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 RHOA 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Schlage PM081 mortise lock fit a 1-3/4 inch commercial door?
Yes. The PM081 is built around a 1-3/4 inch (44 mm) door as standard, with 1-3/8 inch (35 mm) the minimum. It will go into doors up to 2-1/2 inches thick, but over 1-3/4 inches you have to call out the door thickness and the lock position in the door. Backset is 2-3/4 inches only, so the mortise pocket and cross-bore locations have to match that.
2) Do I need to order the Schlage PM081 handed, left or right?
No handing call-out is needed. The PM081 mortise lock is field reversible, so the same lock covers a left or right hand opening and a shop can flip it on site. That matters for property managers keeping a single part on the shelf for a whole building.
3) Does the Schlage PM081 mortise lock come with a cylinder, or do I have to buy the key core separately?
Both routes are offered. Order the P option and you get a conventional 6-pin cylinder keyed 5. Order B (less SFIC), J (less FSIC) or L (less conventional 6-pin) and the lock ships prepped but without the core, which is what you want when the building is on an existing master key system and your locksmith supplies the cores. T gives you an FSIC construction core for a jobsite that needs temporary keying before the permanent cores go in.
4) What does storeroom function mean on the Schlage PM081, and is it right for a mechanical or stock room door?
Storeroom is the standard function for a door that must stay locked from the outside at all times. The outside lever is fixed and the key retracts the latch; the inside lever always retracts the latch for free egress. That suits mechanical rooms, electrical closets, stock rooms and back-of-house doors where you never want the door left unlocked by accident. If you want the outside lever to be lockable and unlockable by key instead, a classroom or office function lock is the better pick.
5) Can I drop the Schlage PM081 into a pocket cut for a Schlage L Series mortise lock?
Not as a straight swap. The PM Series case measures 4-7/16 x 6-1/16 x 1 inch (113 x 154 x 25 mm), and Schlage notes that the PM and L Series case and cover holes differ, so the through-holes will not line up with an L Series prep. Treat it as a new template job and check the PM Series template before cutting.
6) What is a cross-brand equivalent to the Schlage PM081 storeroom mortise lock?
Two Grade 1 storeroom mortise locks cover the same opening. The Accentra 8805FL is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock with an Arcadia lever in the 8800 Series. The Cal-Royal NM8080 is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors with an interchangeable core option. The PM081 is itself Grade 1 storeroom, keyed, lever handle, mortise, with a 2-3/4 inch backset and field reversible handing, so all three suit a keyed-outside, always-free-inside storeroom door.
7) I need a classroom function instead of storeroom in a Grade 1 mortise lock - what should I order?
The PM081 is a storeroom function lock and cannot be set to classroom. For a Grade 1 mortise classroom lock, the Corbin Russwin ML2003 is a Grade 1 mortise classroom lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors in the ML2000 Series, and the Cal-Royal NM8070 is a Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch for 1-3/4 inch doors.
8) Can I use the Baldwin 6310 mortise lock in place of a Schlage PM081?
Not as a drop-in. The Baldwin 6310 entry/storeroom mortise lock body uses a 2-1/2 inch backset, while the PM081 is 2-3/4 inch backset only, so the mortise pocket and cylinder centerline differ. The lever-by-lever Baldwin 6310190RRLS is also supplied right hand reverse, where the PM081 is field reversible. Baldwin's 6310 bodies are listed for doors 1-3/8 inch and over.
9) What is a Grade 1 mortise storeroom alternative to the Schlage PM081 from another brand?
Two direct mechanical equivalents we carry: the Accentra 8805FL, a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock with the Arcadia lever, and the Cal-Royal NM8080, a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors with an interchangeable core option. Both cover the same always-locked-outside application. Stick with the PM081 if you are standardizing on Schlage keyways and want the Rhodes trim to suite with other Allegion hardware.
10) I need access control on this opening, not a key. What do I use instead of the PM081?
The PM081 is a purely mechanical mortise lock, no electronics. For credential or keypad access in a mortise prep, look at the Schlage CO-100 standalone electronic mortise lock with a keypad reader, or the Schlage Electronics LEMD-GRW, a Grade 1 ENGAGE wireless mortise lock with a 125 kHz proximity reader. For an electrified lock body driven from an access control panel, the BEST 45HW wired electromechanical mortise lock runs on 12V or 24V. The PM Series itself does include three electrified functions if you want to stay in that family.
