Schlage LV9456P 06A 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Schlage LV9456 mortise lock fit a 1-3/4 inch door?
That is the door thickness the LV9456 is built for, 1-3/4 inches, which is the standard commercial door. It runs a 2-3/4 inch backset, so the mortise pocket has to be cut to that centerline. The lock case itself measures 4-7/16 x 6-1/16 x 1 inches. On thicker doors the L Series does offer door thickness options, but the LV9456 as configured is a 1-3/4 inch lock.
2) What does the corridor function on a Schlage LV9456 actually do at the door?
Corridor, or F13, works like this: either lever retracts the latchbolt at any time. The deadbolt is thrown or retracted by the outside key or the inside thumbturn. Throwing the deadbolt locks the outside lever. Turning the inside lever pulls both the deadbolt and the latchbolt and unlocks the outside lever again, and the inside lever is always free, so you get immediate egress even with the deadbolt thrown. That combination is why it is used on dorm rooms and corridor doors where someone inside needs to secure the room but never needs a key to get out.
3) What is Vandlgard on the Schlage LV9456 and why would I spec it?
Vandlgard is Schlage's free-wheeling outside trim. When the outside lever is locked it spins freely instead of resisting, so somebody hanging on it or kicking down on it does not transmit that force into the lock case. It is the option you want on dorms, schools, and any high abuse corridor opening where the locked lever gets abused. The LV prefix on LV9456 is what tells you the lock is built with it.
4) Do I need to specify handing when ordering a Schlage L Series LV9456 mortise lock?
No handing to specify. The LV9456 lock case is field reversible, so the same lock covers left and right hand openings and you adjust it on site. That is a real advantage for a property manager stocking spares, since one part number covers every door in the building.
5) What cylinder and keyway comes with the Schlage LV9456, and can I get it less cylinder?
Standard is a conventional 6-pin cylinder in the C keyway, ordered as the P cylinder option. If your locksmith is supplying cores or you are keying into an existing system with your own cylinders, order the L option, less conventional cylinder, and drop the cylinder from the order. Keying is chosen at the order too: keyed different is standard, or keyed alike if you want a group of these to run on one key. Note that with interchangeable core cylinders instead of the conventional one, the security rating changes: FSIC cores give Grade 1 operational with Grade 2 security, and SFIC cores give Grade 1 operational with Grade 3 security.
6) Is the Schlage LV9456 fire rated for a 3 hour door?
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 an inspector looks for. It also meets ADA requirements, carries Miami-Dade NOAs and Florida Building Commission listings, and meets the Buy American Act, which matters on federal and institutional jobs.
7) Will the Schlage LV9456 latch into the strike prep already in my frame?
It ships with the 10-072 strike, 1-1/4 by 4-7/8 inches, square corner, 1-3/16 inch lip length, with a box. If your frame already has a square corner ANSI 4-7/8 inch strike cutout, that drops straight in. Lip length is the one to measure against your jamb and stop condition, since 1-3/16 inches is what comes in the carton. Armor front is 1-1/4 by 8 inches, so the edge prep needs to match that too.
8) Should I use a corridor mortise lock or a classroom or storeroom function instead?
Pick by who needs to lock the door and from which side. The LV9456 corridor function lets the occupant secure the door from inside with a thumbturn and still walk out in one motion. A classroom function, like the Corbin Russwin ML2003 or the Cal-Royal NM8070, locks and unlocks the outside lever by key only, which is what you want when staff control the door and occupants should not. Storeroom, like the Accentra 8805FL or Cal-Royal NM8080, keeps the outside lever locked at all times and requires a key every entry, which suits closets and mechanical rooms. If nobody needs to lock it at all, a passage function such as the Falcon MA101 is the right part.
9) What is the closest equivalent to a Schlage LV9456 corridor mortise lock from another manufacturer?
