Schlage L9070P 06B 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Schlage L9070 classroom mortise lock fit a 1-3/4 inch door with a 2-3/4 inch backset prep?
That is exactly what the L9070 is built for. It's a 2-3/4 inch backset mortise lock for 1-3/4 inch doors, with a lock case measuring 4-7/16 x 6-1/16 x 1 inches and a 1-1/4 x 8 inch armor front. If your door already carries a standard ANSI mortise pocket at 2-3/4 backset, the case drops straight in. On thicker doors you need to specify the door thickness option when ordering, and your trim choice narrows: the L cast/forged escutcheon covers 1-3/8 to 2-1/2 inch doors and the N wrought escutcheon covers 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch.
2) How does a classroom function mortise lock actually work when the teacher locks the door?
On the L9070, the outside lever is locked and unlocked only by key from the outside. There is no thumbturn and no inside locking button, so the teacher has to step into the corridor with the key to lock down the door. The inside lever is always free for immediate egress, and the auxiliary latch deadlocks the latchbolt once the door closes. If you want a lock that can be secured from inside the classroom, this F05 classroom function is not it, and you should look at an intruder or classroom-security function instead, such as the BEST 45HCA intruder lockbody or the Marks USA LA318GJ classroom security indicator lockset.
3) Is the Schlage L9070 handed, and do I have to know the door hand before I order?
Yes, the L9070 is handed, so you need the hand of the opening before you order. Stand outside the door on the side the key goes in: if the hinges are on your left it's a left hand (or left hand reverse if the door swings toward you), hinges on the right makes it right hand. Get this wrong on a keyed mortise lock and the lever and cylinder end up on the wrong faces.
4) Can I get the Schlage L9070 keyed into my existing school master key system?
You have seven cylinder routes on the L9070. Standard is P, a conventional 6-pin cylinder in the C keyway, and it can be ordered keyed different or keyed alike across multiple locks. If your campus runs small format interchangeable core, order B for SFIC less core prep, or H for 7-pin SFIC prep with a construction core. For Schlage full size interchangeable core, J is less core, R comes with a core in the S123 keyway, and T comes with a construction core. L is less conventional cylinder if your locksmith is supplying it. Any keyway or keying detail outside those, put it in the special keying field on the order.
5) Is a Schlage L9070 mortise lock approved for a 3-hour fire rated classroom door?
The L9000 mortise locks are UL listed for 3-hour fire doors, and UL/cUL listed for A label single doors up to 4 by 10 feet and pairs up to 8 by 10 feet. The letter F and the UL symbol stamped on the latch front are what your inspector looks for. The L9070 is also tested and certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.13 Grade 1 for both security and operational, and meets ADA requirements. Note the grade shifts with the cylinder you specify: full size interchangeable core drops security to Grade 2, small format interchangeable core to Grade 3, while operational stays Grade 1.
6) Will the L9070 latch into the strike that's already in my frame?
The L9070 ships with the 10-072 strike, a 1-1/4 by 4-7/8 inch square corner box strike with a 1-3/16 inch lip. If your frame is prepped for a standard ANSI mortise strike at that size, it lines up. Round corner frames or a different lip length mean you either reuse your existing strike or order the matching one, and the lip length has to suit how far the frame face sits proud of the door stop.
7) I need the classroom doors and the exit device doors on one key and one lever look. Will the Schlage L Series match?
All L Series levers suite with Von Duprin exit devices, and with the related L Series products LE, LM9200, LM9300 and LT. So a corridor with L9070 classroom mortise locks on some openings and Von Duprin devices on the stairwell doors can carry the same lever design and finish throughout. The L Series also suites across tubular, exit device and multipoint locks, which is what makes it workable for standardizing a whole building.
8) My door is 1-5/8 inches thick. Can I use the Schlage L9070 classroom lock?
No. The L9070 as catalogued is a 1-3/4 inch door lock, so a 1-5/8 inch door falls outside it. For that thickness in a classroom function, the Alarm Lock Trilogy DL2700CR and DL3500CR are Grade 1 electronic classroom mortise locks rated 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inches. On a thinner wood door around 1-3/8 inches, look at the Baldwin 6310 storeroom mortise body, which covers 1-3/8 inch and over, though that is a storeroom function rather than classroom.
9) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to a Schlage L9070 classroom mortise lock?
The Cal-Royal NM8070 is a heavy duty Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset with an auxiliary deadlatch, listed for 1-3/4 inch doors, which matches the L9070 classroom function, Grade 1 rating and 1-3/4 inch door thickness. The Corbin Russwin ML2003 of the ML2000 Series is also a Grade 1 mortise classroom lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors. Both are mechanical classroom-function mortise locks, so either lands in the same place on a corridor or classroom opening where the outside lever is locked and unlocked by key and the inside lever always retracts the latchbolt for egress.
10) What is the difference between a classroom mortise lock and a storeroom mortise lock on the same opening?
On the Schlage L9070 classroom function, the latchbolt is retracted by lever from either side unless the outside is locked by key, and the outside is unlocked again by key, so the outside lever can be left free during the day. A storeroom function keeps the outside trim fixed at all times and admits only by key: the Accentra 8805FL of the 8800 Series is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock with an Arcadia lever, and the Cal-Royal NM8080 is a heavy duty Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors with an interchangeable core option. Choose storeroom for a room that must never sit unlocked, classroom for one that is opened and secured on a schedule.
11) Is there a keyless classroom mortise lock that can replace a keyed L9070?
The L9070 is a mechanical, non-electronic lock operated by a conventional 6-pin C keyway cylinder. For a keypad-credentialed opening in the same classroom function, the Alarm Lock DL3500CR Trilogy is a Grade 1 electronic mortise lock with 300 user codes and classroom function for 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors, and the DL2700CR Trilogy T2 is a Grade 1 electronic mortise lock with classroom function and weatherproof design over that same door thickness range. The TownSteel FME-2000 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom mortise lockset with RFID technology for 1-3/4 inch doors if the facility issues cards rather than codes. Note the door thickness difference on the Alarm Lock units before ordering against a 1-3/4 inch door.
12) Which mortise locks look like a substitute for a Schlage L9070 but will not secure the door?
Several mortise units share the case and trim appearance without holding a key. The Falcon MA101 is a Grade 1 heavy-duty mortise passage lock with field reversible operation and a fire rating, so the lever always retracts the latch from both sides. The Hager 3810S and 3810E are 3800 Series Grade 1 passage mortise locks with a 2-3/4 inch backset, the 3810S with rose and the 3810E with escutcheon, both for 1-3/4 to 2-1/2 inch doors. The TownSteel MRX-L-01 and MRX-A-01 are Grade 1 heavy duty passage function ligature resistant mortise locksets for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Emtek 3102 Memphis, 3104 Hamilton, 3106 Manhattan and 3019 Brisbane mortise entrance locksets are dummy function, meaning fixed trim with no latch at all. None of these will do the work of the L9070's keyed classroom function.
13) What mortise lock should be specified instead of an L9070 for a restroom or a dormitory room?
The L9070 classroom function has no interior locking and no deadbolt, so it is wrong for a room the occupant secures behind them. For a restroom or bed and bath opening, the Cal-Royal NM8440 is a heavy duty Grade 1 privacy mortise lockset with deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 3840S is a 3800 Series Grade 1 privacy mortise lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors, which matches the L9070's 2-3/4 inch backset. For a dorm room, the Sargent 7925 is a Grade 1 heavy duty dormitory exit function mortise lock with rose trim and a single cylinder deadbolt in the 7900 Series.
14) What mortise lock fits a narrow stile aluminum storefront door where an L9070 will not?
The L9070 uses a 4-7/16 inch by 6-1/16 inch by 1 inch mortise case on a 1-3/4 inch door with a 2-3/4 inch backset, which is a hollow metal and wood door prep. For aluminum storefront, the Alarm Lock DL1300NW Trilogy Networx wireless electronic mortise lock with keypad is built for Adams Rite deadlatches, the Dormakaba E-Plex 2066 Series electronic pushbutton keyless mortise lock is a wide stile unit, and the Kaba Ilco BR Series is a glass door bottom rail lock. Those address the storefront and glass openings the L9070 case does not prep into.
