Schlage Commercial B661J626 Grade 1 Deadbolt Satin Chrome

Product Description

The SCHLAGE COMMERCIAL B661J626 is a Grade 1 deadbolt designed for commercial and institutional door applications. It features a cylinder-by-blank-plate configuration and is supplied without a large format interchangeable core (LFIC), making it ready for facilities that use a proprietary or site-specific core system. The unit ships with a 12296 latch and a 10094 strike, so the complete hardware set is included. A satin chrome finish provides corrosion resistance suited to high-traffic environments. Grade 1 classification meets the highest ANSI/BHMA performance rating for deadbolts, indicating suitability for heavy commercial use. Licensed locksmiths, commercial door hardware installers, and facility maintenance professionals are the typical installers.

This deadbolt is intended for commercial, institutional, and multi-family construction where a keyed or cored deadbolt is required at an entry door. The blank plate cylinder side allows the hardware to be installed and functional before a large format interchangeable core is inserted, which is common in master key or access control rollout scenarios. The satin chrome finish coordinates with standard commercial hardware suites. Each unit is sold individually, with a case quantity of four available for larger projects.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed locksmith or qualified commercial door hardware technician familiar with ANSI-rated deadbolt hardware and interchangeable core systems.
