Alarm Lock PDL8200 US26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Alarm Lock PDL8200 fit a standard 1-3/4 inch commercial door?
Yes. The PDL8200 covers a door thickness range of 1-5/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch, so a standard 1-3/4 inch commercial door sits in the middle of that range. It is a cylindrical lock, not a mortise lock, so the door needs a standard 161 style cross bore prep rather than a mortise pocket. Standard backset is 2-3/4 inch, and a 2-3/8 inch backset is also available.
2) Is the PDL8200 handed, and can it go on both a left and right hand door?
It is non-handed. The PDL8200 ships ready for either hand and the latchbolt is reversible in the field, so one part number covers both swings. That matters for a property manager buying several at once: you do not have to survey every opening for handing first.
3) Will the PDL8200 latch into the strike already in my frame?
Two strikes come in the box: a 1-1/8 x 2-3/4 inch T strike and a 1-1/4 x 4-7/8 inch ASA strike. The latchbolt has a 1/2 inch throw. If the frame is prepped for a standard ANSI/ASA cutout, use the included ASA strike; a wood frame with a T strike mortise takes the other one. No separate strike purchase is needed either way.
4) Which cylinder option of the PDL8200 do I order to match my existing key system?
Four cylinder preps are offered. Standard comes with a 6 pin solid brass conventional cylinder in SC1 keyway, and it also accepts 6 and 7 pin cores from Best, Falcon, Arrow, KSP, Medeco Keymark and Kaba Peaks. If your building is on large format IC, order IC-C for Corbin Russwin 6-pin LFIC prep or IC-R for Sargent LFIC prep. IC is small format SFIC prep and IC-S is Schlage FSIC prep. All the IC versions ship less core, so you supply and key your own cores.
5) Will the PDL8200 key override work with my Schlage or Sargent cylinders?
The standard conventional cylinder version accepts Schlage, Corbin-Russwin CL, Sargent 480 series, ASSA 65-611 and Lori cylinders using the HW620 tailpiece, which is supplied with the lock. So if you are standardizing key override across a property already on one of those systems, you can pull your own cylinder in without ordering extra parts.
6) What credentials does the PDL8200 read, and how many users can it hold?
It holds up to 5,000 users. Each can be a 3 to 6 digit PIN, an HID iClass card, or both. The reader is a 13.56 MHz iClass smart card proximity reader supporting 26 to 37 bit formats, so existing iClass badges in that bit range work. Note it reads 13.56 MHz iClass, not 125 kHz prox cards.
7) Do I have to walk to every door to program the PDL8200?
No, that is the point of the Networx version. The PDL8200 connects over 802.11 wireless or ethernet, so user codes, card credentials, and audit trail pulls happen from the PC across the network. Global lockdown or unlock can be pushed system wide in under 10 seconds, and communication is protected with 128-bit AES encryption. Basic functions can still be programmed at the 12 button all metal keypad if the network is down.
8) How often will I have to change batteries on the PDL8200, and does it need wiring to the door?
It runs on 4 C-cell batteries with a stated 5 year battery life, and the batteries are included. There is no power transfer hinge, no electric strike, and no low voltage run to the door, so retrofitting into an existing opening is a drill-and-mount job rather than an electrical one. If you want a hardwired electrified lock instead, the BEST 45HW Series is a wired electromechanical mortise lock running 12V or 24V.
9) My doors are prepped for a mortise lock. Is there a networked electronic option instead of the PDL8200?
The PDL8200 is a cylindrical lock and will not drop into a mortise pocket. For a mortise prep with electronic credentials, the Schlage Electronics LEMD-GRW is a Grade 1 ENGAGE Series wireless mortise lock with a 125 kHz proximity reader and a 3 hour fire rating, and the TownSteel FME-2000 Series is a Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset with RFID for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Dormakaba LX-I-M002 Saffire is another RFID mortise option, BHMA Grade 2.
10) What is the closest wireless networked alternative to the Alarm Lock PDL8200 with a proximity reader?
