Schlage PM056P PLAA 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How does the Schlage PM056 entrance/office lock actually operate on an office door?
The PM056 has a key cylinder outside and a thumbturn inside, with a latchbolt and deadlocking auxiliary latch. Turning the inside thumbturn makes the outside lever inoperative, so staff can secure the office from inside. Key from outside unlocks the outside lever and retracts the latchbolt. It also has automatic unlocking: turning the inside lever retracts the latch and unlocks the outside lever, and closing the door unlocks it as well, which prevents lock-outs. The inside lever is always free for immediate egress.
2) Will a Schlage PM056 mortise lock fit a 1-3/8 inch door, or a thick 2 inch door?
Standard door thickness for the PM Series mortise lock is 1-3/4 inches, with 1-3/8 inches as the minimum. It will go 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 the EE configuration only.
3) What cylinder do I have to specify with the Schlage PM056, and can I get it less cylinder for my own keyway?
Five cylinder choices: conventional 6-pin cylinder keyed 5, less conventional 6-pin cylinder, less small format interchangeable core, less full size interchangeable core, or FSIC with a construction core. If you key your own building, order one of the less-cylinder options and install your core. The construction core option lets the trades use a temporary key during the build and swap to permanent cores at turnover. Lever to cylinder spacing is 3-7/8 inches and lever to thumbturn hub is 2-11/16 inches.
4) What is the closest equivalent to the Schlage PM056 entrance/office mortise lock from another manufacturer?
The Cal-Royal NM8050 is the nearest cross-brand match. It is a heavy duty Grade 1 mortise lockset carrying the Entrance/Office function with an auxiliary deadlatch, and it is built for 1-3/4 inch doors, the same standard door thickness the Schlage PM056 uses. Both are Grade 1 mortise bodies, so the opening prep and the security class line up. Confirm lever style and finish separately, since trim families do not carry across brands.
5) I do not need a key on this door, just free passage both ways. Is there a simpler mortise lock than the PM056?
Yes. If the opening never needs to lock, a straight passage mortise body is the simpler buy. The Falcon MA101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise passage lock with the Passage/Hall/Closet function and field reversible operation, and it is fire rated. Hager also offers the 3810S 3800 Series Grade 1 passage mortise lock with rose trim on a 2-3/4 inch backset, which matches the PM056 backset, and the 3810E for escutcheon trim. Any of those drops the cylinder and thumbturn hardware the PM056 carries for its locking function.
6) The door needs to stay locked from outside at all times instead of being unlocked by a thumbturn. What mortise lock should I use instead of the PM056?
Use a storeroom function instead. The Accentra 8805FL is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock from the 8800 Series with an Arcadia lever, and the Cal-Royal NM8080 is a heavy duty Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset with an interchangeable core option. Storeroom keeps the outside lever permanently locked and requires the key each time, where the PM056 lets an inside thumbturn unlock the outside lever and re-locks by key.
7) For a classroom door, is the PM056 the right function or should I pick something else?
Pick a classroom function. The PM056 is an entrance/office lock with automatic unlocking, which is not the classroom lockdown behavior most schools spec. Comparable classroom mortise locks include the Cal-Royal NM8070, a heavy duty Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Corbin Russwin ML2003, a Grade 1 mortise classroom lockset in the ML2000 Series also for 1-3/4 inch doors. If the spec calls for classroom security indication, the Marks USA LA318GJ is a Grade 1 classroom security indicator mortise lockset with an ANSI strike and a steel escutcheon measuring 8-1/2 inches by 2-3/4 inches by 7/16 inch.
8) For a behavioral health or psychiatric unit, can I use the PM056 mortise lock?
Those openings normally call for anti-ligature trim, which the PM056 with its Playa lever does not provide. TownSteel offers the MRX-L-01, a Grade 1 heavy duty stainless steel anti-ligature lever mortise lockset in passage function for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the MRX-A-01 with satin stainless ligature resistant arch trim in the same passage function. Marks USA also lists the 5PDN, a Grade 1 hospital passage mortise push/pull paddleset that is ligature resistant and ADA compliant in satin stainless steel.
9) Do I have to order the Schlage PM056 handed?
No. Handing is field reversible on the PM Series, so one lock covers left and right hand openings and you can stock a single part number across a building.
10) Can I match the PM056 mortise lock to the tubular locks on my interior doors?
Yes. The Schlage PM Series mortise locks share lever and rose styles with the PT Series tubular locks, so a Playa lever on a corridor mortise opening matches the Playa on the lighter-duty interior doors. The PM Series is also made to suite with other Allegion products, which is how you keep one look and one key system across a whole building.
11) What is the difference between the Schlage PM056 and a storeroom mortise lock like the Accentra 8805FL?
The PM056 is an entrance/office function: the outside lever can be left unlocked for business hours and secured by key or the inside thumbturn, and it unlocks itself when the door closes so nobody gets locked out. A storeroom function, like the Accentra 8805FL in the 8800 Series, keeps the outside lever locked at all times and only a key retracts the latch, which is what you want on a mechanical room or supply closet, not a tenant office.
12) What are the alternatives to the Schlage PM056 if I need a different function on the same commercial mortise prep?
Stay in the PM Series if you want everything keyed and trimmed alike; it covers 26 functions plus four mortise deadbolt functions. Across other brands ZenSupply carries, the Cal-Royal NM8050 is a Grade 1 entrance/office mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Corbin Russwin ML2003 is a Grade 1 classroom function in the ML2000 Series, and the Hager 3850E is a Grade 1 non-keyed office mortise lock with lever and escutcheon on a 2-3/4 inch backset for doors 1-3/4 to 2-1/2 inches.
