Product Description
The SCHLAGE COMMERCIAL 16203605 is a square corner adjustable deadlatch designed for commercial and institutional door hardware applications. This latch features an adjustable backset to accommodate varying door preparations, and its square corner faceplate suits standard commercial door frames requiring a clean, flush fit. Finished in bright brass, it is appropriate for installations where a traditional metal finish is specified. Licensed locksmiths, commercial door hardware installers, and general contractors typically handle installation of this component as part of a complete lockset assembly.
This deadlatch is part of the Schlage S Series hardware line and is suited for commercial, institutional, and multi-family residential entry doors. It functions as the latching mechanism within a cylindrical lockset, engaging automatically when the door closes and resisting retraction without the proper credential. The square corner faceplate configuration is commonly specified in commercial door frames where a mortised faceplate pocket is required for a flush mount.
