Schlage PM081 Grade 1 Accessible Storeroom with Cylinder Mortise Lock - Broadway 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 PM081P BRWA 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Schlage PM081 mortise lock fit a 1-3/4 inch door, and what about thicker doors?
1-3/4 inches (44 mm) is the standard door thickness for the PM Series mortise lock, with 1-3/8 inches (35 mm) as the minimum. The case will go into 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 position of the lock in the door. Backset is 2-3/4 inches only, so the mortise pocket and cross-bore centers have to match that.
2) Do I need to order the Schlage PM081 handed, or can I reverse it on site?
No handing to specify. The PM Series mortise case is field reversible, so one lock covers left and right hand openings and you can flip it during install rather than stocking both hands for a building.
3) How does the storeroom function on the PM081 actually work for a locked utility or stock room?
Storeroom function: the outside lever is always fixed and the door stays locked, so it latches secure every time it closes. A key in the outside cylinder retracts the latchbolt for entry. The inside lever is always free for egress. There is no way to leave the outside lever unlocked, which is why it suits storage, electrical and mechanical rooms rather than offices that need to be held open.
4) What cylinder options do I pick from on the Schlage PM081, and can I use my own cores?
Five cylinder choices: B less SFIC, J less FSIC, L less conventional 6-pin cylinder, P conventional 6-pin cylinder keyed 5, and T FSIC construction core. The three "less" options ship without a core so a locksmith can drop in the building's existing small format or full size interchangeable core. Pick P if you want it to arrive keyed, or T if you need a construction core during the build and will swap to permanent cores at turnover.
5) Can I swap a PM081 into a pocket cut for a Schlage L Series mortise lock?
Not a direct drop-in on the trim fixing. The PM and L Series case and cover holes differ, so the mounting holes will not line up even though both are mortise cases. Plan on the PM Series template. Case size is 4-7/16 x 6-1/16 x 1 inch and backset is 2-3/4 inches.
6) What is the closest equivalent to a Schlage PM081 storeroom mortise lock from another manufacturer?
The Schlage PM081 is a Grade 1 mortise lock in the storeroom function with a lever trim. The closest direct counterparts are the Accentra 8805FL Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock with Arcadia lever and the Cal-Royal NM8080 heavy duty Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset, which offers an interchangeable core option. The Cal-Royal NM8080 lists a 1-3/4 inch door thickness, matching the PM081's 1-3/4 inch door thickness. All three are Grade 1 storeroom function mortise locks, so the decision usually comes down to lever style and keying program rather than function.
7) Are Baldwin 6310 mortise locks interchangeable with the Schlage PM081?
No. The Baldwin 6310 entry/storeroom mortise lock bodies, in both the knob by knob and the 6310190RRLS right hand reverse lever version, use a 2-1/2 inch backset. The Schlage PM081 is 2-3/4 inch backset only, so the mortise pocket and cylinder spacing will not line up. The Baldwin 6310 is listed for doors 1-3/8 inch and over.
8) Is the Schlage PM081 Grade 1, and is it right for a commercial building?
Grade 1 and specified as commercial. The PM Series was built for commercial real estate, retail, multifamily and hospitality, with a cold rolled steel case carrying corrosion resistant zinc dichromate plating and a stainless steel latch.
9) What finishes does the Schlage PM081 Broadway lever come in, and can I match other doors in the building?
Six finishes: 613 Oil Rubbed Bronze, 619 Satin Nickel, 622 Matte Black, 625 Bright Chrome, 626 Satin Chrome and 643E Aged Bronze. The PM Series is made to suite with other Allegion hardware, and it shares lever and rose styles with the Schlage PT Series tubular locks, so you can run mortise locks on the corridor doors and tubular locks elsewhere and still have the levers match.
10) I need a mortise lock for a classroom, not a storeroom. What should I order instead?
Storeroom is the wrong function for a classroom that needs to be locked and unlocked from inside or by key without killing egress. The PM Series itself offers 26 functions, so a classroom function PM is available. Across other brands we carry, the Corbin Russwin ML2003 is a Grade 1 mortise classroom lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal NM8070 is a Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch, also 1-3/4 inch.
11) Does the Schlage PM081 have an electronic or keypad option, or is it mechanical only?
The PM081 is a mechanical, key-operated mortise lock, not electronic. If you need credential or code access on a mortise prep, look at the Schlage CO-100 standalone electronic mortise lock with keypad reader, or the Schlage Electronics LEMD Grade 1 ENGAGE wireless mortise lock with 125kHz proximity reader. The PM Series does include three electrified functions if you want a mechanical lock tied into access control rather than a standalone electronic lock.
12) The opening does not need to be keyed - what is the mortise equivalent without a cylinder?
The Schlage PM081 is a keyed storeroom lock supplied with cylinder options. Where the opening only needs free operation from both sides, the Falcon MA101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise passage lock with field reversible operation and a fire rating, and the Hager 3810S is a Grade 1 passage mortise lock on a 2-3/4 inch backset with rose trim, matching the PM081's 2-3/4 inch backset. The Hager 3810E is the same passage lock with escutcheon trim instead of a rose.
13) Can I use an electronic mortise lock in place of the Schlage PM081 for credential access?