The Schlage Electronics LEMD-GRW is the nearest wireless credential-reading peer. It is an ENGAGE Series Grade 1 wireless mortise lock with a 125kHz proximity reader, mobile enabled, with a deadbolt and LED and Greenwich trim, right hand, and carries a 3 hour fire rating. The difference that decides the job is the credential: the PDL8200 reads 13.56 MHz HID iClass smart cards and supports 3-6 digit PINs on an all metal 12 button keypad, while the LEMD-GRW reads 125kHz proximity. If the facility already issues iClass cards, the PDL8200 matches the credential stock; if the site is on 125kHz fobs, the Schlage reads them natively. The LEMD-GRW is also handed right hand, where the PDL8200 is non-handed.
11) If I do not need the wireless network and just want a keypad lock on the door, what should I use instead of the PDL8200?
For a standalone keypad opening, look at the BEST 45HZ EZ Series electronic keypad mortise lock with key override, or the Schlage CO-100 standalone electronic mortise lock in privacy function with a keypad reader, which is Grade 1 heavy duty for 1-3/4 inch doors. Both are programmed at the door rather than over a network. The PDL8200 also works standalone with Trilogy lock functionality and can be programmed for basic functions through its keypad, so the network is an added capability rather than a requirement; what you give up by dropping to the standalone peers is the 802.11 or ethernet connectivity, wireless audit trail retrieval, and system-wide lockdown.
12) My door is 1-3/4 inch and thicker than 1-7/8 inch in places. Is the PDL8200 still the right lock?
The PDL8200 fits doors from 1-5/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch. For openings outside that band, the Hager 3810E and 3810S 3800 Series Grade 1 passage mortise locks cover 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/2 inch with a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Schlage L9092EU 03A electric lock/unlock mortise lock is a heavy duty 1-3/4 inch corridor-function unit. Note those are mortise-prepped bodies while the PDL8200 is a cylindrical lock on a 2-3/4 inch backset, so the door prep is not the same.
13) I have hardwired power at the door. Is there a wired electric lock instead of the battery-powered PDL8200?
Yes. The BEST 45HW Series is a wired electromechanical mortise lock with 12V/24V operation, heavy duty, and the Command Access ML190 Series is a motorized mortise lock with field selectable fail safe / fail secure operation on 24VDC in storeroom function, heavy-duty. The Schlage L9092EU 03A is another wired option, electric lock/unlock outside lever with request to exit and 12/24VDC, keyed outside. The PDL8200 runs on 4 C-cell batteries rated at 5 year life, so it needs no power run to the door at all - which is the usual reason to choose it over these.
14) What other RFID card mortise locks compete with the PDL8200 for a school or dorm?
The TownSteel FME-2000 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom mortise lockset with RFID technology for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the FME-4000 Series is the electronic intruder classroom version, also Grade 1 heavy duty RFID on 1-3/4 inch doors. Dormakaba's LX-I-M002 Saffire is an electronic RFID mortise lockset with BLE mobile access at BHMA Grade 2. Against these, the PDL8200 is a Grade 1 cylindrical lock reading 13.56 MHz HID iClass cards with 5,000 users and audit trail, and it adds 802.11 or ethernet networking for global lockdown or unlock across the system - the TownSteel FME-4000 approaches the same lockdown need mechanically through its intruder function at the door.
15) Can the PDL8200 go on an exterior door?
Yes. It is built weatherproof and rated for commercial use, so it is suited to exterior perimeter doors as well as interior ones. Grade 1 construction covers high traffic entrances in offices, schools, healthcare, government buildings, and multi-tenant properties.
16) Do I need to specify keying when I order the PDL8200?
Yes, keying is a required selection. You choose keyed different, keyed alike, or key code. If you pick key code, enter the code so the cylinders are cut to your existing system. Keyed alike is the usual choice when a property manager wants one override key for a group of doors. The IC prep versions ship less core, so the keying choice applies to the conventional cylinder models.
17) Should I use the PDL8200 or a standalone keypad lock with no network?
