Schlage PM026 Grade 1 Exit Lock with Cylinder Mortise Lock - Athens Lever

Overview

Grade 1, Mortise Locks Purpose-built to serve the commercial real estate, retail, multifamily and hospitality industries, Schlage Performance Series™ locks feature exceptional quality and style at a highly competitive price point. The PM Series offers 26 functions, including three electrified, and four mortise deadbolt functions, all made to meet Schlage’s rigorous quality standards. With popular levers and finish options, Schlage's full key system security line up, and its durable design, you can meet needs for both security and style. They are made to suite with other Allegion products to present a quality, complete door hardware solution and provide a consistent user experience throughout your building or complex. Better yet, you can suite the PM Series mortise locks with the PT Series tubular locks, as they share lever and rose styles.

Schlage PM026P ATHA 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Schlage PM026 mortise lock fit a door thicker than 1-3/4 inches?
Standard thickness for the PM026 is 1-3/4 inches, and it will go as thin as 1-3/8 inches. It can be built for doors up to 2-1/2 inches thick, but anything over 1-3/4 inches has to be specified at time of order along with the lock position in the door, and that oversize build is only available in the EE configuration. Don't order a standard unit and expect to shim it into a 2 inch door.
2) What backset does the Schlage PM026 mortise lock use, and will it work in an existing mortise pocket?
Backset is 2-3/4 inches, and that is the only backset offered on the PM Series, so a pocket cut for a 2-3/8 inch backset is not a candidate. The case measures 4-7/16 x 6-1/16 x 1 inch (113 x 154 x 25 mm). One thing to watch on retrofit: PM Series case and cover holes differ from Schlage L Series, so pulling an L Series body out does not guarantee the PM drops straight in.
3) Do I have to order the Schlage PM026 handed, or can I reverse it in the field?
Handing is field reversible on the PM026, so one part number covers left and right hand openings. For a property manager stocking spares across a building, that means fewer SKUs sitting on the shelf.
4) What cylinder options do I specify when ordering the Schlage PM026?
Five cylinder choices: less small format interchangeable core (B), less full size interchangeable core (J), less conventional 6-pin cylinder (L), conventional 6-pin keyed 5 (P), or FSIC supplied with a construction core (T). If your building is already on an SFIC or FSIC key system, order the less-core version and drop in your own cores. The construction core option is the one to take on new construction where the trades need access before the permanent keying is issued.
5) I need a storeroom or classroom function instead of passage. What should I order?
The PM026 is a passage-function lock, so it is the wrong call if you need the outside to stay locked. The PM Series itself carries 26 functions plus four mortise deadbolt functions, so the same trim and finish can be had in the function you need. Across other brands we stock, Cal-Royal's NM8080 is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset with an interchangeable core option and the NM8070 is the classroom version, both for 1-3/4 inch doors; Corbin Russwin's ML2003 is a Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset; Accentra's 8805FL is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock.
6) What is a cross-brand equivalent to the Schlage PM026 for a Grade 1 mortise passage opening?
The Falcon MA101 is the closest match. Like the Schlage PM026, it is a Grade 1 mortise lock with a passage/hall/closet function and field reversible handing, and the MA101 is listed as fire rated. The PM026 is a Grade 1 mortise lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset, field reversible handing, and an Athens lever on A, C, or D rose or N escutcheon. Confirm lever and finish match the rest of the openings before substituting.
7) Is there a Grade 1 mortise passage lock that works on doors thicker than 1-3/4 inch?
The Hager 3810S and 3810E are Grade 1 passage mortise locks with a 2-3/4 inch backset and a listed door thickness range of 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/2 inch; the 3810S uses rose trim and the 3810E uses an escutcheon. The Schlage PM026 lists 1-3/4 inch door thickness and the same 2-3/4 inch backset, and is also offered with rose or N escutcheon trim.
8) For a behavioral health or detention opening, what passage mortise lock should I use instead of the Schlage PM026?
TownSteel's MRX-L-01 and MRX-A-01 are the anti-ligature choices. Both are Grade 1 heavy duty passage/hall/closet mortise locksets for 1-3/4 inch doors, the MRX-L-01 with a ligature resistant lever and the MRX-A-01 with arch trim in satin stainless steel. The Schlage PM026 is a Grade 1 passage mortise lock with a conventional Athens lever, so it is not a ligature resistant design.
9) If the door needs to stay locked from the outside, what should I order instead of the Schlage PM026?
The PM026 latchbolt is retracted by the lever from either side at all times, so it does not secure the opening. For a locked-outside condition, 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. For an office function, the Cal-Royal NM8050 is Grade 1 office/entrance with an auxiliary deadlatch.
10) Is the Schlage PM026 an electronic or access control lock?