The Sargent 7925 is the nearest peer in function. It is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise lock listed with a corridor/dormitory function, rose trim and a single cylinder deadbolt, which is the same combination the LV9456 provides: a Grade 1 mortise lock with corridor function, single cylinder keyed, on a 2-3/4 inch backset. The difference is the trim behavior. The LV9456 carries Schlage Vandlgard free-wheeling outside trim, so the outside lever rotates freely when locked instead of resisting force, and the Sargent 7925 is specified with rose trim without that free-wheeling feature.
10) The opening does not need a deadbolt, just a keyed lever that stays locked. What mortise lock covers that instead?
A storeroom function lock is the one to specify. 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 keeps the outside lever locked at all times with key entry only and no deadbolt to throw. The LV9456 is a corridor function: the latchbolt retracts by lever from either side until a deadbolt is thrown by key outside or thumbturn inside, and throwing that deadbolt is what locks the outside lever. If nobody is going to be throwing a bolt, the deadbolt function is doing nothing for the opening.
11) For a classroom door rather than a corridor door, what mortise lock should be used instead of the LV9456?
Specify a classroom function lock. The Corbin Russwin ML2003 is a Grade 1 mortise classroom lockset in the ML2000 Series for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal NM8070 is a Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch, also for 1-3/4 inch doors. Both match the LV9456 on Grade 1 and on the 1-3/4 inch door thickness it is built for. The functional split is that classroom locking is done by key at the outside lever, while the LV9456 corridor function locks the outside lever by throwing a deadbolt from key outside or thumbturn inside.
12) Can I match Schlage LV9456 levers to the exit devices and other locks on the rest of my openings?
Yes, and this is the reason a lot of specifiers land on the L Series. All L Series levers suite with Von Duprin exit devices and with the related LE, LM9200, LM9300 and LT products, so an office door, a stair door with a panic, and a corridor door can carry the same lever and finish. The lock also suites across tubular, exit device and multipoint locks. Nine lever designs are offered here, 01, 02, 03, 05, 06, 07, 12, 17 and 18, across four trim designs: A and B wrought roses, the L full face escutcheon and the N escutcheon.
13) Is the Schlage LV9456 tough enough for a high traffic dorm or school corridor?
Heavy duty, Grade 1 for both security and operational under ANSI/BHMA A156.13-2012 Series 1000, and Schlage states the L9000 exceeds those Grade 1 levels. On the deadbolt functions there is an anti-saw pin in the bolt to stop cut-through, and a security blocking hub that prevents picking the lock by pulling the levers off. Add the free-wheeling Vandlgard outside lever and this is the configuration built for exactly that abuse.
14) I need a keyed mortise lock but my building uses electronic access. Is the LV9456 an option?
No, the LV9456 is a purely mechanical lock, no electronics in it. If the opening needs credential access, look at the Schlage Electronics LEMD-GRW, a Grade 1 ENGAGE wireless mortise lock with a 125kHz proximity reader and a 3 hour fire rating, or the CO-100 standalone keypad mortise lock. Where the L Series still helps is keying: you can run mechanical LV9456 locks on the interior corridor doors and electronic locks on the perimeter, and the mechanical ones key into the same C keyway system.
15) Can I get a group of Schlage LV9456 locks keyed alike on one key?
Yes. Keying is selected on the order: KD keyed different is the standard, KA keyed alike puts a group of locks on a single key, and there is a free text field for special cylinder or keying requirements if you are pinning into an existing masterkey system or need a specific keyway other than the standard C. If your locksmith supplies the cores, order the L less cylinder option instead and skip the factory keying entirely.
16) Can I upgrade the security cylinder on a Schlage L Series mortise lock?
A UL437 listed locking cylinder is available on the L Series, specified as a Primus 20-500 Series cylinder in place of the standard conventional 6-pin C keyway cylinder. That is the route to a pick and drill resistant, patent controlled key on a corridor opening. The LV9456 is a single cylinder lock, so there is one keyed side, outside, with the thumbturn inside.
