TownSteel TRX-L-109 Ligature-Resistant Entrance/Office Cylindrical Lockset

The TownSteel TRX-L-109 is an ANSI Grade 1 sectional cylindrical lockset built for entrance/office function applications where patient and occupant safety is critical. Equipped with a ligature-resistant stainless steel lever and tamper-resistant mounting screws, this heavy-duty single-cylinder lockset is purpose-built for behavioral, mental, and psychiatric healthcare facilities housing at-risk patients. It accommodates a 1-3/4" door thickness range with a 1-1/8" face plate and mounts onto both wood and metal doors, making it a versatile solution for demanding commercial and institutional door openings.

TownSteel TRX-L-109-630 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the TownSteel TRX-L-109 fit a 1-3/4 inch door, and can it go on a hollow metal door?
The TRX-L-109 is built for 1-3/4 inch doors, and it mounts on either a wood or a hollow metal door. If your openings are 1-3/8 inch older interior doors or thicker than 1-3/4, this is not the lock for them.
2) What backsets does the TRX-L-109 ligature resistant lever lock come in?
Two: the standard 2-3/4 inch commercial backset and a 5 inch backset for doors with wide stiles or glass lites where the cross bore sits further off the edge. Measure from the door edge to the center of the existing bore before you order, since the two are not interchangeable in the same prep.
3) Can I key the TownSteel TRX-L into my existing Schlage or Corbin interchangeable core system?
Yes. The TRX-L-109 is offered in Schlage FSIC prep, Corbin 6-pin LFIC prep, and SFIC prep, as well as a standard cylinder. Pick the prep that matches the cores your facility already carries and you can pull your own core into it. It is a single cylinder keyed function, so the key works the outside lever only.
4) Is this lock suitable for a behavioral health or psychiatric patient room?
That is what it was made for. The TRX-L carries a ligature-resistant stainless steel lever with no gap for a cord to catch, plus tamper-resistant mounting screws, and TownSteel states it is suitable for behavioral, mental, and psychiatric healthcare facilities housing at-risk patients. A conventional lever in those rooms is a ligature point.
5) What should I use on a patient-area door that needs an asylum function instead of the TownSteel TRX-L-109 entry/office function?
The TRX-L-109 is keyed entrance/office function with a single cylinder, so the outside lever is locked and unlocked at the lock itself. If the opening calls for asylum/institution function instead, the Dexter C1000 Series asylum (F87) is a Grade 1 cylindrical lock in that function for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick, and the Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a Grade 2 asylum function cylindrical lock with a ball knob and conventional Schlage C keyway. The TRX-L-109 fits 1-3/4 inch doors and carries the ligature-resistant lever the other two do not.
6) What is a Grade 1 entry/office cylindrical lever comparable to the TownSteel TRX-L-109 for a standard commercial opening without ligature resistance?
The TRX-L-109 is a Grade 1 entrance/office cylindrical lever with a ligature-resistant stainless steel lever and tamper-resistant mounting screws, intended for behavioral, mental and psychiatric healthcare openings. On a standard office door where ligature resistance is not required, the Falcon B511CP6D is a cylindrical lever lock with the same entry/office function at Grade 2, medium duty. Both are lever-operated cylindrical locks; the TRX-L-109 adds the ligature-resistant lever geometry and the higher ANSI grade.
7) What does the Entry/Office function actually do on the TRX-L-109?
Entrance/Office: the outside lever is locked or unlocked by key, and the inside lever always retracts the latch for free egress. It is the function you want on an office, med room, or staff door in a behavioral health unit where staff need to lock the door behind them but nobody can be trapped inside.
8) Do I need to specify keying when I order the TRX-L-109?
Yes, keying is a required selection. Choose keyed different (standard), keyed alike if you want one key across a group of locks, or supply a key code for special keying to an existing system. If you are ordering a batch for one wing, keyed alike or a key code is usually what you want rather than the default KD.
9) Is the TownSteel TRX-L handed?
No handing to call out. It is a sectional cylindrical lockset, so the lever chassis works either hand of door. What you do have to get right is the backset, 2-3/4 or 5 inch, and the cylinder prep.
10) Is a Grade 2 entrance lever like the Falcon B511 or Hager 2525 a fair substitute for the TRX-L-109?
