Schlage L9056R12A626RH – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the automatic unlocking entry/office function on the Schlage L9056R actually do at the door?
The latchbolt retracts from either side by lever unless the outside is locked by key or by the inside thumbturn. Once locked, the outside opens only with a key, and the inside lever always retracts the latch for immediate egress. The automatic unlocking part means closing the door releases the lock, so the office does not stay locked accidentally after someone pulls it shut behind them. It is a single cylinder keyed function, so there is one cylinder outside and a turn inside.
2) Will the Schlage L9056R mortise lock fit a 1-3/4 inch commercial door?
Yes, and only 1-3/4 inches. The L9056R is a single-thickness device, so thicker doors are outside its range. Backset is 2-3/4 inches, the standard commercial mortise backset, and the lock case mortises into the door edge at 4-7/16 x 6-1/16 x 1 inch. Confirm your existing pocket matches that case size before you swap it in.
3) Do I have to specify handing when ordering the Schlage L9056R?
Yes. It is a handed lock, ordered left hand or right hand, so you need to know which way the door swings and which side the lever sits on before you place the order. Get it wrong and the lever and lock orientation will not suit the opening.
4) Can the Schlage L9056R go on a fire rated door?
It is UL Listed for a 3 hour fire door and certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.13-2012, Grade 1, with ANSI function F04. That covers most commercial fire-rated openings in corridors and stairwells, paired with a self-closing device and the correct frame prep.
5) What strike comes with the Schlage L9056R and will it work in my existing frame?
It ships with the 10-072 square corner ANSI strike, 1-1/4 x 4-7/8 inches with a 1-3/16 inch lip, plus a box. If your frame already carries a standard 4-7/8 inch ANSI strike prep, the replacement drops straight in. Frames cut for a smaller T-strike will need filling or a new prep.
6) If the opening needs a classroom function instead of entrance/office, what mortise lock should be used?
The Schlage L9056R is an entrance/office function lock whose latchbolt is retracted by lever from either side unless the outside is locked by key or inside thumbturn. For a classroom opening, the Corbin Russwin ML2003 is a Grade 1 mortise classroom lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal NM8070 is a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch, also for 1-3/4 inch doors.
7) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to the Schlage L9056R entrance/office mortise lock?
The Cal-Royal NM8050 is the nearest match from another maker: it is a Grade 1 heavy duty entrance/office mortise lockset built for 1-3/4 inch doors, the same function class, grade, and door thickness as the Schlage L9056R, which is a Grade 1 heavy duty entrance/office mortise lock for 1-3/4 inch doors with a 2-3/4 inch backset.
8) Which mortise lock should I use if the door needs to stay locked from outside at all times rather than be unlocked by a thumbturn?
For a storeroom opening, the Accentra 8805FL is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock in the 8800 Series, and the Cal-Royal NM8080 is a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom mortise lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors with an interchangeable core option. The Schlage L9056R instead uses an entrance/office function that can be left unlocked by key or inside thumbturn.
9) Are the Baldwin 6301LS and 6310190RRLS interchangeable with the Schlage L9056R?
No. The Baldwin 6301LS entry/apartment and 6310190RRLS entry/storeroom lever mortise lock bodies use a 2-1/2 inch backset, while the Schlage L9056R uses a 2-3/4 inch backset, so the door prep differs. The 6301LS covers doors 1-3/4 inch and over and the 6310190RRLS 1-3/8 inch and over; the L9056R is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors.
10) What keyway and cylinder does the Schlage L9056R use, and can it go on our existing master key system?
It comes with a conventional 6-pin cylinder in the Schlage C keyway, which is the most common Schlage keyway and keys into an existing C system without changing the rest of the building's hardware. If your facility runs large format interchangeable cores, that is what the R designation covers on this lock.
11) What trim and finish does the Schlage L9056R come with?
It is supplied with the 03 lever on the A rose, in 626 satin chrome. The lever measures 4-3/4 inches long with 2-13/16 inches of projection, and the rose is 2-1/8 inches in diameter. Trim is zinc base. If you need the lever profile to match other openings, the 03 design is the plain straight-return Schlage lever.
12) Is the Schlage L9056R heavy duty enough for a high traffic office or apartment entry?
