Schlage Electronics 623RD EX – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Schlage 623RD EX push to exit button fit a single gang electrical box?
Yes. The 623RD EX mounts to a standard single gang box, which is the prep most request-to-exit buttons already sit in on a commercial opening. The button itself is a 1-5/8 inch mushroom head, so the head stands proud of the plate and can be hit with a forearm, an elbow or a gloved hand. If the door has a narrow stile and there is no room for a single gang plate, order the narrow stile option instead, which comes on a 1-3/4 x 4-1/2 inch stainless steel plate.
2) What voltage does the Schlage 623RD exit pushbutton run on and will it switch my maglock?
The 623 pushbutton is rated 12/24 VDC and the switch contacts carry 3A at 30 VDC, which covers the interrupt duty for typical low voltage electric locking, maglocks and strikes on a 12 or 24 volt supply. The illuminated LED draws .025A at 28 VDC over a 12-24 VDC range. The button is a dry switch, not a power supply, so the lock power still comes from your access control panel or power supply.
3) Should I order momentary, delayed action or maintained on a Schlage 623 push to exit button?
Momentary is the standard build and is what you want for ordinary egress: press it, the lock releases, it re-secures as soon as you let go. Delayed pneumatic action holds the release for an adjustable 0 to 60 seconds, which is the one to pick when someone has to push the button and then walk to the door, or wheel a cart through. Alternate action is maintained, so one press latches the state and the next press restores it, used for holding a door unsecured through a delivery window or an event. All three switch 3A at 30 VDC, and the delayed action version uses form Z contacts.
4) I need the exit button to trigger a door release and a camera or alarm shunt at the same time. Which Schlage 620 series option do I order?
Order the DPDT option, double pole double throw, which gives you two independent sets of switched contacts off one press. That lets one pole release the lock while the second shunts an alarm, signals the DVR, or drops a second opening. One restriction to plan around: DPDT cannot be combined with the delayed pneumatic action option, so if you need a timed hold you have to give up the second pole.
5) Is the red PUSH TO EXIT mushroom button big enough to be an ADA-friendly egress button?
The 623 uses a 1-5/8 inch mushroom head, a middle size in the family. If you need a larger target for a gloved hand, a wheelchair user or a low mounted button in a healthcare or multi-family corridor, the 625 steps up to a 2-3/4 inch mushroom button. The 621 goes the other way at 1-1/4 inches for a tidier plate. All three share the same stainless steel faceplate format.
6) What is the difference between the Schlage 623 and the 631 extreme duty pushbutton for a high abuse opening?
The 623 has a 1-5/8 inch mushroom button with a stainless steel faceplate and a translucent cone, so it can take the illuminated and glow-in-the-dark cone options. The 631 is the extreme duty answer: a 1-1/4 inch metal button on a zinc faceplate with a metal cone, no translucent element. For a school corridor, a loading dock or a detention-adjacent opening where the button gets abused, the metal 631 is the one to spec. Where you want the button findable in a dark stairwell, the 623 with an illuminated or glow cone is the better pick.
7) What is an alternative to the Schlage 623 illuminated exit pushbutton?
The Locknetics IPB-100 and IPB-100-N illuminated pushbuttons from the IPB Series are the cross-brand equivalent stocked alongside the Schlage 620 series. Where the Schlage 623 gives you the 1-5/8 inch mushroom head plus factory options for delayed action, maintained action and DPDT contacts, the Locknetics IPB is the straightforward illuminated button choice. If your spec calls out a specific switching behavior rather than just a momentary release, the 623 is where those options live.
8) I am replacing a worn out exit button on an existing single gang box. Do I have to rewire anything?
The 623 lands on the same single gang prep, so the box, the conduit and the plate opening stay as they are. Wiring is a low voltage switch leg: a momentary unit gives you a dry contact rated 3A at 30 VDC, which is how nearly every request-to-exit button on a 12 or 24 volt system is wired. Check what you are pulling out first, though. If the old button was a maintained or timed unit, a standard momentary 623 will not reproduce that behavior and you need the alternate action or delayed pneumatic action version to match it.
9) Can I get the Schlage exit pushbutton in a bronze or chrome finish to match the rest of my door hardware?
Four finishes are offered across the 620/631 heavy duty pushbuttons: 630 satin stainless steel as the standard, SF-626 satin chrome on heavy duty zinc, SF-625 bright chrome on heavy duty zinc, and SF-613 oil rubbed bronze on heavy duty zinc. The three SF finishes are plated over heavy duty zinc rather than stainless, which is what lets them match a bronze or polished chrome lockset across a lobby or a fleet of units.
10) Does the exit button have a status light, and what colors are available?
Three LED colors are offered on the heavy duty pushbuttons, green, yellow and red, running at 12-24 VDC and drawing .025A at 28 VDC. Integrators use them to show lock state or armed status at the button rather than making the user look at a separate annunciator. There are also 12 color and message combinations across multiple styles, so a red PUSH TO EXIT face like this one is one of a family that includes other legends and colors if you are standardizing signage across a building.
