Extra Heavy Duty Mortise Locks
The Schlage L-Series mortise lock line is a heavy duty commercial mortise lock
containing a wide array of knob and lever designs. It is available in a variety
of keyed and non-keyed functions, and in most popular decorative finishes.
It is U.L. Listed and can be specified for applications in offices, schools, hospitals,
hotels, and commercial buildings, as well as residences. The L-Series lock meets
or exceeds the ANSI A156.13 specification, making it the best choice for any
building where security, safety, and design compatibility are the prime consider ations.
The L-Series lock uses one common mortise lock case for all trim. This allows
excellent design flexibility in trim combinations such as knob by lever, lever by
knob, as well as knob by knob or lever by lever. The outstanding feature of
its quickly-reversible handing, allowing orders to be filled quickly at the
distributor level from stock on hand. Our L9000-Series mortise lock can
be easily handed on-site without disassembling the lock case.
