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 ALXV44 RHO 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How does a hospital privacy lock like the Schlage ALXV44 let staff get into a locked patient bathroom in an emergency?
The ALXV44 has a coin turn on the outside rose. There is no cylinder and no key. The patient presses the push button on the inside to lock the outside lever; from the corridor, staff turn the coin slot with a coin or flat blade and the outside lever releases. That is the whole point of the hospital privacy function versus a standard privacy lock: the emergency release is deliberately toolless and obvious, so anyone on the floor can use it. The inside lever is always free, so someone can walk out even while the door is locked.
2) What stops a patient from locking themselves in a bathroom with the ALXV44 hospital lock?
Two things release the button on the ALXV44. Turning the inside lever cancels the lock, and closing the door cancels it as well, so the button will not stay set once the room is exited. If someone inside is unresponsive, the outside coin turn still opens it. This anti-lockout behavior is the practical difference between the ALX44 hospital privacy function and the ALX40 standard privacy function.
3) What does the Vandlgard feature on the Schlage ALXV44 actually do, and can I turn it off?
Vandlgard means the outside lever free-wheels when the lock is secured instead of resisting force. Someone hanging on the lever or hitting it downward spins it rather than transferring torque into the chassis, which is what saves the lock in patient rooms, school restrooms, and high-traffic public toilets. It is field reversible: the same lock converts between Vandlgard and standard locked-lever engagement without a new chassis, so a facility can standardize on one part and set the behavior on site.
4) Do I have to order the ALXV44 handed for a left or right hand door?
No handing to specify. The ALXV44 is non-handed, so one part number covers left and right hand, inswing and outswing. For a property manager buying a dozen at once for patient rooms or public restrooms, that means no split order and no wrong-hand return.
5) Will the Schlage ALXV44 drop into my existing strike prep, or do I have to re-prep the frame?
The ALXV44 ships with a spring latch on a 2-3/4 inch backset, square corner face, 1-1/8 x 2-1/4 inches, with restoring function. The strike supplied is an ANSI strike, no box, 1-1/4 x 4-7/8 inches with a 1-3/16 inch lip. If your frame is already cut for a standard ANSI 4-7/8 inch strike and the door has a 2-3/4 inch backset bore, it goes straight in. A frame prepped for a small T-strike or a 2-3/8 inch backset bore will not accept it without work.
6) Can I use the ALXV44 on a fire rated patient room or restroom door?
Yes, within the listed configurations. ALX Series locks are UL and cUL listed for 3-hour A label fire doors up to a 4 x 8 or 4 x 10 foot single door and 8 x 8 foot pairs, and 90 minutes on 8 x 10 foot pairs when specified with the 3/4 inch Grade 1 latch option. The series is tested to ANSI/BHMA A156.2-2011 Series 4000, Grade 2, and meets ADA requirements. It also complies with Florida Building Code and Miami-Dade hurricane requirements.
7) What can I use instead of a Schlage ALXV44 hospital privacy lock if the door needs push/pull operation instead of a lever?
The ALXV44 is a cylindrical hospital privacy lock with a lever handle, a coin turn outside and a pushbutton inside, on a 2-3/4 inch backset. If the opening calls for push/pull paddle operation rather than a lever, the ABH 6000 Series push/pull hospital latch and the ABH 6800 Series low profile push/pull hospital latch are both hospital latches built around paddle hardware, and the ABH 6800 Series is described as ADA compliant. The Kaba Ilco 459 Series push/pull paddle is another paddle-operated option. The tradeoff is the privacy function: the ALXV44 pushbutton locks the outside lever and the outside coin turn provides emergency access, which the paddle sets do not replicate.
8) The door is prepped for a mortise lock, not a cylindrical bore - what hospital latch fits?
The Schlage ALXV44 is a cylindrical lock and needs a standard bored lockset prep with a 2-3/4 inch backset. For a mortise-prepped door, the ABH 6600 Series is a mortise lock hospital push/pull latch and is also listed at a 2-3/4 inch backset. Confirm the existing mortise pocket and faceplate before ordering, since the two chassis types are not interchangeable in the same door prep.
9) Is a Trimco 1562A hospital push/pull latch a direct substitute for a Schlage ALXV44?
They are not the same function. The Trimco 1562A Hospital Series push/pull latch is a tubular passage latch with levers down, meaning it latches but does not lock. The Schlage ALXV44 is a hospital privacy lock: the inside pushbutton locks the outside lever, turning the inside lever or closing the door releases the button, and an outside coin turn gives emergency access. Both are heavy duty. If the room needs privacy locking, the 1562A does not cover it; if the opening only needs a latch that holds the door closed, the 1562A is the simpler set.