Not for the same duty. The Falcon B511CP6D is a Grade 2 medium duty entrance/office cylindrical lever and the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial entry lever for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors. Both do the same locking function, but the TRX-L is Grade 1 heavy duty with an anti-ligature lever and tamper-resistant screws. On a standard office door the Grade 2 units are a reasonable choice; on a patient room or a high-abuse institutional opening they are not.
11) I need a matching non-keyed lever for closets and corridors on the same wing as the TRX-L-109 - what are the Grade 1 options?
The TRX-L-109 is a keyed single-cylinder unit, so a non-keyed opening needs a different lock. Grade 1 passage cylindrical levers include the Corbin Russwin CL3110, a vandal-resistant passage/closet lever rated for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors and fire rated, the Falcon K101 with non-handed levers for 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Falcon T101 heavy duty passage lever with pressure release technology. None of these carry the ligature-resistant lever of the TRX-L-109, so for patient-accessible doors confirm the specification before substituting.
12) Is a Cal-Royal AUS00 entrance/office lever the same thing as the TownSteel TRX-L-109?
They share the entrance/office function but not the rating or the lever. The Cal-Royal AUS00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office lever lock with a solid brass forged body for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. The TRX-L-109 is ANSI Grade 1, heavy duty, with a ligature-resistant stainless steel lever and tamper-resistant mounting screws, and is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors. For behavioral health openings the ligature-resistant lever is the deciding difference.
13) Which alternative to the TRX-L-109 works if my doors run thinner or thicker than 1-3/4 inch?
The TRX-L-109 is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors. Where the openings vary, the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, the Dexter C1000 asylum function covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Hager 2525 Grade 2 commercial entry lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. Note that these differ in function from the keyed entrance/office TRX-L-109, so match the function to the door as well as the thickness.
14) If I need a storeroom function rather than entrance/office, what takes the place of the TRX-L-109?
Entrance/office on the TRX-L-109 means the outside lever can be left unlocked; a storeroom function keeps the outside lever locked at all times and retracts the latch only by key. The Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever lockset with a deadlocking latchbolt for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom cylindrical lock with the Withnell lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Neither offers the ligature-resistant lever the TRX-L-109 uses.
15) The TRX-L-109 comes with SFIC, Schlage FSIC and Corbin LFIC preps - what if I need to keep a different keyway on a Yale-prepped door?
The TRX-L-109 is offered in standard cylinder as well as SFIC prep, Schlage FSIC prep and Corbin 6-pin LFIC prep, in 2-3/4 inch and 5 inch backsets. If the rest of the building runs Yale hardware and you want Schlage cylinders in it, the Accentra 107S is a Schlage cylinder adapter kit for Yale hardware. For a factory Schlage C keyway on a keyed lever, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever is supplied 6-pin Schlage C keyed different with a 2-3/8 inch backset.
16) What is the electrified equivalent if the opening tied to the TRX-L-109 needs access control?
The TRX-L-109 is a mechanical keyed cylindrical lever with no electrical option. For an access-controlled opening, the Corbin Russwin CL33903 is a Grade 1 electrified cylindrical lever lock, fail safe, 12VAC/DC, for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch thick, which matches the 1-3/4 inch door the TRX-L-109 is specified for. It uses the standard NZ lever rather than a ligature-resistant lever.
17) Is a keypad lever like the Lockey 1150 a substitute for the TRX-L-109?
No. The Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set in passage function for doors 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock. The TRX-L-109 is a Grade 1 keyed entrance/office cylindrical lockset with a ligature-resistant stainless steel lever and tamper-resistant mounting screws for behavioral healthcare openings; a keypad lever changes both the credential and the lever profile, so it is not a like-for-like swap on a patient door.
18) What finish does the TRX-L-109 come in, and will it match other stainless hardware in the building?
630 satin stainless steel, on every configuration. That is the standard institutional and healthcare finish, so it lines up with satin stainless hinges, push plates, and closers already on most behavioral health openings. No other finish is offered on this model.
19) Can I use a dummy lever from another line to match the TRX-L-109 on an inactive leaf?
The TRX-L-109 is a keyed cylindrical lockset and is not supplied as a dummy. Grade 1 dummy trim options include the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy trim, a non-keyed heavy duty cylindrical lever, and the Accentra 455LN Augusta heavy duty Grade 1 single dummy cylindrical lever. Their lever designs will not visually match the ligature-resistant stainless lever of the TRX-L-109, which matters on patient-accessible openings where the ligature-resistant profile is part of the specification.
