Schlage L9070P 05B 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Schlage L9070 classroom function actually do at the door?
On the L9070, the latchbolt retracts by lever from either side unless the outside lever is locked by key. Only a key unlocks or locks the outside lever, there is no inside thumbturn on this function. The inside lever is always free for immediate egress, and an auxiliary latch deadlocks the latchbolt when the door closes. That is the F05 classroom function, so a teacher has to step into the corridor with a key to lock the door.
2) Will the Schlage L9070 mortise lock fit a 1-3/4 inch door with a 2-3/4 inch backset prep?
Yes. The L9070 is built for 1-3/4 inch doors with a 2-3/4 inch backset, which is the standard commercial mortise prep. The lock case is 4-7/16 x 6-1/16 x 1 inches and the armor front is 1-1/4 x 8 inches. If your door is thicker than 1-3/4 inches, the door thickness has to be specified as an option rather than taken as standard.
3) Do I have to specify handing when ordering an L9070 classroom mortise lock?
Yes, the L9070 is a handed lock, so you need to give the hand of the opening when you order. Stand outside the door: if it is hinged on your left and swings away, that is left hand. Getting it wrong means a lever that does not orient correctly on the door.
4) Will the L9070 work with my existing strike prep in a hollow metal frame?
The L9070 ships with a 10-072 strike, 1-1/4 x 4-7/8 inches, square corner, box type, with a 1-3/16 inch lip. That is the standard ANSI mortise strike footprint, so it drops into a frame already prepped for a square corner mortise strike. Frames with radius corner prep need a curved corner strike instead, and the lip length should be checked against your frame reveal.
5) Can I get the L9070 to take our existing small format interchangeable core keys?
Yes. Four cylinder choices are offered: B for SFIC less prep core, J for Schlage FSIC less core, L for less conventional cylinder, and P for a conventional 6-pin cylinder in the C keyway. Pick B if you key your building on SFIC and want to drop in your own cores. Note the grading changes with the core: with FSIC cores the lock is Grade 1 operational and Grade 2 security, with SFIC cores Grade 1 operational and Grade 3 security.
6) Is the Schlage L9070 approved for a fire rated classroom door?
Yes. The L9000 series is UL listed for 3-hour fire doors (the exceptions are the L9076 and L9077, not the L9070), and UL/cUL listed for A label single doors up to 4 x 10 feet and pairs to 8 x 10 feet. The letter F and the UL symbol on the latch front identify the listing. The lock is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.13, Grade 1 security and operational, and meets ADA requirements.
7) What is a direct equivalent to the Schlage L9070 classroom mortise lock from another manufacturer?
The Corbin Russwin ML2003 is a Grade 1 mortise classroom lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors, matching the L9070's Grade 1 classroom function and 1-3/4 inch door thickness. The Cal-Royal NM8070 is another heavy duty Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors. All three give you the classroom operation where the latchbolt is retracted by lever from either side unless the outside is locked by key, with the inside lever always free for immediate egress.
8) We want to lock a classroom door from the inside during a lockdown. Is the L9070 the right function?
No. The L9070 classroom function is unlocked and locked from the outside by key only, so staff must step into the corridor to secure the door. For inside-secure operation, the BEST 45HCA with intruder function and the TownSteel FME-4000 electronic intruder classroom mortise lockset are built for that application; the FME-4000 is Grade 1 heavy duty for 1-3/4 inch doors with RFID technology. The Marks USA LA318GJ is a Grade 1 classroom security indicator mortise lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors if you also want visual status at the door.
9) Which rose or escutcheon should I pick for an L9070 on a door thicker than 1-3/4 inches?
Four trim styles are offered on the L9070: A and B wrought rose, L cast/forged escutcheon, and N wrought escutcheon. The L escutcheon covers doors from 1-3/8 to 2-1/2 inches and the N escutcheon covers 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inches, so on a thick door the escutcheon choice is what constrains you. Trim is furnished with the same lever, rose and finish on both faces.
10) What finishes does the Schlage L9070 come in so I can match the rest of the building?
Twelve finishes are offered on the L9070: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 609 antique brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 619 satin nickel, 622 matte black, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 629 bright stainless, 630 satin stainless, and 643E aged bronze. 626 satin chrome and 630 satin stainless are the usual institutional standards. The 05 lever also suites with Von Duprin exit devices and the related LE, LM9200, LM9300 and LT products, so corridor openings can be matched.
11) L9070 classroom or L9080 storeroom for a school corridor door?
Use the L9070 classroom function where staff need to leave the door unlocked during the day and lock it from the corridor with a key. The outside lever stays free until keyed locked. A storeroom function keeps the outside lever locked at all times and a key retracts the latch on every entry, which suits mechanical rooms and closets rather than classrooms. If you want lockdown from inside the room, the classroom function alone will not do that, you would look at an intruder function lock such as the BEST 45HCA intruder lockbody.
12) What are the alternatives to a Schlage L9070 if I need a Grade 1 classroom mortise lock from another brand?
Two straight mechanical equivalents we carry are the Corbin Russwin ML2003 Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset and the Cal-Royal NM8070 Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset, both listed for 1-3/4 inch doors like the L9070. If you want a classroom lock with credential access instead of a key, the TownSteel FME-2000 is a Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset with RFID, and the Alarm Lock DL3500CR is a Grade 1 electronic classroom mortise lock, though that one is specified for 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors.
13) Does the Schlage L9070 have a deadbolt?