The Schlage PM081 is a mechanical, non-electronic keyed mortise lock. If the opening needs credentials rather than keys, the Schlage Electronics LEMD-GRW is a Grade 1 ENGAGE Series wireless mortise lock with a 125 kHz proximity reader and a 3 hour fire rating, and the TownSteel FME-2000 is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise lockset with RFID technology for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Accentra NTM623-NR nexTouch Generation 3 mortise lock uses a capacitive touchscreen keypad with cylinder override. These change the credential method and the prep, so confirm the door prep before substituting.
14) Is a Sargent 130KB thumbturn or Sargent 4874 deadbolt a substitute for the Schlage PM081?
No. The Schlage PM081 is a complete Grade 1 keyed storeroom mortise lock with lever trim. The Sargent 130KB is a mortise thumbturn in the 8200 Series and the Sargent 130W is a mortise thumbturn with a round backplate - both are trim pieces, not locks. The Sargent 4874 is a double cylinder mortise deadbolt on a 2-3/4 inch backset with no latch or lever operation. None of the three will operate a latchbolt by lever the way the PM081 does.
15) My door is thicker than 1-3/4 inch - which mortise lock covers that range?
The Schlage PM081 is listed at 1-3/4 inch door thickness. For thicker doors, the Hager 3810S and 3810E passage mortise locks cover 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/2 inch, and the Hager 3850E office function mortise lock with lever and escutcheon covers the same 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/2 inch range on a 2-3/4 inch backset. Note those Hager models are passage and office functions rather than keyed storeroom.
16) What mortise lock should I use for a dormitory or corridor door instead of the PM081 storeroom?
For a dormitory or corridor opening, the Sargent 7925 is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise lock in the corridor/dormitory function with rose trim and a single cylinder deadbolt. The Schlage PM081 is a storeroom function with lever trim and no deadbolt in that function, so the 7925 adds the deadbolt and exit behavior a dorm room usually calls for.
17) I need a privacy mortise lock for a restroom - what replaces the PM081 there?
The Schlage PM081 is a keyed storeroom function, which is not appropriate for a restroom. For privacy, the Cal-Royal NM8440 is a heavy duty 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 inch to 2 inch. The 2-3/4 inch backset on the Hager matches the PM081's backset, so the door prep is consistent.
18) What is the difference between the Schlage PM081 and a Cal-Royal NM8050 office/entrance mortise lockset?
Both are Grade 1 mortise locksets for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Schlage PM081 is a storeroom function, where the outside lever stays locked and is released by key. The Cal-Royal NM8050 is an office/entrance function with an auxiliary deadlatch, which allows the outside lever to be left unlocked for business hours. Choose by whether the door should ever be left in a free-entry state.
19) For a behavioral health or ligature resistant opening, what mortise lock should I specify instead?
The Schlage PM081 uses a Broadway lever, which is a standard commercial lever. For ligature resistant openings, 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, and the MRX-A-01 is the same passage function with satin stainless ligature resistant arch trim. 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.
20) Can I get the PM081 opening to run on access control power instead of keys?
The Schlage PM081 is a mechanical keyed storeroom lock. For an electrified mortise body in the same storeroom function, the Command Access ML190 is a heavy-duty motorized mortise lock in the storeroom function with field selectable electrically locked or electrically unlocked operation on 24VDC. The BEST 45HW is a heavy duty wired electromechanical mortise lock with 12V and 24V operation. Both require power to the door, which the PM081 does not.
21) What keypad mortise lock could replace the PM081 on an exterior storage door?
The Schlage PM081 is key operated with conventional 6-pin, SFIC or FSIC cylinder options. For pushbutton access instead, the Alarm Lock DL2700CR is a Grade 1 electronic mortise lock with classroom function and weatherproof design for 1-5/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch doors, and the DL3500CR is a Grade 1 electronic mortise lock with 300 user codes in classroom function over the same door thickness range. Confirm your door falls in that 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch band, since the PM081 is specified at 1-3/4 inch.
22) Is a BEST 45H mortise lock body the same thing as a Schlage PM081?
Not the same. The BEST 45H is a heavy duty mortise lock body in the public entrance function with field reversible operation, and the 45HCA with intruder function is another body in that family. Those are lock bodies rather than a complete lever lockset, and the public entrance and intruder functions behave differently from the PM081's storeroom function. The PM081 does share field reversible handing with the 45H.
23) Will a Marks USA 21AC or 22AC ornamental iron mortise lock work where the PM081 goes?
They are built for a different door entirely. The Marks USA 21AC and 22AC entrance double cylinder ornamental iron mortise locks with round knob are both listed for 1 inch door thickness, made for narrow ornamental iron stiles. The Schlage PM081 is a 1-3/4 inch door lock with lever trim, so the two are not interchangeable.
24) Is an Emtek 3104 Hamilton mortise entrance lockset a substitute for the PM081?
No. The Emtek 3104 Hamilton, 3102 Memphis, 3106 Manhattan and 3019 Brisbane mortise entrance locksets are all dummy function, meaning they do not latch or lock at all. The Schlage PM081 is a keyed Grade 1 storeroom lock with a working latchbolt. Use the Emtek dummy sets only on inactive leaves.