10) Should I use a lever hospital privacy lock or a push/pull hospital latch on a patient room door?
Different jobs. The ALXV44 is a cylindrical lever lock that actually secures the door, so it belongs where a patient or staff member needs to lock themselves in, typically a toilet or exam room. A push/pull hospital latch is a passage device: it releases with a hip, forearm, or cart and does not lock. If the opening is a corridor or clean-supply door that has to be operated hands full, look at the Trimco 1562A tubular push/pull hospital latch or the ABH 6800 low profile series instead. For a mortise prep, ABH offers the 6600 series push/pull on a 2-3/4 inch backset, the same backset as the ALXV44.
11) I need a quieter hospital latch for a night ward. Is the Schlage ALXV44 the right pick?
If the requirement is quiet operation rather than privacy, no. The ALXV44 is a spring latch lever lock and it latches audibly like any cylindrical lockset. The ABH 6800Q quiet low profile push/pull hospital latch with round cover is the product built around noise, though it is a push/pull device and does not lock the door. Use the 6800Q on the corridor side and keep the ALXV44 on the toilet or exam door that needs to be secured.
12) Do I need to order a cylinder or keys with the Schlage ALXV44?
No cylinder, no keys, no keyway to specify. The ALXV44 is a non-keyed function, so there is nothing to key into an existing master system and nothing to add to the order for it to work. What you do specify is the lever design and the finish. If a room later needs to be keyed, the ALX modular chassis is designed for in-field function change, so the same chassis can be converted rather than replaced.
13) What lever designs and finishes does the Schlage ALXV44 hospital privacy lock come in?
Ten lever designs: Athens, Boardwalk, Broadway, Latitude, Longitude, Omega, Rhodes, Saturn, Sparta, and Tubular. 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. The 626AM antimicrobial finish is the one that usually matters on a patient room or a food service corridor. Rose design follows the lever you choose.
14) Will the Schlage ALXV44 match the ND Series locks already on my other doors?
Yes, and that is the intended pairing. The ALX Series shares lever designs with Schlage ND Series Grade 1 locks, so an ALXV44 on the toilet door reads as the same hardware as an ND storeroom or classroom lock on the corridor door. A facility can put Grade 1 ND on the openings that take abuse and Grade 2 ALX on the lower-traffic interior doors without a visible mismatch, provided you order the same lever design and finish on both.
15) Is a Grade 2 lock like the Schlage ALXV44 strong enough for a busy public restroom?
For a public or patient restroom, yes. The ALXV44 is ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 but built above the grade in the places that fail first: a stainless steel latchbolt, Grade 1 compression springs, and a deep-drawn spindle with five points of lever engagement to stop the droop and wobble that puts a lever lock out of service. Add the field-set Vandlgard free-wheeling outside lever and the abuse case is largely covered. The chassis is zinc and steel and the series is rated heavy duty for commercial use.
16) We are standardizing patient room doors across a facility - how do the hospital latch options compare on handing and finish range?
The Schlage ALXV44 is non-handed, so one part number covers both hands of door, and it is offered in ten finishes including 626 Satin Chrome, 626AM Satin Chrome Antimicrobial, 630-style options such as 619 Satin Nickel, 613 Oil Rubbed Bronze and 622 Matte Black, across ten lever designs from Athens and Rhodes to Sparta and Tubular. The push/pull alternatives are organized by series rather than lever design: ABH offers the 6000, 6600, 6800 and 6800Q Series, and Kaba Ilco offers the 459 Series paddle. For a facility standard on levers with an antimicrobial finish option, the ALXV44 carries that in 626AM.
17) Does the Schlage ALXV44 comply with California lever return requirements?
Under the California Referenced Standards Code, ALX Series levers with a return to door of 1/2 inch or less comply, so the answer depends on which of the ten lever designs you pick rather than on the ALXV44 function itself. Confirm the return dimension for your chosen lever design before you commit a California job to a specific style.
18) Is the Schlage ALXV44 an electronic or access control lock?
No. The ALXV44 is a purely mechanical cylindrical lockset, no wiring, no power, no credential reader. If the opening needs electrified hardware, the ALX Series does not carry it, but Schlage ND Series Grade 1 locks offer electrified options and use the same lever designs, so the look stays consistent across the building.
