Accentra PBR 8805FL Storeroom Mortise Lock – Grade 1 Security (Less Mortise Cylinder)

Function Info:

The Storeroom Function (ANSI F07) is designed for maximum security on utility, storage, and exit doors where the exterior entry must be restricted at all times. On the Accentra PBR 8805FL, the exterior Pacific Beach lever remains rigid and cannot be turned; access is only granted by a mechanical key. Conversely, the interior lever is always active, allowing for free and immediate egress—a critical safety feature for commercial facilities. This configuration ensures that the door is always locked to those on the outside, while those on the inside can never be locked in.

The Accentra PBR 8805FL (formerly Yale 8800 series) combines the sleek, modern aesthetic of the Pacific Beach (PBR) lever with a heavy-duty Grade 1 chassis. Housed in a wrought steel, zinc-dichromate plated case, this lock features a deadlocking latchbolt to thwart shimming and unauthorized manipulation. With its 3-hour fire rating, it is the definitive choice for Commercial Door Hardware that must meet stringent building and life-safety codes.

Function Details: Storeroom (ANSI F07)

The Storeroom Function is specifically engineered for high-security areas such as utility rooms, storage closets, and exit doors where external entry must be restricted by default. This mechanical configuration provides the following operational features:

• Restricted Exterior Entry: The outside lever/knob is rigid at all times and cannot be rotated. Access is only possible by using a mechanical key to retract the latchbolt.
• Safe Egress: The inside lever/knob is always active, ensuring that occupants can exit the room at any time without the use of a key.
• Deadlocking Security: Equipped with a deadlocking latchbolt that prevents "shimming" or unauthorized manipulation of the latch when the door is closed.
• Application: Ideal for any opening requiring a high level of security where the door must remain locked to those on the outside while permitting free exit.
