Schlage Residential JD81 619 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is a one-sided deadbolt like the Schlage JD81 actually for?
The JD81 is a deadbolt you throw and retract from the inside only. The outside face is a blank plate, so there is no keyhole and no way to operate it from the corridor or the street side. That is what you want on a back-of-house door, a stock room, or a unit door where you want the occupant to secure themselves in but nobody working the lock from outside. If somebody on the outside needs to get in with a key, this is the wrong function and you want a cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt instead, like the Hager 3215 or the Cal-Royal ED500.
2) Do I need to know the backset before I order the JD81 deadbolt?
No. The JD81 latch is field adjustable for either a 2-3/8 or a 2-3/4 inch backset, which are the two backsets you find in standard door prep, so one part covers both without modifying the bore. Measure from the door edge to the center of the cross bore on site and set it during install.
3) Will the JD81 deadbolt latch into the strike that is already in my frame?
Usually, and the numbers to check are these: the bolt throws 1 inch, the latch case is 1 x 2-1/4 inches with a 1/4 inch round faceplate and a 1 inch housing diameter, and the strike is 1 x 2-1/4 inch. Two strikes ship in the box, a radius corner full lip strike and a plain radius corner strike, so you can match either a wood jamb that needs the lip or a hollow metal frame that does not. If your existing strike box is a square corner cutout, you will need to file the mortise or reuse the existing plate.
4) Is the Schlage JD81 rated for commercial use, and what grade is it?
The JD81 carries ANSI/BHMA A156.36-2010 Commercial Grade 3. That is fine for apartment unit doors, back-of-house, and light commercial. If your spec calls for Grade 1 on a high-traffic entrance, this will not meet it, and you would step up to something like the Delaney LM Series Grade 1 or the Design Hardware D1 Series, both keyed functions rather than one-sided.
5) Can I use the JD81 deadbolt on a 3-hour rated fire door?
A UL Listed configuration for 3-hour fire doors is offered on the JD60, JD80 and JD81 functions, so it has to be specified as that option rather than assumed on a standard unit. If you are buying off the shelf for a rated opening, the Hager 3115 and 3215 are deadbolts we carry with a fire rating on record.
6) What is the closest equivalent to the Schlage JD81 one-sided deadbolt from another brand?
The Arrow E60 is the closest match in function. Like the JD81, it is a blank plate by thumbturn deadlock, meaning the bolt is thrown and retracted only from the interior side with no keyway or cylinder on the exterior face, and it covers the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range. The Arrow E60 is a Grade 2 exit deadlock and is non-keyed throughout; the Schlage JD81 is ANSI/BHMA A156.36-2010 Commercial Grade 3 and ships with a 5-pin C keyway cylinder in keyed alike KA4 configuration with two brass cut keys. If the opening needs a blind exterior plate and interior-only operation, the E60 is the direct functional substitute.
7) What one-sided deadbolt works when the door is only bored on one face?
The Callan Model 205S is a Grade 3 one-sided half-bore deadbolt, prepped for a single-face bore rather than a through-bore. The Schlage JD81 is also a one-sided lock function with blank plate outside and thumbturn inside, and it is a full B Series bored lockset with roses, latch, strike and mounting hardware included, adjustable for 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset. Where the door has no exterior bore at all, the 205S half-bore prep is the one to check against the door; where a standard two-face deadbolt prep already exists, the JD81 drops into it.
8) If the opening needs a key on the outside instead of a blank plate, what replaces the Schlage JD81?
Step up to a single cylinder deadbolt in a comparable duty class. The Hager 3215 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with a 1 inch throw, fits 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and is fire rated; the Hager 3115 is a Grade 2 cylinder by thumbturn deadbolt cut to the Schlage C keyway, which keeps the same key section the JD81 ships with in its 5-pin C keyway cylinder. The JD81 itself is blank plate by thumbturn, so the bolt cannot be operated from outside at all. For a keyed exterior on the same door prep and the same key system, the Hager 3115 is the substitution to price.
9) Is a double cylinder deadbolt a substitute for the Schlage JD81?
No. A double cylinder deadbolt such as the Dexter DB2000 double cylinder, Grade 2 and rated for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, or the Hager 3214 Grade 2 double cylinder on the Schlage C keyway, takes a key on both faces and has no thumbturn at all. The JD81 is the opposite arrangement: a blank plate outside and a thumbturn inside, so anyone on the interior side can retract the bolt without a key. If the requirement is egress by hand from inside, the double cylinder units do not meet it, even though the door prep and thickness range line up.
10) What is the difference between a cylinder by blank deadlock like the Corbin Russwin DL3011 and the Schlage JD81?
