Schlage 47273625 ALX Series Deadlatch, 2-3/8" Backset, 1" x 2-1/4" Round Corner,

It is the replacement latch for Schlage ALX Series cylindrical levers, and it mates to the lock trim rather than to a particular decorative style. The catalog lists its compatibility as lock trim on the ALX Series, so if the chassis on the door is an ALX, this is the latch that goes back into it. It is sold as a replacement part, so it ships as the latch unit alone, not as a complete lockset.

It is a spring latch with a restoring dead latch action, meaning the small auxiliary plunger beside the main latch bolt holds the bolt from being pushed back when the door is closed and the plunger is depressed by the strike. That is what makes it acceptable on an exterior or corridor opening rather than a closet door. For the deadlatching to actually work, the plunger has to land on the strike face and not drop into the strike opening, so the strike alignment matters as much as the latch itself.

Square cam. The latch is driven by a square retractor, so it pairs with an ALX chassis that turns a square drive. A chassis built around a round or flat blade drive will not pick this latch up, and forcing a mismatch is the usual reason a rebuilt lever spins without pulling the bolt.

The Deltana G1RLE238 is a Grade 1 regular latch with an entry function and a 2-3/8 inch backset, which matches the backset dimension of the Schlage ALX Series springlatch. Both are latch units intended to sit in the same 2-3/8 inch bore-to-edge prep. The Schlage part is a stainless steel springlatch made for ALX Series lock trim, so if you are keeping ALX levers on the door, the Schlage part stays with its own trim; the Deltana is the choice when the trim is being replaced along with the latch.

A 2-3/4 inch backset opening takes a different latch entirely, not a shimmed 2-3/8. The Deltana G1RLE275 is a Grade 1 regular latch, entry function, with a 2-3/4 inch backset. For a non-keyed opening at the same backset, the Deltana G1RLP275 is the Grade 1 regular latch in passage/privacy at 2-3/4 inch. Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore before ordering; that dimension is what separates the two.

No. The Lockey M230 is a mechanical keyless digital combination deadlocking spring latch lock with an adjustable backset, meaning it is a complete lockset with its own access control, not a latch that drops into existing trim. The Schlage 47273625 is a stainless steel replacement part that works with ALX Series lock trim. Order the Schlage part when the ALX lever assembly stays on the door and only the latch is being changed; the M230 is for openings where the entire lock is being converted to keyless entry, and it fits doors 1-1/8 to 2 inches thick.

Use the Dexter Grade 1 Deadlatch for C1000 Series, part DEXC1000-DL-630, which carries a Grade 2 rating. Latches are matched to the lock family they serve: the Schlage 47273625 is an ALX Series springlatch built to work with ALX lock trim, so it goes on ALX levers, and the Dexter unit goes into C1000 chassis. Identify the lock family stamped on the existing chassis before ordering either one.

A sidelite takes a purpose-built auxiliary latch, not a lockset latch. The Accentra YSSL10 is a security sidelite auxiliary latch with an ADA compliant thumbturn, fire rated, for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Schlage 47273625 is a commercial springlatch that works with ALX Series lock trim, so it belongs in the active leaf where the lever is mounted. On a glass front entry with a fixed sidelite panel, expect to order both: the sidelite latch for the panel and the lockset latch for the operating leaf.

Built for commercial use and made of stainless steel, so it holds up in corridor and entry traffic where a plated steel residential latch tends to gall or corrode. Stainless also matters on exterior openings and in wash-down or coastal buildings, where the latch is the part that seizes first.

Ten finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 609 antique brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 619 satin nickel, 622 matte black, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, and 643E aged bronze. Only the faceplate shows once the latch is installed, so order the code that matches the lever and the strike. If a building is standardized on 626 satin chrome, that is the one to stock for the fleet.

The Schlage ALX latch only goes back into an ALX chassis. For a non-Schlage rebuild, ZenSupply carries the Deltana Grade 1 regular latch line in both common backsets and split by function: G1RLE238 and G1RLE275 for entry, and G1RLP238 and G1RLP275 for passage or privacy. Pick the function to match how the door is used, because an entry latch and a passage latch are not interchangeable in a keyed opening. For Dexter C1000 Series locks, the matching part is the Dexter C1000 Series deadlatch, listed as Grade 2.

No. It is a replacement latch for an ALX cylindrical lock chassis and has no independent locking or operating hardware of its own. For a sidelite auxiliary latch, the Accentra YSSL10 security sidelite auxiliary latch with ADA compliant thumbturn is the part for that job, listed for 1-3/4 inch doors and fire rated. If what you actually want is a self-contained keyless lock rather than a latch, the Lockey M230 mechanical combination deadlocking spring latch lock has an adjustable backset and covers 1-1/8 to 2 inch doors.

No. Schlage sells the ALX latch as a standalone replacement part, so a worn or bound latch can be swapped without pulling the lever, rose, or cylinder. That keeps the existing keying intact, which is the point when a building is master keyed and you only need the door to latch again. Match the finish to the existing faceplate and confirm the chassis takes a square cam drive.

Yes. The Deltana G1RLP238 is a Grade 1 regular latch in a passage/privacy function at a 2-3/8 inch backset, and the G1RLP275 is the same latch at 2-3/4 inch. Those are the ones to specify for openings with no cylinder. The entry-function counterparts are the G1RLE238 and G1RLE275, also Grade 1. Function and backset are the two decisions; pick the passage/privacy version for interior openings and match the backset to the existing bore.

The Deltana regular latches all carry Grade 1: the G1RLE238 and G1RLE275 in entry function at 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inch backsets, and the G1RLP238 and G1RLP275 in passage/privacy at the same two backsets. The Dexter deadlatch for C1000 Series is rated Grade 2. That gives a facility two functions and two backsets within one Grade 1 latch family, which is what standardizing across a building usually requires.

The Accentra YSSL10 security sidelite auxiliary latch is fire rated and fits 1-3/4 inch doors, with an ADA compliant thumbturn. That combination of fire rating and ADA thumbturn is what an institutional or healthcare specification usually calls out on a sidelite opening. For the swinging leaf itself, the Deltana Grade 1 regular latches cover entry with the G1RLE238 and G1RLE275 and passage/privacy with the G1RLP238 and G1RLP275.
