    Schlage B563P 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

    1) Can a teacher lock the Schlage B563 deadbolt from inside the room?
    Not from the inside. The B563 is a classroom function deadbolt: the bolt is thrown or retracted by the key outside, and the inside turn unit will retract the bolt only. Once fully thrown, the bolt automatically deadlocks. Nobody in the room can throw it, which is the whole point of the function on a corridor door where you want the room secured only by someone holding a key. If staff need to be able to secure the door from inside without a key, this is the wrong function. The B560 in the same B Series is thumbturn by cylinder and locks from either side.
    2) Will the Schlage B563 deadbolt fit a 1-3/4 inch door with a 2-3/4 inch backset?
    Both are covered. The B563 backset is adjustable for 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches with a lock-in-place helix design, so one lock handles either of the two standard bored backsets, and 5 inch fixed backset versions are offered for stile applications. Door thickness depends on the cylinder format: 1-3/8 to 1-7/8 inches with a conventional cylinder or thumbturn only, and 1-5/8 to 2 inches with SFIC. A 1-3/4 inch commercial door sits inside both ranges.
    3) If I order the Schlage B563 with a small format interchangeable core, is it still ANSI Grade 2?
    It is not. The B500 Series is ANSI/BHMA A156.5 Grade 2 certified with a conventional or FSIC cylinder; with SFIC it certifies at Grade 3. So a spec calling for Grade 2 has to be filled with the P6 6-pin conventional cylinder in the C keyway, the L less conventional cylinder version, or the J FSIC less core version, not the B SFIC less core. SFIC also shifts the door thickness range to 1-5/8 to 2 inches instead of 1-3/8 to 1-7/8.
    4) Can a Schlage B563 be keyed into the Schlage master key system we already run in the building?
    Yes, through factory keying. The keyed B563 carries a 6-pin conventional cylinder in the Schlage C keyway, and the B500 Series is offered with factory master keying plus open and restricted keyway options. Standard build is keyed different with two cut keys per lock, so say so on the order if you want it pinned into an existing system. If the building runs interchangeable cores instead, order the B SFIC less core or J FSIC less core version and stack your own cores.
    5) Will the Schlage B563 drop into the prep left by the deadbolt I am pulling out?
    It depends what is cut into the door now. The B563 uses a 1 by 2-1/4 inch square corner faceplate on a 1 inch bolt housing diameter, a 1-1/8 by 2-3/4 inch square corner strike, and a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch adjustable backset, which is the common commercial bored deadbolt prep. Like for like, it usually goes in with no new mortising. Where the existing prep is round corner, ANSI, or a drive-in bolt, the B500 bolt comes in round corner and circular drive-in faceplates and the strike is available in ANSI, round corner and thimble versions, so match the option to the prep rather than recutting the door.
    6) What deadbolt should I use on a door thicker than the Schlage B563 covers?
    The Schlage B563 covers 1-3/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors with a conventional cylinder and 1-5/8 to 2 inch doors with SFIC. For a door up to 2-1/4 inch, the Corbin Russwin DL3011 is a Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock rated 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch; it is cylinder outside and a blank plate inside, so there is no inside turn. The Deltana 7312KA2 is a Grade 3 double cylinder deadbolt for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors.
    7) Is there another Grade 2 classroom deadbolt equivalent to the Schlage B563?
    The Falcon D211 is the closest match. It is a Grade 2, medium duty classroom function deadbolt with single cylinder operation, cylinder outside and turn inside. The Schlage B563 is also Grade 2 and medium duty, with classroom function: key outside throws or retracts the bolt, inside turn retracts only. The Falcon is part of the D200 Series; the Schlage is part of the B500 Series with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset.
    8) Which other deadbolts key into an existing Schlage C keyway system?
    The Schlage B563 ships with a 6-pin conventional cylinder in the C keyway. The Hager deadbolts are built on the same keyway across four functions: the 3215 Grade 2 single cylinder with a 1 inch throw, the 3115 Grade 2 cylinder x thumbturn, the 3214 Grade 2 double cylinder, and the 3118 Grade 1 classroom deadbolt with a 6-pin cylinder. All four are listed for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch thick.
    9) Which deadbolts can be ordered less core to take our existing interchangeable cores?
