TownSteel XME-2010-S-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a TownSteel XME-2000 drop into an existing ASA mortise prep and use my current strike?
The XME-2000 uses a 1-1/4 inch x 4-7/8 inch ASA strike and a 1-1/8 inch x 8 inch stainless steel face plate, which is the standard commercial mortise prep. Latch throw is 3/4 inch. If the door you're replacing already has an ASA strike in that size and a standard mortise pocket, the lock body and face plate line up and the existing strike will catch the latch. What changes is the door face: the keypad escutcheon needs the through-bores for the electronics, so check against the manufacturer template before you cut.
2) What's the difference between the rigid lever and the clutched lever on the TownSteel XME-2000?
Rigid means the outside lever is fixed solid when the lock is secure, so force applied to it goes straight into the chassis. Clutched means the outside lever spins free when the code hasn't been entered, so someone yanking or hanging on the handle doesn't load the internal parts. On high-traffic or abuse-prone openings, a school corridor or a public gate, the clutched version takes the beating better. XME-2010 is rigid, XME-2020 is clutched, and the same split repeats across the high-security cylinder and deadbolt models: 2030 rigid, 2040 clutched, 2050 rigid with deadbolt, 2060 clutched with deadbolt, 2070 and 2080 the high-security cylinder pair with deadbolt.
3) How many user codes can a TownSteel XME-2000 keypad lock hold?
106 programmable codes total on the XME-2000: 1 master, 10 manager, 90 user, and 5 service codes. That's enough to give every unit in a small multi-family building or every staff member on a shift their own code, and the service codes cover cleaners or contractors you want to track separately from residents. If you're managing a property that needs hundreds of individual credentials, look at the Alarm Lock DL3500CR, which we list with 300 user codes, or the DL4500 deadbolt at 2,000.
4) Can I get into the door if the batteries die or the keypad fails on a TownSteel XME-2000?
Mechanical key override is built into every XME-2000. The keyed cylinder retracts the latch independently of the electronics, so a dead battery or a failed board doesn't lock you out of the opening. That matters on a perimeter gate where you can't put a maintenance ladder on the inside. Cylinder choice runs standard on the 2010 and 2020, or high-security on the 2030, 2040, 2070 and 2080 if you need key control on top of the code control.
5) Is the TownSteel XME-2000 keypad lock rated for outdoor gates and exterior entries?
Outdoor gates are what the XME-2000 is aimed at: perimeter fencing, security gates, and exposed entries alongside commercial and institutional doors. The 622 flat black finish is called out for outdoor use. One thing to settle before you order: the lock takes a 1-3/4 inch door thickness only, and gate leaves are often thinner or thicker than a commercial door, so measure the stile of the gate frame you're mounting into.
6) Which TownSteel XME-2000 model do I order if I need a deadbolt as well as the latch?
Four of the eight models carry a deadbolt: XME-2050 (rigid), XME-2060 (clutched), XME-2070 (high-security cylinder, rigid) and XME-2080 (high-security cylinder, clutched). The 2010 through 2040 are latch-only. Deadbolt versions are the ones to spec where you want a positive second point of security overnight, a storefront back door or a gate you close down after hours. The base latch throw is 3/4 inch on all of them.
7) What do I need to specify when ordering a TownSteel XME-2000 besides the model number?
Five things settle the order. Model, one of XME-2010 through 2080, which fixes rigid or clutched lever, standard or high-security cylinder, and deadbolt or not. Lever style: Sentinel, Quest or Gala. Finish: 613 satin bronze oil rubbed or 626 satin chrome. Keying: keyed different is standard, keyed alike if you want one key across multiple locks, or a specific key code if you're matching an existing system, in which case you supply the code. And the programming pack, which carries the programming, register and clear keycards. If this is your first XME lock on site, take the programming pack; without those cards you don't have the tools to set the lock up.
8) What does classroom function mean on the TownSteel XME-2000, and is it the right function for my door?
