Accentra CRR-8808FL-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Accentra 8808FL classroom mortise lock fit a 2-1/4 inch thick door?
Yes. The 8808FL covers door thicknesses from 1-3/4 inches all the way up to 3-1/4 inches, which is a wider range than most mortise locks in this class. Standard commercial doors at 1-3/4 inches are covered, and so are thick lead-lined, acoustic, or exterior slabs. Backset is the standard 2-3/4 inches.
2) Do I have to order the 8808FL handed, or can it be reversed in the field?
No handing to specify. The 8808FL is field reversible, so one lock covers left and right hand openings. That makes it easier to stock a couple of spares for a school or campus instead of carrying both hands.
3) What does the classroom function on the 8808 mortise lock actually do?
Classroom function means the outside lever is locked and unlocked by key from the outside only. There is no inside pushbutton or turn, so a teacher has to step into the corridor with a key to secure the door. The inside lever always retracts the latch for free egress. If you want the door lockable from inside the room, classroom function is the wrong choice and you should be looking at a classroom security or intruder function instead, such as the BEST 45HCA intruder lock body or the TownSteel FME-4000 electronic intruder classroom lockset.
4) Can I use the 8808FL on a 3-hour fire rated classroom door?
Yes. The 8808 mortise lock is UL/cUL listed for 3-hour fire rated doors, so it is usable on a rated corridor or stairwell opening. It is also certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.13, Series 1000, Operational Grade 1, which is what most school and institutional specs call for.
5) Should I order the 8808FL with escutcheon trim or rose trim?
Both are offered: CN escutcheon or R rose. Escutcheon is the one to pick for high-abuse openings, since the heavy-duty escutcheon trim resists damage and vandalism and the CN escutcheon version is the one that meets Security Grade 1, not just Operational Grade 1. Rose trim is the cleaner look and covers less of the door face, which matters if you are matching existing hardware or working around a narrow lite. Both come with the Carmel lever.
6) Can I buy the 8808 classroom mortise lock without cylinders so I can key it to my own system?
Yes. A less-cylinder option is available, which is how most locksmiths and facilities buy it when they are keying into an existing master system or using their own interchangeable cores. If you want it supplied with cylinders, order the version with Less Cylinder set to No.
7) Will the 8808FL latch into my existing ANSI strike?
The 8808FL uses a 3/4 inch latchbolt throw on a 2-3/4 inch backset, which is the standard commercial mortise geometry. If the door is already prepped for an ANSI mortise lock at a 2-3/4 inch backset and the frame carries a standard ANSI strike, the latch will engage. It also carries a reinforced stainless steel deadbolt, so verify your frame strike has the deadbolt pocket if you are coming off a latch-only lock.
8) What are my options if I need a classroom mortise lock but the 8808FL will not work on my opening?
A few directions depending on why it does not fit. For a straight mechanical Grade 1 classroom equivalent, the Corbin Russwin ML2003 and the Cal-Royal NM8070 are both Grade 1 classroom mortise locksets, though both are listed for 1-3/4 inch doors only, so neither covers the thicker slabs the 8808FL handles up to 3-1/4 inches. If you want keypad or credential access rather than a key, the Alarm Lock DL3500CR and DL2700CR are Grade 1 electronic mortise classroom locks for 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors, and the TownSteel FME-2000 is a Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset with RFID.
9) What is a direct cross for the Accentra 8808FL classroom mortise lock from another manufacturer?
The closest mechanical equivalents are the Corbin Russwin ML2003, a Grade 1 mortise classroom lockset in the ML2000 Series, and the Cal-Royal NM8070, a heavy duty Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch. Both are keyed classroom function like the Accentra 8808FL, which is a Grade 1 classroom mortise lock in the 8800 Series with the Carmel lever. One difference matters for retrofit: the Corbin Russwin ML2003 and the Cal-Royal NM8070 are both listed for 1-3/4 inch doors, while the 8808FL covers 1-3/4 inch through 3-1/4 inch door thickness, so on a thicker door the Accentra is the one that still fits.
10) My district wants lockdown from inside the classroom - does the 8808FL do that or do I need a different lock?
The Accentra 8808FL is a keyed classroom function mortise lock, which is keyed from the outside. For an intruder-type function, the BEST 45HCA heavy duty mortise lockbody is offered with an intruder function, and the TownSteel FME-4000 Series is an electronic intruder classroom mortise lockset with RFID technology, Grade 1 heavy duty, for 1-3/4 inch doors. Confirm your local code before specifying any of the three.
11) Can I use a Baldwin 6310 or Emtek mortise lockset in place of the Accentra 8808FL?
Those are not substitutes for a classroom opening. The Baldwin 6310 is an entrance/storeroom mortise lock body on a 2-1/2 inch backset, and the Baldwin 6301 is entrance/apartment function, also 2-1/2 inch backset - different function and a different backset from the 8808FL, which uses a 2-3/4 inch backset. The Emtek 3102 Memphis, 3104 Hamilton, 3106 Manhattan and 3019 Brisbane mortise entrance locksets are dummy function, meaning they do not latch or lock at all. The Accentra 8808FL is a keyed Grade 1 classroom mortise lock, UL/cUL listed for 3-hour fire rated doors.
12) We need the classroom door tied into an access control system - what replaces the Accentra 8808FL?
