Schlage 13-047 Dead Latch (Guarded), With 2-1/4" x 1-1/8" Square Corner Faceplate, 2-3/4" Backset, 1" Housing Diameter, For Use With ND Series (Before January 31, 2017)

The 13-047 is the guarded deadlatch for Schlage ND Series cylindrical locks manufactured before January 31, 2017. That date is the dividing line, not the lever style or the function of the lock, so the age of the chassis decides which latch you order. It is a genuine Schlage replacement part, so it engages a pre-2017 ND chassis the same way the original did. If you are buying for a building, pull one existing latch first and compare it against what came out.

Measure from the edge of the door to the center of the bore hole. Cylindrical locks use two standard backsets: 2-3/8 inches, common on residential openings, and 2-3/4 inches, which is what commercial prep usually gets. The 13-047 is the 2-3/4 inch version. On a 2-3/8 inch prep it will not sit right and the bolt will not reach the strike, so measure before you order a quantity of them.

Latch only. The 13-047 is the latch unit and its faceplate, sold as a replacement part for ND Series locks. No lever, no rose, no cylinder, and no strike plate comes with it. It is the right part when the lever itself is fine but the door will not stay latched, the bolt is dragging or sticking, or the faceplate has been chewed up. If the chassis or the cylinder is the problem, this will not fix it.

Guarded refers to the small deadlocking plunger sitting alongside the main spring latch. With the door shut, that plunger is held in by the strike, which blocks the latchbolt from being pushed back with a card or a shim. It only does its job if the plunger lands on the solid face of the strike rather than dropping into the strike opening, so if the door has settled or the strike has been shifted, the anti-shim protection is gone even though the door still latches. Worth checking the alignment while the latch is out.

The faceplate is the only part of the latch anyone sees once the door is hung, and it sits on the door edge next to the hinges and across from the strike, not next to the lever. Match it to that edge hardware. Four finishes are offered: 625 bright chrome, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 612 satin bronze, and 606 satin brass. If the openings in a building were originally specified in one finish, ordering all the latches in that finish keeps the edges consistent even where levers have been swapped over the years.

No. Latches are matched to the chassis that retracts them, and the 13-047 is the Schlage part for ND Series. The Deltana G1RLE275 is a Grade 1 entry latch at 2-3/4 inch backset and the Dexter deadlatch is built for that brand's C1000 Series, so each belongs with its own maker's lockset even where the backset happens to line up. Backset matching alone does not make a latch interchangeable.

The 13-047 serves ND Series locks and nothing else, so a different opening needs a different part. For a glass front sidelite, the Accentra YSSL10 security sidelite auxiliary latch is made for 1-3/4 inch doors, is fire rated, and has an ADA compliant thumbturn. For a door you want to run keyless, the Lockey M230 is a mechanical combination deadlocking spring latch lock with an adjustable backset that covers 1-1/8 to 2 inch door thicknesses, so it suits an opening where the existing thickness is not standard.

Stainless steel construction, and it is a commercial part rather than a residential one, which is the right build for a corridor, stairwell, or tenant entry that cycles all day. Stainless also holds up better than plated steel on an exterior edge or anywhere the door edge sees moisture and cleaning chemicals. It is the factory Schlage latch for ND Series, so you are replacing like for like rather than downgrading the opening.

The Schlage 13-047 is a certified Schlage replacement part matched to the ND Series chassis, so it is the latch that indexes to that lock body and its finishes are ordered in Schlage codes such as 626 family equivalents 625 bright chrome, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 612 satin bronze and 606 satin brass. The Deltana regular latches are sold as standalone latches by backset and function rather than as parts matched to a lock chassis, for example the G1RLE275 Grade 1 regular latch in entry function at 2-3/4 inch backset. The Dexter deadlatch is built for the Dexter C1000 series. If the chassis in the door is an ND, the 13-047 is the part that belongs to it; the others belong to the lock lines they were built around.

Both Deltana latches are Grade 1 regular latches at 2-3/4 inch backset, and the split between them is function. The G1RLE275 is the entry latch, intended for keyed openings. The G1RLP275 is the passage or privacy latch, intended for openings with no key cylinder, such as an office or restroom door driven by a thumbturn or by nothing at all. Pick by what the opening has to do; the backset is the same either way. The Schlage 13-047 is a different animal from both - it is the Schlage replacement latch for an ND Series chassis rather than a standalone latch specified by function.

No, they sit at different levels of the job. The Lockey M230 is a complete mechanical keyless digital combination deadlocking spring latch lock with an adjustable backset, and it fits doors 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch thick, so buying it means replacing the lock and the way the door is operated. The Schlage 13-047 is a replacement latch for an ND Series lock, so the lever, chassis and keying already on the door stay exactly as they are and only the latch changes. If the existing ND lock is fine and the latch is the worn item, the 13-047 is the part; if you are moving that opening to keyless combination entry, the M230 is a lock, not a latch swap.

They solve different problems. The Accentra YSSL10 is a security sidelite auxiliary latch with an ADA compliant thumbturn, it fits a 1-3/4 inch door and it carries a fire rating, so it is specified for the narrow sidelite panel next to an entrance rather than for the leaf that carries the lockset. The Schlage 13-047 is the latch inside an ND Series lock on the active door. On a glass front entrance with a sidelite, those two can end up on the same opening doing separate jobs; one does not stand in for the other.

Latches follow the lock chassis, so a mixed portfolio needs more than one line item. Doors running a Schlage ND lock take the Schlage 13-047, a stainless steel commercial replacement latch built for that series. Doors running a Dexter C1000 lock take the Dexter deadlatch made for the C1000 series. Doors with a standalone latch prep are covered by the Deltana Grade 1 regular latches, which are ordered by backset and function - G1RLE238 and G1RLE275 for entry at 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inch, G1RLP238 and G1RLP275 for passage or privacy at the same two backsets. Walk the property once, record the lock series on each door, and stock against that list.

The Deltana regular latches are the ones published with a Grade 1 rating: G1RLE238 and G1RLE275 in entry function, and G1RLP238 and G1RLP275 in passage or privacy function, split by 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backset. The Dexter deadlatch for the C1000 series is published at Grade 2. On the Schlage side, the 13-047 is the factory replacement latch for the ND Series chassis, so the grade that governs that opening is the one the ND lockset itself was certified to, not a separately graded loose latch.

The lock line each one belongs to. The Dexter part is a deadlatch built for the Dexter C1000 series and is published at Grade 2. The Schlage 13-047 is the ND Series spring latch, a stainless steel commercial replacement part, and it is ordered in Schlage finish codes - 625 bright chrome, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 612 satin bronze and 606 satin brass - so the latch face matches the lever trim already on the door. Neither crosses over: identify the lock chassis first, then order the latch that belongs to it.
