Adams Rite 4513-15-IB – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Adams Rite 4513 deadlatch fit my narrow stile aluminum storefront door?
That's exactly what the 4513 is built into. It's a mortise deadlatch body for narrow stile aluminum doors, and it's also offered for hollow metal and wood doors. Door thickness is the hard limit: 1-3/4 inches. The other thing to settle before you order is backset, since the lock body is made in 7/8, 31/32, 1-1/8 and 1-1/2 inch backsets and that dimension has to match the cylinder hole location in your stile.
2) How do I measure the backset for an Adams Rite 4513 deadlatch?
Measure from the edge of the door (the latch face) to the centerline of the cylinder hole in the stile. That number has to be one of the four the 4513 is built in: 7/8, 31/32, 1-1/8 or 1-1/2 inches. Wrong backset and the cylinder cam won't line up with the lock body, no matter how good the rest of the prep is. On an existing door with a lock already in it, pull the old cylinder and measure the hole you have rather than guessing from the door width.
3) Do I have to specify handing when ordering an Adams Rite 4513 deadlatch?
Yes, handing matters on the 4513. It's ordered either LH or RHR, or RH or LHR, so you need to know which way the door swings and which side it's hinged before you place the order. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your left and it swings away from you, that's left hand. Each backset (7/8, 31/32, 1-1/8, 1-1/2 inch) comes in both hands.
4) What strike do I need with an Adams Rite 4513 deadlatch?
The 4902-01 strike is the one called out for the 4513, installed on the jamb and aligned to both the latchbolt and the auxiliary deadlocking bolt. That alignment is the part people get wrong: with only a 1/2 inch throw, the strike lip has to sit close and square or the latch won't seat. If you're putting the opening on access control, the 4513 also works with Adams Rite electric strikes.
5) What is the difference between the Adams Rite 4513 deadlatch and the BEST 6KL deadlocking latch?
Both are deadlocking latches, but they are built to different grades and different door prep. The Adams Rite 4513 is a Grade 1 standard duty deadlatch lock body with a 1/2 inch latch throw, made for 1-3/4 inch doors and offered in 7/8 inch, 31/32 inch, 1-1/8 inch and 1-1/2 inch backsets, so it drops into narrow stile aluminum door prep. The BEST 6KL is a Grade 2 deadlocking latch of steel construction in the 6K Series. If the opening is prepped for an Adams Rite narrow stile mortise pocket, the 4513 is the part that matches that prep; the 6KL belongs to the BEST 6K line.
6) Can I order the BEST 6KL as a drop-in replacement for an Adams Rite 4513 already in an aluminum storefront door?
Treat them as different parts rather than a swap. The 4513 lock body is cut for a narrow stile mortise pocket with a 1 inch by 6-7/8 inch faceplate, takes an Adams Rite MS cam mortise cylinder that is ordered separately, and is handed left or right for a 1-3/4 inch door. The BEST 6KL is a Grade 2 deadlocking latch in the BEST 6K Series and does not carry those Adams Rite prep dimensions, so replacing a 4513 with it means changing the door prep and the cylinder. For an existing 4513 pocket, order the 4513 in the backset that matches what came out.
7) Is the Adams Rite 4513 deadlatch a complete lock, or just the lock body?
It's the lock body only. You get the mortise deadlatch mechanism with its mounting screws; the mortise cylinder and the 4902-01 strike are separate. If you're pricing a full opening, the line items are the 4513 in your backset and hand, an Adams Rite MS cam mortise cylinder, the strike, and whatever pull or push bar the door already has.
8) What is bolt holdback on a deadlatch and when would I use it?
Bolt holdback lets you hold the latchbolt retracted so the door swings free, which is how you run a storefront or lobby unlocked during business hours and then secure it after. On the 4513 you retract the bolt and use a reverse key turn to set it. That's the difference between this and a plain deadlatch: retail, banks, clinics and anywhere the door has to be push-pull open during the day and latched at night.
9) Will a 1/2 inch throw deadlatch hold up on a high-traffic commercial entrance?
The 4513 is Grade 1 rated for commercial use, with all-metal construction and hardened steel internals, so the duty level is there for a main entrance. The 1/2 inch latchbolt throw is normal for a narrow stile mortise deadlatch, and an auxiliary deadlocking bolt rides alongside it to block loiding (carding the latch open with a shim). Note it's the standard duty version of the 4510 family.
10) Can I standardize a whole building's entrances on the Adams Rite 4513?
Across openings that are 1-3/4 inch thick, yes, and it's a common approach for offices, schools, healthcare, multi-tenant residential and municipal buildings. The catch is that backset and handing vary per door, so you're standardizing on the 4513 lock body and its 4902-01 strike, not on a single part number. Survey each stile for backset (7/8, 31/32, 1-1/8, 1-1/2 inch) and note the hand. Cylinders are ordered separately, which is what lets you key the whole set alike.
