HL6-9473 - DORM BEDROOM FUNCTION LOCK

  • Latchbolt retracted by paddle from either side;
  • Deadbolt actuation by outside key or inside thumbturn.


Schlage HL6 SERIES OVERVIEW

Hospitals and other healthcare environments have special requirements for noise reduction to help patients heal faster and staff perform more accurately and efficiently.

There are many sources of noise, but choosing quiet door hardware can help reduce excess noise and create quieter environments. The newly redesigned HL Series quiet hospital push/pull hardware offers a proven 50% quieter paddle operation than our previous product, providing healthcare organizations a reliable solution for noise reduction initiatives.

The HL Series includes a full line of solutions that deliver both superior quality and exceptional performance:

HL6

A durable and versatile latching solution. The traditional design has a short throw angle, allowing the door to be opened with an easy push or pull action, even when hands are not free.

PL7/PL8 privacy function

This patented design is ideal for restrooms or patient bathrooms. The privacy function is actuated by a thumbturn and an opposite side release provides for access in case of emergency.

HL6 mortise lock option

Combines the features and convenience of the HL6 push/pull operation with the Schlage L Series heavy-duty mortise lock.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

The HL Series of quiet push/pull latches are non-handed and UL listed for all single labeled metal or wood doors, making them ideal for healthcare applications, restrooms, commercial and institutional doors, including single fire doors. The short throw angle allows door opening with an easy push or pull action.

Quiet functionality

  • Dampened paddle action – depression and snap back – reduces noise associated with lock operation

Schlage SCH-HL6-9473-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How does the Schlage HL6-9473 dorm/bedroom function actually work on a patient or resident room door?
The latchbolt on the HL6-9473 retracts by paddle from either side, so anyone can push or pull through with an elbow or forearm. Security comes from a separate deadbolt, thrown by key from the outside or by thumbturn from the inside. It is a single cylinder keyed setup, so there is no key cylinder on the room side.
2) Will the HL6-9473 hospital latch fit my existing mortise pocket and strike prep?
It is a mortise lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset and uses the standard ASA strike to ANSI 115.1, 1-1/4 x 4-7/8 inches. If the door is already prepped for a standard ANSI mortise lock at 2-3/4 inch backset with an ASA strike in the frame, the prep lines up. Door thickness is 1-3/4 inches.
3) Can the HL6-9473 go on a fire-rated door?
The HL Series quiet push/pull latches are UL listed for all single labeled metal or wood doors, including single fire doors. For a pair of labeled doors, this is not the product to spec.
4) What other push/pull hospital latches could I use instead of the Schlage HL6-9473?
For a mortise lock body with the same 2-3/4 inch backset, the ABH 6600 Series hospital push/pull latch is the closest cross-brand equivalent. If you do not need a mortise lock and a tubular passage latch will do, look at the Trimco 1562A hospital series in heavy duty, or the ABH 6000 Series. Where door face projection is tight, ABH offers the low profile 6800 and the quiet 6800Q with a round cover. Note that a tubular passage latch gives you no deadbolt, so it is not a substitute for the dorm function.
5) What is the closest mortise-body alternative to the Schlage HL6-9473 hospital push/pull latch?
The ABH 6600 Series is the nearest mortise-based hospital push/pull latch, and like the HL6-9473 it is built on a 2-3/4 inch backset. The HL6-9473 carries the dormitory/bedroom function, with the latchbolt retracted by the paddle from either side and the deadbolt thrown by outside key or inside thumbturn; if you need that keyed deadbolt behavior, confirm the ABH 6600 is ordered in a matching function before substituting.
6) We only need a push/pull latch on a patient room door with no locking. What should we use instead of the HL6-9473?
For an opening that only needs latching, the Trimco 1562A hospital series push/pull latch is a passage-function, tubular unit with levers down, and it is rated heavy duty. The HL6-9473 is a keyed mortise lock with a single-cylinder dormitory function, so it is more hardware than a no-lock opening calls for - and it requires a mortise pocket rather than a tubular bore.
7) Is the Kaba Ilco 459 push/pull paddle a substitute for the Schlage HL6-9473?
No. The Kaba Ilco 459 Series is a push/pull paddle - trim hardware that operates an existing latch. The HL6-9473 is a complete mortise latching device with a dormitory function, an ASA strike per ANSI 115.1 at 1-1/4 inch by 4-7/8 inch, and a 2-3/4 inch backset. Use the 459 paddle when you are changing the operating trim on hardware already in the door, not when you are replacing the lock itself.
8) Do I need to specify handing when ordering the Schlage HL6 push/pull latch?
No handing to specify. The HL6 push/pull hardware is non-handed, and the paddles work in both the push and pull direction. Mounting can be vertical or horizontal depending on the application.
9) What ANSI function code is the Schlage HL6-9473?
F21 under ANSI/BHMA, the dormitory/bedroom function: paddle retracts the latch from both sides, deadbolt by key outside and thumbturn inside. If your spec sheet calls out F21 mortise with hospital push/pull trim, this is the match.
10) What options can I add to an HL6 hospital latch order?
Schlage lists these HL Series suffixes: B for brass base material on US26 and US260 finishes, E for handles engraved PUSH and PULL, EN for entrance only latch, EO for exit only latch, L for lead lined, and SOC for pin-in-socket security screws. Lead lining and security screws are the two most often missed on healthcare and behavioral health jobs.
11) Is a push/pull hospital latch a good choice for a noisy corridor of patient rooms?
That is the point of the redesigned HL Series. The paddle action is dampened on both depression and snap back, which Schlage rates at 50 percent quieter than their previous product, and it comes standard on all HL Series hardware. The short throw angle also means staff can open the door with a hip or forearm when hands are full.
12) Will the HL6 push/pull hardware match older Schlage hospital latches already on my other doors?
The HL6 keeps the traditional paddle design so it suites with existing installations, which matters when you are replacing hardware door by door rather than all at once. Finish is where the match is actually made, so order to the finish already on the floor, for example 630 satin stainless.
13) Noise reduction is the priority on our patient wing - what are the quiet push/pull options?
The Schlage HL6 hospital push/pull hardware uses a dampened paddle action on both depression and snap back and is a proven 50 percent quieter paddle operation than the prior Schlage design, and that comes standard across the HL Series including the HL6-9473. On the ABH side, the 6800Q is the quiet low profile hospital push/pull latch with a round cover. The difference in capability is the locking: the HL6-9473 is a keyed single-cylinder mortise lock in dormitory function.
14) For an ADA-driven hardware standardization across a facility, how does the HL6-9473 compare with the ABH 6000 Series?
The ABH 6000 Series is a push/pull hospital latch listed as ADA compliant. The HL6-9473 is non-handed, meets ANSI/BHMA F21, is heavy duty, and fits 1-3/4 inch doors, with paddle operation that opens the door on a push or pull when hands are not free. If your standard is a single keyed dormitory opening with a deadbolt, the HL6-9473 covers it; if the standard is latch-only push/pull across many doors, the 6000 Series is the simpler line to spec.
15) Which finishes does the Schlage HL6-9473 come in, and are antimicrobial versions available?
Eight finishes are orderable: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 629 bright stainless, and 630 satin stainless. Schlage also publishes antimicrobial variants of 626 and 630 (626AM and 630AM) in the HL Series finish range. Note that 625 and 605-family polished finishes use the B brass base material option.
16) Is the HL6-9473 an electrified lock, and what is it made of?
It is a purely mechanical latch, no electrification. Construction is zinc and steel, rated heavy duty for commercial use. Schlage does offer electrified functions elsewhere in the HL6 mortise line if you need one, but the 9473 is not it.