Pick the PDL8200 when you need central management: 5,000 users, wireless audit trail retrieval, and system wide lockdown from the PC. If you have a handful of doors and nobody managing a system, a standalone lock is simpler. The BEST 45HZ EZ Series is an electronic keypad mortise lock with key override, and the Dormakaba E-Plex 2066 is an electronic pushbutton keyless mortise lock, both without the network layer. Note that both of those are mortise locks, so they need a mortise pocket in the door rather than the cylindrical prep the PDL8200 uses.
18) Is the Dormakaba E-Plex E5086 a substitute for the PDL8200?
They overlap but they are not the same animal. The E-Plex E5086 is a Grade 1 entry/egress electronic pushbutton and card lock in a back-to-back mortise configuration, meaning credential readers on both sides of the opening. The PDL8200 is a cylindrical lock with a single iClass reader and 12 button metal keypad on the outside, non-handed, on a 2-3/4 inch backset. Choose the E5086 when you need to control and audit both directions of travel; choose the PDL8200 when one-side control is enough and you want the 802.11 or ethernet networked programming and audit retrieval.
19) If the opening only needs a keyed mechanical lock and no credentials at all, what replaces the PDL8200?
Drop to a mechanical Grade 1 lockset. The Cal-Royal NM8080 is a heavy duty Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset with an interchangeable core option on 1-3/4 inch doors, the NM8070 is the classroom version, and the Accentra 8805FL is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock with Arcadia lever in the 8800 Series. Corbin Russwin ML2003 covers Grade 1 classroom on 1-3/4 inch doors. You lose the 5,000 user capacity, audit trail, and card credentials that the PDL8200 provides, and gain a lock with no batteries to maintain.
20) Which electronic locks look like alternatives to the PDL8200 but will not hold up on a heavy commercial exterior door?
Two to rule out for that duty. The Codelocks CL2255 is an electronic tubular mortise latch rated medium duty in the CL2000 Series - a lighter build than a heavy commercial exterior opening asks for. The Schlage LEBMB-ADD mobile-enabled mortise lock is BHMA Grade 2 with privacy, office and apartment functions. The PDL8200 is a BHMA certified Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical lockset with weatherproof construction and a UL Listed fire rated latchbolt, which is what qualifies it for exterior and high-traffic commercial use.
21) We standardize on Sargent LFIC cores. Does the PDL8200 work, or do we need a different lock?
The PDL8200 is available in an IC-R version prepped for Sargent LFIC, less core, in bright brass, oil rubbed bronze and satin chrome, so it drops onto a Sargent keying system without changing lock platforms. There are also IC-C for Corbin Russwin 6-pin LFIC, IC-S for Schlage FSIC, and a plain IC version for SFIC, plus a standard conventional cylinder version with key override. Among the peers, the Cal-Royal NM8080 offers an interchangeable core option and the Accentra 8805FL is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock, but those are mechanical bodies without the card reader.
22) What finishes does the PDL8200 come in, and can I get the IC prep versions in all of them?
Three finishes: US3 bright brass, US10B oil rubbed bronze, and US26D satin chrome. Every cylinder option, including the standard conventional cylinder and all four IC preps, is offered in each of those three finishes, so you are not forced into a finish change to get the keying prep your building uses.
23) Can I use the Kaba Ilco 185 or a Sargent 4874 deadbolt in place of the PDL8200?
No - those are deadbolt hardware, not access control locksets. The Kaba Ilco 185 Series is a no-handing mortise lock in deadbolt function and the Sargent 4874 is a double cylinder mortise deadbolt on a 2-3/4 inch backset. Neither carries a lever, a credential reader, or user management. The PDL8200 is a complete cylindrical lockset with ADA compliant levers, an iClass reader and 12 button keypad, 5,000 users, and a reversible 1/2 inch throw latchbolt, and ships with both a 1-1/8 by 2-3/4 inch T strike and a 1-1/4 by 4-7/8 inch ASA strike.
