Command Access CLN70 Grade 1 Electrified Cylindrical Lock with Classroom Function

Professional Electrified Cylindrical Lock for Classroom Security Applications

The Command Access CLN70 is a Grade 1 electrified cylindrical lock based on the proven Schlage ND80 series platform, designed for heavy-duty classroom security applications. This classroom function lock operates at 12V or 24V AC/DC with 250 mA (12V) or 150 mA (24V) current draw and 3 watts power consumption. The lock features fail safe/fail secure operation where the outside lever is locked or unlocked electronically, with latchbolt retraction by key outside or lever inside, while the inside lever remains always free for immediate egress.

Professional Features & Benefits

  • Flexible Power Options: Available in 12V or 24V AC/DC operation with plug-in bridge rectifier allowing AC or DC power sources for versatile installation requirements.
  • Continuous Duty Operation: Continuous duty solenoids enable "continuously on" applications including fail safe operation and extended unlock cycles for high-traffic environments.
  • Dual Fail Mode Configuration: Field-configurable fail safe (electrically locked) or fail secure (electrically unlocked) operation adapts to specific security requirements.
  • Heavy-Duty Construction: Grade 1 rated cylindrical lock built on the proven Schlage ND80 series platform for demanding commercial applications.
  • Classroom Function Design: Outside lever electronically controlled with key override capability, while inside lever provides always-free egress for emergency situations.
  • Standard Keyway Compatibility: Available with Schlage C type keyway standard with options for all Schlage original keyways for existing key systems.
  • Optional Request to Exit: REX (Request to Exit) or AE switch available on all functions for integrated access control systems.
  • Manufacturer Warranty: 3 Year Warranty for added confidence and protection in commercial installations.

Command Access CLN70 EL RHO 626 SC 24V – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Command Access CLN70 classroom lock still let people out during a lockdown or a power failure?
The inside lever on the CLN70 is always free, mechanically, so egress never depends on power or on the state of the solenoid. Only the outside lever is electrified. Order it fail-safe if you want the outside lever to unlock when power drops, or fail-secure if you want the outside lever to stay locked. Either way the room empties from the inside.
2) What is the difference between fail-safe and fail-secure on an electrified classroom lock, and which should I order?
Fail-safe means the outside lever is locked while energized and unlocks when power is cut, which is what you want on an egress or evacuation path controlled by a fire alarm relay. Fail-secure means the outside lever stays locked when power is cut and only unlocks when energized, which is the normal choice for classroom and office doors where a power loss must not open the building. The CLN70 is ordered as one or the other, and it is field configurable between the two modes.
3) Can the Command Access CLN70 replace a Schlage ND80 series lock already in the door?
The CLN70 is built on the Schlage ND80 series platform, so it is the electrified version of that lock rather than a different chassis. It comes standard with the Schlage C keyway, and all Schlage original keyways are available, so it can be cut into an existing Schlage key system. What changes versus a plain ND80 is that you now have to get power to the door, since the outside lever is solenoid driven.
4) What voltage and current does the CLN70 electrified lock draw, and can I run it off an AC power supply?
The CLN70 runs on 12V or 24V, AC or DC, and you pick the voltage when you order. Draw is 250 mA at 12V or 150 mA at 24V, 3 watts either way. A plug-in bridge rectifier is included in the design, which is what lets it accept AC as well as DC, so an existing AC transformer feeding the door will work. Size your supply on the 250 mA figure if you are running 12V and multiplying doors.
5) Do I need a request-to-exit switch in the CLN70, or can I use a separate REX device?
REX is an ordering option on the CLN70, included or not included, and it is available on all functions. Order it included when your access control panel needs to shunt the door alarm or record a legitimate exit as someone turns the inside lever, which is the usual case on a monitored opening. Skip it if the room already has a motion REX or the door is not alarmed, because the lever REX then adds wiring you do not use. It cannot be added later without opening the lock, so decide at order time.
6) Does the CLN70 come with a cylinder, or can I use my building's small format interchangeable core?
Three cylinder choices. SC gives you a conventional Schlage C keyway cylinder, standard. SFIC is prepped for small format interchangeable core, and LFIC is a factory large format I/C prep. The two I/C options are preps, so the core comes from your existing key system and gets dropped in, which is how you keep a school or hospital on one master key system without re-keying anything.
7) How does classroom function work on the CLN70 when the access control system is offline?
Key override is built in. On the CLN70 the outside lever is controlled electronically, but the latchbolt still retracts by key from outside or by the lever inside, so a teacher or officer with the key gets in whether or not the panel is talking. That is what separates this from a strike or a maglock, where losing the controller can leave you standing at the door.
8) Can the CLN70 stay unlocked all day for a corridor or office door without burning out?
Yes. The CLN70 uses continuous duty solenoids, so it is rated to sit energized indefinitely. That covers fail-safe installs (which are energized whenever the building has power) and scheduled unlock periods where a door is held free-access for a whole shift or school day. An intermittent-duty electrified lock cannot do that.
9) What lever styles and finishes does the Command Access CLN70 come in?
Trim comes in three lever designs, ATH, RHO and SPA, matching the Schlage ND80 lever families. Finishes are 626 satin chrome, 625 polished chrome and 613 oil rubbed bronze. If you are standardizing a building, 626 is the usual commercial default and will match most existing Schlage ND hardware on the other openings.
10) Is a cylindrical electrified lock like the CLN70 heavy duty enough for a school corridor?
The CLN70 is Grade 1, the heavy-duty commercial rating, and it is the electrified build of the Schlage ND80 chassis rather than a light-duty lock with a solenoid added. That is the tier specified for classrooms, healthcare rooms and other high-traffic institutional openings. It is a commercial-only lock, not a residential product.
11) Should I use an electrified cylindrical lock or an electric strike for classroom access control?
An electrified cylindrical lock like the CLN70 puts the control in the lock, so the door stays a normal bored-prep opening and the frame is untouched apart from getting power across the hinge. An electric strike puts the control in the frame instead, which usually means cutting the frame and is the better route when you want to keep the existing mechanical lockset. Where the CLN70 wins is on doors that need lockdown from the secure side plus always-free egress and a lever REX signal back to the panel, since all of that lives in one chassis.
12) How many order options does the CLN70 have and what do I have to specify?
Six decisions on the CLN70: voltage (12V or 24V), fail-safe or fail-secure, cylinder prep (SC conventional, SFIC or LFIC), lever trim (ATH, RHO or SPA), finish (613, 625 or 626), and REX included or not. Miss one and the lock gets built wrong for the opening, since none of these are field-swappable except the fail mode.