    The Schlage B563 is available as SFIC less core, FSIC less core, and less conventional cylinder. Comparable options include the Arrow E61 26D IC, a Grade 2 single cylinder deadlock with SFIC prep less core for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors; the Deltana CL200LAIC, a Grade 2 interchangeable core deadbolt with a 2-3/4 inch backset; and the Delaney LM Series, a Grade 1 single cylinder less core deadbolt in dull chrome US26D.
    10) The opening cannot have a thumbturn on the inside. What replaces the Schlage B563 there?
    The Schlage B563 has an inside turn that retracts the bolt, so a double cylinder unit is the swap. Within the B Series that is the B562, cylinder by cylinder. Across brands, the Hager 3214 is a Grade 2 double cylinder on the Schlage C keyway for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Dexter DB2000-DCT is a Grade 2 double cylinder over the same door range, and the Design Hardware D1 is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty double cylinder for 1-3/4 inch doors.
    11) I need a fire rated deadbolt on a labeled door. What are the options?
    The Schlage B563 is offered with optional UL 10B and UL 10C listing as an auxiliary lock, indicated by the letter F and the UL symbol on the latch front. The Cal-Royal CRB800 is a Grade 1 heavy duty single cylinder deadbolt supplied with a UL 3-hour fire rated latch. The Hager 3118 Grade 1 classroom deadbolt and the Hager 3115 Grade 2 deadbolt both carry a fire rating and cover 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.
    12) What other deadbolt functions does the Schlage B500 Series offer besides the B563 classroom?
    Seven functions across three families. Keyed single cylinder: B560 thumbturn by cylinder, B561 blank rose by cylinder, and the B563 classroom where the inside turn retracts only. Keyed double cylinder: B562, cylinder on both sides. Keyless: B571 door bolt with occupancy indicator, B580 thumbturn with no exterior trim, and B581 thumbturn by blank rose. Order the B563 when the room should be secured only by someone holding a key, the B560 when occupants need to lock the door themselves, the B562 where reaching through glass or a lite to a thumbturn is the risk, and one of the keyless bolts on a door that never needs key access from the outside.
    13) Can a Schlage B500 Series deadbolt be used on a fire rated door?
    The B500 Series is available with UL 10B and UL 10C listing as an auxiliary lock, including a UL 10C 3-hour fire rated option, but that has to be ordered as the fire rated version rather than the standard build. A listed lock is identified in the field by the letter F and the UL symbol on the latch front, which is what an inspector or a locksmith looks for. Fire rated fixed backset options are part of that offering. Auxiliary means it is a deadbolt only, working alongside the latching lockset on the opening, not replacing it.
    14) Should I add a deadbolt above the lockset or use an interconnected lock?
    The Schlage B563 is an auxiliary deadbolt. There is no latch and no lever on it, so it takes its own bore above an existing lockset or passage set and adds a 1 inch throw deadbolt that only a key can throw. That is the right move when the door already has an acceptable lockset and you are adding key controlled security, or when the opening needs nothing more than the bolt. If you are hanging new hardware on an apartment or office entry and want the lever and the deadbolt to retract together in one motion from inside, an interconnected lock is the different animal to buy. The Falcon H2101 entrance function with single cylinder deadbolt is the Grade 2 option there.
    15) Will a Schlage B563 deadbolt hold up on a wood frame apartment or office door?
    The security package is aimed at that exact failure point. The bolt is solid zinc with a hardened steel anti-saw pin and throws 1 inch, and the lock ships with a metal dust box reinforcer that anchors into the frame with three 3 inch screws, which is what keeps a kick from tearing the strike out of a wood jamb. The cylinder collar free spins to resist wrenching and prying, and a removable security shield protects the bolt against an ice-pick attack through the door. It is a medium duty commercial deadbolt. One thing to weigh for multi-family: with the classroom function, a resident inside cannot throw this bolt, only retract it.
    16) What comes with a keyed Schlage B563, and what do I have to buy separately?
    A keyed B563 arrives as a complete single cylinder deadbolt: the zinc bolt with its 1 by 2-1/4 inch faceplate, the inside rose and turn, the outside cylinder on a 1 inch wrought brass or bronze trim ring with a security insert, the metal dust box reinforcer with three 3 inch screws, the 1-1/8 by 2-3/4 inch strike, and two cut keys, keyed different unless you specify otherwise. Order one of the less core versions, B SFIC, J FSIC, or L less conventional, and the cylinder or core is not in the box, you supply it from your own key system.
    17) Is the Schlage B563 deadbolt Buy American compliant and ADA acceptable for a government or school job?
