Corbin Russwin ML2055-LL Classroom Mortise Lockbody, Grade 1, ANSI F05, Field Reversible
Heavy-Duty Commercial Classroom Mortise Lock with Patented Quick Reversible Latchbolt
The Corbin Russwin ML2055-LL is a Grade 1 classroom mortise lockbody from the ML2000 Series, engineered to meet the rigorous demands of high-traffic commercial, institutional, industrial, and government applications. Conforming to ANSI function F05, this lockbody allows the latchbolt to be operated by grip from either side unless the outside grip is locked by key, at which point the latchbolt is operated by key only — while the inside grip always remains free. Constructed of heavy-gauge steel with a 1" stainless steel deadbolt and a patented Quick Reversible latchbolt, the ML2055-LL is designed for 1-3/4" (44mm) standard door thickness and features field-reversible handing for flexible installation. The ML2000 Series has been UL cycle tested above and beyond standard requirements, completing over 14.5 Million Cycles (Verification ID: V875753), making it an ideal choice for offices, schools, hospitals, hotels, and other demanding high-use environments.
