Schlage L9044 Privacy Mortise Lock with Coin Turn Outside and Vacant/Occupied Indicator
The L9044 is a Grade 1 commercial mortise lock for privacy applications requiring a visible occupancy indicator. The latchbolt retracts from either side unless the outside lever is locked by the inside thumbturn or outside coin turn. Actuating the inside lever, closing the door, or rotating the outside coin turn unlocks the outside lever. A 180-degree VACANT/OCCUPIED indicator on the exterior trim provides at-a-glance occupancy status - suited for restrooms, hotel rooms, exam rooms, and similar single-occupancy spaces.
