Overview
About this product
The Schlage ALX40 Athens is a Grade 2 cylindrical lever lock in the bath/bedroom privacy (coin turn outside) function (F76) from the ALX Series. It is a common choice for restrooms, bedrooms and single-occupant rooms where people need quick privacy. The Athens lever has a 3-5/16 inch projection and mounts on a 3-7/16" Rhodes rose.
It fits doors 1-3/8" to 1-3/4" thick with a 2-3/4" backset and a 2-1/8 Inch cross bore. The lock carries a UL 3-hour fire rating with UL/cUL listing, the ADA field in its specs is marked Yes, and it comes with a 10 Year Limited warranty. The latch bolt is stainless steel and the zinc and steel chassis parts are plated for corrosion protection.
What the function does
Pressing the push button on the inside lever locks the outside lever. Turning the inside lever or closing the door releases the button and unlocks it. The inside lever always opens the door, and the outside has an emergency coin turn release.
