Overview
About this product
The Schlage PC70 Athens Classroom Lever Lock pairs the Athens lever with the classroom function (ANSI F84) on a Grade 1 cylindrical chassis. It is a good fit for classrooms, training rooms, labs and shared offices: rooms where staff control access from the hallway with a key.
The lock meets ANSI/BHMA A156.2-2022 Series 4000, Grade 1, and carries a UL 3-hour fire rating under UL 10C. It fits doors 1-3/8" to 1-3/4" thick with a 2-3/4" backset, and the Athens lever sits on a 3-7/16" Rhodes wrought brass rose.
A deadlocking latch with a 1/2" throw engages a standard ANSI 1-1/4" x 4-7/8" strike. The lever projects 3.31 inches from the door, and the lock is available in finishes 613, 619, 622, 625, 626, 643E.
What the function does
Outside: a key in the outside lever locks or unlocks the outside lever. Inside: there is no button; the inside lever is always free, so the door can always be opened from the room. The latch bolt is deadlocking. Locking happens from the corridor side only.

What door thickness and backset does it fit?
It fits doors from 1-3/8" to 1-3/4" thick with a 2-3/4" backset, using the standard cylindrical door prep.
Can I use it with an interchangeable core system?
Yes. Besides the conventional 6-pin cylinder, it can be ordered SFIC prepped (with a construction core or less core), Schlage FSIC prepped (with a construction core or less core), or less cylinder.
Is it fire rated?
Yes. It carries a UL 3-hour rating and is listed under UL 10C, so it can be used on labeled fire doors.
Is the lever ADA compliant?
Yes. The lever meets ADA requirements and conforms to ICC A117.1 Accessible and Usable Buildings and Facilities.
Can a teacher lock the door from inside the classroom?
Not with this function. The outside lever is locked and unlocked only with a key from the hallway side; the inside lever is always free.
