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 ALXV53P RHO 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Schlage ALXV53 entrance lock actually do when someone pushes the inside button?
The ALXV53 is an ANSI F109 entrance function lever lock: key cylinder outside, push/turn button inside, deadlatching latch. Push the button and the outside lever locks; it releases with a key outside or by rotating the inside lever. Push AND turn the button and it stays locked, the outside key then only retracts the latch, so to fully unlock you return the button to its home position first, then use the key or turn the inside lever. The inside lever is always free for immediate egress, whatever the button is doing.
2) What is the Vandlgard feature on the Schlage ALXV53 and can I turn it off?
Vandlgard means the outside lever free-wheels when the lock is secured instead of holding rigid, so someone hanging on the lever or kicking it down transfers the load into the clutch rather than into the chassis and spindle. On the ALXV53 it is field selectable and field reversible to conventional non-Vandlgard locked lever engagement, so you can set the same lock either way at the door. Worth having on dorms, schools, multi-family corridors, and any opening that sees abuse.
3) Is the Schlage ALXV53 fire rated for a labeled door?
Yes. ALX Series locks are UL/cUL listed 3-hour for A label fire doors up to 4 x 8 foot or 4 x 10 foot single doors and 8 x 8 foot pairs, and 90-minute on 8 x 10 foot pairs when specified with the 3/4 inch Grade 1 latch option. They are also certified under ANSI/BHMA A156.2-2011 Series 4000, Grade 2, and meet ADA requirements.
4) I need Grade 1 for a high traffic opening. Is the Schlage ALXV53 enough, or should I step up?
The ALXV53 is a Grade 2 heavy duty cylindrical lock with a stainless steel latchbolt and Grade 1 compression springs, which handles offices, corridors, and most multi-family and commercial openings. If your spec calls out Grade 1 outright, ALX suites with the Schlage ND Series Grade 1 locks, so you can use ND on the abused or spec-driven openings and ALX elsewhere and keep the lever design and finish consistent across the building. Grade 1 cylindrical alternatives from other lines include the Corbin Russwin CL3100 Series and the Falcon K Series, both Grade 1 cylindrical lever locks.
5) What is the closest Grade 2 cylindrical entrance lever to a Schlage ALXV53?
The Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical entry lock with a lever handle, and the Hager 2540 is also a Grade 2 cylindrical lock listed with entrance function and a Withnell lever. Both are rated Grade 2 like the ALXV53, which is tested to ANSI/BHMA F109 entrance function with a key cylinder outside, push button inside and a deadlatch. The Hager pair carries a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness range; the ALXV53 accommodates 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors with minimal chassis adjustment. Note that the ALXV53 carries the field selectable Vandlgard feature, where the outside lever moves freely under force when locked, which the Hager locks are not described with.
6) I need a lever for an opening where the door should stay locked at all times and only a key gets in. What should I order instead of an ALXV53?
Order a storeroom function lock rather than an entrance lock. The Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever lockset with a deadlocking latchbolt for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, and the Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom cylindrical lock with a Withnell lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. The ALXV53 is an F109 entrance lock whose inside push button controls whether the outside lever is locked, so the outside lever is unlocked whenever the button is in the home position; a storeroom lock has no inside button and the outside lever is always locked.
7) Is a Cal-Royal AUS00 entrance lever the same thing as a Schlage ALXV53?
No. The Cal-Royal AUS00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office lever with a solid brass forged body for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, while the ALXV53 is a Grade 2 lock certified under ANSI/BHMA A156.2-2011 Series 4000 with a zinc and steel body. Function differs too: the AUS00 is entrance/office, which corresponds to the Schlage ALX50 F82 entrance/office function, not the ALX53 F109 entrance function. If a facility spec calls for Grade 2 commercial, the AUS00 does not meet it.
8) My door is 2 inches thick. Which entrance lever fits?
