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 ALX53P SAT 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

    1) What exactly does the ALX53 entrance function do when someone pushes the inside button?
    The ALX53 is the ANSI F109 entrance lock: key cylinder outside, push/turn button inside, deadlatch. Push the button straight in and the outside lever locks; it releases with a key from outside or simply by rotating the inside lever. Push and turn the button and it stays locked, and the outside key then only retracts the latch for that one entry, it does not unlock the lever. To restore normal operation you return the button to home, then key or turn the inside lever. The inside lever is always free for immediate egress, which is what makes it usable on an occupied office or apartment door.
    2) Do I need to specify handing on the Schlage ALX53 Saturn lever?
    No handing to call out. The ALX53 is non-handed, so one part number covers left and right hand openings and you can stock a single lock for a building with doors swinging both ways.
    3) Does the ALX53 come with a cylinder and keys, or do I have to buy those separately?
    Depends on which of the four cylinder choices you order. The P option arrives with a conventional 6-pin cylinder in the Schlage C keyway and 2 keys. The other three ship without a core: B is prepped for a small format interchangeable core, J for a full size interchangeable core, and L is less conventional cylinder, so a facility already running its own keying system supplies the core. If you order B, J or L, plan on sourcing the core, and set the keying option to None rather than KD or KA.
    4) Can I get several ALX53 locks keyed alike so one key runs the whole suite?
    Keyed alike is a selectable option on the ALX53, alongside keyed different, which is the standard. A key code field is available at order time if the building is already on an established Schlage key system and the new locks have to work on the existing key. Keying only applies to the P conventional cylinder version, since the interchangeable core and less cylinder options ship without a core to key.
    5) Is the Schlage ALX53 fire rated for a labeled door?
    Yes. ALX Series locks are UL/cUL listed for 3-hour A label fire doors at 4' x 8' or 4' x 10' single, and 8' x 8' pairs; 90-minute for 8' x 10' pairs when specified with the 3/4" Grade 1 latch options. The series is also tested and certified under ANSI/BHMA A156.2-2011 Series 4000, Grade 2, and meets ADA requirements.
    6) What is the closest Grade 2 keyed entrance lever lock to the Schlage ALX53 Saturn from another brand?
    The Hager 2525 is the nearest straight equivalent: a Grade 2 cylindrical entry lever lock built for commercial openings, the same grade and entrance function as the ALX53 Saturn. The Hager 2525 covers a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness range, so it reaches slightly thicker doors than the 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch the ALX53 is set up for. The Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever is another Grade 2 keyed option in the same class, and it ships in the 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different, which is the same keyway family as the ALX53 P conventional cylinder, so it can be brought into an existing Schlage C key system.
    7) Which lever lock should be used instead of the Schlage ALX53 Saturn on a door that needs to stay locked at all times with key-only entry?
    The ALX53 Saturn is an ANSI F109 entrance lock with a key cylinder outside and a push button inside, so whether the outside lever is locked depends on someone setting the button. For an opening that must stay locked around the clock with key-only access, a storeroom function is the right part instead. The Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever lockset with a deadlocking latchbolt, and the Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom cylindrical lock with the Withnell lever covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Staying within Schlage, the ALX80 is the ANSI F86 storeroom function in the same ALX Series chassis.
    8) What is a Grade 1 alternative to the Schlage ALX53 Saturn entrance lever for a high traffic opening?
    For a heavier duty cycle than the ALX53 Saturn's Grade 2 rating, the Dexter C1000 Series entry/office lever is a Grade 1 keyed cylindrical lever lock with a clutching mechanism, covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The clutching design lets the outside lever rotate freely when locked instead of transferring force into the chassis. Note the function difference: the Dexter C1000 is an entry/office lock, while the ALX53 is the ANSI F109 entrance function. The Schlage counterpart of the entry/office function in the ALX Series is the ALX50, ANSI F82, and the ALX Series suites with the ND Series Grade 1 locks if the whole opening needs to move up a grade.
    9) Will an Accentra Augusta 5301LN lever work as a replacement for a Schlage ALX53 Saturn?
    No, not on a keyed opening. The Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 cylindrical lever lock in the passage/closet function, which has no cylinder and no locking at all - both levers always retract the latch. The ALX53 Saturn is keyed, with a single cylinder outside and a push button inside. The same caution applies to the Accentra 4601LN Grade 2 passage lever, the Falcon B101 Grade 2 passage lever, the Arrow GL01 Grade 2 Sierra passage lever, and the Hager 2510 Grade 2 Withnell passage lever: they share the grade and the cylindrical lever form but none of them lock. Those are the right parts only where the door needs latching without security, such as a corridor or closet door.
    10) What should be used instead of a Schlage ALX53 Saturn on a classroom door?
    A classroom door usually needs the outside lever locked and unlocked by key only, with no inside button that an occupant can set - which is exactly what the ALX53 Saturn's push button inside does. The Cal-Royal AG03 is a Grade 2 classroom lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different and a 2-3/4 inch backset, matching the ALX53's 2-3/4 inch standard backset and its C keyway conventional cylinder option, so it drops into the same door prep and the same key system. Within Schlage, the ALX70 is the ANSI F84 classroom function on the same chassis. For a room that also needs to be locked down from inside the classroom, the Dexter C1000 classroom security lever is a Grade 1 keyed clutching lock for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
    11) What is the difference between the ALX53 and the ALX50 entrance/office lock?
