TownSteel MRX-S-L-22-630 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the TownSteel MRX-L-22 mortise lock fit a 1-3/4 inch door?
Yes, and 1-3/4 inches is the thickness it is built for. The MRX-L-22 is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors, which is the standard commercial door thickness, and it mounts on either wood or metal doors.
2) What does the 22 function do on this TownSteel anti-ligature mortise lock?
It is a privacy/bed/bath function with a deadbolt, levers both sides. You throw the deadbolt from inside the room for privacy, which is the standard arrangement for patient bedrooms and bathrooms. There is no key cylinder function on it, the lock is non-keyed.
3) Is the MRX-L-22 suitable for a behavioral health or psychiatric patient room?
That is what it is made for. The MRX-L lockset uses a ligature-resistant stainless steel lever and tamper-resistant mounting screws, and TownSteel lists it for behavioral, mental and psychiatric healthcare facilities housing at-risk patients. It is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise lock, so it also holds up to institutional traffic.
4) Will this TownSteel mortise lock drop into my existing ASA strike prep?
It ships with a 1-1/4 by 4-7/8 inch ASA strike and a 1-1/4 by 8 inch stainless face plate, which is the standard ANSI mortise prep. If your frame is already cut for an ASA strike and the door has a standard mortise pocket with the 8 inch faceplate cutout, it goes back in without new prep. Verify the existing faceplate is 8 inches, not a short 7-7/8 or radius-corner variant, before you pull the old lock.
5) What other ligature-resistant hardware works on behavioral health openings where a lockset is not wanted?
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. It is a passage device, so it neither locks nor carries a deadbolt, which suits corridor and dayroom doors. The TownSteel MRX-L-22 is the privacy/bed/bath choice for the same environment, with a ligature-resistant stainless lever and a deadbolt for patient bathrooms.
6) What is the closest standard privacy mortise lockset to the TownSteel MRX-L-22 if anti-ligature trim is not required?
The Cal-Royal NM8440 is a heavy duty Grade 1 privacy mortise lockset with deadbolt, listed for 1-3/4 inch doors, the same door thickness the MRX-L-22 is built for. Both are Grade 1 privacy/bed/bath mortise locks with a deadbolt. The difference is the trim: the MRX-L-22 carries a ligature-resistant stainless steel lever with tamper-resistant mounting screws for behavioral and psychiatric patient areas, while the NM8440 uses conventional lever trim. For a staff restroom or an office suite bathroom where ligature resistance is not part of the spec, the NM8440 covers the same function.
7) Is there another privacy mortise lock for doors thicker than 1-3/4 inches, since the MRX-L-22 is sized for 1-3/4?
The MRX-L-22 is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Hager 3840S, a Grade 1 privacy mortise lock, covers a 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch door thickness range with a 2-3/4 inch backset, so it reaches doors up to 2 inches. Note the Hager is standard privacy trim, not ligature-resistant, so it is a thickness solution rather than a behavioral health substitute.
8) Should I order the escutcheon or the sectional trim on the MRX-L?
Both are offered, in 630 satin stainless. Escutcheon (E) gives you one continuous plate covering the lever and thumbturn area, which hides old prep and gives less exposed edge, and it is the usual pick for patient rooms. Sectional (S) uses separate roses and is the leaner look. Function and lock body are the same either way, so pick on the appearance and on what the existing door face looks like.
9) Does the MRX-L-22 come with a cylinder, or do I need to order one?
A cylinder is included with the MRX-L lockset, so there is nothing extra to source on that side. Note the 22 is a non-keyed privacy function, so it is not keyed into a master system.
10) What else could I use for a Grade 1 privacy mortise lock with a deadbolt if I do not need anti-ligature?
On a standard 1-3/4 inch door, the Cal-Royal NM8440 is a Grade 1 heavy duty privacy mortise lockset with deadbolt, and the Hager 3840S is a Grade 1 privacy mortise lock on a 2-3/4 inch backset for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors. Neither is ligature resistant. If the opening is a patient room where ligature risk is the reason for the spec, stay with the MRX-L.
11) Can I standardize a whole behavioral unit on the MRX-L series across different door functions?
Yes. The MRX-L is a series, and the 22 privacy/deadbolt version shares the same ligature-resistant stainless lever, tamper-resistant screws and Grade 1 mortise body used across it, with the same 1-1/4 by 8 inch faceplate and 1-1/4 by 4-7/8 ASA strike. Choose one trim style, escutcheon or sectional, and one finish (630 satin stainless) across the unit so every opening looks and preps the same.
12) We need the same anti-ligature look on a classroom or storeroom door, not a bathroom. What takes that function?
The MRX-L-22 is non-keyed privacy/bed/bath, so it will not secure a classroom or storeroom. For keyed functions on 1-3/4 inch doors, the Cal-Royal NM8070 is a Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch and the NM8080 is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset with an interchangeable core option; the Corbin Russwin ML2003 is a Grade 1 mortise classroom lockset for the same door thickness. These carry conventional lever trim rather than the ligature-resistant stainless lever on the MRX-L-22.
13) Can I use a Schlage CO-100 privacy mortise lock in place of the TownSteel MRX-L-22?
Both are Grade 1 heavy duty privacy-function mortise locks for 1-3/4 inch doors, but they are different classes of product. The Schlage CO-100 is a standalone electronic mortise lock with a keypad reader; the MRX-L-22 is a mechanical, non-electronic lockset with a ligature-resistant stainless lever and deadbolt. On a patient room or behavioral health bathroom, the keypad and its housing are not a ligature-resistant trim, so the two are not interchangeable on that type of opening.
14) What looks like a substitute for the MRX-L-22 but is not a complete lockset?
Several mortise items in the same family are components rather than full locksets. The BEST 45HCA heavy duty mortise lock bodies, such as the public entrance and intruder function versions, ship as lock bodies without trim. Sargent 130KB and 130W are mortise thumbturns only. The Schlage L0170 is half dummy trim with no latching function. The TownSteel MRX-L-22 is a complete privacy lockset with lever trim in escutcheon or sectional form, a cylinder, a 1-1/4 inch by 8 inch stainless face plate and a 1-1/4 inch by 4-7/8 inch ASA strike.
15) Is this an electronic or access-control lock?
No. The MRX-L-22 is a purely mechanical mortise lockset with lever trim, no wiring, no power, no credential reader. If you need electronic privacy control on a mortise prep, the Schlage CO-100 standalone mortise lock is offered in a privacy function with a keypad reader.
16) If the opening only needs a deadbolt and no lever, what replaces the MRX-L-22?
The MRX-L-22 pairs a ligature-resistant lever with a deadbolt for privacy service. If the door needs deadbolt-only hardware, the Sargent 4874 is a double cylinder mortise deadbolt with a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Kaba Ilco 185 Series is a no-handing mortise deadbolt lock. Neither provides lever operation or the ligature-resistant trim on the TownSteel.
17) For a passage opening next to a patient bathroom, what is the simpler mortise option?
Passage openings do not need the deadbolt on the MRX-L-22. The Falcon MA101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise passage lock with field reversible operation and a fire rating, and the Schlage PM010 is a Grade 1 non-keyed passage latch mortise lock for 1-3/4 inch doors, the same thickness the MRX-L-22 fits. Both use standard lever or trim rather than a ligature-resistant stainless lever.