The Hager 2525 Grade 2 cylindrical entry lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Hager 2540 covers the same 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch range in entrance function. The Deltana 6201 Manchester and Deltana 6411 Morant entry levers also list a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch range. The Schlage ALXV53 chassis accommodates 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors with minimal chassis adjustment, so a 2 inch door falls outside it.
9) Is an Arrow HK11 turn-pushbutton entrance lock the same function as an ALXV53?
The Arrow HK11 is a Grade 2 turn-pushbutton entrance cylindrical lock with a conventional cylinder for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, matching the ALXV53 on grade, entrance function and door thickness range. The difference is the trim: the HK11 uses a ball knob, while the ALXV53 is a lever available in 10 designs from Athens to Tubular. Where ADA compliance drives the opening, the ALXV53 lever meets ADA requirements and a knob does not offer the same operation.
10) Do I need to specify handing when ordering a Schlage ALXV53 lever lock?
No handing to specify. The ALXV53 is non-handed, so one part number covers left and right hand openings. That is what makes it worth stocking on a truck or in a maintenance shop, one lock covers every door swing in the building.
11) What is the difference between an entrance lock like the ALXV53 and a storeroom or classroom lock?
Entrance function (F109) gives the occupant control at the door: the inside button locks and unlocks the outside lever without a key, which is what you want on an office or apartment where somebody inside decides when it is secured. A storeroom lock keeps the outside lever locked at all times and only a key gets you in, no button, which is the right call for mechanical rooms and supply closets. A classroom lock is keyed from the outside to lock and unlock the outside lever, so no one can secure or unsecure the door by hand. Within the ALX family those are the ALX80 storeroom (ANSI F86) and ALX70 classroom (ANSI F84). Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt if you want a lower cost alternative on back of house doors.
12) Which lever designs and finishes can I get on the Schlage ALX, and will they match the rest of my building?
Ten lever designs are offered: Athens, Boardwalk, Broadway, Latitude, Longitude, Omega, Rhodes, Saturn, Sparta and Tubular. Finishes run 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 levers are shared with the Schlage ND Series Grade 1 locks, so a building running ND on its heavy openings can put ALX on the rest and the doors still read the same. 626AM is worth knowing about for healthcare and food service where an antimicrobial finish is specified.
13) Can I buy the ALX as separate parts to stock on a truck instead of full configured locks?
Yes, and that is the point of the ALX modular design. Buy it factory configured, buy it less levers, or buy chassis, function and lever kits separately and build the lock you need on site. One chassis covers all functions and cores, and the chassis design allows in field function setup, so a locksmith can turn stock into an entrance, classroom or storeroom lock at the door instead of carrying four SKUs. Captured screws in the latch, strike and inside spring cage mean no loose small parts on the floor during install.
14) Does the Schlage ALXV53 meet California and Florida code requirements for levers?
Florida Building Code and Miami Dade hurricane requirements are met. For the California Referenced Standards Code, compliance depends on the lever you pick: all levers with a return to door of 1/2 inch (64 mm) or less comply, so choose the lever design on that basis if you are building in California. ADA requirements are met as well.
15) Is a Delaney LP250 keypad leverlock an alternative to an ALXV53?
They solve the opening differently. 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 for doors 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch thick, both credentialed by code rather than key. The Schlage ALXV53 is a non-electronic Grade 2 lock with a key cylinder outside and a push button inside, and it ships with 2 keys. Choose the keypad units when you want to avoid issuing keys, and the ALXV53 when the opening has to stay on an existing Schlage key system.
16) What is the Grade 1 step up from an ALXV53 entrance lever?
The Dexter C1000 entry/office lock is a Grade 1 keyed cylindrical lever with a clutching lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, and the Falcon B511CP6D covers the same entry/office function at Grade 2 medium duty. The ALXV53 is Grade 2, tested and certified under ANSI/BHMA A156.2-2011 Series 4000, and is listed as heavy duty. The Dexter C1000 clutching lever spins free when locked; the ALXV53 achieves a comparable effect through its field selectable Vandlgard feature, which is field reversible to non-Vandlgard locked lever engagement.