No, the PM026 is a purely mechanical mortise lock with lever trim, no electronics and no reader. If you need credential control on a mortise prep, Schlage Electronics offers the CO-100 standalone keypad mortise lock and the ENGAGE LEMD wireless mortise lock, both Grade 1. The PM Series itself does include three electrified functions elsewhere in the family if you only need to switch the lock remotely.
11) What other Grade 1 mortise locks compare to the Schlage PM Series for a passage opening?
Falcon's MA101 is the closest cousin, a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise passage lock that is also field reversible and is listed with a fire rating. Hager's 3810S and 3810E are Grade 1 passage mortise locks on a 2-3/4 inch backset, the S for rose trim and the E for escutcheon, and both are listed for 1-3/4 to 2-1/2 inch doors, which gives you more thickness range without a special order. For behavioral health or detention-type openings, TownSteel's MRX-L-01 and MRX-A-01 are Grade 1 passage mortise locksets in anti-ligature lever and arch trim.
12) Can I standardize the Schlage PM Series across mortise and bored openings in the same building?
Yes. PM Series mortise locks are made to suite with other Allegion products, and they share lever and rose styles with the Schlage PT Series tubular locks. That lets you run mortise bodies on the heavier corridor and entry doors and tubular locks on interior doors while every lever in the building looks and feels the same. They also work with Schlage's full key system lineup, so one master key schedule covers both.
13) What is the difference between the Schlage PM026 and the Hager 3850E?
Both are mortise locks with a 2-3/4 inch backset and escutcheon trim available. The Hager 3850E is a Grade 1 office function lock, non-keyed, for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/2 inch doors. The Schlage PM026 is a Grade 1 passage/hall/closet function on 1-3/4 inch doors, carries an ANSI/BHMA F01 function designation, and is offered in six finishes from oil rubbed bronze to matte black with the Athens lever.
14) Can I use a Schlage CO-100 or LEMD electronic mortise lock in place of the PM026?
They solve a different problem. The Schlage CO-100 mortise is a Grade 1 standalone electronic lock with a keypad reader in privacy function for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the LEMD-GRW is a Grade 1 ENGAGE wireless mortise lock with a 125kHz proximity reader and a 3 hour fire rating. The PM026 is a non-electronic mechanical mortise lock in passage function with field reversible handing. Choose the electronic units when credentials or audit trail are required, the PM026 when the opening only needs free latch operation.
15) What mortise lockset looks similar to the Schlage PM026 but will not work as a substitute?
The Emtek dummy mortise entrance locksets - the 3019 Brisbane, 3102 Memphis, 3104 Hamilton and 3106 Manhattan - carry dummy function, meaning no working latch. The Falcon MESC600DT is also a dummy escutcheon lever trim, made for M9900 series exit devices rather than a mortise case. The Schlage PM026 is a Grade 1 mortise lock with a working latchbolt retracted by the lever from either side.
16) For a dormitory corridor door, should I use the Schlage PM026 or the Sargent 7925?
The Sargent 7925 is the corridor door choice: it is a Grade 1 heavy duty corridor/dormitory exit function mortise lock with rose trim and a single cylinder deadbolt from the 7900 Series. The Schlage PM026 is a Grade 1 passage function mortise lock whose latchbolt is retracted by the lever from either side at all times, which suits hall and closet openings rather than a secured dorm room.
17) What classroom-function mortise lock pairs with the Schlage PM026 for standardizing a school?
For the classroom openings, the Corbin Russwin ML2003 is a Grade 1 mortise classroom lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Cal-Royal NM8070 is a Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Marks USA LA318GJ is a Grade 1 classroom security indicator mortise lockset with an ANSI strike. The Schlage PM026 covers the passage openings on 1-3/4 inch doors and ships with a 10-072 1-1/4 inch by 4-7/8 inch strike and box.
18) Is the Baldwin 6301LS a substitute for the Schlage PM026 mortise lock?
No - the backset differs. The Baldwin 6301LS is a lever by lever entry/apartment mortise lock body with a 2-1/2 inch backset for doors 1-3/4 inch and over. The Schlage PM026 is a 2-3/4 inch backset only, so the mortise pocket and cross bore locations are not interchangeable between the two.
19) Is the thumbturn on the Schlage PM Series ADA compliant, and where does it sit on the door?
The thumbturn style used on PM Series mortise locks is ADA qualified. On the case, spacing runs 2-11/16 inches (68 mm) from lever to thumbturn hub and 3-7/8 inches (98 mm) from lever to cylinder, which is what you need when laying out the door prep or checking an existing mortise pocket.
20) Is a mortise lock body like the BEST 45H an alternative to the Schlage PM026?
The BEST 45H and 45HCA are heavy duty mortise lock bodies - the 45HCAC in public entrance function with field reversible operation, and the 45HCAINL in intruder function. They are sold as lock bodies, so trim is specified separately. The Schlage PM026 is supplied as a complete mortise lockset with the Athens lever and your choice of A, C, or D rose or N escutcheon, and is also field reversible.
21) What privacy-function mortise lock goes with the Schlage PM026 for restrooms?
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 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. The Schlage PM026 shares the 2-3/4 inch backset and is a passage function, so the two cover restroom and hall openings in the same door prep.
