Heavy Duty Mortise Locks
- Solid one-piece stainless steel anti-friction latch provides 50% more surface contact with strike for superior strength and security. Reversible latch rotates 180 degrees for easy handing change without opening case. Precision-engineered curve provides enhanced cycle life with reduced wear to the strike.
- Non-handed cylinder retainer and stainless steel auxiliary bolt for ease of changing hand.
- Armored front completely surrounds latch and deadbolt providing increased lateral strength. Staked assembly design allows the armored front to self-align with the door bevel during installation.
- Enhanced case integrity achieved through four case cover screws (one at each corner), plus interlocking armored front and cover design at the latch.
- Roller bearing hub mechanism provides smooth, wear resistant operation.
- Locking toggle includes clear indication of “locked” and “unlocked” states.
- 40H case, cover, and armored front manufactured from 0.095” cold rolled steel for strength and durability.

- Four position hub toggle design determines whether each hub is always locked, always unlocked, or locked by key for easy handing change without opening case.
- Lever return spring mechanism located in trim for enhanced protection against lever droop, providing a firm, positive return of the lever to the horizontal position.
- Self-aligning trim mechanism for fast, easy, and accurate installation.
- Curved lip strike and strike box assembly provides an aesthetic, non-handed solution to complement field reversible case.
- Solid machined cylinder rings with tension spring provide resistance to wrenching of cylinder. Cylinder security screw prevents removal of cylinder without first removing interchangeable core.