17) Is a Sargent 4874 mortise deadbolt a substitute for a Schlage LV9456?
No. The Sargent 4874 is a double cylinder mortise deadbolt on a 2-3/4 inch backset, which is a bolt only, with no latchbolt and no lever operation. The LV9456 is a mortise lock with a lever handle where the latchbolt retracts from either side and the deadbolt is a second bolt operated by key outside or thumbturn inside. The two share a 2-3/4 inch backset, but the 4874 will not latch a door or carry trim. Kaba Ilco 185 Series mortise locks are also a deadbolt function and land in the same category: bolt hardware, not a latching lockset.
18) Which mortise lock replaces the LV9456 if the door needs a keypad or credential reader?
The LV9456 is a mechanical, non-electronic lock, so an access control opening moves to a different product. The Schlage CO-100 is a Grade 1 heavy duty standalone electronic mortise lock with a keypad reader for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Schlage Electronics LEMD-GRW is a Grade 1 ENGAGE Series wireless mortise lock with a 125kHz proximity reader and a mobile-enabled deadbolt with LED, fire rated 3 hours. TownSteel FME-2000 is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise lockset with RFID for 1-3/4 inch doors. All three keep the mortise prep and Grade 1 rating the LV9456 carries; what changes is that credentials replace the key cylinder as the primary means of entry.
19) Can a Baldwin 6301 mortise lock body be swapped into a door prepped for a Schlage LV9456?
The backsets do not agree. The Baldwin 6301 entry/apartment mortise lock bodies, in both the knob by knob and the lever by lever versions, are 2-1/2 inch backset for doors 1-3/4 inch and over. The LV9456 is a 2-3/4 inch backset lock with a 4-7/16 by 6-1/16 by 1 inch case, a 1-1/4 by 8 inch armor front and a 10-072 1-1/4 by 4-7/8 inch square corner box strike with 1-3/16 inch lip. Moving between the two means a different pocket location and a different strike prep, so it is not a drop-in either direction.
20) What is a simpler mortise lock for a door in the same run that does not need to lock at all?
Passage function covers it. The Falcon MA101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise passage lock in the MA Series, fire rated and field reversible, and the Hager 3810S and 3810E are Grade 1 3800 Series passage mortise locks on a 2-3/4 inch backset, the 3810S with rose trim and the 3810E with escutcheon. The 2-3/4 inch backset on the Hager 3810 matches the LV9456, and the LV9456 is likewise field reversible, so a mixed run of corridor and passage openings can share the same door prep and handing approach. Passage has no cylinder and no deadbolt at all.
21) For a behavioral health or patient room, is the LV9456 the right mortise lock or is there a ligature resistant option?
For anti-ligature openings, look at the TownSteel MRX-L-01, 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 with satin stainless ligature resistant arch trim in the same passage function and thickness, or the Marks USA 5PDN, a Grade 1 hospital passage mortise push/pull paddleset that is ligature resistant, ADA compliant and satin stainless steel. Those are passage function, so they do not lock. The LV9456 is a keyed corridor lock with a deadbolt, and Schlage does offer ligature resistant trim within the L Series for behavioral health applications, so the choice is between a purpose-built anti-ligature passage set and a keyed L Series lock specified with that trim.
22) How does the Schlage LV9456 compare to a BEST 45H public entrance mortise lock body?
Both are heavy duty mortise locks and both are field reversible. The BEST 45HCAC is a 45H Series heavy duty mortise lock body with public entrance function and field reversible operation, and the related 45HCAINL is a heavy duty 45HCA mortise lockbody with intruder function. Two things separate them from the LV9456. First is function: public entrance keeps the outside lever locked or unlocked by key with no deadbolt, while the LV9456 corridor function throws a deadbolt by key outside or thumbturn inside and that deadbolt is what locks the outside lever. Second, the BEST items are lock bodies, where the LV9456 is supplied as a complete keyed lever lock with a conventional 6-pin C keyway cylinder and matching lever, rose and finish on both faces.
