Schlage L9071R17A626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How does the Schlage L9071 classroom security function actually work from inside the room?
With the L9071, the deadbolt is thrown or retracted by key from either side, and throwing the deadbolt locks the outside lever. The latchbolt is retracted by the lever from either side, so anyone inside can always get out even with the deadbolt thrown. That is what makes it a classroom security lock: a teacher can lock the corridor side from inside the room with a key, without stepping into the hallway.
2) Will the Schlage L9071R mortise lock fit a 1-3/4 inch commercial door?
Yes, 1-3/4 inches is exactly what the L9071R is built for, and it is a single-thickness lock rather than a range. The case mortises into the edge of the door and measures 4-7/16 x 6-1/16 x 1 inch, so the door needs a mortise pocket cut to that size. Backset is 2-3/4 inches. If your doors are thicker or thinner, this is not the right body.
3) Do I have to specify handing when ordering an L9000 Series classroom security mortise lock?
No. The L9071R lock body is field reversible, so the same lock handles left or right hand doors and you can flip it on site. That is useful for a property manager stocking spares, since one part covers every opening in the building.
4) Is this Schlage mortise lock approved for a fire rated door?
Yes. The L Series lock is UL Listed for a 3 hour fire door, ANSI/BHMA A156.13-2012 certified, and Commercial Grade 1 with an F33 function designation. For a school or healthcare facility standardizing openings, that covers the usual stair and corridor fire door requirements.
5) Is there a simpler classroom mortise lock than the Schlage L9071R for a school corridor door?
Yes. The Cal-Royal NM8070 is a heavy duty Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset with an auxiliary deadlatch for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Corbin Russwin ML2003 is a Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset in the ML2000 Series, also for 1-3/4 inch doors. Both are plain classroom function. The Schlage L9071R is a classroom security function with a double cylinder deadbolt that is thrown or retracted by key from either side, which is what lets staff secure the outside lever from inside the room.
6) What should I use instead of the Schlage L9071R if the opening needs keypad or credential access?
For a keyless classroom opening, the TownSteel FME-2000 is a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom mortise lockset with RFID technology for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the FME-4000 is an electronic intruder classroom mortise lockset with RFID, also Grade 1 heavy duty for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Alarm Lock DL3500CR is a Grade 1 electronic mortise lock with classroom function and 300 user codes for 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors. The Schlage L9071R is a non-electronic mechanical lock keyed with a conventional 6-pin C keyway cylinder.
7) What strike comes with the Schlage L9071 and will it work in my existing frame prep?
The standard strike is the 10-072, a 1-1/4 x 4-7/8 inch square corner strike with a box and a 1-3/16 inch lip. That is the common ANSI square corner strike prep, so it drops into frames already cut for a square corner mortise strike. Frames with radius corner prep need a radius corner strike instead.
8) What lever and rose choices do I need to pick for the L9071R?
Trim is ordered separately from the function. The L9071R comes with 02, 06, 07 or 17 lever designs, all on the A wrought rose, in 626 satin chrome. Pick the lever style that matches the rest of the building so the new classroom openings look like the existing ones.
9) Do I need two cylinders for the Schlage L9071R classroom security lock?
Yes, it is a double cylinder keyed function, keyed on both sides so the deadbolt can be operated from the corridor or from inside the room. Budget two large format IC cores per opening when you order.
10) What size pocket do I need to cut if I am converting a door to this Schlage mortise lock?
The lock case mortises into the edge of the door and measures 4-7/16 x 6-1/16 x 1 inch, with a 2-3/4 inch backset for the lever and cylinder holes. On a bored-prep door there is no shortcut here: the door has to be machined for a mortise case, and it needs to be 1-3/4 inches thick.
11) What is the difference between the Schlage L9071R and a storeroom mortise lock like the Accentra 8805FL?
Function. The Accentra 8805FL is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock in the 8800 Series, and the Cal-Royal NM8080 is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors with an interchangeable core option. Storeroom function keeps the outside lever locked at all times, requiring a key for every entry. The Schlage L9071R is classroom security: the latchbolt is retracted by the lever from either side, and the deadbolt is thrown or retracted by key from either side, with throwing the deadbolt locking the outside lever. Choose storeroom for a closet or supply room and classroom security for a room that stays open in normal use but must be locked down from inside.
