Accentra AUR8809FL-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Do I have to order the Accentra 8809FL handed for a left hand or right hand door?
No handing to specify. The 8809FL is field reversible, so one part number covers left and right hand openings and the installer flips the latchbolt and lever orientation on site. That matters if you are stocking spares for a building with doors swinging both ways, since a single shelf item covers every opening.
2) What does the classroom function on the 8809FL actually do at the door?
Classroom/office function means 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 inside button or turn, so the door cannot be left locked by accident by someone inside, and it cannot be locked from inside during a lockdown either. If you need a teacher to lock the room from within the classroom, this is the wrong function and you want an intruder or classroom security lock instead, such as the BEST 45HCA lockbody in Intruder function or the TownSteel FME-4000, which is an electronic intruder classroom mortise lock.
3) Is the Accentra 8809FL approved for a fire rated classroom door?
Yes. The 8809FL is UL/cUL listed for 3 hour fire rated doors, and it carries ANSI/BHMA A156.13 Series 1000 Operational Grade 1 certification. Worth knowing for a spec: the 8800FL with the CN escutcheon and the SL8800 are the versions that also meet Security Grade 1, so if your drawing calls for Security Grade 1 rather than Operational, order the CN escutcheon trim.
4) Can I order the Accentra 8809FL without a cylinder so I can use my own keyway?
Yes. Every finish and trim combination is offered two ways: with a conventional cylinder in the PARA-E1R keyway, or less cylinder. Order less cylinder when the building is keyed to an existing system and your locksmith is supplying the cylinder to match. Take the factory PARA-E1R cylinder when the opening is new and does not have to key into anything already on site.
5) Should I pick rose or escutcheon trim on the 8809 mortise lock?
Both are offered on the 8809FL with the Augusta lever. The escutcheon (CN) is a full heavy duty plate that covers more of the door face, resists damage and vandalism, and it is the version that meets Security Grade 1. The rose (R) is a compact round trim, which is what you want when you are matching existing round trim on the rest of the openings or covering less of a narrow face. For a school corridor or any high abuse area, the escutcheon is the one to spec.
6) Will the 8809FL latch into the strike that is already in my frame?
The 8809FL throws a 3/4 inch latchbolt at a 2-3/4 inch backset, which is standard mortise geometry, and it also carries a reinforced stainless steel deadbolt. Whether it drops into your existing frame depends on the strike: a mortise lock needs a full ANSI mortise strike with a cutout for both the latch and the deadbolt. If the frame currently holds a cylindrical lock strike, or a mortise strike with no deadbolt pocket, you will be replacing the strike and enlarging the frame prep.
7) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to the Accentra 8809FL classroom mortise lock?
The Corbin Russwin ML2003 is the nearest straight equivalent: a Grade 1 mortise classroom lockset in the ML2000 Series, listed for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Cal-Royal NM8070 is another Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors, with an auxiliary deadlatch. The Accentra 8809FL is Grade 1 with a classroom/office function and covers doors from 1-3/4 to 3-1/4 inch, so on thicker doors the 8809FL is the one that stays in range.
8) What mortise lock should I use if the room needs storeroom function instead of classroom?
The Cal-Royal NM8080 is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors with an interchangeable core option. The Accentra 8809FL is built for classroom/office function, where the outside lever is locked and unlocked by key; a storeroom lock keeps the outside lever locked at all times and is the right choice for a mechanical or supply room.
9) If the opening needs an access control system to lock and unlock it remotely, what replaces the 8809FL?
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 heavy duty wired electromechanical mortise lock with 12V/24V operation, and the Schlage L9092EU 03A is a heavy duty electric lock/unlock outside lever mortise lock, keyed outside, with request to exit, 12/24VDC, for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Accentra 8809FL is mechanical and needs no wiring or power transfer hinge.
10) For a behavioral health or patient room, is the 8809FL the right mortise lock?
