Schlage L9456P 02A 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the corridor function on the Schlage L9456 mortise lock actually do at the door?
The L9456 is a corridor (deadbolt) function. The latchbolt retracts by lever from either side, so the door is normally push-pull operation. The deadbolt is thrown or retracted by key outside or by the inside thumbturn, and throwing the deadbolt locks the outside lever. Turning the inside lever retracts both bolts at once and unlocks the outside lever, so the inside is always free for immediate egress. That combination is what dorm rooms, patient rooms and apartment corridors typically call for.
2) Will the Schlage L9456 fit a 1-3/4 inch door with a 2-3/4 inch backset prep?
Yes. The L9456 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 measures 4-7/16 x 6-1/16 x 1 inches and the armor front is 1-1/4 x 8 inches. If your doors are thicker than 1-3/4 inches, that is a different option build, not this one.
3) Does the Schlage L9456 come with a strike, and will it work with my existing ANSI frame cutout?
It ships with the 10-072 strike, 1-1/4 x 4-7/8 inches, square corner, with a 1-3/16 inch lip and a box. That is the standard square-corner ANSI strike size, so it drops into a frame already prepped for a 4-7/8 inch mortise strike. Frames with radius-corner prep need a radius strike instead.
4) Can I order the Schlage L9456 to take our existing SFIC or Schlage full-size interchangeable cores?
Yes. Four cylinder options are offered: P for a conventional 6-pin cylinder in the C keyway, J for Schlage FSIC prepped less core, B for SFIC less prep core, and L for less conventional cylinder. If you key your building on small format cores, order B and supply your own cores; if you run Schlage FSIC, order J. Note the grading changes with cores: the lock is Grade 1 operational and Grade 1 security with a conventional cylinder, Grade 2 security with FSIC, and Grade 3 security with SFIC.
5) Is the Schlage L9456 approved for a fire-rated corridor door?
The L9000 latch is UL listed for a 3-hour fire door, and the series is UL/cUL listed for A label single doors up to 4 by 10 feet and pairs to 8 by 10 feet. The F letter and UL symbol stamped on the latch front identify the listing. It is ANSI/BHMA A156.13-2012 Series 1000 Grade 1 operational and Grade 1 security, and levers with a 1/2 inch or less return to the door meet ADA and California Referenced Standards Code requirements.
6) What are the alternatives to the Schlage L9456 if I need a different mortise function on the same door?
Same 1-3/4 inch mortise opening, different job. For a storeroom door that stays locked outside, the Accentra 8805FL Grade 1 with Arcadia lever or the Cal-Royal NM8080 Grade 1 storeroom (interchangeable core option) fit. Classroom function is the Corbin Russwin ML2003 Grade 1 or Cal-Royal NM8070. Office/entrance is the Cal-Royal NM8050. The closest peer to the corridor deadbolt function is the Sargent 7925 dormitory exit function, Grade 1 heavy duty with rose trim and a single cylinder deadbolt.
7) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to the Schlage L9456 corridor mortise lock?
The Sargent 7925 is the nearest peer: it is a Grade 1 heavy duty corridor/dormitory function mortise lock with rose trim and a single cylinder deadbolt, matching the L9456's Grade 1 corridor function with a single cylinder keyed deadbolt. Both give you a latchbolt operated by lever from either side with a separately thrown deadbolt on one cylinder.
8) If the opening does not need a deadbolt, what mortise lock should be used instead of the L9456?
The L9456 is a corridor function with a deadbolt thrown by key outside or inside thumbturn. Where the door only needs a keyed latch, the Cal-Royal NM8080 is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset with an interchangeable core option, and the Accentra 8805FL is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock with Arcadia lever. For a fully non-keyed door, the Falcon MA101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise passage lock with field reversible operation.
9) Is a Sargent 4874 mortise deadbolt a substitute for the Schlage L9456?
No. The Sargent 4874 is a double cylinder mortise deadbolt on a 2-3/4 inch backset, so it provides bolt only with no lever or latchbolt. The L9456 combines a latchbolt retracted by lever from either side with the deadbolt in one 4-7/16 x 6-1/16 x 1 inch case on a 2-3/4 inch backset. The 4874 would be used alongside a separate latch set, not in place of the L9456.
10) Will a Baldwin 6301 mortise lock body drop into the same prep as a Schlage L9456?
No. The Baldwin 6301 entry/apartment mortise lock body is a 2-1/2 inch backset unit for doors 1-3/4 inch and over, while the L9456 uses a 2-3/4 inch backset on 1-3/4 inch doors with a 10-072 1-1/4 by 4-7/8 inch square corner box strike with a 1-3/16 inch lip. The quarter-inch backset difference means the cylinder and spindle centerline do not line up with an L Series prep.
11) What mortise lock should be used when the room needs to be locked from inside during a lockdown instead of the L9456?
The L9456 corridor function locks the outside lever only when the deadbolt is thrown by key or thumbturn, and turning the inside lever retracts both bolts and unlocks the outside lever. For dedicated lockdown hardware, the BEST 45HCA heavy duty mortise lockbody is offered in intruder function, and the TownSteel FME-4000 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty electronic intruder classroom mortise lockset with RFID for 1-3/4 inch doors.
12) Can I get several of these Schlage corridor locks keyed alike for one building?
Keying is a required selection: keyed different (the standard), keyed alike for multiple locks, or none if you are ordering a less-cylinder build to key in house. The lock is single cylinder, so one key operates the deadbolt from the outside and a thumbturn handles it inside. Special keyway or master keying requirements can be entered as text with the order.
13) What lever and trim do I get on this L9456, and will it match the other Schlage openings in our building?
