Schlage Commercial ND53LATH625 Nd Series Entry Lever Lock

Product Description

The SCHLAGE COMMERCIAL ND53LATH625 is an entry-function lever lock from the ND Series, designed for commercial and institutional door applications. It is a less-cylinder configuration, meaning the cylinder core is ordered separately to match the facility keying system. The Athens lever trim gives the hardware a clean, architectural profile. The bright chrome finish (625) provides corrosion resistance for high-traffic interior and exterior openings. This lock ships with a 13-247 latch and 10-025 strike included, making it a complete door prep package for the locksmith or commercial door installer.

The ND53LATH625 is intended for commercial buildings, institutional facilities, and multi-family properties where controlled entry access is required. The less-cylinder design is common in new construction and renovation projects where facility managers specify a master key system. A licensed locksmith or commercial door hardware installer handles the core selection and final keying to match site requirements. The Athens lever style is a widely accepted trim in office, healthcare, and educational environments.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed locksmith or qualified commercial door hardware technician familiar with ANSI standard door prep requirements. Verify door thickness, backset, and cross-bore dimensions before installation. Do not install the cylinder core until the lever chassis is fully secured to the door and all fasteners are seated. Consult local building codes for egress and accessibility requirements that may apply to entry-function hardware in commercial occupancies.