The two are mirror images. The Corbin Russwin DL3011 is a Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock in cylinder by blank configuration, keyed on one face with a blind plate on the other, and it is built for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. The Schlage JD81 puts the blank plate on the exterior and a thumbturn on the interior, and covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. Ordering the DL3011 expecting interior thumbturn operation gets a blind interior face instead, and on a 1-3/8 inch door it falls outside its thickness range.
11) What comes in the box with the Schlage JD81, and what else do I have to order?
You get the deadbolt with its roses, the latch, the strike, and the mounting hardware. The latch is a triple option unit, model 16-068, so it works as a round faceplate latch or drives in without a faceplate, and the strike pack 10-267 carries both a full lip and a plain radius strike. Nothing else is required to hang it on a properly bored door. Since the outside is a blank plate with no cylinder, there is no keying to specify.
12) Does handing matter when ordering a JD81 one-sided deadbolt?
No. The JD81 is non-handed, so the same part goes on a left or right hand door and you do not have to survey the openings before you order. On a fleet of unit doors that means one part number covers the whole building.
13) What is the difference between the Schlage JD81 and the Arrow E60 deadlock?
Both are blank plate outside with a thumbturn inside, and both take 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, so they solve the same problem on the same openings. The Arrow E60 is Grade 2 and non-keyed; the JD81 is Grade 3. If your spec sheet calls for Grade 2 minimum on the opening, the E60 is the one that clears it.
14) I need a one-sided deadbolt but the door only has a half bore. What are my options?
The JD81 is a bored lockset and expects a full cross bore and edge bore for the 1 inch diameter latch housing. If your door has a half bore, the Callan Model 205S is a Grade 3 one-sided half-bore deadbolt and is the part that suits that prep.
15) Which deadbolt should be used on a 2 inch or thicker door instead of the Schlage JD81?
The Schlage JD81 is built for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. For thicker stock, the Corbin Russwin DL3011 Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Deltana 7312KA2 Grade 3 double cylinder deadbolt covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The DL3011 is cylinder by blank and the 7312KA2 is keyed on both faces, so neither gives the interior thumbturn with blind exterior that the JD81 provides.
16) Which deadbolts carry a higher ANSI grade than the Schlage JD81 for a heavy traffic opening?
The JD81 is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.36-2010 Commercial Grade 3. Grade 1 options in the same deadbolt family include the Accentra D111 single cylinder deadbolt with 2-3/8 inch backset, which covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Falcon D111 heavy duty Grade 1 classroom deadbolt with adjustable backset. Both are cylinder by thumbturn, so the exterior gets a keyway rather than the blank plate the JD81 carries. For an interior-only opening in a high cycle corridor there is no blank plate Grade 1 in the set, so the trade is between the higher grade and the blind exterior.
17) What Grade 3 deadbolt alternatives fit the same door thickness range as the Schlage JD81?
The Cal-Royal ED500 Chelsie ED Series is a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with adjustable backset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal LSD Chelsie LSD Series is a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with an ADA ergonomic thumbturn on the same thickness range. Both are cylinder by thumbturn. The Schlage JD81 sits at the same Commercial Grade 3 certification and the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch range with field adjustment for 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset, but with a blank exterior plate. Where an accessible thumbturn is called out in the spec, the Cal-Royal LSD is the one to look at.
18) For a small format interchangeable core keying system, what takes the place of the Schlage JD81?
The Arrow E61 in 26D is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadlock prepped for SFIC and supplied less core, for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, so the core is set by whoever owns the facility keying. The Deltana CL200LAIC is a Grade 2 single deadbolt with interchangeable core prep, non-cylinder, on a 2-3/4 inch backset. The Schlage JD81 comes with a fixed 5-pin C keyway cylinder keyed alike KA4 and two brass cut keys, which suits a small set of matched doors rather than a core-based masterkey system.
19) What finishes does the Schlage JD81 deadbolt come in?
Four: 605 bright brass, 609 antique brass, 619 satin nickel, and 630 satin stainless steel. If you are matching existing hardware across a building, 630 satin stainless is the usual commercial match and 619 satin nickel the usual residential one. All four are the same lock underneath, so the finish choice does not change the fit.
20) Is the Schlage JD81 electronic or does it need power?
Purely mechanical. No wiring, no batteries, no credential. If you are after a keypad or RFID deadbolt for the same kind of opening, the Delaney KP400 is a Grade 2 electronic deadbolt and the Dormakaba Saffire LX-D is an RFID electronic deadbolt.
21) Is the BEST 8T tubular deadbolt tube an alternative to the Schlage JD81?
No, it is a component rather than a complete lock. The BEST 8T is the T Series tubular deadbolt tube component. The Schlage JD81 is a complete assembly supplied with the deadbolt, roses, latch, strike and mounting hardware, including the 16-068 triple option round drive-in latch and the 10-267 strike pack. Ordering the 8T against a JD81 requirement leaves the trim, strike and hardware still to source.
