Can I tell from the hallway whether the 8809FL is locked?
Status indicator trim is offered in the 8800 Series, which shows locked or unlocked at the door without trying the lever. That is commonly specified for schools and healthcare. If a visible indicator is the requirement, the Marks USA LA318GJ is another Grade 1 classroom security indicator mortise lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors.
13) Is the Accentra 8809FL electronic or does it need any wiring?
Purely mechanical. The 8809FL is a keyed lever mortise lock with no electronics and no power requirement. If the opening needs access control, the mortise alternatives we carry include the BEST 45HW wired electromechanical mortise lock running 12V or 24V and the Command Access ML190 motorized mortise lock at 24VDC.
14) Can I standardize a whole building on the 8800 Series and still have different door functions?
Yes, that is the usual way it is done. The 8809 is the classroom/office function within the 8800 Series; the series covers functions for other commercial openings, so you can hold one trim design, the Arcadia lever, and one finish across storerooms, offices and classrooms while changing only the function. Ordering less cylinder on each lets your locksmith key the whole building to one system.
15) The 8809FL is classroom function but my opening is an office or storeroom - what should I order instead?
Function is the deciding spec on a mortise lock. The Accentra 8809FL is classroom/office function. For a dedicated storeroom opening, the Cal-Royal NM8080 is a heavy duty Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset with an interchangeable core option; for an office or entrance opening, the Cal-Royal NM8050 is a Grade 1 office/entrance mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch, and the Hager 3850E is a Grade 1 office mortise lock with lever and escutcheon on a 2-3/4 inch backset, matching the 8809FL backset.
16) Is a passage or privacy mortise lock an acceptable substitute for the 8809FL?
No. The Accentra 8809FL is keyed with a single cylinder in classroom function, so it provides key control the non-keyed bodies do not. The Falcon MA101 and Schlage PM010 are Grade 1 passage mortise locks with no key, and the Cal-Royal NM8440 is a Grade 1 privacy mortise lockset with deadbolt for bed and bath openings. Those suit doors that only need latching or occupancy privacy, not keyed classroom control.
17) My classroom lock needs to be access-control ready and tie into a system - what mortise options do that?
The Accentra 8809FL is a mechanical lock with no electronics. For openings that must be electrically controlled, the Command Access ML190 is a heavy duty motorized mortise lock with field selectable EL/EU operation on 24VDC in storeroom function, the BEST 45HW is a wired electromechanical mortise lock with 12V/24V operation, and the Schlage LEMD-GRW is a Grade 1 wireless mortise lock with a 125kHz proximity reader and a 3 hour fire rating, matching the 8809FL UL listing for 3-hour fire rated doors.
18) Will a Baldwin 6310 mortise lock body drop into the same prep as the Accentra 8809FL?
No. The Accentra 8809FL uses a 2-3/4 inch backset, while the Baldwin 6310 entry/storeroom mortise lock body is a 2-1/2 inch backset unit for doors 1-3/8 inch and over, as is the Baldwin 6301 entry/apartment body for doors 1-3/4 inch and over. The backset difference means different door prep. For a 2-3/4 inch backset alternative, the Hager 3800 Series mortise locks use the same 2-3/4 inch backset.
19) For a dormitory corridor rather than a classroom, is there a better mortise lock than the 8809FL?
The Accentra 8809FL is built for classroom and office openings. For residence hall corridors, the Sargent 7925 is a heavy duty Grade 1 mortise lock in dormitory exit function with rose trim and a single cylinder deadbolt. The 8809FL is also available with rose trim in addition to the CN escutcheon.
20) My behavioral health facility needs anti-ligature trim - can I use the 8809FL?
The Accentra 8809FL uses an Arcadia lever on escutcheon or rose trim, which is a conventional commercial lever rather than ligature resistant. For those openings, the TownSteel MRX-L-01 is a Grade 1 heavy duty anti-ligature lever mortise lockset in passage function for 1-3/4 inch doors, the MRX-A-01 is the same passage function with satin stainless ligature resistant arch trim, and the Marks USA 5PDN is a Grade 1 hospital passage mortise push/pull paddleset that is ligature resistant and ADA compliant.
21) What finish does the Accentra 8809FL come in?
626 Satin Chrome is the finish offered, across both trim styles, both handings and both cylinder options. If the rest of the building is on satin chrome or brushed nickel-look hardware it will read consistently; a bright brass or oil rubbed opening will not match.
22) I need a matching non-functioning lever on a companion door alongside the 8809FL - what do I use?
The Accentra 8809FL is an active keyed classroom lock, so it is not the part for an inactive leaf. For dummy trim on a companion door, the Schlage L0170 is a Grade 1 mortise non-keyed half dummy lever trim for 1-3/4 inch doors. Emtek also offers dummy mortise entrance locksets in several lever styles including the 3102 Memphis and the 3106 Manhattan.