    Both are keyed entrance locks with an outside cylinder and inside button. The ALX50 is the ANSI F82 entrance/office lock and the ALX53 is ANSI F109. Within the same ALX family you can also step to ALX70 classroom (F84) if the door must be locked and unlocked only by key from outside, or ALX80 storeroom (F86) if the outside lever should stay locked at all times with the key always retracting the latch. The chassis is common across functions, so a facility can change a room's function later with a function kit instead of a whole new lock.
    12) I need a Grade 1 lever lock, not Grade 2. What should I look at instead of the ALX53?
    The ALX53 is a Grade 2 lock, heavy duty, and it is the right pick where budget matters and traffic is moderate. For a Grade 1 opening, Schlage's own ND Series is the step up, and the ALX Series is designed to suite with ND Series levers so the two look alike across a building. Among other brands ZenSupply carries, the Corbin Russwin CL3100 Series and Falcon K Series are Grade 1 cylindrical levers, and the Dexter C1000 Entry/Office is a Grade 1 keyed entry function for 1-3/8" to 1-3/4" doors.
    13) Which finishes does the Saturn lever ALX53 come in, and is there anything for 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 a hospital or clinic touch point, 626AM is the antimicrobial version of the standard 626 satin chrome, so it matches adjacent 626 hardware visually while carrying the coating. Every one of the ten finishes is available across all four cylinder options.
    14) Can the ALX53 be set up so the locked lever does not break when someone forces it?
    Yes, that is the Vandlgard feature, and it is field selectable on the ALX53. With Vandlgard active the outside lever rotates freely when locked instead of transmitting force into the chassis, which is what you want on a school corridor or an exposed exterior door. It is field reversible back to non-Vandlgard locked lever engagement, so the same lock covers both preferences without a different part number.
    15) Will the ALX53 accept a competitor's cylinder or a high security core?
    The ALX chassis accepts all Schlage cylinders plus five competitive cylinder formats, so a building standardized on another manufacturer's key system can usually keep it. For high security, the lock provides high security locking when used with Primus XP UL 437 listed cylinders. Order the B (SFIC), J (FSIC) or L (less conventional cylinder) version when you are supplying your own core.
    16) Does the ALX53 meet ADA and Florida hurricane code requirements?
    ALX Series locks meet ADA requirements and comply with Florida Building Code and Miami Dade hurricane requirements. For California Referenced Standards Code, all levers with a return to door of 1/2" (64 mm) or less comply. The lever is the accessible operable part here, which is why lever trim rather than a knob is specified on most code-driven openings.
    17) I stock locks on a service truck. Can I carry ALX53 parts instead of complete locks?
    That is what the modular design is for. The ALX chassis is common to all functions and cores, so a locksmith can carry chassis, function kits and lever kits and build the lock needed at the door, and a facility can convert a room from one function to another without buying a new lock. Function 53 uses the 47267031 interior push/turn button. Latches, strikes, roses and the 21-020 6-pin key-in-lever cylinder are all available as separate parts.
    18) What is a lower cost entrance lever than the Schlage ALX53 Saturn for light duty interior office doors?
    The Cal-Royal AUS00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office lever lock with a solid brass forged body, fitting doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Callan Artino is a Grade 3 entrance leverset. Both sit a grade below the ALX53 Saturn, which is tested to ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Series 4000 Grade 2 and rated heavy duty. Grade 3 is built for lighter cycle counts, so it suits an interior office or a low traffic tenant door rather than a main entrance or a corridor door that sees constant use.
    19) Is the Falcon B511 the same thing as a Schlage ALX53 Saturn entrance lock?
    They are close but not the same function. The Falcon B511CP6D is a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical lever lock with an entry/office function, while the ALX53 Saturn is the ANSI F109 entrance function and is rated heavy duty. In the entry/office arrangement the inside button, once pushed, is released when the outside lever or key is operated; the F109 arrangement on the ALX53 holds the button through key operation when the button is pushed and turned, and the key then retracts the latch only. If a key-in-lever lock that stays locked after each entry is what the opening needs, the F109 behavior is the one to match, not the entry/office one.
    20) Is there a knob version of the Schlage ALX53 entrance function instead of a lever?
    Yes. The Arrow HK11 is a Grade 2 turn-pushbutton entrance cylindrical lock with a ball knob and a conventional cylinder, covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors - the same turn-button entrance behavior as the ALX53 but with a knob rather than the Saturn lever. One thing to weigh before ordering a knob: the ALX53 Saturn meets ADA requirements, and a lever is what accessible openings on a code-governed path generally call for, so a knob is a fit for openings outside that scope.
    21) What is the alternative to a Schlage ALX53 when the door needs coded access instead of keys?