It is a Grade 1 commercial mortise lock rated heavy duty, with a lock case built from cold rolled steel with zinc dichromate plating. Grade 1 is the top ANSI/BHMA durability tier for commercial locksets, which is what you want on a leasing office, a main entry, or any door cycling all day.
13) Does the Schlage L9056R have a deadbolt?
No deadbolt. It is a latchbolt-only entry/office lock, secured by locking out the outside lever with the key or the inside thumbturn. If you need a bolt on a mortise prep, Sargent's 4874 is a double cylinder mortise deadbolt with a 2-3/4 inch backset, and Alarm Lock's DL4500 is a Grade 1 electronic mortise deadbolt.
14) Can I standardize a building on the L9056R and use other functions on the same door prep?
Yes. It is part of the Schlage L9000 mortise family, so the case size of 4-7/16 x 6-1/16 x 1 inch, the 2-3/4 inch backset, and the 4-7/8 inch ANSI strike prep stay constant across L Series functions. That lets you run storeroom, classroom, or privacy functions on other doors in the same building with one door and frame prep and one C keyway system.
15) Is there a non-keyed mortise lock alternative if the office door does not need a cylinder?
Yes. The Schlage L9056R is keyed with a single cylinder, a conventional 6-pin C keyway cylinder. Where no key is wanted, the Hager 3850E is a Grade 1 office mortise lock with lever and escutcheon in a non-keyed configuration with a 2-3/4 inch backset, matching the L9056R backset. For a completely free-swinging opening, the Falcon MA101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise passage lock.
16) What electronic mortise lock covers the same office application if credentials are wanted instead of keys?
The Schlage L9056R is a mechanical lock with no electronic components. For credential-based access on the same mortise prep, the Schlage Electronics LEBMB-ADD is a mobile-enabled mortise lock with push button and LED covering privacy, office, and apartment functions, rated Grade 2 with a 3-hour fire rating for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Schlage LEMD-GRW is a Grade 1 ENGAGE wireless mortise lock with a 125kHz proximity reader and 3-hour fire rating.
17) Can a Sargent 7925 be swapped in for a Schlage L9056R?
They are both Grade 1 heavy duty mortise locks, but the functions differ: the Sargent 7925 is a 7900 Series corridor/dormitory exit function lock with rose trim and a single cylinder deadbolt, while the Schlage L9056R is an entrance/office function where the latchbolt is retracted from either side unless the outside is locked by key or inside thumbturn. Confirm the door schedule calls for corridor/dormitory before substituting.
18) Does a Sargent 4874 mortise deadbolt do the same job as the Schlage L9056R?
No. The Sargent 4874 is a 4870 Series double cylinder mortise deadbolt with a 2-3/4 inch backset, a deadbolt only with no latchbolt or lever operation. The Schlage L9056R is a lever-operated entrance/office mortise lock with a latchbolt retracted by lever from either side, using a single cylinder. The backsets match at 2-3/4 inch, but the deadbolt cannot serve as the latching device for the opening.
19) For a behavioral health or anti-ligature opening, what replaces the Schlage L9056R lever?
The Schlage L9056R uses a standard lever handle. Where ligature resistance is required, the TownSteel MRX-L-01 is a Grade 1 heavy duty anti-ligature lever mortise lockset in stainless steel for 1-3/4 inch doors and the MRX-A-01 is the ligature resistant arch trim version, both passage function. The Marks USA 5PDN is a Grade 1 ligature resistant, ADA compliant hospital passage push/pull paddleset.
20) Is the Schlage L9056R an electronic or access control lock?
No. The L9056R is a purely mechanical keyed mortise lock, no wiring, no credentials, no power. If you want the same style of opening on card or keypad credentials, Schlage's CO-100 mortise and the ENGAGE LEMD wireless mortise are the electronic routes, and BEST's 45HW is a wired 12V/24V electromechanical mortise lock body.
21) Will a Schlage CO-100 mortise lock cover the same doors as the L9056R?
Only partly. The Schlage CO-100 standalone electronic mortise lock is Grade 1 heavy duty for 1-3/4 inch doors, the same grade, duty, and door thickness as the L9056R, but it is offered in a privacy function with a keypad reader rather than the L9056R entrance/office function with key and inside thumbturn control.
