Description
The Schlage L9044 is an extra-heavy-duty mortise lock built for high-traffic institutional environments like schools, hospitals, and factories. It meets ANSI Grade 1 safety standards and features a fully wrapped steel case, zinc dichromate-plated components, and anti-friction tongue design to resist constant use, abuse, and door-edge attacks.
