Schlage Commercial 16203613 Adjustable Deadlatch

Product Description

The SCHLAGE COMMERCIAL 16203613 is an S Series square corner adjustable deadlatch finished in oil rubbed bronze. A deadlatch is a spring-driven latch bolt with an anti-retraction plunger that prevents the bolt from being pushed back without turning the lever or knob. This unit features a square corner faceplate and an adjustable backset, making it suitable for a range of door preparations. It is installed by licensed locksmiths, commercial door and hardware professionals, and qualified facilities maintenance technicians working on commercial or institutional door assemblies.

This deadlatch is designed for use in commercial and institutional applications where a durable, field-adjustable latch mechanism is required. The oil rubbed bronze finish suits environments where a darker, traditional hardware aesthetic is specified. Its adjustable backset accommodates standard commercial door prep dimensions, reducing the need to stock multiple fixed-backset latch units on the job.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed locksmith or qualified door hardware professional in accordance with applicable building and fire code requirements.