12) Can a Sargent 4874 mortise deadbolt replace the Schlage L9071R?
No. The Sargent 4874 is a double cylinder mortise deadbolt with a 2-3/4 inch backset and no latchbolt or lever trim, so it only bolts the door and cannot be used as the operating hardware. The Schlage L9071R combines both in one mortise case measuring 4-7/16 by 6-1/16 by 1 inch: the latchbolt is retracted by the lever from either side for normal traffic, and the double cylinder deadbolt is thrown or retracted by key from either side. If the opening already has lever trim and only needs a bolt, the 4874 fits; if it needs one lockset doing both, the L9071R does.
13) Which mortise locks can carry the same large format interchangeable core keying as the Schlage L9071R?
Among mortise locksets built for interchangeable cores, the Cal-Royal NM8080 is a heavy duty Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset offered with an interchangeable core option for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the BEST 45H Series heavy duty mortise lock body is a public entrance function body with field reversible operation. The Schlage L9071R is field reversible as well and ships standard with a conventional 6-pin C keyway cylinder, with the large format IC core version ordered for facilities already standardized on removable cores. Confirm core format and keyway with your locksmith before mixing brands on one key system.
14) Is the Schlage LE Series mobile-enabled mortise lock a direct swap for the L9071R?
Not a direct swap. 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, while the LEMD-GRW is a Grade 1 ENGAGE Series wireless mortise lock with a 125kHz proximity reader and a 3 hour fire rating. Both are credential-driven. The L9071R is a mechanical Grade 1 classroom security lock, ANSI/BHMA F33, keyed on both sides with a double cylinder deadbolt, and it is not electronic, so no power, credentials or access software are involved.
15) What mortise lock should I use for a behavioral health or ligature-resistant opening instead of the Schlage L9071R?
The TownSteel MRX-L-01 is a Grade 1 heavy duty anti-ligature lever mortise lockset in stainless steel with passage function for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the MRX-A-01 is the same passage function with satin stainless ligature resistant arch trim. The Marks USA 5PDN is a Grade 1 hospital passage mortise push/pull paddleset that is ligature resistant and ADA compliant in satin stainless steel. All three are passage function with no key. The Schlage L9071R uses conventional lever trim and is keyed with a double cylinder deadbolt.
16) Will a Baldwin 6310 mortise lock work in the same door prep as the Schlage L9071R?
No. The Baldwin 6310 entry/storeroom mortise lock body uses a 2-1/2 inch backset and fits doors 1-3/8 inch and over, and the 6301 entry/apartment body is also 2-1/2 inch backset for doors 1-3/4 inch and over. The Schlage L9071R uses a 2-3/4 inch backset on 1-3/4 inch doors, so the cylinder and spindle centerlines do not line up with a Baldwin 2-1/2 inch prep. Match the backset to the existing mortise pocket before ordering.
17) Is the L9071 lock body durable enough for a high traffic school corridor?
It is a heavy duty, Grade 1 commercial lock body built from cold rolled steel with zinc dichromate plating for corrosion resistance. Grade 1 is the highest ANSI/BHMA durability tier and is what institutional specs normally call for on classroom and corridor doors.
18) How does the Schlage L9071R compare to the BEST 45HCA intruder function mortise lock body?
The BEST 45HCA is a heavy duty mortise lockbody with intruder function, and the BEST 45H is a heavy duty public entrance body with field reversible operation. Both are lock bodies. The Schlage L9071R is a complete classroom security lockset with lever trim, ordered in 626 satin chrome with 02, 06, 07 or 17 levers on an A wrought rose, on a heavy duty Grade 1 mortise case of 4-7/16 by 6-1/16 by 1 inch in cold rolled steel with zinc dichromate plating. If you are replacing only the case in an existing BEST opening, a body is the right order; for a full opening, the L9071R arrives with trim.
19) If the room only needs a non-keyed mortise lock, what replaces the Schlage L9071R?
For non-keyed openings, the Falcon MA101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise passage lock with field reversible operation and a fire rating, the Hager 3810S is a Grade 1 passage mortise lock with rose on a 2-3/4 inch backset for 1-3/4 to 2-1/2 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal NM8440 is a Grade 1 privacy mortise lockset with deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Schlage L9071R is keyed, with a double cylinder deadbolt operated by key from either side, so it is the choice only where key control is required.
