Schlage ND70BD Ath 622 Classroom Lock Matte Black

Product Description

The SCHLAGE ND70BD ATH 622 is a Grade 1 commercial classroom lock built for institutional and commercial door hardware applications. It features the Athens lever design and is prepared for Small Format Interchangeable Core (SFIC) installation without a core included, allowing facilities to integrate their existing keying system. The Matte Black (622) finish provides a clean, professional appearance suited to modern commercial interiors. This lock is non-handed, meaning it installs on either left-hand or right-hand doors without modification. Installation is performed by licensed locksmiths or commercial door hardware professionals.

This lock is designed for classroom security applications in schools, universities, and other institutional facilities. The SFIC prep configuration makes it well suited for facilities that use master-keyed or large-scale interchangeable core systems across multiple doors. The Grade 1 rating reflects the highest level of durability and security under ANSI/BHMA standards, making it appropriate for high-traffic commercial environments where reliable lockdown capability is required.
