Schlage ALX SERIES OVERVIEW

The proven AL Series has evolved to ALX

As a Grade 2 lock, the AL Series has always offered a combination of strength and durability alongside Schlage trusted key system options at a price point favorable to any application. Though these qualities remain, the lock has changed. ALX Series' features now deliver flexibility and value beyond strength and security. X Factor qualities, born from modular design, define a lock that exceeds expectations. AL Series' evolution to the ALX Series is a revolution in lock design.

Why modular design is important

The Schlage ALX Series gives you the ability to use it as you would any other lock: ordered and delivered as a complete, configured product ready for installation. However, in its new modular design, ALX Series offers you the flexibility to utilize the separate components of chassis, function and lever packaged kits to create a lock to meet your needs on demand. So whether you are a distributor wanting to offer same day pickup on configured locks in uncommon levers and finishes, a locksmith wanting truck stock solutions that eliminate call backs, or a facility manager wanting to repurpose rooms and change lock functions without the expense of new hardware, ALX Series can work for you.

Schlage ALX50P SPA 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What exactly does the Schlage ALX50 entrance/office function do when someone pushes the inside button?
Pressing the inside push button locks the outside lever. From there a key retracts the latch from outside, or turning the inside lever unlocks it and releases the button. The inside lever is always free, so anyone in the room can walk out without unlocking anything first. That is the ANSI F82 entrance/office function, with a deadlatch behind the latchbolt so the latch cannot be carded.
2) Do I have to order the Schlage ALX50 left hand or right hand?
Neither. The ALX50 is non-handed, so one lock covers both swings. Handing only matters for the latch faceplate corner, and that is a square or round corner choice, not a hand.
3) What is the difference between the B, J, L and P cylinder options on the Schlage ALX50?
They decide what goes in the key side. P is a complete conventional 6-pin cylinder in the Schlage C keyway, ready to key. L ships less a conventional cylinder, so you supply and install your own. B is prepped for a small format interchangeable core and ships less core. J is prepped for a Schlage full size interchangeable core and ships less core. Pick B or J if your building is already on an IC core system and you core it yourself; pick P if you want the lock keyed and finished as delivered.
4) Can I get several Schlage ALX50 locks keyed alike so one key opens all of them?
Yes. Keying is chosen on the order: keyed different is the standard, and keyed alike is available for a run of locks that need to share one key. If you are matching an existing key system, there is a key code field to enter your code. Keyed alike only applies to the cylinder options that come with a cylinder; if you order a less-core or less-cylinder version you key it yourself.
5) Can I put my existing Corbin or Yale style cylinders in a Schlage ALX50 instead of rekeying to Schlage?
The ALX chassis accepts all Schlage cylinders plus five competitive cylinder formats, so an existing non-Schlage key system can often carry over. Order the L option (less conventional cylinder) or the B/J less-core options and fit your own cylinder or core. If you want the highest security tier, the ALX takes Primus XP cylinders, which are UL 437 listed.
6) Is the Schlage ALX50 approved for a fire rated door, and does it meet ADA?
Fire door use is covered: the ALX locks are UL and cUL listed for 3 hour A label fire doors up to 4 x 8 or 4 x 10 single doors and 8 x 8 pairs, and 90 minutes on 8 x 10 pairs when specified with the 3/4 inch Grade 1 latch option. The series meets ADA requirements, is tested and certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.2-2011 Series 4000 Grade 2, and complies with Florida Building Code and Miami Dade hurricane requirements. For California Referenced Standards Code, levers with a return to door of 1/2 inch or less comply.
7) I need to standardize a building on one lever design. Can I mix Schlage ALX50 entrance locks with other functions and keep the same look?
Yes. The ALX Series runs one chassis across all functions, so the Sparta lever and its rose stay identical whether the opening gets an ALX50 entrance/office, an ALX10 passage, an ALX40 privacy, an ALX44 hospital privacy, an ALX70 classroom, an ALX80 storeroom, an ALX53 entrance, or ALX170/ALX172 dummy trim. The ALX levers also suite with Schlage ND Series Grade 1 locks, so heavier traffic openings can step up to Grade 1 without breaking the lever match across the building.
8) Which lock should I use if the room needs to stay locked at all times instead of an office that gets unlocked in the morning?
Not the ALX50. Its push button means someone can leave the outside lever unlocked, which is what you want on an office and wrong for a supply room or IT closet. For always locked, use a storeroom function, where the outside lever is permanently locked and only a key retracts the latch: the ALX80 (ANSI F86) is the storeroom version in the same series with the same Sparta lever and cylinder options. Other storeroom levers ZenSupply stocks include the Hager 2580 and the Cal-Royal AG05, both Grade 2. For a classroom, where the outside lever is locked and unlocked by key only from outside, the ALX70 (F84) is the one.
9) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to the Schlage ALX50 Sparta entrance lock?
The Falcon B511CP6D is the nearest match: a Grade 2 cylindrical lever lock with Entrance/Office function, the same grade and function the ALX50 carries. The Dexter C1000 entry/office lever is the same Entrance/Office function in a Grade 1 chassis with a 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range, so it steps up in grade while keeping the function. Cal-Royal AUS00 also offers Entrance/Office, at Grade 3, with a 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range.
10) I need an entrance lever that keys to Schlage C without buying Schlage. What are my options?
The Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever ships with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different on a 2-3/8 inch backset, and the Arrow MK33-BD-CS asylum-function lock uses a conventional cylinder in Schlage C keyway as well. The ALX50 itself is offered with a P conventional 6-pin C keyway cylinder, so all three drop into an existing C-keyway master system. Note the AG00 is a 2-3/8 inch backset part while the ALX50 ships standard on a 2-3/4 inch backset latch.
11) The opening is a heavy-traffic corridor door and Grade 2 will not meet the spec. What replaces the ALX50 at Grade 1?
The Dexter C1000 entry/office lever holds the same Entrance/Office function at Grade 1, with clutching keyed operation and a 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range that overlaps the 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch range the ALX50 accommodates. For openings that need Grade 1 in a thicker door, the Corbin Russwin CL3100 Series vandal resistant lever is Grade 1 and fire rated over a 1-3/4 to 2 inch door thickness range, though it is passage/closet function rather than keyed.
12) Classroom door instead of an office. Is the ALX50 right, or is there a better fit?
The ALX50 is Entrance/Office function with an inside push button, which is not classroom operation. The Cal-Royal AG03 is a Grade 2 classroom lever on a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different with a 2-3/4 inch backset, matching the 2-3/4 inch backset the ALX50 ships on. The Dexter C1000 classroom lever is the same function at Grade 1 with clutching, and the C1000 classroom security version adds inside keyed control.
13) What is Vandlgard on the Schlage ALX, and can I turn it off?
Vandlgard lets the outside lever rotate freely when the lock is locked, so the lever gives instead of transmitting force into the chassis when someone hangs on it or kicks it. On the ALX it is field selectable and field reversible, so one lock covers both a high abuse corridor where you want the clutching action and an opening where you want the locked lever to stay rigid. No separate part number, and you can change it after installation.
14) Is a Grade 2 lock like the Schlage ALX50 enough for a commercial office door, or should I be buying Grade 1?
Grade 2 is the right call for offices, tenant suites and interior commercial doors with normal traffic, and the ALX50 is built past the minimum for it: stainless steel latchbolt, Grade 1 compression springs, and a deep drawn spindle with five points of lever engagement to stop lever droop. It is rated heavy duty and certified to A156.2 Series 4000 Grade 2. Save Grade 1 for main entrances, stairwells and high abuse public openings; in that range ZenSupply carries the Falcon T Series and K Series, the Corbin Russwin CL3100 Series, and the Dexter C1000 Series, all Grade 1 cylindrical locks. The Dexter C1000 Entry/Office is the closest Grade 1 match to this same function.
15) What else could I buy instead of the Schlage ALX50 for a Grade 2 entrance/office lever?
Closest like for like is the Falcon B511CP6D, a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical lever in the same entrance/office function. Hager's 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial entry lever covering 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors. If budget matters more than grade, the Cal-Royal AUS00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office lever for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. Where the ALX50 separates itself is the field selectable function and Vandlgard, the interchangeable core options, and the 3/4 inch Grade 1 latch fire door listing.
16) Does the Schlage ALX50 come with keys, or do I need to order them separately?
Two keys ship with the lock on the keyed cylinder version. If you order a less cylinder or less core option (L, B or J), there is no cylinder in the box, so keys come with whatever cylinder or core you supply.
17) What finishes does the Schlage ALX50 Sparta lever come in, and is there one that holds up in a healthcare corridor?
