Accentra AUR-NTM618-NR Grade 1 nexTouch Generation 3 Mortise Lock with Pushbutton Keypad, Deadbolt With Cylinder Override - Conventional Cylinder, PARA Keyway, Augusta Lever, R Rose

The ACCENTRA (formerly Yale Commercial) AUR-NTM618-NR Grade 1 nexTouch Generation 3 Mortise Lock delivers high-security commercial access control with an integrated pushbutton keypad and deadbolt protection. Built to heavy-duty ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 standards, this lock combines tactile keypad operation, key override, and single-motion anti-panic egress—making it ideal for high-traffic facilities, offices, multi-family units, and commercial doors.

Product Overview

The nexTouch NTM618-NR model features a tactile pushbutton keypad, a deadbolt with cylinder override, and a standalone non-radio (NR) module. It comes configured with the popular Augusta (AUR) lever, standard R Rose trim, and a conventional cylinder with a PARA keyway.

Designed for modularity and durability, the nexTouch Generation 3 series allows easy access control management via user PIN codes without requiring key distribution. If system requirements expand, the lock's modular design enables future technology upgrades (such as wireless or Data-on-Card modules).

Key Features

  • ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 Certified: Heavy-duty, commercial-grade construction engineered to withstand extreme use, physical impact, and high traffic.

  • Tactile Pushbutton Keypad: Offers clear physical button feedback, compliant with ADA requirements and ideal for gloved or high-use environments.

  • Deadbolt Security & Anti-Panic Egress: Features an integrated deadbolt for high security. Turning the inside lever automatically retracts both the latchbolt and deadbolt simultaneously for fast, safe emergency exit.

  • Mechanical Cylinder Override: Includes a conventional 6-pin cylinder with a PARA keyway for physical key override when needed.

  • Flexible Access Management: Supports up to 500 unique PIN codes in standalone operation for easy user management.

  • 9V Battery Backup Terminal: Prevents lockout during low or dead battery situations via external contact points on the keypad.

  • Modular Upgradeability: The non-radio (NR) unit can be field-upgraded with plug-and-play radio modules (e.g., Zigbee, Z-Wave, or Data-on-Card) as facility needs grow.

  • Weather-Resistant: Built with a protective gasket seal designed for reliable performance in indoor or outdoor perimeter applications.