15) How do the Grade 2 electronic mortise options compare with a Grade 1 L9070 for an apartment corridor?
The Schlage L9070 is a Grade 1 heavy duty commercial mortise lock. The Schlage Electronics LEBMB-ADD is a Grade 2 mobile-enabled mortise lock with push button and LED covering privacy, office and apartment functions on 1-3/4 inch doors with a 3 hour fire rating, and the Dormakaba LX-I-M002 Saffire is an electronic RFID mortise lockset with BLE mobile access at BHMA Grade 2. The Dormakaba E5086 E-Plex is a Grade 1 entry and egress electronic pushbutton and card back to back mortise lock. Where the spec on the drawing calls for Grade 1, the E5086 and the L9070 meet it and the two Grade 2 units do not.
16) What do I have to specify when ordering a Schlage L9070 besides the finish?
Four things decide the part number: cylinder option, finish, rose or escutcheon style, and keying. Finishes run 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. Trim is A or B wrought rose, L cast/forged escutcheon, or N wrought escutcheon. Keying is keyed different as standard, or keyed alike if you want a group of doors on one key. The lever is the 06 design, same lever, rose and finish on both faces, with the latch and strike to match.
17) What else could I buy instead of a Schlage L9070 for a classroom door?
Straight mechanical equivalents in the same Grade 1 classroom function: the Corbin Russwin ML2003 mortise classroom lockset and the Cal-Royal NM8070 heavy duty classroom mortise lockset, both rated for 1-3/4 inch doors like the L9070. If you want keypad or credential control instead of a brass key, the Alarm Lock DL3500CR Trilogy is a Grade 1 electronic classroom mortise lock for 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors, and the TownSteel FME-2000 is a Grade 1 RFID classroom mortise lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors. The L9070 itself is purely mechanical, no electronics.
18) Does the Schlage L9070 have a deadbolt?
No deadbolt on the L9070. It's a latchbolt-only classroom function, single cylinder, with an auxiliary latch that deadlocks the latchbolt once the door closes. That auxiliary deadlocking is what stops the latch being carded, but if you need a thrown bolt on the opening you need a different function or a separate mortise deadbolt such as the Sargent 4874 double cylinder mortise deadbolt with a 2-3/4 inch backset.
19) Is the Schlage L9070 heavy enough for a high traffic school or hospital corridor?
It's a heavy duty commercial mortise lock, Grade 1 to ANSI/BHMA A156.13 and built on cold rolled steel with zinc dichromate plating in the case. Schlage also builds in a security blocking hub that stops the lock being picked by pulling the levers. For behavioral health or corridors where ligature is a concern, the L Series offers ligature resistant trim options, and TownSteel's MRX-L anti-ligature mortise locksets are a Grade 1 alternative built for that specifically.
20) Does the Schlage L9070 meet Buy American Act requirements for a government or school project?
Yes, the L9000 mortise locks meet BAA (Buy American Act). They also carry Miami-Dade NOAs and Florida Building Commission listings, and are ANSI/ASTM F476-76 Grade 40 UL listed, which is what comes up on coastal and forced entry specs.
21) Can I upgrade a Schlage L9070 to a high security key system later?
Yes. A UL437 listed locking cylinder is optional on the L Series, specified as a Primus 20-500 Series cylinder. Because the L9070 takes a conventional 6-pin cylinder as standard, swapping the cylinder is the upgrade path, the lock case and trim stay where they are. If you go the interchangeable core route instead, remember the security grade with FSIC is Grade 2 and with SFIC is Grade 3, though operational stays Grade 1.
22) Which mortise lock replaces an L9070 on an office or suite door that should stay unlocked during business hours?
