CL2255 Electronic Tubular Mortise Latch

Fit as a new install or as a quick retrofit when upgrading from basic single code mechanical locks.

The CL2255 is a medium duty tubular mortise latch electronic lock. The outside knob turns freely without operating the latchbolt. When a valid code is entered and the blue LED lights burn, the knob will retract the latchbolt. When the door closes the spring latch will automatically lock the door. The key will open the door for management functions. Code Free Mode can be programmed at the keypad using the Master Code.

Codelocks CL2255-BS – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Do I need to order a left hand or right hand version of the CL2255?
No handing to specify. The CL2255 is non handed and fits doors hung left or right, so one part number covers every opening in a building. Mounting orientation is vertical.
2) Will the CL2255 drop into the prep from an old mechanical code lock?
That is the retrofit it was built for. The CL2255 uses a tubular mortise latch and is intended as a quick swap when you are upgrading from a basic single code mechanical lock, with the flat bar spindle and 8mm adaptor covering the spindle side. Codelocks publishes a CL2255 installation template, so mark the existing door against it before you cut anything new.
3) How does the CL2255 actually operate, and does it lock itself when the door shuts?
Outside knob spins free until a valid code is entered; the blue LEDs light and the knob then retracts the latchbolt. The spring latch relatches automatically when the door closes, so the opening is secure without anyone turning a thumbturn. There is also a Code Free Mode you can program at the keypad with the Master Code when you want the door to pass freely during business hours.
4) How many user codes can I issue on the CL2255, and can I give a contractor a one-time code?
Memory holds up to 80 user codes of 4, 5 or 6 digits, plus 10 one-time user codes that expire after a single use, which is what most property managers use for a tradesperson or a viewing. All programming is done at the keypad on the door with the Master Code, so no cable, software or hub is involved.
5) What happens on the CL2255 if the batteries die with the door locked?
Two paths in. A key override is standard, so a mechanical key opens the door and is also used for management functions. For power, you can hold a PP3 battery against the external contacts to energise the lock and enter a code. Normal supply is 2 x 1.5V AA cells (supplied) giving up to 80,000 operations, and a red LED flashes on opening to warn you before they run out.
6) Is a Codelocks CL2255 heavy enough for a school corridor or a high traffic entrance?
The CL2255 is a medium duty commercial lock, which suits back-of-house doors, offices, storage rooms, plant rooms and multi-family common doors. For a classroom or high abuse opening where a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise lock is specified, look at the Alarm Lock DL3500CR Trilogy, a Grade 1 electronic mortise lock with classroom function and 300 user codes, or the TownSteel FME-2000 Grade 1 heavy duty RFID classroom mortise lockset.
7) Does the CL2255 have a deadbolt, and what should I use if I need one?
No deadbolt. The CL2255 is a latch-only lock: a spring tubular mortise latch that relatches on closing, with code entry retracting it through the knob. If the opening needs a deadbolt, the Alarm Lock DL4500 Series is a Grade 1 electronic mortise deadbolt with keypad, and the Kaba Ilco 185 Series is a non-handed mechanical mortise deadbolt.
8) What is a heavy duty alternative to the Codelocks CL2255 keypad lock for a high traffic commercial opening?
The Codelocks CL2255 is a medium duty electronic mortise latch lock, so for doors that see constant institutional traffic a heavier lockset is the better fit. The BEST 45HZ EZ Series is an electronic keypad mortise lock with key override function, and the Schlage CO-100-MS-40-KP is a standalone electronic mortise lock with a keypad reader rated Grade 1 heavy duty for 1-3/4 inch doors. Both keep the code-entry workflow while moving up in duty level.
9) I need card or mobile credentials instead of a keypad code - what replaces the Codelocks CL2255?
The CL2255 is a code-only lock with key override and no credential reader. For card or phone access, the Dormakaba LX-I-M002 Saffire is an electronic RFID mortise lockset with BLE mobile access at BHMA Grade 2, the Dormakaba E-Plex E5086 is a Grade 1 pushbutton and card mortise lock, and the Schlage Electronics LEMD-GRW is a Grade 1 wireless mortise lock with a 125 kHz proximity reader and mobile support.
10) I need more than 80 user codes - what else should I be looking at instead of the Codelocks CL2255?
