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.

Schlage PM026P PLAA 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How does the Schlage PM026 exit lock actually work on the door, and is there an outside lever?
There is no outside lever on the PM026. The outside has a key cylinder only; the lever is on the inside face, and the inside lever always retracts the latchbolt for immediate egress. The lockbody carries a latchbolt with a deadlocking auxiliary latch. It's the right choice for a stair or service door where you want free exit but no handle for anyone to grab from the corridor side.
2) Will the Schlage PM026 mortise lock fit a 1-3/8 inch door or something thicker than 1-3/4?
Standard is 1-3/4 inch (44 mm), with 1-3/8 inch (35 mm) as the minimum. It will go into doors up to 2-1/2 inches thick, but over 1-3/4 inches you have to specify the door thickness and the lock's position in the door, and that is available in EE only.
3) Do I have to order the Schlage PM026 handed?
No. Handing is field reversible on the PM Series lockbody, so one part covers left and right hand openings and you can set it on site.
4) Does the PM026 come with a cylinder, or do I have to buy one separately?
That depends on the cylinder option you pick. B is less SFIC, J is less FSIC and L is less a conventional 6-pin cylinder, all of which ship without the cylinder so you supply it from your own key system. P includes a conventional 6-pin cylinder keyed 5, and T ships with an FSIC construction core for use during construction before permanent cores go in.
5) Will the PM026 mortise case drop into a pocket cut for a Schlage L Series lock?
Not without checking the prep. The PM case measures 4-7/16 x 6-1/16 x 1 inch (113 x 154 x 25 mm), and Schlage notes that PM and L Series case and cover holes differ. Plan on the PM Series template rather than assuming the L Series prep carries over.
6) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to the Schlage PM026 mortise lock for a passage opening?
The Falcon MA101 is the nearest peer: it is a Grade 1 heavy-duty mortise lock with a Passage/Hall/Closet function and field reversible operation, matching the Schlage PM026's Grade 1 rating, Passage lock function, and field reversible handing. The Falcon MA101 is also listed as fire rated. The Schlage PM026 differs in that it takes a key cylinder on the outside with a lever inside only, and it is offered with Playa levers on A, C, D roses or the N escutcheon in finishes including 613 Oil Rubbed Bronze, 619 Satin Nickel, 622 Matte Black, 625 Bright Chrome, 626 Satin Chrome and 643E Aged Bronze.
7) If the opening needs a keyed storeroom mortise lock instead of an exit lock, what should be used in place of the Schlage PM026?
Two Grade 1 storeroom mortise locks cover that: the Accentra 8805FL Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock with Arcadia lever, and the Cal-Royal NM8080 heavy-duty Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset with an interchangeable core option for doors 1-3/4 inch thick. The Schlage PM026 is an exit lock function - key cylinder outside with no lever, and an inside lever always free for immediate egress - so it does not provide keyed outside lever entry.
8) For a behavioral health or ligature-resistant opening, what mortise passage lock is used instead of the Schlage PM026?
TownSteel's MRX series is built for that: the MRX-L-01 is a Grade 1 heavy-duty anti-ligature lever mortise lockset with passage function in stainless steel, and the MRX-A-01 is the same passage function with ligature-resistant arch trim in satin stainless steel, both for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Schlage PM026 is a Grade 1 mortise lock with standard Playa lever trim and is not described as ligature resistant.
9) For a residential-style mortise entrance door, is the Baldwin 6301 an alternative to the Schlage PM026?
The Baldwin 6301 is a mortise lock body in entrance/apartment function with a 2-1/2 inch backset, offered knob by knob or lever by lever, for doors 1-3/4 inch and over. The Schlage PM026 is a commercial Grade 1 mortise lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset only, so the two are not interchangeable in an existing mortise pocket - the backset differs.
10) What trim do I need to specify with a Schlage PM026 exit lock?
Lever style on this one is Playa (PLA), and you choose the rose or escutcheon: A rose, C rose, D rose, or the N escutcheon. Rose diameters run A at 2-1/8 inches (54 mm), B at 2-9/16 inches (65 mm) and C at 2-5/8 inches (67 mm); the N escutcheon measures 7-7/8 x 2-1/2 x 7/16 inches (200 x 64 x 11 mm) in wrought brass. Roses are brass, levers are zinc. If you are covering an old escutcheon footprint, the N plate hides more of the door face than a rose will.
11) What finishes does the Schlage PM026 Playa lever come in for matching other hardware in the building?
Six: 613 Oil Rubbed Bronze, 619 Satin Nickel, 622 Matte Black, 625 Bright Chrome, 626 Satin Chrome and 643E Aged Bronze. Because the PM Series shares lever and rose styles with the PT Series tubular locks, you can run the same Playa lever look across mortise and tubular openings in the same building.
12) Is the Schlage PM026 mortise lock Grade 1, and what ANSI function is it?
Grade 1, and it is built for commercial use. The function is catalogued as ANSI/BHMA F01.
13) I need a plain passage mortise lock with levers on both sides, not a cylinder exit function. What should I look at instead?
The PM026 is an exit function, cylinder outside and no outside lever, so it is the wrong part if you want levers both sides. For straight passage in a mortise case, the Falcon MA101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise passage lock with field reversible operation, and Hager's 3800 Series passage locks come as the 3810S with rose trim or the 3810E with escutcheon, both on a 2-3/4 inch backset. For anti-ligature behavioral health openings, TownSteel's MRX-L-01 lever and MRX-A-01 arch trim are Grade 1 passage mortise locksets.
