Kaba Ilco BR Series Glass Door Bottom Rail Lock with 1 5/32 Inch Mortise Cylinder

The Kaba Ilco BR Series Glass Door Bottom Rail Lock is a mechanical lock designed for installation in the bottom rail or in the patch fitting of an all-glass door, making it well suited for frameless glass entry systems commonly found in commercial storefront construction. The bolt on this lock is retracted by a 1 5/32" (29.35 mm) mortise cylinder with a standard cam, which allows the lock to be paired with compatible storefront mortise cylinders already in use across many commercial door hardware systems. This lock is offered in two model configurations, BRL-01 and BRL-03, each sized to accommodate specific glass door bottom rail or patch fitting dimensions. As a component within the Multi-Point Lock Trim product subgroup and Mortise Locks product type, the BR Series is positioned for commercial applications where dependable, serviceable glass door security is required.

Kaba Ilco BRL-01 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What kind of lock is the Kaba Ilco BR Series bottom rail lock, and where does it go on an all-glass door?
The BR Series is a deadbolt lock body that mortises into the bottom rail of an all-glass door, or into the patch fitting at the bottom of the glass. It is not a lock you fit into a door edge with a lever or trim, and it isn't for a hollow metal or wood opening. The bolt is thrown and retracted by a mortise cylinder, so the door is locked with a key rather than a thumbturn or handle. This is the lock you use when a frameless glass entrance has to lock down into the floor.
2) What is a mortise deadbolt alternative when the door is a framed door instead of an all-glass door?
The Kaba Ilco BR Series bottom rail lock is built to be installed in the bottom rail or patch fitting of an all-glass door, with the bolt retracted by a 1-5/32 inch mortise cylinder using a standard cam. On a conventional framed door prepped for a standard mortise pocket, the Sargent 4874 is a mortise deadbolt with a 2-3/4 inch backset and a double cylinder function, so it is keyed from both sides rather than driven from a rail-mounted body.
3) Does the BR Series bottom rail lock come with a cylinder or a strike?
The BR Series is sold as the lock body. The mortise cylinder that operates the bolt is a separate order, and it has to be 1-5/32 inch with a standard cam. Budget for the floor strike or threshold keeper as well, since the bolt drops down into the floor on an all-glass opening. If you are keying a whole storefront, order the cylinders to your existing keyway at the same time.
4) Do I need a different lock for the glass door if I want keypad or card access?
The BR Series is mechanical, key-operated through a mortise cylinder, with no electronic option. If you need code or credential entry on the opening, that is a different product family: Dormakaba's E-Plex 2066 pushbutton mortise lock is built for wide stile doors, and the Alarm Lock DL1300NW Trilogy Networx wireless mortise lock is made to work with Adams Rite deadlatches on storefront-type doors.
5) Which mortise lock should be used on a wide stile door with an electronic pushbutton instead of a keyed bottom rail lock?
The Kaba Ilco BR Series is a keyed bottom rail lock operated by a 1-5/32 inch mortise cylinder. Where keyless entry is wanted on a wide stile door, the Dormakaba E-Plex 2066 is an electronic pushbutton keyless mortise lock listed for wide stile, so credentials are codes at the door rather than a cylinder and key.
6) What is the difference between the BR Series bottom rail lock and a mortise thumbturn like the Sargent 130KB?
The Sargent 130KB is a standard duty mortise thumbturn from the 8200 Series - it is the inside turn piece that operates a lock body, not a lock body itself. The Kaba Ilco BR Series is the complete bottom rail lock body for an all-glass door, with the bolt retracted by a 1-5/32 inch mortise cylinder with a standard cam. Ordering a thumbturn when the rail needs a lock body leaves the opening with no bolt.
7) For a school entrance that needs classroom function keying, what mortise lock is used instead of a glass door bottom rail lock?
The Kaba Ilco BR Series is a bottom rail lock for all-glass doors and is operated by a mortise cylinder only. Classroom function on a framed 1-3/4 inch door is covered by the Corbin Russwin ML2003, a Grade 1 mortise classroom lockset in the ML2000 Series, or the Cal-Royal NM8070 heavy duty Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch. Both carry lever trim and a classroom function the rail lock does not offer.
8) Is there an electronic equivalent to a glass door rail lock for storefront deadlatch applications?
The Alarm Lock DL1300NW Trilogy Networx wireless electronic mortise lock with keypad is built for Adams Rite deadlatches, which is the storefront style narrow stile prep. The Kaba Ilco BR Series takes a different approach to a glass opening: it mounts in the bottom rail or patch fitting and is retracted by a 1-5/32 inch mortise cylinder. One puts credentials on the stile, the other puts a keyed bolt in the rail.
9) What is the closest option when an all-glass door opening needs card or mobile credentials rather than a key?
The Kaba Ilco BR Series bottom rail lock is cylinder operated. Where the opening can accept a mortise lockset instead, the Dormakaba LX-I-M002 Saffire is an electronic RFID mortise lockset with BLE mobile access at BHMA Grade 2, and the Dormakaba E-Plex E5086 is a Grade 1 back to back electronic pushbutton and card mortise lock with entry/egress function. Both replace the key with a credential at the door, but both need a mortise lockset prep rather than a bottom rail.
10) Is the Ilco BR glass door lock rated for commercial use?
It's a commercial product, sold for storefront and all-glass entrance work rather than residential doors. It's the bottom rail deadbolt on a frameless glass door, the kind of opening you find on a retail front or an office lobby.