Accentra AUR-NTM618-NR 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Accentra nexTouch NTM618 mortise lock fit a 1-3/4 inch door with a 2-3/4 inch backset prep?
Yes. The nexTouch NTM618 mortise lock is built for 1-3/4 inch doors as standard with a 2-3/4 inch backset, which is the normal commercial mortise prep. Adapters are available for thicker doors. Handing is field reversible for LH, LHR, RH and RHR openings, so you order one part regardless of swing.
2) Can I use this keypad mortise lock on a 3-hour fire rated opening?
Yes. The nexTouch Generation 3 NTM618 mortise lock is UL/cUL 3-hour fire rated and certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.13, Series 1000, Grade 1. Turning the inside lever retracts the latchbolt and deadbolt together in one motion, which is what a rated egress door needs.
3) Will the NTM618 deadbolt reach my existing mortise strike?
The lock throws a 1 inch deadbolt and a 3/4 inch stainless steel latchbolt. That is standard for a commercial mortise lock body, so an existing ANSI mortise strike with a deadbolt cutout will accept it; a strike cut only for a latch will not take the 1 inch deadbolt and needs to be replaced or extended.
4) Does the NR version of the nexTouch work on a network, or is it standalone only?
The NR suffix means no radio. Out of the box it runs standalone off the keypad, holding up to 500 PIN codes with no wiring and no head-end software. If the facility later goes to networked access control, the module is plug-and-play upgradeable with a radio or Data-on-Card module, so you are not replacing the lock body or trim. If you need wireless from day one, order a radio-equipped nexTouch instead.
5) What keyway and cylinder comes with the AUR-NTM618-NR, and can I key it into my existing system?
It ships with a conventional 6-pin mortise cylinder in the PARA keyway for mechanical key override. PARA is an Accentra/Yale conventional keyway, so it keys into an existing PARA system directly. If your building is on a different keyway or on small format interchangeable core, you will need to swap in a mortise cylinder in your keyway rather than use the furnished one.
6) My door is 1-5/8 inch thick - will the AUR-NTM618-NR work, or is there a better option?
The AUR-NTM618-NR is built around a 1-3/4 inch door as standard, with adapters for thicker doors. For a thinner leaf, the Alarm Lock Trilogy electronic mortise locks cover a 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch door thickness range - the DL4500 Series Grade 1 electronic mortise deadbolt with 2,000 user codes and privacy keypad is the closest in function, since it is also a keypad deadbolt.
7) What is the closest equivalent to the Accentra AUR-NTM618-NR standalone keypad mortise lock from another manufacturer?
The Schlage CO-100-MS-40-KP is the nearest match in concept: a standalone electronic mortise lock with a keypad reader, Grade 1, heavy duty, for 1-3/4 inch doors. The difference is function - the Schlage CO-100 in that configuration is a privacy function, while the AUR-NTM618-NR is a deadbolt-with-cylinder-override lock whose inside lever retracts latchbolt and deadbolt together. Dormakaba's E-Plex E5086 is another Grade 1 electronic pushbutton mortise option, with card credentials alongside the pushbuttons.
8) I need a keypad mortise lock with classroom function instead of a deadbolt - what should I order?
The AUR-NTM618-NR is built as a deadbolt lock with cylinder override, not a classroom function. For classroom, Alarm Lock's Trilogy DL3500CR is a Grade 1 electronic mortise lock with classroom function and 300 user codes, and the DL2700CR is a Grade 1 classroom-function Trilogy T2 with a weatherproof design. TownSteel's FME-2000 is a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom mortise lockset using RFID credentials rather than a keypad.
9) The AUR-NTM618-NR is standalone with no radio - what if I need a networked or credential-reading lock now?
The AUR-NTM618-NR ships as a non-radio keypad unit that accepts plug-and-play radio modules later. If the system needs to be networked out of the box, the Alarm Lock DL1300NW Trilogy Networx is a wireless electronic mortise lock with keypad, and the Schlage LEMD-GRW is a Grade 1 ENGAGE Series wireless mortise lock with a 125 kHz proximity reader and mobile-enabled deadbolt. For RFID plus mobile with lockdown, TownSteel's FME-4000 is a Grade 1 electronic mortise lockset with RFID and classroom lockdown.
10) How does the Schlage LE Series mobile-enabled mortise lock compare with the Accentra AUR-NTM618-NR?
Both use pushbuttons on the outside trim, but the Schlage LEBMB-ADD is a Grade 2 mobile-enabled mortise lock with push button and LED covering privacy, office and apartment functions, with a 3 hour fire rating. The AUR-NTM618-NR is ANSI/BHMA A156.13 Series 1000 Grade 1, UL/cUL 3-hour fire rated, and is a deadbolt function with conventional PARA keyway cylinder override. If the spec calls for Grade 1 on the opening, the Accentra meets it; the Schlage LEMD-GRW is the Grade 1 option in that family.
11) What is the alternative to the AUR-NTM618-NR for an aluminum storefront or glass door?
The AUR-NTM618-NR is a sectional mortise lock sized for a 1-3/4 inch door with 2-3/4 inch backset, which does not suit a narrow aluminum stile. For aluminum stile doors, the Kaba Ilco 185 Series is an ANSI Grade 1 mortise deadbolt with no handing, and the Ilco BR Series is a glass door bottom rail lock taking a 1-5/32 inch mortise cylinder. The Alarm Lock DL1300NW is the keypad route for aluminum, built for Adams Rite deadlatches.
