Schlage A301-402 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Which Schlage A Series locks does the A301-402 cam unit fit?
Three functions: A40, A53 and A85. A40 is the bath and bedroom privacy lock, A53 is the entrance/office lock, and A85 is the hotel and dormitory lock, so if the lock you are servicing is one of those, the A301-402 is the outside cam unit for it. Identify the function code before ordering, because the cam unit is called out by function and not by knob style.
2) Is the Schlage A301-402 a cam lock for a cabinet, or a part that goes inside a door lock?
It goes inside a door lock. The A301-402 is the outside cam unit for a Schlage A Series commercial lock in the A40, A53 or A85 function, so it is a component of that lock rather than a standalone cam lock for a cabinet, drawer or locker. On its own it does nothing; it only has a job inside an A Series lock.
3) Do I have to replace the whole Schlage knob lock, or can I just swap the cam unit?
If the cam is what failed, you replace just that piece. The A301-402 is a Schlage service part, so the lock already hung on the door stays where it is and you rebuild it rather than pulling the whole set. One thing to settle first: this is the outside cam unit, so if the trouble is on the inside half of the lock, a different part is what you need.
4) I have Schlage knobs in a rental property. Is the A301-402 the right cam unit for them?
Only if they are A Series. The A301-402 is a commercial part built for Schlage A Series locks in the A40, A53 and A85 functions. Schlage's residential knob lines are a different platform and this cam unit does not serve them. If you are not sure which is on the door, the series and function code are what to pin down before ordering anything.
5) Does finish matter when ordering a Schlage A Series cam unit?
Match it to the lock you are repairing. A Series service parts are frequently finish specific, so an A301-402 is not a generic piece you can drop into any finish of lock and forget about. Have the finish of the existing lock and the function code (A40, A53 or A85) in hand when you place the order.
