PDQ GT173 Grade 1 Time Out Cylindrical Lever Lock

Grade 1 Heavy Duty Commercial Cylindrical Lock

The PDQ GT173 is the Time Out function of the PDQ GT Series Grade 1 Heavy Duty Cylindrical Lock.

The PDQ GT Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical lock certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.2. PDQ positions it as its general purpose Grade 1 lock for everyday commercial exterior and interior openings, with lever torque resistance of 2,200 lbf-in, three times the BHMA/ANSI standard, and cycle testing to over 3 times BHMA standards.

A heavy duty diecast chassis, machined billet steel spindles and a 13 gauge steel anti-rotation plate on the secure side give the lock its strength. A 2:1 latchbolt throw allows a 41 degree lever rotation, which reduces torque and extends the life of the lock. The GT is non-handed, assembled in Lancaster, PA, and offered in Philadelphia, Boston and Miami lever styles.

PDQ GT173BSN626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Time Out function on the PDQ GT173 lever lock actually do?
Time Out is a non-keyed function, so there is no cylinder and no key in the lock. On the GT173 both levers are always free to retract the latch; it is the GT Series function used where you want lever trim and a latch for door control without any locking. If you need the opening to lock, you need a keyed function from the GT Series instead of the 173.
2) Will the PDQ GT173 fit a 2 inch thick door, or only 1-3/4 inch?
It covers 1-3/4 inch through 2-1/4 inch doors and ships preset for 1-3/4 inch, which is the standard commercial thickness. Thicker doors are handled on site with the through-door thru-bolting. The prep is standard ANSI A156.115 (161) cylindrical, so it drops into an existing 161 bore.
3) Is the PDQ GT173 approved for a fire rated door?
Yes. The GT is UL 10C listed for 3 hour fire doors on single doors up to 4 feet by 8 feet, and it is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Grade 1. For fire openings a dust box (DB) is often called for in the jamb prep, and that is an available option.
4) Can the PDQ GT173 go on an exterior door in a coastal or Florida hurricane zone?
Yes. The GT is approved for Florida HVHZ under PDQ Product Approval FL 21376, with a design load of plus or minus 70.0 PSF on a 3 by 7 foot single door. For salt air exposure, the weatherized finish option is offered on 626 Satin Chrome only.
5) Do I have to specify handing when ordering the PDQ GT173?
No. The GT Series cylindrical lock is non-handed, so one lock works on a left or right hand door, inswing or outswing. Nothing to field-reverse.
6) Is the PDQ GT173 ADA compliant for a school or office corridor door?
Yes, it complies with ADA and ICC/ANSI 117.1. The lever design plus the 2:1 latchbolt throw means only 41 degrees of lever rotation at the 2-3/4 inch backset, so it operates with very little effort. For visually impaired signalling you can add tactile abrasive coating inside only, outside only, or both sides.
7) Which lever styles and finishes does the PDQ GT173 come in?
Three lever styles, Philadelphia, Boston and Miami, each in seven finishes: 605 Bright Brass, 606 Satin Brass, 613E Dark Oxidized Satin Bronze, 619 Satin Nickel, 622 Flat Black, 625 Bright Chrome and 626 Satin Chrome. All 21 combinations are orderable, for example GT173PHL605. If you are matching two sides of a door to different schedules, the SF split finish option lets you specify outside trim first, then inside.
8) Will the PDQ GT173 hold up in a high traffic school or does it need the heavier XGT?
The GT is the general purpose Grade 1 heavy duty lock and handles standard to heavy commercial traffic, with 2,200 lbf-in of lever torque resistance, three times the BHMA/ANSI minimum, and cycle testing to over three times BHMA. Strength comes from a diecast chassis, machined billet steel spindles and a 13 gauge steel anti-rotation plate. PDQ reserves the XGT, at 3,000 lbf-in, for openings facing extreme abuse or vandalism.
9) Can the PDQ GT173 be used on a pair of doors?
Yes, with the right latch. Standard lever rotation is 41 degrees using the 2-3/4 inch backset; PDQ lists a 65 degree rotation with the 2-3/4 inch latch for double doors. Call out the double door application when you order so the correct latch goes in the box.
10) What options should I be adding to a PDQ GT173 order for a hospital or X-ray room?
Two are relevant. The LL lead-lined rose is available for radiology and imaging rooms, and the AM antimicrobial coating covers the inside and outside lever and rose, offered on 626 Satin Chrome only. Both are selected at the time of order along with backset and strike.
11) Does the PDQ GT173 offer a request to exit switch for an access control system?
Yes. REX request to exit is an available option, and an ISMC industry standard Molex connector can be specified for the wiring tie-in. The lock itself is mechanical, not electronic, so REX is a monitoring signal back to the access control panel rather than electrified locking.
12) What does the faceplate on the PDQ GT173 measure and is it beveled?
The front is 2-1/4 x 1-1/8 inches in stainless steel or wrought brass, beveled 1/8 inch in 2 inches. That is with the 2-3/4 inch backset; the 2-3/8 inch backset option uses a 2-1/4 x 1 inch faceplate. The rose is 3-3/8 inch diameter wrought brass with concealed screws.