The L9070 classroom function locks and unlocks the outside lever by key only. For a door the occupant needs to secure from inside without a key, the Cal-Royal NM8050 is a heavy duty Grade 1 office and entrance mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 3850E is a 3800 Series Grade 1 office mortise lock with lever and escutcheon, non-keyed, 2-3/4 inch backset for 1-3/4 to 2-1/2 inch doors. The Baldwin 6301LS is an entry and apartment lever by lever mortise lock body with a 2-1/2 inch backset for doors 1-3/4 inch and over, a different backset than the L9070's 2-3/4 inch, so the door prep is not the same.
23) Can an electrified mortise lock be used in place of a mechanical L9070 for access control?
Yes, and there are several routes depending on how the opening is wired and credentialed. The Command Access ML190 Series is a heavy-duty motorized mortise lock with field selectable EL and EU operation on 24VDC and a storeroom function. The BEST 45HW Series is a heavy duty wired electromechanical mortise lock with 12V and 24V operation. For wireless, the Schlage Electronics LEMD-GRW is a Grade 1 ENGAGE Series wireless mortise lock with a 125kHz proximity reader, mobile enabled deadbolt with LED, Greenwich trim, right hand, carrying a 3 hour fire rating. All three require power or a network the mechanical L9070 does not, since the L9070 is a non-electronic keyed lock.
24) Which mortise lock suits a behavioral health room where an L9070 lever is not acceptable?
The L9070 uses an 06 lever design, a projecting lever. Where trim must not present a ligature point, the TownSteel MRX-L-01 is a stainless steel Grade 1 heavy duty anti-ligature lever mortise lockset in passage function for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the MRX-A-01 is the satin stainless steel ligature resistant arch trim version, also Grade 1 heavy duty passage for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Marks USA 5PDN is a Grade 1 hospital passage mortise push and pull paddleset in the 195 Series, ligature resistant and ADA compliant in satin stainless steel. All three are passage function, so they do not carry the keyed control the L9070 provides.
25) Will a mortise deadbolt work in place of an L9070 classroom lock?
No, a deadbolt alone does not latch the door. The L9070 is a non-deadbolt function whose auxiliary latch deadlocks the latchbolt when the door closes. The Sargent 4874 is a double cylinder mortise deadbolt with a 2-3/4 inch backset in the 4870 Series, the Kaba Ilco 185 Series is a deadbolt function mortise lock with no handing, and the Alarm Lock DL4500 Series is a Grade 1 electronic mortise deadbolt with 2,000 user codes and a privacy keypad for 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors. Each of those is a bolt to add above a latching lockset, not a replacement for one.
26) Which mortise locks are handed like the L9070 and which are field reversible?
The Schlage L9070 is a handed lock, so the hand of the opening has to be settled before the order goes in. Among mortise peers, the BEST 45H Series heavy duty mortise lock body in public entrance function is field reversible, and the Falcon MA101 Grade 1 heavy-duty mortise passage lock is field reversible as well. The Kaba Ilco 185 Series carries no handing. On the handed side, the Baldwin 6310190RRLS is specifically a right hand reverse entry and storeroom lever by lever mortise lock with a 2-1/2 inch backset, and the Schlage Electronics LEMD-GRW is a right hand unit.
27) Which mortise locks accept interchangeable cores the way the L9070 does?
The Schlage L9070 offers SFIC less prep core, 7-pin SFIC prep with construction core, Schlage FSIC less core, FSIC with core in S123 keyway, FSIC with construction core, a conventional 6-pin C keyway cylinder, and a less conventional cylinder option. Among peers, the Cal-Royal NM8080 heavy duty Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset is offered with an interchangeable core option, and the BEST 45HZ EZ Series electronic keypad mortise lock carries a key override function. If a facility is already keyed on one core system, the cylinder prep is the field to settle before comparing anything else on the lock.
28) Which classroom mortise lock works on a door thinner than 1-3/4 inches?
The Schlage L9070 is built for a 1-3/4 inch door. For a thinner classroom opening, the Alarm Lock DL2700CR Trilogy T2 and the DL3500CR Trilogy are Grade 1 electronic mortise locks with classroom function rated for 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors, so they cover the thinner range as well as 1-3/4 inch. Measure the leaf at the lock edge before ordering, since the classroom mechanical options from Cal-Royal and Corbin Russwin are both listed at 1-3/4 inch.