For anti-ligature openings the TownSteel MRX-L-01 is a Grade 1 heavy duty stainless steel anti-ligature lever mortise lockset in passage function, the MRX-A-01 is the same passage function with 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 in satin stainless steel. The Accentra 8809FL is a Grade 1 keyed classroom/office lever lockset with heavy-duty vandal-resistant escutcheon trim, suited to classrooms, offices and administrative areas.
11) The door is only 1-5/8 inch thick - which of these mortise locks fits?
The Alarm Lock DL2700CR classroom electronic mortise lock is listed for doors 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch, as is the DL3500CR. The Accentra 8809FL covers 1-3/4 to 3-1/4 inch, so on a thin door the Alarm Lock range is the one in spec; on a thick door the 8809FL keeps going where locks fixed at 1-3/4 inch, such as the Cal-Royal NM8070, stop.
12) Which mortise locks carry a Grade 1 rating on a 3-hour fire rated door?
The Accentra 8809FL is ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 and UL/cUL listed for 3-hour fire rated doors. Among comparable mortise locks, the Schlage ENGAGE LEMD-GRW is Grade 1 with a 3-hour fire rating, and the Falcon MA101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise passage lock with a fire rating. The Schlage LE Series LEBMB-ADD also lists a 3-hour fire rating but is Grade 2.
13) Can I use a cylindrical lock like the Schlage PC10 where the 8809FL is specified?
No. The Schlage PC10 is a Grade 1 passage cylindrical lock, non-keyed with rose, for 1-3/4 inch doors, and it needs a bored cylindrical prep. The Accentra 8809FL is a mortise lock requiring a mortise pocket cut into the door edge with a 2-3/4 inch backset. The two door preparations are not interchangeable.
14) What is the difference between the Accentra 8809FL and Baldwin 6301 or 6310 mortise lock bodies?
The Baldwin 6301 is an entry/apartment mortise lock body on a 2-1/2 inch backset, offered knob by knob or lever by lever, for doors 1-3/4 inch and over; the Baldwin 6310 is entry/storeroom on the same 2-1/2 inch backset for doors 1-3/8 inch and over. The Accentra 8809FL uses a 2-3/4 inch backset with classroom/office function, so the mortise pocket location differs and the two are not swapped into the same prep.
15) What is the difference between the Accentra 8809FL and the Corbin Russwin ML2003 classroom mortise lock?
Both are Grade 1 keyed classroom mortise locks. The difference that decides most jobs is door thickness: the 8809FL covers 1-3/4 up to 3-1/4 inches, while the Corbin Russwin ML2003 is listed for 1-3/4 inch doors. If your leaves are thicker than standard, the Accentra is the one that goes on. The Cal-Royal NM8070 is another Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset, also at 1-3/4 inch. Keying is the other split, since the 8809FL ships in the PARA-E1R keyway or less cylinder, so an existing masterkey system usually points you to the less cylinder version whichever brand you pick.
16) Is the Accentra 8809FL an electronic lock, and what do I use if I need card or keypad access on a classroom door?
Purely mechanical. The 8809FL is key operated with a lever, no power, no wiring, no batteries, so it needs nothing from the electrician. For credential access on a classroom opening, the TownSteel FME-2000 is a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom mortise lockset with RFID for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Alarm Lock DL3500CR is a Grade 1 electronic classroom mortise lock with 300 user codes for 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors. Note that thickness range on the Alarm Lock, since it will not cover a thick door the way the mechanical 8809FL does.
17) Can I standardize a whole building on the 8800 Series and still get different lock functions per door?
That is what the series is built for. The 8800 Series offers functions across commercial and industrial applications, so corridor, office, storeroom and classroom doors can all carry the same lever design, trim style and finish while each gets the function it needs. The 8809FL is the classroom/office function within that family, and the Augusta lever plus one of ten finishes carries across the openings so the building reads as one hardware set.
18) I need an office or entrance mortise lock rather than a classroom lock - what is comparable?
