Schlage Commercial ND94JRHO626 Vandlgard Classroom Lockset

Product Description

The SCHLAGE COMMERCIAL ND94JRHO626 is a heavy-duty Vandlgard classroom lockset from the ND Series, designed for large format less core (LFLC) applications in commercial and institutional environments. This unit ships with a 13-247 latch and 10-025 strike included, finished in satin chrome (626). The Rhodes trim style provides a clean, institutional aesthetic suited to high-traffic openings. At 4.55 pounds, the lockset is built to withstand the demands of school corridors, healthcare facilities, and other commercial settings where durability and code compliance are non-negotiable priorities for facility managers and licensed locksmiths.

The ND94JRHO626 is intended for classroom security function installations where the door must be lockable from the corridor side without a key on the interior. The large format less core configuration allows the end user to field-install a compatible large format interchangeable core (LFIC) from a specified keying system. This makes it well suited for institutional facilities — schools, universities, government buildings, and healthcare campuses — where a master key or best-in-class key control program is already in place. The included latch and strike reduce the need for separate hardware procurement on standard door preparations.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style commercial lockset for standard cylindrical large format less core door preparations in the ND Series product family. Specific core compatibility depends on the large format interchangeable core system in use at the facility; consult the keying system manufacturer for confirmed fitment.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed locksmith or qualified commercial door hardware technician familiar with ANSI/BHMA standards and applicable building codes. Confirm door prep dimensions and backset requirements before installation. The large format core is not included and must be ordered separately; do not operate the lockset in a cored configuration until the appropriate core is installed and the function is verified. Always test locking function and emergency egress before returning the opening to service.
