Overview
About this product
Schlage's ALX53 Tubular lock is an ALX Series cylindrical lever set built to ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Series 4000, Grade 2, in the entrance (push/turn button) function (F109). It is a common choice for offices and entry doors that should stay locked until someone deliberately unlocks them. The Tubular lever has a 3 inch projection and mounts on a 3-7/16" Rhodes rose.
Installation calls for doors 1-3/8" to 1-3/4" thick with a 2-3/4" backset and a 2-1/8 Inch cross bore. It is UL/cUL listed for openings up to a UL 3-hour rating, it is marked ADA compliant, and the warranty is 10 Year Limited. A stainless steel latch bolt and plated zinc and steel internals help it hold up in daily commercial use. It ships with a conventional 6-pin cylinder, keyed different, or you can order it less cylinder, with SFIC prep, or with Schlage FSIC prep, and Corbin Russwin and Sargent LFIC preps are also offered.
What the function does
Pushing and turning the button on the inside locks the outside lever. It stays locked, and a key is needed to enter from outside, until someone turns the button back to unlock it. The inside lever always lets people out.

How is the ALX53 different from a regular button lock?
The button on the ALX53 is pushed and turned, and it stays locked until someone manually turns it back. Closing the door or turning the inside lever does not unlock it.
Will it fit my door?
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 strike is ANSI 1-1/4 Inch x 4-7/8 Inch.
Can I use it on a fire-rated door?
Yes. It carries a UL 3-hour fire rating and is UL/cUL listed.
Is it ADA compliant?
Yes. The specs list it as ADA compliant, and it uses lever handles rather than knobs.
What cylinder options are available?
The standard version has a conventional 6-pin cylinder, keyed different. You can also order it less cylinder, or prepped for SFIC or Schlage FSIC cores, with or without a construction core. Corbin Russwin and Sargent LFIC preps are available too.
What finishes can I choose?
Finishes include 605, 606, 612, 613, 619, 622, 625, 626, 626AM and 643E.
