Accentra AUR-8840FL-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does storeroom function mean on the 8840FL, and is it right for a supply or equipment room?
Storeroom function keeps the outside lever locked at all times. Entry from outside is by key only, and the inside lever always retracts the latch for free egress. Nobody can leave it unlocked by accident, which is why it is the standard pick for supply closets, electrical and IT rooms, and mechanical spaces. If you need a room that staff can leave unlocked during the day, storeroom is the wrong function and you want an office or entrance function instead.
2) Do I have to order the Accentra 8840FL handed?
No. Handing is field adjustable on the 8840FL, with a reversible latchbolt, so one lock covers left or right hand openings. For a property manager buying spares across a building that means a single part number on the shelf instead of two.
3) Can I use the Accentra 8840FL on a 3-hour fire rated door?
Yes. The 8800 Series mortise lock is UL/cUL listed for 3-hour fire rated doors. It is also certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.13, Series 1000, Operational Grade 1, and the 8800FL with the CN escutcheon meets Security Grade 1 as well. That combination is what most institutional specs call for on a rated stair or corridor opening.
4) What is the difference between the CN escutcheon and the rose trim on the 8840FL?
Both are offered on the 8840FL Augusta lever, in 626 satin chrome. The CN escutcheon is a heavy-duty plate that resists damage and vandalism, and it is the version certified to Security Grade 1, so it is the choice for high-abuse openings. The R rose is a compact trim for a cleaner look on lower-traffic doors. If your spec calls for Security Grade 1, order the escutcheon.
5) Should I order the 8840FL with a cylinder or less cylinder?
Both ways are available. Ordering with the conventional cylinder in the PARA-E1R keyway gets you a keyed, ready-to-hang lock and is the simple route for a one-off replacement. Less cylinder is the one locksmiths and facility key shops want, so the lock can take a cylinder in an existing master key system. It is a single cylinder function, so one cylinder is all it needs.
6) What is another Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock if the Accentra 8840FL Augusta lever does not match the rest of my doors?
The Cal-Royal NM8080 is a heavy duty Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset and is the closest straight functional equivalent to the Accentra 8840FL, which is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock with the Augusta lever. The NM8080 is listed for 1-3/4 inch doors and offers an interchangeable core option, while the 8840FL covers door thickness from 1-3/4 inch to 3-1/4 inch and comes with a conventional cylinder in the PARA-E1R keyway or less cylinder. Choose on keying program: if the building is already on interchangeable cores, the NM8080 fits that program; if you are keying to a conventional PARA-E1R system, the 8840FL does.
7) I need classroom function instead of storeroom on a mortise lock. What should I order?
The Accentra 8840FL is storeroom function, which means the outside lever is always locked and key retracts the latch, so it will not give you classroom operation. For classroom function in a Grade 1 mortise lockset, the Corbin Russwin ML2003 is a Grade 1 mortise classroom lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal NM8070 is a heavy duty Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch, also listed for 1-3/4 inch doors. If you need classroom security with a visual indicator, the Marks USA LA318GJ is a Grade 1 classroom security indicator mortise lockset with ANSI strike and steel escutcheon.
8) Does a Baldwin 6310 mortise lock drop into the same prep as the Accentra 8840FL?
No. The Baldwin 6310 entry/storeroom mortise lock body uses a 2-1/2 inch backset, while the Accentra 8840FL uses a standard 2-3/4 inch backset, so the cylinder and spindle holes land in different places and the door would need re-prepping. The Baldwin 6310 is offered knob by knob, with the 6310190RRLS as a right hand reverse lever by lever version, both for doors 1-3/8 inch and over; the 8840FL is a lever lockset with field adjustable handing.
9) I need an electrified storeroom mortise lock for access control. What matches the 8840FL function?
The Accentra 8840FL is a mechanical storeroom lock with no electrical option. Command Access ML190 series is a heavy-duty motorized mortise lock in storeroom function with field selectable fail safe or fail secure operation on 24VDC, which is the closest electrified match to the 8840FL's function. The Schlage L9092EU with 03A trim is a heavy duty electric lock/unlock outside lever mortise lock, keyed outside, with request to exit on 12/24VDC for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the BEST 45HW is a heavy duty wired electromechanical mortise lock running 12V or 24V.
10) Does the Accentra 8840FL have a deadbolt as well as a latch?
Yes, there is a reinforced stainless steel deadbolt in the lock body alongside the latchbolt, and the install calls for aligning both when you set the case. Practically, that means the mortise pocket and frame strike have to be prepped for the deadbolt too, so it is not a drop-in for a latch-only case.
11) What are the alternatives to the Accentra 8840FL for a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock?
Two close peers we carry: the Cal-Royal NM8080 is a heavy duty Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset with an interchangeable core option, listed for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Baldwin 6310 is an entrance/storeroom mortise body on a 2-1/2 inch backset for 1-3/8 inch and over doors, so it is a different door prep from the 8840FL's 2-3/4 inch backset. If you need the same storeroom function but electrified, the Command Access ML190 Series is a motorized storeroom mortise lock with field selectable EL/EU on 24VDC.
12) Is the Accentra 8840FL electronic or does it need any power or wiring?
Purely mechanical. The 8840FL is a keyed lever mortise lock with no electronics and no wiring, so it keeps working when the power drops. If you need credential access on the same opening, look at an electrified mortise lock such as the BEST 45HW wired electromechanical mortise lock, which runs 12V or 24V.
13) What prep and templates do I need before installing an 8800 Series mortise lock?
A routed mortise cavity plus the drilled trim and cylinder holes, laid out from the manufacturer's templates, then the case fastened to the torque spec with the latchbolt and deadbolt lined up to the frame strike. Set the reversible latch for the door's hand before you close it up. This is a mortise, not a cylindrical lock, so if the door currently carries a bored 2-1/8 inch cylindrical lock the door has to be modified or replaced.