14) What is an alternative to the Schlage PM026 for a Hager-standardized building that needs a passage mortise lock?
Hager's 3800 Series offers passage mortise locks in both trim styles: the 3810S with rose trim and the 3810E with escutcheon, both Grade 1 passage function with a 2-3/4 inch backset and a 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/2 inch door thickness range. The Schlage PM026 also uses a 2-3/4 inch backset only, and is offered with either A, C, D roses or the N escutcheon, so the trim decision maps across directly.
15) Is a Sargent 7925 dormitory exit mortise lock the same thing as the Schlage PM026 exit lock?
No. The Sargent 7925 is a Grade 1 heavy-duty corridor/dormitory exit function mortise lock with rose trim and a single cylinder deadbolt, so it adds a deadbolt to the case. The Schlage PM026 is an exit lock with cylinder using a latchbolt and deadlocking auxiliary latch, with the latchbolt retracted by the inside lever at all times - no deadbolt is thrown by the user.
16) Does a Schlage CO-100 mortise lock substitute for the Schlage PM026?
Not for the same purpose. The CO-100 is a standalone electronic mortise lock with a keypad reader in privacy function, Grade 1 heavy duty for 1-3/4 inch doors. The PM026 is a mechanical lock with no electronics, using a key cylinder outside and a free inside lever. If the opening needs credential-based access rather than a key, the CO-100 is the electronic route; if it needs mechanical exit control, the PM026 is.
17) What mortise lock should be specified instead of the Schlage PM026 for a classroom door?
Classroom-function mortise locks in the same Grade 1 class include the Corbin Russwin ML2003 for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Cal-Royal NM8070 heavy-duty classroom lockset with auxiliary deadlatch for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Marks USA LA318GJ classroom security indicator mortise lockset with ANSI strike and a steel escutcheon measuring 8-1/2 inches by 2-3/4 inches by 7/16 inch. The Schlage PM026 is an exit lock function with a passage-style free inside lever and is not a classroom lock.
18) What is the alternative to the Schlage PM026 if the door needs privacy locking for a restroom?
Privacy mortise locks in the same Grade 1 class include the Cal-Royal NM8440 heavy-duty privacy lockset with deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch doors and the Hager 3840S 3800 Series Grade 1 privacy mortise lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. The Schlage PM026 is non-keyed passage on the inside with an outside cylinder and provides no privacy locking.
19) For a door that only needs a keyed deadbolt and no lever, what is used instead of the Schlage PM026?
The Sargent 4874 is a double cylinder mortise deadbolt with a 2-3/4 inch backset, matching the Schlage PM026's 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Kaba Ilco 185 Series mortise lock is a deadbolt function with no handing. The Schlage PM026 is a latchbolt exit lock with a lever inside, so it is the choice when the opening must still latch and allow free egress.
20) What mortise lock takes the place of the Schlage PM026 when the outside side must be controlled by a card or keypad?
Several electrified and credential-based mortise locks cover that opening: the Dormakaba E-Plex E5086 is a Grade 1 entry/egress electronic pushbutton and card lock in a back-to-back mortise configuration, the TownSteel FME-2000 is a Grade 1 heavy-duty classroom mortise lockset with RFID for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Accentra NTM623-NR nexTouch Generation 3 mortise lock uses a capacitive touchscreen keypad with cylinder override and no deadbolt. The Schlage PM026 is mechanical only, with a key cylinder outside.
21) Is there an electronic or credential-based version if I want to control access on this opening rather than use a key?
The PM026 is mechanical, not electronic. If the door needs credentials, Schlage Electronics offers the CO-100 standalone keypad mortise lock and the ENGAGE LEMD wireless mortise lock with a 125kHz proximity reader. From other brands in the same mortise footprint, TownSteel's FME-2000 is a Grade 1 RFID mortise lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors, and Alarm Lock's Trilogy DL3500CR is a Grade 1 electronic mortise lock with 300 user codes.
22) Does the PM026 have a deadbolt, and can I get a keyed lockset from the same series?
The PM026 itself is the exit function with latchbolt and deadlocking auxiliary latch, catalogued non-keyed in terms of lever operation, with the outside cylinder for control. The wider PM Series runs 26 functions including three electrified and four mortise deadbolt functions, and where a PM deadbolt function is used the deadbolt is a 1 inch (25 mm) throw stainless steel bolt.
23) Can a Sargent 130KB thumbturn or a BEST 45H lock body replace the Schlage PM026?
No - those are different scopes of supply. The Sargent 130KB is a standard-duty mortise thumbturn in the 8200 Series, a trim piece only, and the BEST 45H is a heavy-duty mortise lock body in public entrance function without complete trim. The Schlage PM026 is supplied as a complete mortise lock with Playa lever trim, rose or escutcheon, and a 10-072 1-1/4 inch by 4-7/8 inch square corner strike with box.
24) Is an Emtek 3102 Memphis mortise entrance lockset a substitute for the Schlage PM026?
No. The Emtek 3102 Memphis and the related 3104 Hamilton and 3106 Manhattan mortise entrance locksets are dummy function, meaning they are non-operating trim with no working latch. The Schlage PM026 is a functioning Grade 1 commercial mortise lock whose latchbolt is retracted by the lever, with a deadlocking auxiliary latch.