17) Callan makes an entrance leverset. How does it differ from a Schlage ALXV53?
The Callan Artino is a Grade 3 entrance leverset and the Callan Bennett is a Grade 3 entrance leverset supplied as a deadbolt combo. Both sit a grade below the ALXV53, which is Grade 2 and catalogued for commercial use with a heavy duty rating. The Bennett also differs in configuration: it pairs the leverset with a deadbolt in one set, where the ALXV53 is a single bored cylindrical lockset with a deadlatch and no separate deadbolt.
18) Can I use a passage lever on a door where I was quoted an ALXV53?
Only if the door never needs to lock. A passage lever such as the Falcon B101, a Grade 2 medium duty non-handed cylindrical passage lever, or the Accentra 5301LN Augusta Grade 2 passage/closet lever, latches the door but has no cylinder and no locking. The ALXV53 has a key cylinder outside and a push button inside that locks the outside lever, so swapping to passage removes the ability to secure the opening entirely. Both the ALXV53 and the Falcon B101 are non-handed.
19) I need a vandal resistant lever for a corridor door but no key. What is the option?
The Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant cylindrical lever lock in passage/closet function, fire rated, for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch thick. It gives vandal resistance without a cylinder, where the ALXV53 pairs its field selectable Vandlgard feature with a keyed entrance function. If the corridor door does need a key, the ALXV53 keeps the Vandlgard behavior and adds the outside cylinder, and it fits 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors rather than the CL3110 range.
20) Which lever should I use for a classroom door instead of an entrance function?
For a classroom, the Cal-Royal AG03 is a classroom lever with a Grade 2 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different and a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Dexter C1000 classroom is a Grade 1 clutching keyed lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The ALXV53 is an F109 entrance lock, whose inside push button controls the outside lever; classroom function is instead keyed from the outside only. Within Schlage, the equivalent classroom function is the ALX70 ANSI F84, and the AG03 shares the ALXV53 standard 2-3/4 inch backset.
21) Will a Kwikset 200BRNL work on a commercial entry door in place of a Schlage ALXV53?
The Kwikset 200BRNL Breton is a Grade 3 passage lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, so it is neither the grade nor the function of an ALXV53, which is a Grade 2 commercial F109 entrance lock with a key cylinder outside. Passage means no cylinder and no locking at all. For a commercial entry opening the closer matches are the Hager 2525 Grade 2 cylindrical entry lock or the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway.
22) I need matching dummy trim on the inactive leaf next to an entrance lever. What pairs with it?
For a dummy on the inactive leaf, the BEST 7KC single dummy trim is a Grade 2 non-keyed medium duty cylindrical lever trim and the BEST 9K 1DT is the Grade 1 heavy duty equivalent; the Accentra 455LN Augusta is a Grade 1 heavy duty single dummy cylindrical lever. Within the Schlage line the matching dummy functions are the ALX170 single dummy trim and the ALX172 double dummy trim, which carry the same 10 lever designs as the ALXV53 so the trim reads identically across the pair.
23) The spec calls for a fire rated Grade 1 lever. What takes the place of an ALXV53?
The Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical lock with a fire rating and non-handed levers, covering doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is Grade 1, fire rated, for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. Both are passage function, so they suit an opening that latches without locking. The ALXV53 is Grade 2, non-handed, and UL/cUL listed for 3-hour A label fire doors, so on a keyed entrance opening it is the fire listed option; the Falcon and Corbin locks apply where the spec is Grade 1 and no key is required.
24) What is the Schlage ALXV53 made of, and will the lever droop over time?
Zinc and steel construction with a stainless steel latchbolt. Lever droop and wobble, the usual complaint on cylindrical levers after a few years of traffic, is addressed with a deep drawn spindle carrying five points of lever engagement, and Grade 1 compression springs return the lever. That combination is why it carries a heavy duty rating despite being a Grade 2 lock.