13) Is there a keypad or credential version of a Grade 1 mortise lock if I do not want to issue keys like the PM056 requires?
Yes, several electronic mortise locks cover that. The Schlage Electronics CO-100-MS standalone electronic mortise lock uses a keypad reader, is Grade 1 heavy duty and fits 1-3/4 inch doors. The Schlage Electronics LEMD-GRW is a Grade 1 ENGAGE Series wireless mortise lock with a 125kHz proximity reader and a 3 hour fire rating. The TownSteel FME-2000 is a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom mortise lockset with RFID for 1-3/4 inch doors. All of these need power and programming, where the PM056 is a fully mechanical, non-electronic lock.
14) The PM056 only takes a 2-3/4 inch backset. What mortise lock bodies work on a door prepped for a different backset?
The Schlage PM056 is 2-3/4 inch backset only. If the door is prepped deeper, Baldwin mortise bodies run a 2-1/2 inch backset: the 6301LS entry/apartment lever by lever body for doors 1-3/4 inch and over, and the 6310 entry/storeroom body for doors 1-3/8 inch and over in knob by knob, with the 6310190RRLS as a right hand reverse lever by lever version. Verify the case cutout against the existing mortise pocket before ordering.
15) Is a Sargent 130KB thumbturn a substitute for the thumbturn side of the PM056?
No. The Sargent 130KB is a standard mortise thumbturn for the 8200 Series, and the 130W is a mortise thumbturn with a round backplate for the 7800 Series. They are trim pieces sold for their own lock families, not complete locksets and not Schlage PM Series trim. The PM056 ships as a mortise lock with the key cylinder outside and thumbturn inside as part of the assembly, and its thumbturn style is ADA qualified.
16) I need privacy on a restroom or bedroom door, not the entrance/office function of the PM056. What mortise lock covers that?
For privacy, the Cal-Royal NM8440 is a heavy duty Grade 1 privacy mortise lockset with a 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 inches. Both give an inside locking function without an outside key cylinder, where the PM056 is keyed from the outside.
17) Are Emtek mortise entrance locksets an alternative to the Schlage PM056?
They are not a functional alternative. The Emtek 3019 Brisbane, 3102 Memphis, 3104 Hamilton and 3106 Manhattan mortise entrance locksets are all dummy function, meaning fixed trim with no latching or locking action. The PM056 is a Grade 1 commercial mortise lock with a latchbolt, deadlocking auxiliary latch, outside key cylinder and inside thumbturn. Use the Emtek units only on inactive or false leaves.
18) My spec calls for a dormitory or corridor function mortise lock. Does the PM056 meet that?
No, the PM056 is an entrance/office lock with automatic unlocking. For dormitory service, the Sargent 7925 is a Grade 1 heavy duty dormitory exit function mortise lock in the 7900 Series with rose trim and a single cylinder deadbolt. The BEST 45H Series heavy duty mortise lock body covers public entrance function with field reversible operation, which is the other common corridor choice.
19) Can the PM056 be used on an aluminum storefront door with a narrow stile?
The PM056 is built for doors 1-3/8 inch minimum and 1-3/4 inch standard, which is a hollow metal or wood door range rather than a narrow aluminum stile. For aluminum storefront work, the Alarm Lock DL1300NW Trilogy Networx wireless electronic mortise lock with keypad is made for Adams Rite deadlatches, and the Kaba Ilco BR Series is a glass door bottom rail lock. Those are prepped for the storefront rail, not for an ANSI mortise pocket.
20) I only need a deadbolt on this door, not a latch and lever. What replaces the PM056?
Go to a mortise deadbolt. The Sargent 4874 is a double cylinder mortise deadbolt on a 2-3/4 inch backset, which matches the PM056 backset, and the Kaba Ilco 185 Series mortise lock is a deadbolt function supplied with no handing in a single pack. Neither carries a latchbolt or lever trim, so the door will need a separate pull or push plate.
21) Does the PM056 need to be ordered handed the way some mortise locks do?
No. The Schlage PM056 is field reversible, so one unit covers either hand of the opening. Among comparable mortise bodies, the BEST 45H Series heavy duty public entrance lock body and the Falcon MA101 Grade 1 passage lock are also field reversible. By contrast the Baldwin 6310190RRLS is supplied as a right hand reverse lever by lever unit and the Schlage Electronics LEMD-GRW ENGAGE mortise lock is a right hand build, so handing has to be confirmed at order time on those.
22) How does the Hager 3850E office mortise lock differ from the Schlage PM056?
The Hager 3850E is a 3800 Series Grade 1 office mortise lock with lever and escutcheon trim on a 2-3/4 inch backset, and it is non-keyed, covering doors 1-3/4 to 2-1/2 inches. The Schlage PM056 runs the same 2-3/4 inch backset but is an entrance/office lock with a key cylinder outside and thumbturn inside, and it is offered with conventional 6-pin, SFIC and FSIC cylinder prep options. Choose the 3850E where no outside key is wanted, and the PM056 where the door has to be keyed into a master key system.
23) I need the mortise lock to release on a fire alarm or access control signal. Is the PM056 an option?
No, the PM056 is a mechanical lock with no electronic function. For electrified mortise bodies, the Command Access ML190 Series is a heavy duty motorized mortise lock with field selectable fail safe or fail secure operation on 24VDC in storeroom function, and the BEST 45HW Series is a heavy duty wired electromechanical mortise lock running 12V or 24V. Both need power transfer hinges or a similar path into the door.