Classroom function on the XME-2000 means the outside lever is locked or unlocked from the outside, and the inside lever always retracts the latch for free egress. Nobody gets locked in. It suits a corridor door, a classroom, or a gate you want secured from the public side while people inside can always get out. If you actually need privacy, a door that locks from the inside for a restroom or a resident unit, this is the wrong function; the Schlage CO-100 keypad mortise lock is the privacy-function electronic equivalent we carry, and the Alarm Lock DL4500 is a keypad deadbolt with privacy.
9) My gate doors are 1-5/8 inch thick. What electronic mortise keypad lock should I use instead of the TownSteel XME-2000?
The XME-2000 is a single-thickness lock, 1-3/4 inches only, so a 1-5/8 inch leaf is outside it. Alarm Lock's Trilogy line covers 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch: the DL2700CR is the Grade 1 classroom-function weatherproof model, closest to what the XME-2000 does, and the DL3500CR is the same classroom function with 300 user codes. Both are keypad electronic mortise locks like the TownSteel.
10) What is the closest equivalent to the TownSteel XME-2000 keypad mortise lock in classroom function from another brand?
The Alarm Lock DL2700CR Trilogy T2 is the nearest match. It is an electronic mortise lock with a keypad, Grade 1, classroom function, and a weatherproof design, which lines up with the XME-2000's Grade 1 classroom electronic mortise chassis. The difference that decides the order is door thickness: the XME-2000 is built for 1-3/4 inch doors, while the DL2700CR covers 1-5/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch. If the door is a standard 1-3/4 inch commercial leaf, either fits; if it is thinner or thicker than that band, check the range before you swap.
11) I need more than 106 codes on a keypad mortise lock - what should I buy instead of the TownSteel XME-2000?
The XME-2000 holds 1 master code, 10 manager codes, 90 user codes and 5 service codes. Where a site needs a deeper code list, the Alarm Lock DL3500CR Trilogy carries 300 user codes and is a Grade 1 classroom electronic mortise lock, and the Alarm Lock DL4500 Series carries 2,000 user codes with a privacy keypad. Note the DL4500 is a deadbolt function rather than a latching classroom lockset, so it changes how the opening operates; the DL3500CR keeps classroom function while raising the code count.
12) What is the difference between the TownSteel XME-2000 and the Schlage CO-100 mortise keypad lock?
Both are standalone electronic mortise locks with a keypad, both Grade 1 heavy duty, and both are built for 1-3/4 inch doors. The function is what separates them: the XME-2000 is a classroom lock, while the Schlage CO-100-MS-40-KP is a privacy function. Classroom is for a door secured from the outside with free egress and key or code control of the outside lever; privacy is for a room locked from the inside. Pick from the opening, not the keypad.
13) Which keypad mortise lock should I use if I need it tied into an access control system rather than standalone?
The XME-2000 is a standalone keypad lock, programmed at the door, with remote unlock terminals for a push button or fire alarm tie-in. When the door needs to report to and be managed from a head end, look at the Alarm Lock DL1300NW Trilogy Networx, a wireless electronic mortise lock with keypad built for Adams Rite deadlatches, or the Schlage Electronics LEMD-GRW ENGAGE Series Grade 1 wireless mortise lock with a 125kHz proximity reader and mobile-enabled deadbolt. The DL1300NW is specific to Adams Rite deadlatch openings, so confirm the door prep before substituting it for a full mortise chassis.
14) Can I key a group of TownSteel XME-2000 locks alike so one key opens all of them?
Keyed alike is one of the three keying choices on the XME-2000, alongside keyed different (the standard) and special keying to a code you provide. For a property manager running a block of units or a facility standardizing a maintenance key, keyed alike means the override key is the same across every lock in the order. If you're extending an existing TownSteel system rather than starting fresh, use the special key code option and give us the code so the new locks match what your keyring already carries.
15) Is the TownSteel XME-2000 a real Grade 1 lock or just a keypad on a light chassis?