The CL2255 stores up to 80 user codes plus 10 one-time codes, which suits a single tenant suite or a small staff door. For larger populations, the Alarm Lock DL3500CR Trilogy carries 300 user codes with classroom function, and the Alarm Lock DL4500 Series electronic mortise deadbolt carries 2,000 user codes with a privacy keypad. Both are Grade 1.
11) The Codelocks CL2255 uses a spring latch - what should I use if the opening needs a deadbolt?
The CL2255 uses a mortise spring latch that relocks automatically when the door closes, with the outside knob free until a valid code is entered. If the opening calls for a thrown bolt, the Alarm Lock DL4500 Series is a Grade 1 electronic mortise deadbolt with a privacy keypad, and the Sargent 4874 is a double cylinder mortise deadbolt with a 2-3/4 inch backset for a keyed rather than coded opening.
12) The Codelocks CL2255 runs on batteries - what is the wired equivalent for an access control system?
The CL2255 is powered by 2 x AA cells with a PP3 battery override at external contacts, so it needs no wiring to the door. If the job is tied into an access control panel, the BEST 45HW Series is a wired electromechanical mortise lock with 12V/24V operation, the Command Access ML190 Series is a motorized mortise lock with field selectable EL/EU operation on 24VDC, and the Schlage L9092EU is an electric lock/unlock outside lever mortise lock with request to exit on 12/24VDC.
13) Can the CL2255 be keyed alike with the other locks on my building?
Keyed alike is available on the CL2255, so a set of them can be brought onto one override key rather than the maintenance team carrying a key per door. Specify it when the order is placed, since it is set at the factory.
14) Is the CL2255 rated for an exterior door?
Codelocks lists the CL2255 as suitable for internal and external use. The body is zinc alloy with a PVD low maintenance finish, offered in Brushed Steel and Polished Brass, and the keypad uses individual stainless steel buttons in a 2 x 5 layout plus a programming button.
15) Do I need a card reader or network connection to manage a Codelocks CL2255?
No. The CL2255 is standalone and code-only: user types are codes, and every change is made at the keypad on the door using the Master Code, in seconds. If you need audit trails, credentials or central management, that is a different class of lock, for instance the Alarm Lock DL1300NW Trilogy Networx wireless mortise lock, the Dormakaba Saffire LX-I-M002 with RFID and BLE mobile access, or the Schlage LEMD-GRW ENGAGE wireless mortise lock with a 125kHz proximity reader.
16) Is a Schlage PM010 or a Cal-Royal NM8080 a substitute for the Codelocks CL2255?
No. The CL2255 is an electronic keypad lock that retracts the latch after a valid code is entered. The Schlage PM010 is a Grade 1 non-keyed passage latch mortise lock, so it never secures the opening, and the Cal-Royal NM8080 is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset that is key operated with an interchangeable core option. Both are mechanical and neither accepts user codes.
17) Does the Codelocks CL2255 need to be handed like most mortise locksets?
No. The CL2255 is non-handed and fits doors hung left or right, so one part number covers both swings. Among mechanical mortise locks, the BEST 45H Public Entrance lock body and the Falcon MA101 Grade 1 passage lock are field reversible, while Baldwin lists the 6310190RRLS specifically as a right hand reverse lever lock, which means handing has to be confirmed before you order it.
18) I need a classroom security function rather than the storeroom style operation of the Codelocks CL2255 - what should I specify?
The CL2255 keeps the outside knob free until a valid code is entered, and the latch relocks on closing. For a classroom lockdown application, the Alarm Lock DL2700CR Trilogy T2 is a Grade 1 electronic mortise lock with classroom function and weatherproof design, the TownSteel FME-4000 Series is an electronic intruder classroom mortise lockset with RFID, and the Marks USA LA318GJ is a Grade 1 classroom security indicator mortise lockset with ANSI strike for 1-3/4 inch doors.
19) What finish does the CL2255 come in?
Brushed Steel is the finish on this one, applied as a PVD low maintenance coating so it holds up outdoors better than plated brass. Codelocks also builds the CL2255 in Polished Brass if you are matching older door furniture.
20) What are the touchscreen or pushbutton alternatives to the Codelocks CL2255 keypad?
The CL2255 uses individual stainless steel buttons in a 2 x 5 vertical layout plus a programming button. If a different keypad style is preferred, the Accentra NTM623-NR nexTouch Generation 3 is a Grade 1 mortise lock with a capacitive touchscreen keypad and cylinder override, and the Dormakaba PowerPlex P2066 Series is a mortise lock in the PowerPlex 2000 family.