This build is the 02 lever design, same lever, rose and finish on both sides, with matching latch and strike. Rose and escutcheon choices are A wrought rose, B wrought rose, N escutcheon, or L full face escutcheon. Twelve finishes run from 605 bright brass and 606 satin brass through 613 oil rubbed bronze, 619 satin nickel, 622 matte black, 625 and 626 chrome, 629 and 630 stainless, 612 satin bronze, 609 antique brass and 643E aged bronze. L Series levers also suite with Von Duprin exit devices and with LE, LM9200, LM9300 and LT trim, so a mixed opening set can be matched.
14) Is the L9456 a better choice than a separate mortise deadbolt above a latch lock?
For a corridor or dorm opening it does the job in one case: latch plus deadbolt in a single 4-7/16 x 6-1/16 x 1 inch mortise body, with the inside lever retracting both bolts together for single-motion egress. A standalone deadbolt such as the Sargent 4874, a double cylinder mortise deadbolt on a 2-3/4 inch backset, requires a second operation to exit and is used where an auxiliary bolt is added to an existing latch rather than where egress code governs.
15) Is the Schlage L9456 tough enough for high-traffic multi-family and institutional corridors, and is it Buy American compliant?
It is a heavy duty commercial lock with a CRS lock case with zinc dichromate plating. Deadbolt functions carry an anti-saw pin in the bolt to stop cut-through, and a security blocking hub prevents picking the lock by pulling the levers. It meets the Buy American Act and carries ANSI/ASTM F476-76 Grade 40 plus Miami-Dade NOAs and Florida Building Commission listings.
16) What electronic mortise lock can be specified in place of the mechanical Schlage L9456?
The L9456 is a non-electronic keyed mortise lock. For access control on the same style of opening, the Schlage Electronics LEMD-GRW is a Grade 1 ENGAGE wireless mortise lock with a 125kHz proximity reader and a mobile enabled deadbolt with LED, 3-hour fire rated, with Greenwich trim in right hand. Standalone options include the BEST 45HZ EZ Series electronic keypad mortise lock with key override and the Dormakaba E-Plex 2066 electronic pushbutton keyless mortise lock.
17) For a privacy or restroom door, what mortise lock is used instead of the L9456 corridor function?
The L9456 deadbolt is keyed from the outside with an inside thumbturn, which is a corridor arrangement rather than privacy. For restrooms and bedrooms, the Cal-Royal NM8440 is a Grade 1 privacy mortise lockset with deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 3840S is a Grade 1 privacy mortise lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset for doors 1-3/4 to 2 inches, which shares the L9456's 2-3/4 inch backset.
18) Do I need the full L9456 lockset if I only need the thumbturn or the lock body?
The L9456 ships as a complete corridor mortise lock with the 02 lever, rose or escutcheon trim, and the 10-072 box strike. If the existing lock body is sound and only the inside thumbturn is failing, the Sargent 130KB standard mortise thumbturn from the 8200 Series and the Sargent 130W mortise thumbturn with round backplate from the 7800 Series are sold as thumbturns alone. If only the case needs replacing on a BEST opening, the 45HCAC is a heavy duty mortise lock body in public entrance function with field reversible operation.
19) For a behavioral health room, is the L9456 the right mortise lock or is there an anti-ligature option?
The L9456 uses a conventional 02 lever, which is a projecting handle. Where ligature resistance is required, the TownSteel MRX-L-01 is a Grade 1 heavy duty stainless steel anti-ligature lever mortise lockset in 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 in satin stainless steel. All three are passage rather than keyed corridor function.
20) Which mortise locks match the L9456 on 1-3/4 inch doors with a 2-3/4 inch backset?
The L9456 is built for 1-3/4 inch doors on a 2-3/4 inch backset. Hager's 3800 Series shares that backset: the 3810S passage with rose and 3810E passage with escutcheon cover 1-3/4 to 2-1/2 inch doors, and the 3850E office function with lever and escutcheon is non-keyed over the same 1-3/4 to 2-1/2 inch range. Cal-Royal's NM8050 office/entrance with auxiliary deadlatch is a Grade 1 lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors.
21) Are Emtek mortise entrance locksets an alternative to the Schlage L9456?
No. The Emtek 3019 Brisbane, 3102 Memphis, 3104 Hamilton and 3106 Manhattan mortise entrance locksets are all dummy function, meaning trim only with no operating latch or bolt. The L9456 is a Grade 1 keyed corridor lock with a working latchbolt and deadbolt. A dummy set would only be used on an inactive leaf beside an L9456 opening.
22) If the doors are 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch thick, can the L9456 still be used?
The L9456 as configured is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors. If you are covering a range of door thicknesses, Alarm Lock's Trilogy mortise locks are listed for 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors, including the DL2700CR classroom function weatherproof model, the Grade 1 DL3500CR classroom lock with 300 user codes, and the Grade 1 DL4500 electronic mortise deadbolt with 2,000 user codes and privacy keypad. Those are keypad electronic locks rather than mechanical keyed sets.
23) We need electric locking on a mortise opening rather than the mechanical L9456 - what are the options?
The L9456 is a mechanical non-electronic lock. For electrified mortise cases, the BEST 45HW is a wired electromechanical mortise lock with 12V/24V operation, and the Command Access ML190 Series motorized mortise lock offers field selectable EL/EU operation at 24VDC in storeroom function. Both are heavy duty like the L9456.
24) Do I need to specify handing when ordering the Schlage L9456?
The lever, rose and finish are the same on both sides of the door, with the latch and strike supplied to coordinate. What you do need to pin down on the order is the cylinder option (P conventional 6-pin C keyway, J Schlage FSIC less core, B SFIC less prep core, or L less cylinder), the keying (KD, KA, or none), the rose or escutcheon, and the finish.
