Schlage 47272024 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Which Schlage locksets does the 47272024 spring latch work with?
The 47272024 is built for the Schlage ALX Series lockset. It is a manufacturer-matched replacement, with the 1 inch housing diameter that seats correctly in ALX lock bodies. If the lock you are servicing is a different Schlage line, this is not the latch for it.
2) Does the 47272024 latch faceplate have square or radius corners?
Square corners, 2-1/4 x 1-1/8 inches. That matters because the door edge mortise is cut to match: a square corner plate will not sit flush in an edge routed for a radius corner latch without recutting the corners. Check the existing plate on the door before ordering.
3) What is the difference between the Schlage 47272024 spring latch and the Kwikset 84290 square corner plain latch?
Both are square corner plain latches, but they are set up for different door prep. The Schlage 47272024 is a commercial unguarded spring latch with a 2-3/4 inch backset, a 2-1/4 inch by 1-1/8 inch square corner faceplate and a 1 inch housing diameter, built to fit Schlage ALX Series locksets. The Kwikset 84290 is a square corner plain latch with a 2-3/8 inch backset and a UL listing. If the door is bored at 2-3/4 inches, the 84290 backset will not reach the spindle hub.
4) I need a latch that can go either 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 backset - what should I use instead of the Schlage 47272024?
The Schlage 47272024 is a fixed 2-3/4 inch backset latch for ALX Series locksets, so it cannot be adjusted down. If you need one part to cover both common bore dimensions, the Deltana DLP23875 is a drive-in latch with an adjustable backset of 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch for passage and privacy functions, and fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. The Deltana DLE23875 is the entry-function drive-in equivalent for the same door thickness range. Note both Deltana parts are drive-in style rather than faceplate-mounted.
5) What does "unguarded" mean on this Schlage spring latch, and where should it not be used?
Unguarded means the latchbolt has no deadlatching plunger beside it. It is a plain spring latch for straightforward latching on interior and commercial openings. On an exterior or otherwise security-sensitive door you want a deadlatch (guarded) latch instead, because a plain latch can be shimmed. The 47272024 is the unguarded version.
6) What finishes does the Schlage 47272024 latch come in to match my existing lever trim?
Nine finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613E dark oxidized satin bronze, 619 satin nickel, 622 matte black, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome and 643E aged bronze. Only the faceplate shows once installed, so order the finish that matches the lock trim already on the opening.
7) What is the simplest drive-in alternative if the door has no mortised faceplate pocket?
The Schlage 47272024 uses a 2-1/4 inch by 1-1/8 inch square corner faceplate, which needs a mortised pocket in the door edge. Where the edge is not mortised, a drive-in latch avoids that prep: the Deltana DLE23875 is a drive-in latch in entry function and the Deltana DLP23875 is the passage and privacy version, both with adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. These are Deltana parts, so they are not a match for a Schlage ALX chassis.
8) I need a fire-rated latch, not the Schlage 47272024 - what are my options?
The Schlage 47272024 is described as a commercial-grade unguarded spring latch for ALX Series locksets and is sold as a replacement part. If your opening requires a latch carrying a UL 3 hour listing, the Kwikset 83518 RCAL adjustable square drive latch and the Kwikset 83521 RCAL plain latch both carry a UL 3 hour listing, and the Kwikset 84290 square corner plain latch with 2-3/8 inch backset is also UL listed. Those are Kwikset chassis parts, so confirm the lockset brand on the door before ordering.
9) Will the Emtek 83228 square corner faceplate work with the Schlage 47272024 latch?
No. The Emtek 83228 is a faceplate and screws for a tubular pocket door privacy latch with square corners, sold as a parts item for that pocket door application. The Schlage 47272024 already includes its own 2-1/4 inch by 1-1/8 inch square corner faceplate sized to the 1 inch latch housing for Schlage ALX Series locksets. Square corners alone do not make two faceplates interchangeable; the plate must match the latch housing and the door mortise.
10) Is the Schlage 47272024 a residential or commercial latch?
Commercial. It is catalogued by Schlage as a commercial replacement part for ALX Series hardware, which is the line used in offices, schools, healthcare, retail and multi-tenant buildings. For standardizing latch spares across a facility, this is the ALX-matched part.
11) Do I need to replace the strike when I put in a new 47272024 latch?
Usually not. A like-for-like ALX latch swap at the same 2-3/4 inch backset puts the latchbolt back in the same position, so the existing strike and frame prep stay put. Order a strike only if the original latch was a different backset or a different corner style and the door or frame prep is being changed.
12) Can I use the Emtek LC9-DBLTCH in place of the Schlage 47272024?
No, they do different jobs. The Emtek LC9-DBLTCH is an EMPowered motorized deadbolt latch, a deadbolt-function component for a motorized lock. The Schlage 47272024 is a spring latch, the beveled retracting latch that a knob or lever throws, supplied for Schlage ALX Series locksets. A deadbolt latch does not retract with a lever and will not restore knob or lever operation on an ALX opening.
