Corbin Russwin ML20915-LL ML2000 Series Fail Secure Electrified Mortise Lock Body, Both Grips Locked When Not Energized, Lever x Lever
Grade 1 Electrified Mortise Lock Body for High-Traffic Commercial Applications
The Corbin Russwin ML20915-LL is a Grade 1 electrified fail secure mortise lock body from the ML2000 Series, engineered for demanding commercial, institutional, industrial, and government environments. In fail secure operation, both grips are locked when the lock is not energized, and the latchbolt is operable by grip from either side only when the lock is energized; the latchbolt remains operable by key outside when not energized. Constructed of heavy-gauge steel with a 1" stainless steel deadbolt and patented Quick Reversible latchbolt, this lock body is designed for 1-3/4" (44mm) standard door thickness with field-reversible handing. The auxiliary latch deadlocks the latchbolt for added security, and the unit draws 500mA Peak and 15mA Holding current.
