Command Access ML170EL 06A 626 24V – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Command Access ML170 drop into an existing Schlage L9000 mortise prep?
Yes. The ML170 is a complete lock chassis and trim built to retrofit Schlage L9000 series preparation, so an opening already mortised for an L series lock takes it without new door machining. That is the main reason people specify it: you get an electrified classroom lock in a door that was previously mechanical, without cutting the door again.
2) What does classroom function mean on an electrified mortise lock like the ML170?
On the ML170, the outside lever is locked or unlocked electronically, and a key overrides it mechanically. The inside lever is always free, so anyone inside can get out whether the lock is powered or not. That free inside lever is what makes it usable on egress doors in schools and offices.
3) Should I order the ML170 fail safe or fail secure?
Fail safe (EL) unlocks the outside lever when power drops, which is what you use on doors tied into a fire alarm release or a free-egress access control scheme. Fail secure (EU) stays locked without power, which is the usual choice for classroom and storeroom doors where you do not want the opening to open up during an outage. Both are offered on the ML170, and the configuration is field reversible if the application changes.
4) What voltage and current does the ML170 electrified mortise lock draw?
It runs on 12 or 24VAC/DC within plus or minus 10 percent, drawing 700mA at 12V or 350mA at 24V. Size your power supply off the figure for the voltage you order, and note that a plug-in bridge rectifier ships with every lock so the same unit will accept AC or DC. Voltage is a build option, so pick 12V or 24V to match the supply already in the panel.
5) What is the difference between the Command Access ML170 and the DynaLock EML-1 electrified mortise lock?
Function is the deciding difference. The Command Access ML170 is a classroom function electrified mortise lock, so the outside lever is locked or unlocked electronically while the inside lever always allows egress, with key override. The DynaLock EML-1 is a storeroom function electrified mortise lock, where the outside lever stays locked and entry is by key or by the electric release rather than being left unlocked for a class period. Choose the ML170 where staff need the opening held unlocked during occupied hours, and the EML-1 where the door should always relock.
6) Can the ML170 stay unlocked all day without burning out?
Yes. The ML170 uses a continuous duty solenoid, so it is rated for continuously on applications, including fail safe operation and long scheduled unlock periods such as a school day or business hours. A momentary-duty electrified lock would overheat in that use.
7) What do I have to specify when ordering an ML170 classroom mortise lock?
Four things: fail safe or fail secure, voltage (12V or 24V), rose style A or B, and finish. Finishes are 613 oil rubbed bronze, 625 polished chrome, and 626 satin chrome. The 06 lever trim comes with the lock, so you are not ordering trim separately.
8) Is the ML170 heavy enough for a school or hospital corridor?
It is a commercial, heavy-duty mortise lock with ANSI Grade 1 performance, which is the top grade for commercial lock durability and the level normally specified for education, healthcare, and government interiors. Domestically manufactured components and controlled tolerances on the electrification are part of the build.
9) How does the Command Access ML170 compare with the SDC 7800 or the Schlage L9050BDC?
The ML170 is a solenoid-operated classroom-function electrified mortise lock that drops into Schlage L9000 prep. The SDC Selectric 7800 PRO Series is also a solenoid controlled mortise lock but adds a vandal resistant clutch and is listed for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Schlage L9050BDC is not electrified at all: it is a mechanical Grade 1 entrance/office mortise lock with disposable SFIC, so pick it only if you do not need access control on the opening. If you want motorized latch retraction rather than solenoid lever control, the SDC 7600 Series is the Grade 1 alternative.
10) I need a storeroom function electrified mortise lock, not classroom. Is the ML170 the wrong part?
Yes, it is. The ML170 is built as a classroom function lock, where the outside lever is switched electronically and a key overrides. For a storeroom opening, where the outside lever stays locked at all times and entry is by key or credential only, look at the DynaLock EML-1 Series electrified mortise lock, which is a storeroom function device.
11) For an abuse-prone opening, is there a mortise lock with a clutched lever instead of the ML170?
The SDC Selectric 7800 PRO Series is a solenoid controlled mortise lock with a vandal resistant clutch for 1-3/4 inch doors, which lets the outside lever spin free under force while locked. The Command Access ML170 uses a continuous duty solenoid to lock and unlock the outside lever and is built to ANSI Grade 1 heavy-duty standards with classroom function and key override. Both are solenoid driven; the 7800 adds the clutch mechanism for high-abuse doors.
12) Which electrified mortise lock should I use where the door must unlock on a fire alarm?
The Command Access ML170 is available in fail safe (EL) or fail secure (EU) operation and is field reversible, with a continuous duty solenoid rated for continuously energized fail safe use, so it suits openings that must release on alarm. The SDC 7800 PRO Series is also a solenoid controlled mortise lock for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the DynaLock EML-1 is a storeroom function electrified mortise lock, which keeps the outside lever locked rather than free.
