Schlage 09-632N Inside Blank x Lever N Escutcheon

Plate only. The 09-632N is the inside escutcheon for N design lever trim, the face plate itself. The lever, spindle, and the mortise lock case are separate parts and aren't included. Buy it when you're replacing a damaged or mismatched inside plate, or changing the finish on one face of an existing lock rather than replacing the whole lockset. The plate measures 8 x 2-9/16 x 7/16 inches.

Yes. The 09-632N is an L Series escutcheon, so it mounts to L Series mortise locks trimmed with escutcheon plates. It won't help you on a lock set up for rose trim or knobs, and it's the N design specifically, so the lever on that side has to be the matching N trim for the look to line up.

Inside. The 09-632N covers the interior face of the door only. If you're refinishing or repairing both faces of an opening, the outside escutcheon is a second, separate part and has to be ordered in the same finish code so the two sides match. On a job where only the inside plate got damaged, this is the one part you need.

No. The 09-632N inside face is blank, meaning there's no cutout in it for a cylinder or a turn piece. It's for inside trim that's lever only, which is what most free-egress functions use on the room side. If the inside of your opening needs a turn or a keyed cylinder, you need a different L Series escutcheon prepped for it, not this plate.

Depends on the footprint you're covering. The N escutcheon gives you 8 x 2-9/16 inches of face coverage and stands 7/16 off the door. Measure the old plate's outline and any exposed prep against those two face numbers before you order. On a narrow stile door the 2-9/16 figure is the one to check first, since that's what has to sit inside the stile.

Nine finishes, all called out by BHMA number so you can match existing hardware exactly rather than by eye: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 609 antique brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 622 matte black, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, and 630 satin stainless steel. If you're standardizing a building, pull the number off a lever or lock you already have and order the plate in that same code. 626 and 630 are the two you'll most often find already on commercial openings.

Finish is the only selection. The 09-632N is already fixed as the inside plate, blank face, N design, at 8 x 2-9/16 x 7/16 inches, so there's nothing to hand or size. Pick the finish code that matches the rest of the trim on the opening and that's the order. If you also need the outside face done, add the matching outside escutcheon in the same code.
