Schlage Commercial ND96LRHO626 Storeroom Lockset Satin Chrome

Product Description

The SCHLAGE COMMERCIAL ND96LRHO626 is a heavy-duty storeroom lockset from the ND Series, built for commercial and institutional door hardware applications. This Vandlgard-rated unit features the Rhodes lever trim and ships with a 13-247 latch and 10-025 strike included. The less-cylinder configuration means the lockset is supplied without a core, making it compatible with customer-supplied or field-installed cylinders. Finished in satin chrome (626), it suits high-traffic corridors, storage rooms, and utility spaces where durability and consistent function are required. Installation and service are typically handled by a licensed locksmith or commercial door hardware technician.

This lockset is designed for commercial and institutional storeroom applications where outside entry requires a key at all times and the inside lever remains fixed. Typical installations include stockrooms, server rooms, utility closets, and similar spaces in offices, schools, healthcare facilities, and government buildings. The Rhodes lever design meets ADA lever requirements when properly installed per applicable codes. The included latch and strike reduce the number of separate components required at rough-in.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified locksmith or commercial door hardware technician familiar with ANSI/BHMA standards for cylindrical locksets. Power down any access control wiring at the door before beginning work. Verify door prep dimensions match the lockset requirements before installation. The less-cylinder configuration requires a separately sourced core to complete the locking function; do not place the lockset into service without a properly fitted cylinder installed.