12) What happens if the batteries die on this keypad lock?
Power is 4 AA alkaline batteries, included. On the outside of the keypad there are contact points for a 9V battery jump, so a dead pack does not lock anyone out of the building. The mechanical key override through the PARA cylinder is the second way in.
13) Can this electronic mortise lock go on an exterior perimeter door?
Yes. The nexTouch NTM618 has a protective gasket seal for indoor or outdoor perimeter use and an operating range of -40 F to 140 F (-40 C to 60 C), so it holds up in unconditioned and exposed openings.
14) What is the difference between the AUR-NTM618-NR and a card reader electronic mortise lock?
The NTM618 is PIN only in standalone form, 500 codes, no credentials to issue or replace, which suits multi-family and office doors where you just hand out a code. If you need cards or mobile credentials, ZenSupply carries RFID mortise locks such as the TownSteel FME-2000 Series Grade 1 classroom lock and the Dormakaba Saffire LX-I-M002 with RFID and BLE mobile access. The Dormakaba E-Plex 5X86 is a Grade 1 pushbutton-plus-card option if you want both.
15) I need a wired electrified mortise lock tied to my access control panel, not a battery keypad. What should I look at instead?
The nexTouch NTM618-NR is battery powered and standalone, so it will not take a signal from an access panel. For wired control, ZenSupply carries the BEST 45HW wired electromechanical mortise lock at 12V/24V, the Command Access ML190 motorized mortise with field selectable EL/EU at 24VDC, and the Schlage L9092EU electric unlock mortise with request-to-exit at 12/24VDC.
16) Is there a battery-free or hardwired alternative to the AUR-NTM618-NR keypad mortise lock?
The AUR-NTM618-NR runs on four AA batteries with a 9V jump terminal. If you would rather not maintain batteries, the Dormakaba PowerPlex P2066 Series mortise lock is a self-powered pushbutton approach, and for a wired installation the BEST 45HW is a heavy duty wired electromechanical mortise lock with 12V/24V operation. Command Access ML190 is a heavy-duty motorized mortise lock with field selectable EL/EU operation on 24VDC, though it is keyed storeroom function rather than keypad.
17) Can I use the Dormakaba E-Plex 2066 or Codelocks CL2255 in place of the AUR-NTM618-NR?
Not as a direct swap. The Dormakaba E-Plex 2066 is an electronic pushbutton keyless mortise lock configured for wide stile aluminum doors, so the prep differs from the AUR-NTM618-NR, which is a sectional mortise lock for a 1-3/4 inch door with 2-3/4 inch backset. The Codelocks CL2255 is a medium duty electronic tubular mortise latch in brushed steel - latch only, no deadbolt - against the Grade 1 heavy-duty deadbolt-with-override build of the Accentra.
18) If I only need a mechanical keyed mortise lock on this opening and not a keypad, what matches the same grade?
The AUR-NTM618-NR is an electronic keypad lock. For a strictly mechanical Grade 1 mortise lockset on a 1-3/4 inch door, Cal-Royal's NM8080 is a heavy duty Grade 1 storeroom lockset with an interchangeable core option, NM8050 is Grade 1 office/entrance with an auxiliary deadlatch, and the Corbin Russwin ML2003 is a Grade 1 mortise classroom lockset. For a mechanical deadbolt alone, the Sargent 4874 is a double cylinder mortise deadbolt with a 2-3/4 inch backset, the same backset the Accentra uses.
19) We are standardizing a behavioral health wing - is the AUR-NTM618-NR the right mortise lock there?
The AUR-NTM618-NR carries an Augusta lever and R rose, which is standard commercial trim rather than ligature-resistant trim. For patient areas, TownSteel's MRX-L-01 is a Grade 1 anti-ligature mortise lockset built for behavioral healthcare, and the MRX-A-01 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage mortise lockset with ligature-resistant arch trim. The Marks USA 5PDN is a Grade 1 hospital passage mortise push/pull paddleset, ligature resistant and ADA compliant in satin stainless steel.
20) Will a Hager 3800 Series or Schlage PM010 mortise lock substitute for the AUR-NTM618-NR?
No - those are non-keyed mechanical locks. The Hager 3810S is a Grade 1 passage mortise lock with rose and 2-3/4 inch backset, the 3850E is an office function with lever and escutcheon, non-keyed, and the Schlage PM010 is a Grade 1 non-keyed passage latch mortise lock for 1-3/4 inch doors. None of them provide the PIN code access, 500-user standalone credential management, or deadbolt with key override that the AUR-NTM618-NR provides.
21) Which finishes does the Accentra nexTouch NTM618 mortise lock come in?
Four: 605 Bright Brass, 613E Dark Oxidized Satin Bronze, 626 Satin Chrome, and BSP Black Suede Powder Coat. For a property standardizing a building, 626 satin chrome is the one that matches most existing commercial lever trim; BSP is the choice where the rest of the openings are black.
22) Is the Augusta lever and R rose trim a sectional or escutcheon style?
The AUR-NTM618-NR is a sectional electronic mortise lock: Augusta (AU) lever on a standard round R rose rather than a full-length escutcheon plate. If the existing doors have escutcheon trim, the rose will leave the old plate footprint exposed, so plan on refinishing or matching plates across the opening.
