Command Access MRC1 Series Electrified Mortise Lock Retrofit Chassis with Institutional Function for Cal Royal 8000 Series

Professional Electrified Mortise Lock Retrofit Solution

The Command Access MRC18082 is a Grade 1 electrified mortise lock retrofit chassis designed specifically for Cal Royal 8000 Series applications. This institutional function chassis operates on 12 or 24VAC/DC with field-reversible fail safe or fail secure operation, providing both outside and inside lever control with electronic locking capability. Built for continuous duty applications with low current draw of 700 mA at 12V or 350 mA at 24V, this retrofit solution delivers reliable performance for demanding commercial installations.

Professional Features & Benefits

  • Dual Voltage Operation: 12 or 24VAC/DC (+/- 10%) with plug-in bridge rectifier for flexible power source compatibility.
  • Grade 1 Construction: High-quality chassis built to withstand years of heavy-duty commercial use and demanding applications.
  • Institutional Function: Outside and inside levers simultaneously locked (EL) or unlocked (EU) electronically with latchbolt retraction by key on either side.
  • Continuous Duty Design: Solenoids allow for "continuously on" applications including fail safe operation and extended unlock cycles.
  • Field-Reversible Configuration: Handing and fail safe/fail secure operation can be configured on-site for installation flexibility.
  • Low Power Consumption: 8 watts total power consumption with efficient 700 mA at 12V or 350 mA at 24V current draw.
  • Cal Royal 8000 Series Compatibility: Specifically engineered as a retrofit chassis for existing Cal Royal 8000 Series mortise lock installations.
  • Manufacturer Warranty: 3 Year Warranty for added confidence and protection in commercial applications.

Command Access MRC18082EL 24V 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Command Access MRC18082 retrofit chassis fit my existing Cal Royal 8000 Series mortise lock?
That is exactly what the MRC18082 is built for. It is an electrified retrofit chassis engineered for Cal Royal 8000 Series mortise lock installations, so the existing mortise pocket, trim and cylinder prep stay as they are and only the chassis is swapped for the electrified one. If the lock in the door is any other brand or series, this is the wrong chassis.
2) Do I have to order the Command Access MRC18082 as fail safe or fail secure, or can I change it in the field?
Both the fail safe / fail secure mode and the handing are field-reversible on the MRC18082, so an installer can set it at the opening. The chassis is still ordered as a fail-safe or fail-secure configuration along with 12V or 24V, all in 626 satin chrome.
3) What power supply do I need for a Command Access MRC1 electrified mortise chassis?
It runs on 12 or 24VAC/DC (+/- 10%) with a plug-in bridge rectifier, so either an AC or DC supply works. Budget 700 mA at 12V or 350 mA at 24V, 8 watts total. On a multi-door access control job the 24V option keeps current draw down and lets you run more openings off one supply.
4) Can this electrified mortise chassis stay energized all day for a school that unlocks classroom doors during hours?
Yes. The solenoids are continuous duty, rated for continuously on applications including fail safe operation and long unlock periods, so holding it energized through a school day or a scheduled unlock window is a normal use. Pick fail safe if the door must unlock on power loss for egress or evacuation, fail secure if it must stay locked.
5) Is the Command Access MRC18082 a complete lockset or just the chassis?
Chassis only. You reuse the Cal Royal 8000 Series lock case trim, levers and cylinder already on the door; the MRC1 chassis is the electrified guts that drop into that existing installation. Plan on wiring and a power transfer to the door as separate items.
6) What is the difference between the Command Access MRC18082 institutional function and a storeroom function electrified mortise lock?
The MRC18082 is institutional function: outside and inside levers are simultaneously locked or unlocked electronically, with latchbolt retraction by key on either side. The DynaLock EML-1 is a storeroom function electrified mortise lock, where the outside lever is the controlled side. Choose institutional when the opening has to secure or release both sides together, such as a classroom or patient room corridor door.
7) If the door does not already have a Cal Royal 8000 Series mortise lock, what electrified mortise option works instead of the Command Access MRC18082?
The MRC18082 is a retrofit chassis engineered specifically for existing Cal Royal 8000 Series mortise lock bodies, so it only makes sense when that lock is already in the door. For a complete electrified mortise lockset rather than a chassis swap, the SDC 7800 PRO Series is a solenoid controlled mortise lock with a vandal resistant clutch, and the SDC 7600 Series is a Grade 1 motorized latch retraction mortise lockset with 24VDC control. Both SDC units are listed for 1-3/4 inch doors.
8) Is this chassis heavy enough for a high traffic commercial corridor?
It is a Grade 1, heavy-duty commercial chassis, the top ANSI/BHMA durability tier for mortise locks, which is why it is specified in schools, hospitals, government buildings and multi-tenant residential.
9) If I want a non-electrified Grade 1 mortise lock instead, what do you carry?
For a straight mechanical Grade 1 mortise lock, the Schlage L9050BDC is an entrance/office function lockset, single cylinder non-deadbolt, with a disposable SFIC core, rated heavy duty for 1-3/4 inch doors. No power supply or wiring involved, but also no remote release, which is the whole point of the electrified MRC1 chassis.
10) For a door tied to a panic device or high-cycle access control, is a motorized latch retraction lock a better choice than the Command Access MRC18082?
The MRC18082 uses continuous duty solenoids rated for continuously on applications including fail safe operation, drawing 700 mA at 12V or 350 mA at 24V. The SDC 7600 Series is a Grade 1 motorized latch retraction mortise lockset controlled at 24VDC, which retracts the latch by motor instead of holding a solenoid. Where the specification calls for motor driven latch retraction, the 7600 matches it; where a solenoid controlled lever is acceptable, the MRC18082 retrofits the existing Cal Royal 8000 body.
11) Which electrified mortise option holds up best on an abused opening compared with the Command Access MRC18082?
The MRC18082 is a Grade 1, heavy-duty commercial chassis built for continuous duty service. If lever abuse is the concern, the SDC 7800 PRO Series is a solenoid controlled mortise lock with a vandal resistant clutch, which lets the lever spin rather than transmit force to the works. Both are solenoid controlled electrified mortise products, so the decision is retrofit chassis into an existing Cal Royal 8000 body versus a complete lockset with clutched trim.
12) Does the MRC18082 come in any finish besides satin chrome?
626 satin chrome is the finish across all four configurations. Since it is a chassis that sits inside the door, the visible trim on the opening stays whatever is already installed.
