Schlage B252J 626 Grade 2 Double Cylinder Deadlatch

Product Description

The SCHLAGE B252J 626 is a Grade 2 double cylinder deadlatch designed for commercial and light commercial door applications. It features a Schlage Full Size Interchangeable Core (FSIC) less core configuration, meaning the core is not included and must be ordered separately to match your keying system. The 2-3/8 inch backset suits standard door preps, and the satin chrome (626) finish provides a clean, corrosion-resistant appearance suited to high-traffic entry points. Licensed locksmiths and commercial door hardware installers are the primary trades handling this product.

This deadlatch is appropriate for commercial buildings, office suites, schools, and institutional facilities where Grade 2 security and interchangeable core keying flexibility are required. The FSIC format allows facilities managers to rekey or re-core doors without replacing the entire lockset, making it a practical choice for access control programs. The double cylinder configuration requires a key on both the interior and exterior sides of the door, which is a common requirement for doors with adjacent glass panels or sidelights.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed locksmith or qualified commercial door hardware technician familiar with ANSI Grade 2 hardware and interchangeable core systems. Ensure the door is properly backed out of service and all related access control wiring is de-energized before beginning installation. Verify door prep dimensions and backset measurement prior to installation. The core must be ordered and installed separately before the lock is placed into service.