For a wired or networked opening, the BEST 45HW Series is a wired electromechanical mortise lock with 12V/24V operation, and the Command Access ML190 Series is a motorized mortise lock with field selectable EL/EU operation on 24VDC. Schlage's L9092EU with 03A trim is a heavy duty electric lock/unlock outside lever mortise lock, keyed outside, with request to exit and 12/24VDC operation for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Accentra 8808FL is mechanical only, so it is the choice when the door has no power run to it.
13) Does the Schlage LE or Dormakaba Saffire mortise lock meet the same grade as the Accentra 8808FL?
Not in every case. The Schlage Electronics LEBMB-ADD mobile-enabled mortise lock is Grade 2 with a 3-hour fire rating for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Dormakaba Saffire LX-I-M002 electronic RFID mortise lockset with BLE mobile access is BHMA Grade 2. The Schlage LEMD-GRW in the ENGAGE Series is Grade 1 with a 3-hour fire rating, and the Dormakaba E-Plex E5086 is Grade 1. The Accentra 8808FL is certified ANSI/BHMA A156.13 Series 1000 Operational Grade 1 and is UL/cUL listed for 3-hour fire rated doors, so if the spec says Grade 1 mortise, check the electronic candidate's grade before swapping.
14) What is the difference between the single cylinder and double cylinder 8808FL?
Single cylinder is the normal classroom build, keyed from the outside only. The double cylinder version adds key control on the inside face as well. Before you spec double cylinder on a classroom or any door in a means of egress, check it against your local code, since a key on the inside can defeat free egress.
15) Is the 8808FL an electronic lock or does it need power?
Purely mechanical, no power and no wiring. It operates by key and lever only. If your project needs access control at the door, an electrified mortise lock is a different animal, for example the BEST 45HW wired electromechanical mortise at 12V/24V or the Command Access ML190 motorized mortise with field selectable fail safe and fail secure on 24VDC.
16) What is the equivalent Accentra 8800 lock if the opening is an office or a storeroom rather than a classroom?
Function determines the model. The Accentra 8808FL is the classroom function in the Grade 1 8800 Series. For other functions in the same mortise footprint from other makers, Cal-Royal offers the NM8050 office/entrance and the NM8080 storeroom with interchangeable core option, both Grade 1 heavy duty for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the NM8440 Grade 1 privacy mortise lockset with deadbolt. Hager's 3800 Series covers the 3850E office function with lever and escutcheon, non-keyed, on a 2-3/4 inch backset for 1-3/4 to 2-1/2 inch doors.
17) I only need a non-keyed passage or privacy mortise lock on some of the doors - what pairs with the 8808FL on the rest of the job?
For the non-keyed openings, Schlage's PM010 is a Grade 1 passage latch mortise lock for 1-3/4 inch doors, and Falcon's MA101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise passage lock with field reversible operation and a fire rating. Hager's 3800 Series covers 3810E passage with escutcheon and 3810S passage with rose, both on a 2-3/4 inch backset, plus the 3840S privacy for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors. The Accentra 8808FL handles the keyed classroom doors, is field reversible for handing, and shares the 2-3/4 inch backset with the Hager 3800 passage and privacy models.
18) Is the Sargent 7925 dormitory lock a substitute for the Accentra 8808FL on a residence hall door?
They are different functions. The Sargent 7925 is a Grade 1 heavy duty corridor/dormitory exit function mortise lock in the 7900 Series with rose trim and a single cylinder deadbolt. The Accentra 8808FL is classroom function, Grade 1, available in single or double cylinder and with either rose or CN escutcheon trim. Pick the 7925 when the opening needs dormitory exit behavior with a deadbolt; pick the 8808FL when the spec calls for classroom function.
19) Behavioral health unit here - is the 8808FL with the Carmel lever acceptable, or do I need anti-ligature trim?
For ligature resistant openings, TownSteel's MRX-L-01 is a Grade 1 heavy duty anti-ligature lever mortise lockset in stainless steel, passage function, for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the MRX-A-01 is the same passage function with satin stainless ligature resistant arch trim. Marks USA offers the 5PDN, a Grade 1 hospital passage mortise push/pull paddleset that is ligature resistant and ADA compliant in satin stainless steel. The Accentra 8808FL uses a Carmel lever on heavy duty escutcheon or rose trim and is a keyed classroom lock, so it suits general commercial and educational openings rather than ligature resistant ones.
20) Can I just add a mortise deadbolt instead of buying the full 8808FL classroom lockset?
A deadbolt alone does not give you classroom function. The Sargent 4874 is a double cylinder mortise deadbolt on a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Kaba Ilco 185 Series is a no-handing mortise deadbolt; the Alarm Lock DL4500 is a Grade 1 electronic mortise deadbolt with 2,000 user codes and a privacy keypad for 1-5/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch doors. None of those provide a latching lever set. The Accentra 8808FL combines a reinforced stainless steel deadbolt with a 3/4 inch throw latchbolt and lever trim on a 2-3/4 inch backset, which is what a classroom opening with a latching door needs.
21) What finish does the Accentra 8808FL come in?
Satin chrome, 626. That is the standard institutional finish and it matches most existing commercial door hardware in schools, healthcare, and offices, so you are unlikely to have a mismatch across a building standardized on 626.