    For access without issuing keys, the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock, and the Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with a double combination that fits doors from 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch - the Lockey needs no power or batteries. The ALX53 Saturn is a mechanical key-operated lock, not electronic, and ships with 2 keys. A keypad changes the credential management job: no keys to reissue when a tenant or crew turns over, but also no place in a master key system, which the ALX53 has through its conventional, SFIC, and FSIC cylinder options.
    22) For a door in a psychiatric or utility space, is the Schlage ALX53 the right lock or is there a better function?
    The ALX53 Saturn is an entrance function with a push/turn button on the inside, which gives an occupant control over the outside lever - not what a utility or patient-area door usually wants. The asylum/institution function keys both sides with no inside button at all. The Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a Grade 2 heavy duty asylum cylindrical lock with a ball knob and a conventional cylinder in the Schlage C keyway, which keys into the same system as the ALX53's 6-pin C keyway conventional cylinder. For a Grade 1 version of the same function, the Dexter C1000 asylum F87 covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
    23) Can a Yale or Accentra lock be brought onto a Schlage key system alongside a Schlage ALX53?
    Yes, with an adapter. The Accentra 107S is a Schlage cylinder adapter kit for Yale hardware, which lets Yale trim take a Schlage cylinder so the opening runs on the same keys as an ALX53 ordered with the 6-pin conventional C keyway cylinder. Going the other direction, the ALX chassis accepts all Schlage cylinders plus five competitive cylinder formats, so in a mixed-brand building the ALX53 can often take the core already in use rather than the door taking a new key.
    24) Is a Kwikset Breton or Delta lever an acceptable substitute for a Schlage ALX53 Saturn in an apartment building?
    Not on a unit entry door. The Kwikset 200BRNL Breton and the 200DL Delta are passage levers - the Breton is Grade 3 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and neither locks or takes a key. The Kwikset 300BRNL Breton is a Grade 3 privacy lever with a push button, but privacy hardware is not keyed from the outside and is meant for bath and bedroom doors. The ALX53 Saturn is a keyed Grade 2 commercial entrance lock rated heavy duty. Kwikset passage and privacy levers are a fit for the interior doors inside a unit; the entry door is where the ALX53 class of lock belongs.
    25) What is the vandal resistant alternative to a Schlage ALX53 Saturn lever?
    The ALX53 Saturn has a field selectable Vandlgard feature that can be reversed between Vandlgard and non-Vandlgard locked lever engagement, so the free-spinning locked lever is set at the door rather than ordered as a separate part number. If a Grade 1 vandal resistant lever is required by spec, the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant cylindrical lever lock, fire rated, for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors - but it is the passage/closet function, so it does not lock and would only substitute on a non-secured opening.
    26) If a door needs to be released remotely, what replaces a Schlage ALX53 Saturn?
    The ALX53 Saturn is a mechanical lock with no electrified option. For remote release, the Corbin Russwin CL33903 is a Grade 1 fail safe electrified cylindrical lever lock at 12VAC/DC, offered with the NZ lever and D rose, for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. Fail safe means the lock unlocks on loss of power, which is the behavior an egress-controlled opening usually specifies. If staying inside Schlage, the ALX Series suites with ND Series Grade 1 locks, which add 4 electrified options alongside the mechanical functions, so the mechanical doors and the access-controlled door can carry matching trim.
    27) What is the ALX53 lock body actually made of, and will the lever droop over time?
    Zinc and steel construction with a stainless steel latchbolt, which is where the series claims to exceed Grade 2 strength. The lever is carried on a deep-drawn spindle with 5 points of lever engagement specifically to prevent droop and wobble, and Grade 1 compression springs return it. That combination is the reason this holds up on a high-traffic multi-family or office corridor rather than sagging after a season.
    28) Is the ALX53 Saturn lever an electronic or keypad lock?
    No, the ALX53 is a purely mechanical cylindrical lock, key operated from outside with a push button inside. If a code-entry opening is what you need, ZenSupply carries the Delaney LP250 electronic keypad leverlock and the Lockey 1150 mechanical keypad lever set, which fits doors 1-1/8" to 2" thick.
    29) Can I match the Saturn lever across a building where some doors need a passage or privacy lock instead of a keyed one?
    Yes. The Saturn lever is one of ten ALX lever designs, and the same series covers the non-keyed functions: ALX10 passage (F75), ALX40 privacy (F76), ALX44 hospital privacy, and ALX170 and ALX172 dummy trim. Specify the same lever design and finish across the openings and the closets, restrooms and keyed entries all read as one set of hardware.
    30) What matches a Schlage ALX53 Saturn on a door that only needs a lever pull with no latch?
    A dummy trim is the right part for a fixed pull on an inactive leaf or a closet face. Within Schlage the ALX170 single dummy and ALX172 double dummy carry the same lever designs as the ALX53 Saturn, so the trim reads the same down a corridor. From other brands, the BEST 7KC Series single dummy trim is a Grade 2 non-keyed cylindrical lever, the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy is the Grade 1 heavy duty equivalent, the Accentra 455LN Augusta is a Grade 1 single dummy, and the Callan Bentley is a Grade 2 dummy lever. None of these latch or lock - they mount to the door face only.