Grade 1 and heavy duty, on a mortise chassis, not a cylindrical one. A mortise body sits in a pocket routed into the door edge and carries load through the full 1-1/8 x 8 inch stainless face plate, which is why it holds up on institutional openings where a tubular keypad lock wears out. For an MRO or institutional buyer standardizing a facility, that puts it in the same class as the Alarm Lock DL2700CR and DL3500CR classroom-function electronic mortise locks and the Schlage CO-100 mortise, all of which we list as Grade 1.
16) Can a TownSteel XME-2000 unlock from a push button or release on a fire alarm?
Remote unlock terminals are built into the XME-2000 for push button or fire alarm integration, so you can wire it to a reception release or tie it into the building's alarm system to drop the lock on an alarm event. That's the difference between a pure standalone keypad and one you can bring into a wider access scheme. If you need full networked control rather than a wired release, the Alarm Lock DL1300NW Trilogy Networx is a wireless networked keypad mortise lock, though it is built for Adams Rite deadlatches rather than a standard ASA mortise prep.
17) How does the TownSteel XME-2000 compare to a card or mobile credential mortise lock?
The XME-2000 is code-and-key: a keypad with up to 106 codes plus a mechanical override, standalone, no credentials to issue or replace. That's the low-overhead choice for a gate or a small property where handing out a number beats managing cards. If you'd rather issue credentials, the Dormakaba Saffire LX-I-M002 is an RFID mortise lockset with BLE mobile access at BHMA Grade 2, the Accentra nexTouch NTM623-NR uses a capacitive touchscreen keypad with cylinder override, and the Schlage LEMD-GRW ENGAGE is a Grade 1 wireless mortise with a 125kHz proximity reader. Card and mobile systems need a management platform behind them; the keypad does not.
18) I want to standardize a building on classroom-function mortise locks but only some doors need a keypad. What matches the TownSteel XME-2000 mechanically?
For openings that don't need electronics, a keyed classroom mortise lock in the same 1-3/4 inch prep keeps the building consistent: the Cal-Royal NM8070 is a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch at 1-3/4 inch, and the Corbin Russwin ML2003 is a Grade 1 mortise classroom lockset, also 1-3/4 inch. Both share the classroom function and door thickness with the XME-2000, so the door preps and the way people use the doors stay the same across the facility; only the credentialed doors carry the keypad.
19) Does the TownSteel XME-2000 need power run to the door like a wired electric mortise lock?
No. The XME-2000 works as a standalone keypad lock at the door with mechanical key override. Locks such as the BEST 45HW wired electromechanical mortise lock, which runs on 12V or 24V, the Command Access ML190 motorized mortise lock with field selectable EL/EU operation on 24VDC, and the Schlage L9092EU 03A electric lock/unlock lever with request to exit on 12/24VDC all require power transferred to the leaf and a supply behind it. If the gate or door has no power path, the XME-2000 avoids that scope entirely.
20) Can a Codelocks CL2255 replace a TownSteel XME-2000 on a commercial gate?
They are not the same class of hardware. The Codelocks CL2255 is an electronic tubular mortise latch in brushed steel rated medium duty. The XME-2000 is a heavy duty Grade 1 mortise chassis. On a perimeter gate, a commercial entry, or any high-traffic opening where a Grade 1 heavy duty lock is specified, the CL2255 is a lighter-duty latch and will not satisfy that requirement.
21) I want a keypad lock with a built-in deadbolt - how does the TownSteel XME-2000 compare to a keypad deadbolt?
The XME-2000 offers deadbolt configurations directly: XME-2050 rigid with deadbolt, XME-2060 clutched with deadbolt, XME-2070 high security cylinder rigid with deadbolt, and XME-2080 high security cylinder clutched with deadbolt, all on the same Grade 1 classroom chassis. The Alarm Lock DL4500 Series is a Grade 1 electronic mortise deadbolt with a privacy keypad, but it is a deadbolt function on its own rather than a latching lockset with a deadbolt added, so it does not give you a lever-operated latch at the same opening.