The Cal-Royal NM8050 is a Grade 1 office/entrance mortise lockset with an auxiliary deadlatch for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 3850E is a Grade 1 office mortise lock with lever and escutcheon on a 2-3/4 inch backset, non-keyed, for doors 1-3/4 to 2-1/2 inch. The Accentra 8809FL carries a classroom/office function and is keyed with a single cylinder, so it covers the keyed side of that pair.
19) Can I use a passage mortise lock in place of the 8809FL on an interior door that does not need to lock?
For a door that never locks, the Falcon MA101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise passage lock with field reversible operation and a fire rating, the Schlage PM010 is a Grade 1 non-keyed passage latch mortise lock for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 3810S is a Grade 1 passage mortise lock with rose on a 2-3/4 inch backset. The Accentra 8809FL is keyed with a single cylinder and provides the classroom/office locking function that a passage latch does not.
20) Are the Emtek 3102 Memphis and similar mortise entrance locksets a substitute for the Accentra 8809FL?
No. The Emtek 3102 Memphis, 3104 Hamilton, 3106 Manhattan and 3019 Brisbane mortise entrance locksets are dummy function - they do not latch or lock. The Accentra 8809FL is a Grade 1 keyed classroom/office mortise lock with a lever. Use a dummy set only on an inactive leaf.
21) Is a mortise deadbolt like the Sargent 4874 an alternative to the 8809FL?
They do different jobs. The Sargent 4874 is a double cylinder mortise deadbolt on a 2-3/4 inch backset in the 4870 Series, and the Kaba Ilco 185 Series is a deadbolt-function mortise lock with no handing. Neither carries a latch or lever. The Accentra 8809FL is a lever lockset with a reinforced stainless steel deadbolt and 3/4 inch latchbolt throw in one lock body, so it latches the door and secures it from a single prep.
22) For a dormitory corridor door, what mortise lock should I look at instead of the classroom 8809FL?
The Sargent 7925 is a Grade 1 heavy duty corridor/dormitory exit function mortise lock in the 7900 Series with rose trim and a single cylinder deadbolt. The Accentra 8809FL is a Grade 1 classroom/office lock keyed with a single cylinder, offered with either rose or escutcheon trim.
23) Is a lockbody like the BEST 45H a drop-in replacement for the 8809FL?
The BEST 45H is a heavy duty mortise lock body in public entrance function with field reversible operation - a lock body on its own, with trim ordered separately. The Accentra 8809FL is a complete lockset with the Augusta lever, sold in rose or escutcheon trim and with a conventional PARA-E1R keyway cylinder or less cylinder. Both are field reversible for handing.
24) Are Marks USA 21AC and 22AC ornamental iron mortise locks an option for a commercial classroom door?
They are built for a different door. The Marks USA 21AC and 22AC are entrance double cylinder ornamental iron mortise locks with a round knob, listed for 1 inch door thickness. The Accentra 8809FL is a lever lockset for commercial doors 1-3/4 to 3-1/4 inch thick with classroom/office function.
25) What finishes does the Accentra 8809FL Augusta lever come in?
Ten finishes, and all ten are available with either rose or escutcheon trim: 605 Bright Brass, 606 Satin Brass, 612 Satin Bronze, 613E Dark Oxidized Satin Bronze equivalent, 619 Satin Nickel, 625 Bright Chrome, 626 Satin Chrome, 630 Satin Stainless Steel, BSP Black Suede Powder Coat and WSP White Suede Powder Coat. For a building already standardized on 626 satin chrome or 630 stainless, those are the two that match most commercial hardware in the field.
26) Is the Schlage L0170 dummy trim usable with an 8809FL opening?
The Schlage L0170 is Grade 1 heavy duty half dummy trim, a non-keyed mortise lever in dummy function for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Falcon MESC600DT is a fire rated dummy escutcheon lever trim for M9900 Series exit devices. Neither operates a latch. The Accentra 8809FL is a working keyed classroom/office lockset with the Augusta lever, so use dummy trim only on the inactive side of a pair.