14) What mortise lock do I use for a dormitory or corridor door instead of a storeroom lock?
Storeroom function on the Accentra 8840FL keeps the outside lever locked at all times, which is not what a dormitory corridor door usually calls for. The Sargent 7925 is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise lock with dormitory exit function, rose trim, and a single cylinder deadbolt, which gives the occupant deadbolt control from inside. Also relevant for entrance/office doors is the Cal-Royal NM8050, a heavy duty Grade 1 office/entrance mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch for 1-3/4 inch doors.
15) Is there a non-keyed mortise lock with the same look for the doors that do not need to lock?
The Accentra 8840FL is keyed with a single cylinder, so for openings that only need to latch you want a passage function instead. The Hager 3810E is a Grade 1 passage mortise lock with escutcheon and a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Hager 3810S is the same passage lock with a rose, both for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/2 inch doors. That escutcheon-versus-rose choice mirrors the 8840FL, which comes with either a CN escutcheon or a rose. The Falcon MA101 is another Grade 1 heavy duty mortise passage lock and is fire rated and field reversible.
16) Can I use an electronic mortise lock instead of the Accentra 8840FL on the same opening?
The 8840FL is a mechanical, non-electronic keyed mortise lock, so swapping to an electronic lock changes the door prep and adds a power or battery requirement. Grade 1 electronic mortise alternatives include the Dormakaba E-Plex E5086 pushbutton and card entry/egress mortise lock, the Schlage ENGAGE LEMD-GRW wireless mortise lock with a 125kHz proximity reader and a 3 hour fire rating, and the TownSteel FME-2000 RFID mortise lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors. Note the TownSteel and Schlage units listed are classroom and deadbolt configurations rather than storeroom, so confirm the function matches before you substitute.
17) I only need the mortise lock body, not a complete lockset with lever and trim. What is the option?
The Accentra 8840FL ships as a complete storeroom lockset with the Augusta lever and either escutcheon or rose trim. If you already have trim on the door and need the body alone, the BEST 45H series heavy duty mortise lock body is sold as a lock body with field reversible operation in public entrance function, and the BEST 45HCA is a heavy duty mortise lockbody with intruder function. Verify the existing trim matches the body's spindle and cylinder arrangement before ordering a body by itself.
18) For a behavioral health or ligature-resistant opening, is the 8840FL suitable or do I need a different mortise lockset?
The Accentra 8840FL uses a standard Augusta lever with heavy-duty escutcheon trim and is not an anti-ligature design. For those openings, TownSteel offers the MRX-L-01, a Grade 1 heavy duty stainless steel anti-ligature lever mortise lockset in passage function for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the MRX-A-01 with ligature resistant arch trim. The Marks USA 5PDN is a Grade 1 ligature resistant, ADA compliant hospital passage mortise push/pull paddleset in satin stainless steel. All three listed are passage function, so they latch without locking.
19) Will a mortise deadbolt work in place of the Accentra 8840FL storeroom lock?
No. The Accentra 8840FL is a keyed storeroom lockset with a lever and a latchbolt, so it both latches the door and secures it. A mortise deadbolt such as the Sargent 4874 double cylinder mortise deadbolt, which shares the 2-3/4 inch backset, has no latch or lever and requires separate hardware to hold the door closed. The Kaba Ilco 185 series is likewise a deadbolt function mortise lock. Use those only as supplemental security alongside a latching device, not as a substitute for a storeroom lockset.
20) Can I substitute a cylindrical lock for the Accentra 8840FL mortise lock?
Not without changing the door prep. The Accentra 8840FL is a mortise lock requiring a routed mortise cavity in the door edge, while a cylindrical lock such as the Schlage PC10 Grade 1 passage cylindrical lock for 1-3/4 inch doors uses a bored cross-bore prep. A mortised door can generally be converted to cylindrical only with a filler plate or door replacement. If the door is already mortise prepped, stay with a mortise body.
21) I need to see at a glance whether the door is locked. Does the 8800 Series offer that?
Status indicator options are offered in the 8800 Series to show locked or unlocked state on the door. That is a common ask on school and clinic openings. If you want indication on a keyed lock from another line, the Marks USA LA318GJ is a Grade 1 classroom security indicator mortise lockset with an ANSI strike and steel escutcheon measuring 8-1/2 x 2-3/4 x 7/16 inches.
22) Which lever style comes on the Accentra 8840FL, and will it match other doors in the building?
It ships with the Augusta lever in 626 satin chrome. 626 is the most common commercial finish, so it generally sits well next to existing satin chrome closers, exit devices and hinges. If your other openings are 8800 Series with a different lever design, the lever shape will differ even though the lock body and door prep are the same.
23) What is the difference between the Accentra 8840FL and an Emtek mortise entrance lockset?
They serve different buildings. The Accentra 8840FL is an ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 commercial storeroom mortise lock that is UL/cUL listed for 3-hour fire rated doors. The Emtek mortise entrance locksets such as the 3102 Memphis, 3104 Hamilton, 3106 Manhattan, and 3019 Brisbane brass are dummy function, meaning they are non-operating decorative trim for inactive leaves. They will not latch or lock a door and are not a replacement for a keyed storeroom lock.
24) I need a matching dummy or inactive-leaf trim to go with Grade 1 mortise levers. What are my options?
The Accentra 8840FL is a working keyed storeroom lockset and is not made as a dummy. For an inactive leaf alongside Grade 1 mortise hardware, the Schlage L0170 is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise non-keyed half dummy lever trim for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Falcon MESC600DT is a fire rated dummy escutcheon lever trim intended for M9900 series exit devices. Match the lever style and finish to the working doors when you order.
