Command Access MRC18080 Electrified Mortise Lock Retrofit Chassis with Storeroom Function for Cal Royal 8000 Series

Professional Electrified Mortise Lock Retrofit Solution

The Command Access MRC18080 is a high-quality Grade 1 electrified mortise lock retrofit chassis designed specifically for Cal Royal 8000 Series applications. This storeroom function chassis operates on 12 or 24VAC/DC with low current draw of 700 mA at 12V or 350 mA at 24V, featuring field-reversible handing and continuous duty solenoids for reliable performance. Available in both fail safe (EL) and fail secure (EU) configurations with 8 watts power consumption and plug-in bridge rectifier for AC or DC power sources.

Professional Features & Benefits

  • Dual Voltage Operation: 12 or 24VAC/DC (+/- 10%) with low current draw of 700 mA at 12V or 350 mA at 24V for flexible power system integration.
  • Fail Safe/Fail Secure Options: Available in both fail safe (EL) and fail secure (EU) configurations with field-reversible operation for adaptable security requirements.
  • Grade 1 Construction: High-quality chassis built to withstand years of heavy-duty commercial use with continuous duty solenoids.
  • Cal Royal 8000 Series Compatibility: Specifically designed as retrofit chassis for Cal Royal 8000 Series mortise locks with precise fit and function.

Command Access MRC18080EL 24V 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Command Access MRC18080 retrofit into an existing Cal Royal 8000 Series mortise lock?
That is exactly what the MRC18080 is built for. It is a retrofit chassis for Cal Royal 8000 Series mortise locks, so you reuse the existing case trim, levers and cylinder and swap in the electrified chassis. It is chassis only, not a complete lockset, so it will not drop into another manufacturer's mortise case.
2) What is the difference between the fail safe (EL) and fail secure (EU) versions of the MRC18080?
Fail safe (EL) unlocks the outside lever when power drops, which is what you want on stair and egress-path doors tied to the fire alarm. Fail secure (EU) stays locked with no power, which is the usual pick for storerooms, IT closets and exterior openings where a power loss should not open the door. Both are offered, and you choose it at order time along with voltage.
3) How does storeroom function work on an electrified mortise chassis?
Outside lever stays locked and is released electronically; the key retracts the latchbolt from outside at any time. The inside lever is always free, so egress is never affected by the power state or by the access control system. That is why storeroom is the standard function for secured rooms in schools, hospitals and office buildings.
4) What power supply do I need for the MRC18080 and how much current does it draw?
It runs on 12 or 24VAC/DC within plus or minus 10 percent. Draw is 700 mA at 12V or 350 mA at 24V, 8 watts either way. A plug-in bridge rectifier is included so you can feed it AC or DC. Size your supply for 700 mA per door if you are running 12V, and note that fail safe doors sit energized continuously, which the continuous duty solenoid is rated for.
5) What is the closest electrified mortise alternative to the Command Access MRC18080 if I need a complete lockset rather than a retrofit chassis?
The MRC18080 is a retrofit chassis intended to drop into an existing Cal Royal 8000 Series mortise lock body, so the door keeps its current trim and lock case. If you need a full lockset instead, the SDC 7800 PRO Series is a solenoid controlled mortise lock supplied as a complete unit with a vandal resistant clutch, and the SDC 7600 Series is a Grade 1 motorized latch retraction mortise lockset. Both SDC units are listed for 1-3/4 inch doors. The choice comes down to whether you are reusing an existing Cal Royal 8000 case or replacing the whole mortise lock.
6) Is the DynaLock EML-1 a substitute for the Command Access MRC18080?
Both are electrified mortise locks with a storeroom function, so the door behaves the same way: outside lever controlled electrically while the inside lever stays free for egress. The difference is scope. The MRC18080 is a chassis-only retrofit matched to Cal Royal 8000 Series mortise bodies and is offered in fail safe and fail secure builds at 12V or 24V. The DynaLock EML-1 is an EML Series electrified mortise lock in its own right. If the opening already has a Cal Royal 8000 lock you want to keep, the MRC18080 is the matched part; if you are specifying a new mortise lock outright, the EML Series is the comparable.
7) Do I have to specify handing when ordering the MRC18080 chassis?
No. The chassis is field-reversible, so one part covers left and right hand openings and you set it at install. What you do specify is voltage (12V or 24V) and fail safe or fail secure.
8) Is this chassis heavy duty enough for a high-traffic school or hospital door?
It is Grade 1, heavy-duty commercial construction with continuous duty solenoids, and Command Access lists educational, healthcare, office, retail, industrial, multi-tenant residential and government openings as its applications. Grade 1 is the top ANSI/BHMA durability tier for mortise locks.
9) Can I use the MRC18080 if I only need a mechanical storeroom lock with no wiring?
No, this is an electronic chassis and it needs a 12 or 24V feed and door wiring to do anything. If there is no power at the opening, look at a straight mechanical mortise lock instead, such as the Schlage L Series L9050BDC, a Grade 1 single cylinder non-deadbolt mortise lock for 1-3/4 inch doors.
10) Can the MRC18080 stay unlocked for long periods without overheating?
Yes. The solenoids are continuous duty, so continuously energized applications are fine, including fail safe doors that sit powered all day and extended unlock schedules on an access control system.
11) For an abuse-prone opening in a school corridor, is the MRC18080 or the SDC 7800 the better pick?
Both are heavy duty electrified mortise solutions. The MRC18080 is Grade 1 chassis construction with continuous duty solenoids and is field reversible for handing, but it only applies where a Cal Royal 8000 Series mortise body is already in the door. The SDC Selectric 7800 PRO Series is a solenoid controlled mortise lock with a vandal resistant clutch, built for 1-3/4 inch doors, which lets the outside lever spin free under force instead of transmitting the load into the chassis. On high-abuse corridor doors that clutch is the deciding feature; on a Cal Royal retrofit where you are keeping the existing case and trim, the MRC18080 is the matched part.
12) Is 626 the only finish on the Command Access MRC18080?
Yes, 626 satin chrome. Since this is the internal chassis and not the visible trim, the finish of the opening is set by the Cal Royal levers, roses and cylinder you keep in place, so it will still match the other doors in the building.