    The B500 Series is stated as Buy American Act compliant, and the thumbturn is an ADA compliant design, which is what matters on the room side where the turn has to be operable without tight grasping, pinching, or twisting of the wrist. On the certification side it is ANSI/BHMA A156.5 Grade 2 with a conventional or FSIC cylinder, coded E0172.
    18) The existing bore is drilled at a 2-3/4 inch backset. Which deadbolts fit it?
    The Schlage B563 backset adjusts for 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inch, so it fits either bore. The Deltana CL200LA is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt built at a fixed 2-3/4 inch backset. If the bore is at 2-3/8 inch instead, the Accentra D111 is a Grade 1 single cylinder deadbolt at 2-3/8 inch. The Brinks Raleigh E2401 and Mendocino E2402 use a 4-way adjustable backset.
    19) What if the door does not need a key at all, just a thumbturn?
    The B Series covers that without a cylinder: the B580 door bolt is thumbturn by no exterior trim, and the B581 is thumbturn by blank rose, versus the keyed B563 classroom function. From other brands, the Arrow E60 is a Grade 2 exit deadlock, non-keyed, blank plate outside by thumbturn inside, for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Callan 205S is a Grade 3 one-sided half-bore deadbolt.
    20) Is there a single lock that combines a latchset and a deadbolt instead of adding a separate deadbolt?
    The Schlage B563 is a standalone deadbolt, cylinder outside and turn inside, installed above a separate latchset. The Falcon H2101 is an entrance interconnected lock that carries a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt in the same unit as the latch. That changes the door prep and the ordering: one unit and one bore pattern instead of a deadbolt bore plus a lockset bore.
    21) Can a mortise deadbolt go into the same door prep as the Schlage B563?
    No. The Schlage B563 is a bored deadbolt with a 1 by 2-1/4 inch square corner faceplate, a 1 inch housing diameter and an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, so it drops into a bored hole. The Dormakaba D900 small case mortise deadbolt and the Emtek 2050 and 2051 European mortise deadbolts with integrated roller latch need a mortise pocket cut into the door edge. The Arrow 460 is a mortise lock strike, not a lock.
    22) What finishes does the Schlage B563 deadbolt come in, and is there one for a healthcare facility?
    Eleven finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 609 antique 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 healthcare, 626AM is the antimicrobial version of the standard commercial satin chrome. Because the B500 Series suites with nearly all Schlage and Von Duprin product, the deadbolt can be matched to the locksets and exit devices already on the openings rather than standing out as a patch.
    23) Would an electronic deadbolt do the same job as the Schlage B563?
    They are not the same product. The Schlage B563 is mechanical and non-electronic, operated by a 6-pin conventional cylinder outside and a turn inside. The Delaney KP400 is a Grade 2 electronic deadbolt with a programmable remote, the Codelocks CL2200 is a medium duty electronic surface deadbolt that mounts on the door face rather than in a bore, and the Dormakaba Saffire LX-D is an RFID electronic deadbolt with BLE and electronic lock override.
    24) What deadbolt can be released from an access control system rather than a key?
    The Schlage B563 is a mechanical deadbolt, thrown and retracted by the key outside and retracted by the inside turn. Where the bolt has to be driven by a card reader or a remote release, the DynaLock 1300 Series is a heavy duty mortise electric deadbolt. The Codelocks CL2210 is an electronic mortise deadbolt. Both go into a mortise pocket, unlike the bored B563.
    25) Grade 2 is more than I need on an interior storage door. What is the step down?
    The Schlage B563 is a Grade 2, medium duty commercial deadbolt. Grade 3 single cylinder options include the Cal-Royal ED500 with an adjustable backset for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Cal-Royal LSD with an ADA ergonomic thumbturn over the same door range, and the Callan 200S with square trim. The Callan 200S-G2 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with round trim if the specification calls for Grade 2.
    26) The owner wants a decorative deadbolt on the front entry. What matches the look?
    The Schlage B563 covers eleven finishes including 613 oil rubbed bronze, 643E aged bronze, 622 matte black and 609 antique brass, in a round commercial trim. For a more ornamental entry, the Emtek 11 Tuscany is a lost wax cast bronze deadbolt, cylinder by thumbturn. The Baldwin Reserve contemporary round and square deadbolts are double cylinder, as is the Baldwin Estates 8011 contemporary at 1-5/8 inch.
