Arrow 17-87A-53 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Arrow 17-87A-53 the complete mortise lock or just the trim?
It is the outside escutcheon trim, the H design escutcheon plate for Arrow AM/BM Series mortise locks. It covers the 11, 13, 16, 17, 19, 21-24 and 31-34 functions on the outside of the door. The mortise lock case, lever, cylinder and strike are separate items, so if you are building a complete opening you need the BM Series lock body to go with it.
2) What backset do I need to prep the door for an Arrow BM Series mortise lock with this escutcheon?
2-3/4 inches, and that is the only backset offered here, with minimum and maximum both listed at 2-3/4. Standard ANSI mortise prep, so an existing 2-3/4 backset mortise pocket is what you want in the door edge.
3) Can I use Arrow BM Series mortise trim on a 3-hour fire rated door?
Yes. The AM/BM Series is UL and cUL listed for 3-hour fire rated doors, and both UL and ULC listings are stated for the series. That covers stairwell and cross-corridor openings in schools and hospitals where the door assembly carries a 3-hour label.
4) Does Arrow BM Series mortise hardware meet Grade 1 and ADA for an institutional spec?
It is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.13, Series 1000, Operational Grade 1, and also to A156.41. For accessibility it is listed as ADA compliant and ICC A117.1 compliant, which is what most state codes reference for lever operation force and shape.
5) Will the latch reach my existing ANSI mortise strike?
The latchbolt throw is 1 inch, and the series is furnished for ANSI strikes in both curved lip and straight lip. If the frame already has a standard ANSI mortise strike cutout you are lining up with the same prep; pick curved lip where the frame is rabbeted or the door is set back, straight lip on a flush frame.
6) Can Arrow BM Series mortise locks be keyed into the master key system we already run?
Yes. The series takes conventional or SFIC cylinder formats and can be keyed into new or existing Arrow or competitive master key systems, so a property running another brand's system does not have to start a new keyway. Two keys are furnished.
7) What finish does the Arrow 17-87A-53 escutcheon come in?
Satin chrome, BHMA 626. That is the standard commercial finish on most schools and healthcare openings, so it will match Arrow cylindrical lock trim and exit device trim already carrying 626 in the same building.
8) Does the entrance/dormitory function with deadbolt mean the deadbolt is key operated from outside?
This is a single cylinder with deadbolt entrance/dormitory setup, so one cylinder on the outside operates the deadbolt and the key retracts it. The 17-87A-53 escutcheon is the outside plate that carries that cylinder opening along with the lever.
9) Is the Arrow BM mortise lock handed, and can I flip it in the field?
Handed, but field reversible. The lockset re-hands without opening the lock case, so one part number covers left and right hand openings and you are not stuck if the door swing on the drawing is wrong.
10) Escutcheon trim or rose trim for an Arrow mortise lock, which should I order?
Escutcheon is the full vertical plate that covers both the lever and the cylinder or thumbturn, which is what you want on a function like this one that has a deadbolt and a cylinder stacked above the lever. Rose trim is the small round plate at the lever only. Worth knowing: the self aligning trim feature on this series is standard with rose trim, not escutcheon, so escutcheon installs benefit from the throughbolted mounting for alignment and added pull-off security.
11) Is this Arrow mortise trim suitable for a high traffic school or hospital corridor?
That is exactly the application. Arrow BM Series lever mortise locks are built for heavy duty use in schools, hospitals and commercial buildings, and the line is commercial rather than residential grade, with Grade 1 operational certification behind it.
