PDQ GT175 Grade 1 Hospital / Privacy Cylindrical Lever Lock

Grade 1 Heavy Duty Commercial Cylindrical Lock

The PDQ GT175 is the Hospital / Privacy 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 GT175BSN626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the hospital/privacy function on the PDQ GT175 actually do?
The GT175 is the hospital/privacy function of the PDQ GT Series cylindrical lever lock, and it is non-keyed. There is no cylinder and no key: the inside lever locks the door for privacy, and it is released from the outside without a key, which is why this function goes on patient rooms, exam rooms, restrooms and resident rooms where staff must get in without hunting for a key.
2) Will the PDQ GT175 fit a 2-inch thick door, or only 1-3/4 inch?
Doors from 1-3/4 inches up to 2-1/4 inches thick are covered. The lock ships preset for a 1-3/4 inch door and is adjusted from there, and it mounts with through-door thru-bolting, so a 2 inch wood or metal door is within range with no special kit.
3) Can the GT175 go into an existing 161 cylindrical door prep?
Yes. The GT Series uses the standard ANSI A156.115 (161) cylindrical prep, so it drops into any door already bored for a commercial cylindrical lockset. Backset is 2-3/4 inches standard with a 2-3/8 inch option, so match the option to the existing cross-bore centerline rather than re-boring the door.
4) Is the PDQ GT175 approved for a 3-hour fire rated door?
Yes. The GT Series is UL 10C listed for 3 hour fire doors on single doors up to 4 feet by 8 feet, and the lock is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Grade 1. It also complies with ADA and ICC/ANSI 117.1, which covers the lever operation requirement on accessible openings.
5) Which options should a healthcare facility add to the GT175 order?
Three matter in a hospital or clinic. Antimicrobial coating (AM) covers the inside and outside lever and rose, and it is only offered on 626 satin chrome. A lead-lined rose (LL) is the one to specify on imaging and X-ray room doors. A dust box (DB) keeps debris out of the strike pocket in a hollow metal frame. Tactile abrasive coating is also available inside only, outside only, or both sides for hazardous-room marking.
6) Do I need to specify handing when ordering the PDQ GT175?
No handing to specify. The GT is non-handed, so one lock covers left and right hand openings. That matters for a property manager or MRO stockroom keeping spares, since a single part number covers every door in the building.
7) What finishes and lever styles can I get the PDQ GT175 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. Each comes in all three lever styles, Philadelphia, Boston and Miami, so a GT175 in satin chrome with a Boston lever orders as GT175BSN626. Split finishes (SF) are available if the corridor side has to match a different finish than the room side, designating outside trim first.
8) Is the GT175 tough enough for a school restroom or high-traffic corridor door?
It is built for that duty. The GT Series carries Grade 1 heavy duty certification with 2,200 lbf-in of lever torque resistance, three times the BHMA/ANSI minimum, a diecast chassis, machined billet steel spindles and a 13 gauge steel anti-rotation plate on the secure side. PDQ only pushes up to the XGT at 3,000 lbf-in for openings facing extreme abuse or vandalism.
9) Can I use the PDQ GT175 on an exterior door in a Florida hurricane zone?
Yes, the GT Series is approved for Florida HVHZ installations 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. A weatherized finish option is available for exposed openings, but only on 626 satin chrome.
10) Does the GT175 work on a pair of doors?
Standard lever rotation is 41 degrees with the 2-3/4 inch backset, which is what the 2:1 latchbolt throw buys you. For double doors, PDQ specifies the 2-3/4 inch latch with 65 degree lever rotation, so flag the pair opening when you order rather than assuming the standard latch clears.
11) Can the GT175 be tied into an access control or monitoring system?
The lock itself is mechanical, not electronic, but two wiring options are on the order form: request to exit (REX) for signaling the lever being turned to an access control panel or alarm shunt, and an industry standard Molex connector (ISMC) for plug-in termination. If you need a truly keyed or credentialed opening, the GT175 is the wrong function since it is non-keyed privacy.
12) What are the faceplate dimensions on the PDQ GT175 latch and the rose diameter?
The latch front is 2-1/4 by 1-1/8 inches in stainless steel or wrought brass, beveled 1/8 inch in 2 inches, on the 2-3/4 inch backset latch; the 2-3/8 inch backset latch uses a 2-1/4 by 1 inch faceplate. The rose is 3-3/8 inch diameter wrought brass with concealed screws, which is worth checking against the wear ring or paint shadow left by the lock you are replacing.
