Schlage A501-615 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Schlage A501-615 spindle wedge, and which Schlage locks does it fit?
The A501-615 is a Schlage spindle wedge, and one part number covers three lock families: A Series A80 and A85, AL Series AL80 and AL85, and H Series H180 and H185. It is a certified Schlage part rather than a generic aftermarket wedge, and it is the wedge itself, not a complete spindle assembly.
2) Will the A501-615 spindle wedge work in a Schlage A53PD or another function that is not an 80 or 85?
No. Schlage calls the A501-615 wedge out for the A80 and A85, AL80 and AL85, and H180 and H185 functions. If the lock in your door is a different function, this is not the wedge specified for it, and you should order the part called out for that function instead.
3) I maintain a building with both Schlage A Series and AL Series knob locks. Do I need a different spindle wedge for each?
One wedge covers both. The A501-615 is specified for A80/85, AL80/85 and H180/185, so a mixed fleet of those functions is a single line on the order rather than three separate parts. That matters more when you are stocking a maintenance shop than when you are fixing one door.
4) Can I replace a worn spindle wedge without changing out the whole Schlage lock?
That is what the part exists for. The A501-615 is a replacement part for A80/85, AL80/85 and H180/185 locks, so a failed wedge is a parts-level repair. The lock chassis, trim and existing keying stay in the door.
5) Do I need to match a finish when ordering a Schlage spindle wedge, or is A501 enough?
Give the full designation. Many Schlage parts in this family are finish specific, and the wedge carries the full number A501-615, not plain A501. Quoting the base number alone risks pulling a part built for a different finish, so order and cross-reference against the complete designation.
6) Is the Schlage A501-615 wedge a commercial part or is it for residential Schlage hardware?
Commercial. The A501-615 is a commercial door hardware part, and the locks it serves, the Schlage A, AL and H Series cylindrical locks, are commercial lines rather than the residential knob and lever sets sold at retail.