Ten finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 619 satin nickel, 622 matte black, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 626AM satin chrome antimicrobial and 643E aged bronze. For clinics, patient rooms and food service, 626AM is the antimicrobial version of the standard 626 satin chrome, so it matches the rest of a 626 building visually while carrying the antimicrobial coating. Every one of the ten finishes is offered with all four cylinder options.
18) Can I change a Schlage ALX50 to a different function later without buying a whole new lock?
Yes, that is the point of the ALX modular design. The chassis is patent pending for quick in-field function set up, and one chassis covers every function in the series, so repurposing a room from office to storeroom or classroom is a function change rather than a new lock. The same modularity lets a locksmith carry chassis, function and lever kits as truck stock and build the configuration on site instead of stocking every finish and lever combination.
19) What is a simpler alternative to the ALX50 for a door that does not actually need to lock?
The ALX50 is keyed with a key cylinder outside and push button inside. If the opening only needs a latch, the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 non-handed cylindrical passage lever in medium duty, and the Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 passage/closet cylindrical lever in the 5300 Series. Hager 2510 is another Grade 2 passage lever, covering 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors. All three drop the cylinder and the push button entirely.
20) Is a Kwikset or Callan entrance lever the same thing as the ALX50?
They are not interchangeable on a commercial opening. The ALX50 is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical lock. The Callan Artino and Callan Bennett entrance leversets are Grade 3, and the Bennett is an entrance leverset with deadbolt combo rather than a single bored lock. The Kwikset 200BRNL Breton is a Grade 3 passage lever over 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, which does not lock at all. Grade 3 leversets are tested to a different ANSI/BHMA cycle and strength level than the Grade 2 ALX50.
21) What looks like an ALX50 substitute but will not work as one?
Several lever products in the same size class are not keyed entry locks. The Accentra 455LN Augusta and the BEST 9K 1DT are dummy trim, with no latch or chassis at all. The Emtek Classic Cortina dummy pair is likewise trim only. The Arrow MK02-TA is a privacy knob, not a lever, and it is non-keyed. The ALX50 is a keyed single cylinder lever lock with a deadlatch, so none of these will secure the opening.
22) We want keypad access on this opening instead of a key. What replaces the ALX50?
The ALX50 is a mechanical, non-electronic lock keyed with a cylinder. For code entry, the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock, and the Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with double combination covering 1-1/8 to 2 inch doors, which needs no power. The Emtek Classic keypad leverset is a further option in the Classic design.
23) I have Yale hardware on the other doors but want to key everything to Schlage like the ALX50. Is there a way?
The Accentra 107S is a Schlage cylinder adapter kit for Yale hardware, which lets Yale locks take a Schlage cylinder. The ALX50 accepts all Schlage cylinder formats plus five competitive formats, and is offered with the P conventional 6-pin C keyway, so the two can sit on one key system across a mixed fleet.
24) The spec calls for a knob, not a lever. What is the entrance-function knob equivalent?
The Arrow RL Series HK11-BB is a turn-pushbutton entrance cylindrical lock with a ball knob and conventional cylinder, covering 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same thickness range the ALX50 accommodates. Its turn-pushbutton operation parallels the ALX50 push button inside. Bear in mind the ALX50 lever meets ADA requirements, which a knob trim does not offer.
25) What is the Schlage ALX50 lever and chassis actually made of?
Zinc and steel through the lock body and trim, with a stainless steel latchbolt and Grade 1 compression springs in the chassis. Captured screws in the latch, strike and inside spring cage mean no loose small parts falling out during service, which matters when you are working off a ladder or handing the job to a tech.
26) Is there a heavy duty non-keyed lever that suites with the ALX50 for the openings that do not need a cylinder?
The ALX50 is a heavy duty Grade 2 lock. Falcon T101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage lever with pressure release technology in the T Series, and Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty fire rated passage lock spanning 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch doors. On the medium duty side, the BEST 7KC single dummy trim is a Grade 2 non-keyed lever for openings that need trim only.
27) Which entrance lever should I use on an interior residential-style door where the ALX50 commercial trim is more than we need?
The ALX50 is a commercial Grade 2 lock in zinc and steel. For a lighter interior application, the Cal-Royal AUS00 is an Entrance/Office Grade 3 lever with a solid brass forged body over 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, matching the ALX50 function. The Deltana 6431 Linstead and 6411 Morant entry levers cover 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors in decorative trim.