23) An electronic classroom lock is specified but the doors are 1-3/4 inch. Which electronic mortise locks match that thickness?
Check the thickness range carefully, because it varies. The TownSteel FME-2000 and FME-4000 are Grade 1 heavy duty classroom mortise locksets with RFID for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the FME-4000 adds electronic intruder classroom function. The Alarm Lock Trilogy DL2700CR and DL3500CR are Grade 1 classroom electronic mortise locks for doors 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch, so 1-3/4 inch falls inside their range as well. The LV9456 itself is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors, so any of these keeps the same door thickness the mechanical lock was built around.
24) What replaces the LV9456 on an opening that needs to be electrified for access control while staying mechanical at the lever?
The Command Access ML190 Series motorized mortise lock is the closest fit, a heavy-duty storeroom function mortise lock with field selectable EL/EU operation on 24VDC. The BEST 45HW Series is a heavy duty wired electromechanical mortise lock with 12V/24V operation. The LV9456 as specified is not electronic, though the Schlage L Series does include electrified functions that auto detect 12V/24V DC with customer-selectable EL/EU and offer RX, DPS, latchbolt monitor and deadbolt monitor. So the decision is whether to stay in the L Series and specify an electrified function, or move to a peer lock body already built as electrified.
25) What finishes does the Schlage LV9456 mortise lock come in?
Eight finishes are offered on the LV9456: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 609 antique brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome and 630 satin stainless steel. For matching existing openings in a commercial building, 626 satin chrome and 630 satin stainless are the two you will most often find already installed. The lock case underneath is cold rolled steel with zinc dichromate plating regardless of which trim finish you pick.
26) Which mortise lock is right for a bathroom or bedroom door where the LV9456 would be overkill?
Privacy function is the correct specification there. 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 on a 2-3/4 inch backset for doors 1-3/4 to 2 inch. Both are Grade 1 like the LV9456, and both are thumbturn-operated inside without a keyed outside cylinder, where the LV9456 is a keyed single cylinder lock with a conventional 6-pin C keyway cylinder for controlled entry from the corridor side.
27) Are the Emtek Brisbane and Memphis mortise entrance locksets alternatives to a Schlage LV9456?
They are not. The Emtek 3019 Brisbane, 3102 Memphis, 3104 Hamilton and 3106 Manhattan mortise entrance locksets are all dummy function, meaning fixed trim with no latch and no locking mechanism, used on an inactive leaf or a decorative pull. The LV9456 is a keyed corridor lock with a working latchbolt and a deadbolt operated by key outside or thumbturn inside. The Falcon MESC600DT is likewise dummy escutcheon lever trim, made for M9900 Series exit devices rather than for a mortise lock case.
28) Does a Marks USA 21AC or 22AC ornamental iron mortise lock fit the same doors as a Schlage LV9456?
No, the door thickness rules it out. The Marks USA 21AC and 22AC entrance double cylinder ornamental iron mortise locks with round knob are built for 1 inch doors, which is storefront and ornamental iron territory. The LV9456 is built for a 1-3/4 inch door with a 4-7/16 by 6-1/16 by 1 inch case, and it is a single cylinder keyed lever lock rather than a double cylinder knob set.
29) Is a Sargent 130KB or 130W mortise thumbturn a replacement part for the inside thumbturn on an LV9456?
Those are separate trim items, not LV9456 parts. The Sargent 130KB is a standard duty mortise thumbturn in the 8200 Series and the 130W is a standard duty mortise thumbturn with a round backplate in the 7800 Series, both sized to Sargent lock cases. The LV9456 is supplied as a complete lock with the inside thumbturn that retracts the deadbolt, in a matching lever, rose and finish set for both faces, across finishes from 605 bright brass through 630 satin stainless steel.