22) The Schlage LE Series mobile-enabled mortise lock was suggested to us - is it the same grade as the TownSteel XME-2000?
No. The Schlage Electronics LEBMB-ADD is a mobile-enabled mortise lock with push button and LED covering privacy, office and apartment functions, and it is Grade 2 with a 3 hour fire rating for 1-3/4 inch doors. The XME-2000 is Grade 1 and heavy duty. If the specification on the drawing calls for ANSI/BHMA Grade 1, the LEBMB-ADD does not meet it; if a fire rating is what drives the opening, the LE Series carries a stated 3 hour rating.
23) We are standardizing a building on Grade 1 mortise locks - what pairs with the TownSteel XME-2000 on the doors that do not need a keypad?
Within the same Grade 1 mortise family for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Cal-Royal line covers the other functions on the schedule: NM8050 office/entrance with auxiliary deadlatch, NM8080 storeroom with an interchangeable core option, and NM8440 privacy with deadbolt. The Accentra 8805FL is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock with an Arcadia lever. Keeping the keypad-controlled openings on the XME-2000 and the rest on mechanical Grade 1 mortise chassis holds one grade and one lock type across the facility.
24) Will a Dormakaba E-Plex 2066 do the same job as a TownSteel XME-2000?
The Dormakaba E-Plex 2066 is an electronic pushbutton keyless mortise lock built for wide stile applications, and the PowerPlex P2066 is the same 2000 series mortise family. Keyless means the credential is the code alone, where the XME-2000 pairs its keypad with mechanical key override so a key opens the door if the electronics are unavailable. If a maintenance or emergency key path is required at the opening, that override is the deciding difference.
25) Which finishes and levers does the TownSteel XME-2000 keypad lock come in?
Two finishes, 613 satin bronze oil rubbed and 626 satin chrome, across three lever styles: Sentinel, Quest and Gala. That's the full set. Satin chrome is the one that matches most existing commercial hardware on a building; the darker oil rubbed bronze suits exterior gates and residential-facing entries where bright chrome looks out of place.
26) Is a mortise deadbolt a substitute for the TownSteel XME-2000 keypad lockset?
No. 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. Both are bolt-only bodies with no lever, no latch and no keypad, so they secure an opening but give no code-controlled entry and no latching operation. The XME-2000 is a full classroom mortise lockset with a keypad; a deadbolt of this kind supplements such a lock rather than replacing it.
27) Are the Emtek mortise entrance locksets an alternative to the TownSteel XME-2000?
They serve a different purpose. The Emtek 3019 Brisbane, 3102 Memphis, 3104 Hamilton and 3106 Manhattan mortise entrance locksets are dummy function - fixed trim with no latch operation and no locking. The XME-2000 is a heavy duty Grade 1 classroom lockset with a keypad. Dummy trim goes on an inactive leaf or a door that does not latch; it is not a security option for a controlled opening.
28) What mortise lock should go on doors that only need free passage where a TownSteel XME-2000 would be overkill?
For an opening with no security requirement, a passage mortise lock does the job: the Schlage PM010 is a Grade 1 non-keyed passage latch mortise lock for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Falcon MA101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise passage lock with field reversible operation and a fire rating, and the Hager 3810S and 3810E are Grade 1 passage mortise locks with a 2-3/4 inch backset, in rose and escutcheon trim respectively. None of these lock or accept a credential, so keep the XME-2000 on the doors that need code control.
29) For a dormitory or corridor opening, what mortise lock is used instead of a TownSteel XME-2000?
The Sargent 7925 is a Grade 1 heavy duty corridor/dormitory exit function mortise lock with rose trim and a single cylinder deadbolt, and the BEST 45HCA with intruder function is a heavy duty mortise lock body for rooms that lock down from inside. Both are key and thumbturn operated. The XME-2000 stays the choice where the opening needs code entry with mechanical key override on a Grade 1 classroom chassis.