11) The door does not need to be keyed - what mortise lock replaces the PM081 on a passage or privacy opening?
The PM081 is keyed. For an unkeyed opening, 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 with rose trim on a 2-3/4 inch backset, matching the PM081's backset. For a bed/bath privacy door, the Hager 3840S is a Grade 1 privacy mortise lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Cal-Royal NM8440 is a Grade 1 privacy mortise lockset with deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch doors.
12) What is the electronic alternative if I want keypad or credential access on a storeroom mortise door?
The PM081 is a mechanical, non-electronic lock. For credentialed access in a mortise prep, the Command Access ML190 is a heavy-duty motorized mortise lock with storeroom function, field selectable EL/EU operation and 24VDC power. Standalone keypad options include the BEST 45HZ EZ Series electronic keypad mortise lock with key override and the Alarm Lock DL3500CR Grade 1 electronic mortise lock with 300 user codes, though the DL3500CR is classroom function for 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors.
13) For a behavioral health or ligature-resistant opening, what mortise lockset should I use instead of the PM081?
The PM081 uses a standard Rhodes lever and is not a ligature-resistant design. TownSteel offers the MRX-A-01 with satin stainless anti-ligature arch trim and the MRX-L-01 with an anti-ligature lever, both Grade 1 heavy duty mortise locksets for 1-3/4 inch doors in passage function. For a push/pull hospital opening, the Marks USA 5PDN is a Grade 1 ligature-resistant, ADA-compliant hospital passage mortise paddleset in satin stainless steel.
14) Is the Sargent 4874 a substitute for the PM081 storeroom mortise lock?
No. The Sargent 4874 is a double cylinder mortise deadbolt on a 2-3/4 inch backset - deadbolt only, with no lever trim or latchbolt operation. The PM081 is a keyed storeroom mortise lock with levers and a latchbolt retracted by the lever. The Kaba Ilco 185 Series is likewise a deadbolt-function mortise lock, not a latching lockset. Use those alongside a lockset, not in place of one.
15) What should I order for a dormitory door with a deadbolt instead of a storeroom lock?
The Sargent 7925 is a Grade 1 heavy duty dormitory exit function mortise lock with rose trim and a single cylinder deadbolt, which gives the deadbolt the PM081 storeroom function does not provide. For a public entrance opening, the BEST 45H Series heavy duty mortise lock body is public entrance function with field reversible operation, matching the PM081's field reversible handing.
16) I need a classroom security indicator instead of a plain storeroom lock - what is available?
The Marks USA LA318GJ is a Grade 1 classroom security indicator mortise lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors, supplied with an ANSI strike and a steel escutcheon measuring 8-1/2 inch by 2-3/4 inch by 7/16 inch. The BEST 45HCA Series heavy duty mortise lockbody is offered in intruder function. The PM081 is storeroom function and ships with a 10-072 1-1/4 inch by 4-7/8 inch strike with box.
17) What is the difference between the PM081 and the Hager 3850E office mortise lock?
Function and keying. The Hager 3850E is a Grade 1 office mortise lock with lever and escutcheon, non-keyed, on a 2-3/4 inch backset for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/2 inch. The PM081 is keyed storeroom function on the same 2-3/4 inch backset, offered with A, C and D roses or an N escutcheon. If the room needs an office function that can be left unlocked, the 3850E fits; for a door that must stay locked outside, the PM081 does.
18) Are the Emtek mortise entrance locksets an alternative to the PM081?
They serve a different purpose. The Emtek 3019 Brisbane, 3102 Memphis, 3104 Hamilton and 3106 Manhattan mortise entrance locksets are all dummy function - decorative trim with no latching or keyed operation. The PM081 is a keyed Grade 1 storeroom lock for commercial use. Choose the Emtek dummy sets only for inactive leaves.
19) Is there a Schlage electronic mortise lock I can standardize with alongside PM081 mechanical locks?
Yes. The Schlage Electronics LEMD-GRW is a Grade 1 ENGAGE Series wireless mortise lock with a 125kHz proximity reader, mobile-enabled deadbolt with LED and Greenwich trim, carrying a 3 hour fire rating. The CO-100 is a Grade 1 heavy duty standalone electronic mortise lock with keypad reader in privacy function for 1-3/4 inch doors. The PM081 covers the mechanical storeroom openings alongside them.
