Grade 1 Mortise Locks


Proven technology

The L Series is built to withstand the rigors of daily use without fail and is among the most durable, dependable and intelligent family of products on the market today. When you choose a Schlage lock you can have confidence you’ve chosen a solution that will provide protection at the most critical moments.

Comprehensive offering for every opening

Mechanical, wired electrified, wireless electronic and multi-point solutions allow a common aesthetic and consistent user experience throughout the building while lowering the total cost of ownership. And, with an extensive list of functions, keying, trim, levers and finish options the L Series works for any application.

L Mechanical Overview

The Schlage L Series has long been the benchmark for mortise locks. Beyond strength and security – it offers tremendous flexibility to allow it to meet the needs of most every application. The ability to suite across electronic, tubular, exit trim, and multi-point locks allows the Schlage L Series mortise lock to integrate seamlessly into any environment.

L Wired Electrified Overview

The wired electrified L Series is ideal for new construction and high traffic areas where hardwired power ensures continuous operation and where electrified door prep, hinges and wiring can easily be incorporated into the building. The electrified L Series is regularly used as part of an access control system for high security areas, or independently in areas that require a remote access switch.

LE Wireless Electronic Overview

The Schlage LE wireless mortise lock with ENGAGE™ technology is designed to affordably extend electronic access control deeper into the building beyond traditional perimeter and high security openings. The LE is ideal for commercial real estate, K-12, higher education, assisted living, medical offices, or multi-family applications. Facilities can benefit from the enhanced security, efficiency, and convenience of upgrading to electronic credentials

Schlage L462J 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the L462J handle left and right hand doors, or do I need to specify handing?
No handing to specify. The L462J is non-handed, so one part number covers left and right hand openings. That keeps stocking simple if you are doing a run of restroom or office doors across a building.
2) How does the Schlage L462J deadbolt operate, key outside and thumbturn inside?
The bolt throws by key or by thumbturn. On the L462J the cylinder side takes the key and the opposite side is a thumbturn, so someone inside can secure the door without a key while staff key in from the corridor. It is a deadbolt only, no latch and no lever, so the door needs separate passage hardware or a pull to operate it.
3) The L462J is listed as less core with a 6-pin FSIC. What do I have to order separately?
You have to supply the core. The L462J ships less core for full-size interchangeable core, so a locksmith or the facility keying program provides the FSIC core keyed into the existing system. The standard cylinder spec is a conventional 6-pin in the S123 keyway, which tells you the keyway to match when you order cores or have them combinated.
4) What strike comes with the Schlage L462J and will it drop into an ANSI frame prep?
It comes with the 10-079 strike, 1-1/8 x 3-1/2 inches with square corners plus a dust box, prepped to ANSI 115.5. If your hollow metal frame already has the standard ANSI 115.5 strike cutout, the strike lands in it. Frames prepped for the larger 1-1/4 x 4-7/8 ANSI curved lip strike will need filler or a different strike.
5) Is the L462J heavy duty enough for a school or hospital corridor door?
It is a Grade 1 commercial mortise lock, heavy duty, with a cold rolled steel case finished in zinc dichromate plating. The L400 small case line is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.36 Grade 1, and the ANSI function designation is E06071. For institutional standardization that puts it in the same grade tier as the rest of the Schlage L Series.
6) What is the closest alternative to the Schlage L462J if the door is not prepped for a mortise case?
The Schlage L462J is a mortise deadbolt with a 4-7/16" x 3-5/8" x 1" case, so it needs a mortise pocket in the door edge. If the door is bored rather than mortised, the Hager 3216 is a Grade 2 thumbturn by occupancy indicator deadbolt with a 1" throw listed for 1-3/4" doors, and the Accentra D292 is a Grade 2 cylindrical deadbolt with thumbturn and indicator function covering 1-3/8" to 1-3/4" doors. Both give you the same occupancy-indicating deadbolt behavior in a cylindrical prep.
7) I need an indicator lock for a restroom that also latches the door - is the Schlage L462J the right part?
The Schlage L462J is a deadbolt only, actuated by key or thumbturn, with no latchbolt to hold the door closed, so it is paired with separate passage trim. If you want one lock that latches and indicates, the Corbin Russwin CLX3320 NVSL is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty privacy/bed/bath visual status lever lock with indicator for 1-3/4" to 2" doors and carries a fire rating, and the Falcon H2171 is a Grade 2 public restroom interconnected lock with occupancy indicator and single cylinder deadbolt. The Accentra AUYPL02 is a Grade 1 privacy cylindrical lock with visual status indicator.
8) Which indicator deadbolt matches the Schlage L462J on Grade 1?
The Schlage L462J is Grade 1. Among indicator deadbolts, the Cal-Royal IND90-G2 series with ADA thumbturn is also listed Grade 1 with a thumbturn by indicator function. The Cal-Royal IND84 is Grade 3 and the Hager 3216, Accentra D292, Arrow E50 and Falcon D271 are Grade 2, so those sit at a lighter duty tier than the L462J.
9) How far does the deadbolt on the Schlage L Series mortise lock throw?
One inch of stainless steel deadbolt throw. That is the figure that matters if you are checking gap at the frame or specifying for a door in a wood frame where bolt engagement is the weak point.
10) What finishes does the Schlage L462J deadbolt come in, and can I match existing Schlage trim?
Nine finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze clear, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 619 satin nickel, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 629 bright stainless, and 630 satin stainless. Those are the standard BHMA numbers used across the Schlage L Series, so 626 or 630 on this bolt will read the same as 626 or 630 levers on the adjacent doors.
11) I need an occupancy indicator deadbolt but not in mortise. What else is out there?
Several bored and surface options cover the same vacant/occupied duty. The Arrow E50 is a Grade 2 non-keyed exit deadlock with a vacant/occupied indicator on the outside for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. Cal-Royal offers the IND90-G2 with an ADA thumbturn and the lighter IND84 at Grade 3. Falcon's D271 is a Grade 2 medium duty deadbolt with an occupancy indicator and inside thumbturn. The tradeoff against the L462J is grade and the keyed cylinder: only the Schlage here is Grade 1 and keyed for staff override.
12) Does the Schlage L462J work on a fire rated door?
The Schlage L Series carries UL 10C and CAN/ULC-S104 3-hour fire listings, covering A label single doors up to 4 by 10 feet and pairs up to 8 by 10 feet. Note that a deadbolt on a fire door still has to satisfy the egress requirements for that opening, so confirm the function against the code path before you spec it.
13) Are the Emtek indicator privacy bolts an alternative to the Schlage L462J?
They serve a different opening. The Emtek 8383 Wilshire, 8483 Watford, 8583 Square and 8683 Disk are thumbturn privacy bolts with double rosettes and an indicator, intended to be used with a brass passage set. The Schlage L462J is a commercial Grade 1 keyed mortise deadbolt operated by key or thumbturn, so on a door where a key override and a mortise case are required the Emtek bolts will not serve as a swap.
14) Which indicator deadbolts besides the Schlage L462J fit a 1-3/4 inch door?
The Schlage L462J is specified for 1-3/4" doors. The Hager 3216 thumbturn by occupancy indicator deadbolt is also listed at 1-3/4", the Accentra D292 and Arrow E50 cover 1-3/8" to 1-3/4", and the Corbin Russwin CLX3320 NVSL covers 1-3/4" to 2" if you have thicker leaves in the same run.
15) Is the Schlage L462J electrified or can it be tied into access control?
It is a mechanical lock, not electronic. For a hardwired opening Schlage offers electrified L Series functions, and the LE wireless electronic mortise lock covers credential-based access without running wire. The L462J itself is key and thumbturn only.
