Schlage ND80JD Rho 643E Grade 1 Storeroom Lock

Product Description

The SCHLAGE ND80JD RHO 643E is a Grade 1 commercial storeroom lock designed for high-traffic access control applications. It features the Rhodes lever trim and ships as an FSIC (Full Size Interchangeable Core) prep without a core installed, allowing facilities to field-install their existing Best-style or Schlage FSIC core. The 643E finish is an Aged Bronze, providing a durable, dark-toned appearance suited to commercial and institutional hardware schedules. The non-handed design simplifies ordering and installation by fitting both left- and right-hand door preparations without modification.

This storeroom function lock is suited for commercial and institutional settings such as server rooms, storage areas, pharmacies, and supply closets where outside access requires a credential at all times and free egress is required from the inside. The FSIC less-core configuration is common in master-keyed facilities where a single core system is managed across many lock bodies. Locksmiths, facilities managers, and commercial door hardware installers typically specify and install this product as part of a broader access control or master key program.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed locksmith or qualified commercial door hardware technician familiar with ANSI A115 prep standards and FSIC core insertion procedures. Verify the door preparation, backset, and face bore dimensions before installation. Do not install the core until the lock body is fully secured to the door and all trim is properly aligned. Always confirm egress function is unobstructed before returning the door to service.