No. The L9070 is a single cylinder keyed lock with a latchbolt only, no deadbolt. Security comes from the auxiliary latch that deadlocks the latchbolt once the door is closed. If the opening needs a deadbolt as well, look at a dormitory or entry function with a bolt, such as the Sargent 7925 Grade 1 dormitory exit function mortise lock with a single cylinder deadbolt.
14) Can I order multiple L9070 locks keyed alike for a building?
Yes. Keying is a required selection: keyed different (standard), keyed alike for multiple locks, or none if you are ordering a less cylinder option to use your own cores. There is also a field for special cylinder or keying requirements, which is where a masterkey bitting or an existing system keyway gets specified. The stock cylinder is a conventional 6-pin in the C keyway. A UL437 listed cylinder is available by specifying a Primus 20-500 Series cylinder.
15) Is there an access-control version of a Schlage mortise lock if we later want to network the classroom doors?
Yes. The Schlage Electronics LEMD-GRW is a Grade 1 ENGAGE Series wireless mortise lock with a 125kHz proximity reader and a 3 hour fire rating, and the Schlage CO-100 is a Grade 1 heavy duty standalone electronic mortise lock with a keypad reader for 1-3/4 inch doors. The mechanical L9070 is a non-electronic Grade 1 classroom lock, so moving to either of these is a lock body change, not a trim swap.
16) What mortise lock should I use instead of the L9070 for a door that should stay locked at all times from the outside?
Storeroom function is the one you want. The Accentra 8805FL is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock with an Arcadia lever, and the Cal-Royal NM8080 is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors with an interchangeable core option. The L9070 classroom function differs in that the outside lever can be left unlocked by key for as long as you want, then relocked by key.
17) What is the non-keyed alternative to the L9070 for an office or interior door?
If no key is needed, the Hager 3850E is a Grade 1 non-keyed office mortise lock with lever and escutcheon on a 2-3/4 inch backset, matching the L9070's 2-3/4 inch backset. The Cal-Royal NM8050 is a Grade 1 office/entrance mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch for 1-3/4 inch doors. For a latch with no locking at all, the Falcon MA101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise passage lock with field reversible operation. The L9070 is a keyed single-cylinder lock.
18) Does the L9070 include a deadbolt, and what should I order if I need one?
No, the L9070 is a non-deadbolt classroom function with a latchbolt and auxiliary latch that deadlocks the latchbolt when the door is closed. If a deadbolt is required, the Sargent 7925 is a Grade 1 heavy duty corridor/dormitory mortise lock with rose trim and a single cylinder deadbolt, the Cal-Royal NM8440 is a Grade 1 privacy mortise lockset with deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Sargent 4874 is a double cylinder mortise deadbolt on a 2-3/4 inch backset that matches the L9070 backset.
19) Is the Emtek 3102 Memphis mortise entrance lockset a substitute for the L9070?
No. The Emtek 3102 Memphis is a dummy function mortise entrance lockset, meaning it does not latch or lock at all, and the Emtek 3019 Brisbane, 3104 Hamilton and 3106 Manhattan are dummy function as well. The L9070 is a Grade 1 keyed classroom mortise lock with a working latchbolt and auxiliary latch. Use the Emtek dummy sets only on an inactive leaf.
20) My door is 2 inches thick. Will the L9070 work, and what else fits?
The L9070 is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors. For thicker doors, the Hager 3810E and 3810S passage mortise locks cover 1-3/4 to 2-1/2 inch, the Hager 3840S privacy mortise lock covers 1-3/4 to 2 inch, and the Baldwin 6301 entry/apartment lever by lever mortise lock body is listed for 1-3/4 inch and over on a 2-1/2 inch backset.
21) We need a ligature resistant mortise lock for a behavioral health corridor. Can we use the L9070?
The L9070 is a Grade 1 classroom lock with a standard 05 lever design. For behavioral health, the TownSteel MRX-L-01 is a Grade 1 heavy duty stainless steel anti-ligature lever mortise lockset with passage function for 1-3/4 inch doors, the MRX-A-01 is the same passage function with satin stainless ligature resistant arch trim, and the Marks USA 5PDN is a Grade 1 hospital passage mortise push/pull paddleset that is ligature resistant and ADA compliant. Note those three are passage function and do not key.
22) Is the Schlage L9070 heavy duty enough for a high traffic institutional opening, and what is the lock case made of?
It is a commercial heavy duty mortise lock certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.13-2012 Series 1000, Grade 1 operational and Grade 1 security. The case is cold rolled steel with zinc dichromate plating. A security blocking hub prevents picking the lock by pulling the levers. It also meets the Buy American Act, which matters on government and public school work.
23) What is the difference between the L9070 and the BEST 45H public entrance mortise lock?
The BEST 45H is a heavy duty public entrance function mortise lock body with field reversible operation, where the outside lever is locked and unlocked by a thumbturn or key stop rather than classroom key control. The L9070 is a Grade 1 handed classroom lock in which the outside lever is locked and unlocked only by key and the inside lever is always free for egress.
24) Can I use the Command Access ML190 in place of the L9070 for an electrified opening?
The Command Access ML190 is a heavy duty motorized mortise lock with storeroom function, field selectable EL/EU operation and 24VDC power, so it is an electrified storeroom lock rather than a mechanical classroom lock. The L9070 is a Grade 1 non-electronic classroom function lock on a 2-3/4 inch backset. The BEST 45HW wired electromechanical mortise lock with 12V/24V operation is another heavy duty electrified option.
