Schlage ALX80B Rho 625 Storeroom Cylindrical Lock

Product Description

The SCHLAGE ALX80B RHO 625 is a Grade 2 storeroom cylindrical lock designed for commercial and light institutional door hardware applications. It features the Rhodes lever trim and ships without a core, configured for Small Format Interchangeable Core (SFIC) installation. The lock includes field-selectable Vandlgard protection, which resists lever tampering without requiring a separate tool at time of service. The Bright Chrome finish (625) provides a clean, professional appearance suited to interior commercial doors. Non-handed design allows installation on either left- or right-hand swing doors without modification.

This lock is appropriate for storeroom-function doors in commercial buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, and office environments. In a storeroom function, the outside lever is always locked and requires a key to retract the latch, while the inside lever remains free for egress at all times. The SFIC less-core configuration allows facilities using a Small Format IC keying system to install their own cores in the field, making it a practical fit for large keyway management programs.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed locksmith or qualified door hardware technician familiar with cylindrical lock chassis and SFIC core systems. Verify door thickness and backset dimensions before installation to confirm fitment. The core is not included and must be ordered separately; do not operate the lock under load without a properly seated core or a control key inserted. Follow ANSI and local building code requirements for storeroom-function hardware in commercial occupancies.
