The PDQ GT116 PHL represents the pinnacle of commercial door security and durability. Engineered as a Grade 1 Cylindrical Lockset, this hardware is designed for high-traffic corporate offices, government buildings, and institutional facilities where reliability is a non-negotiable requirement. Featuring the architectural Philadelphia (PHL) lever style, the GT Series provides a modern aesthetic without sacrificing the "over-built" internal strength necessary to withstand extreme physical abuse.
With an industry-leading 2100 in-lbs of torque resistance, the GT116 is purpose-built to solve the problem of vandal-induced lock failure. Its heavy-duty chromated cold-rolled steel mechanism and billet steel spindles ensure that your facility remains secure even under high-stress conditions.
ANSI F109 Office Entry Function: Precision Access Control
The ANSI F109 (Office/Entry) function is the preferred solution for office doors that require flexible locking modes throughout the business day. This function allows the user to determine the security level of the room from the interior.
- Standard Operation: The latchbolt is operated by the lever from either side unless the outside lever is locked by the interior push/turn button.
- Push-Button Locking: When the inside button is pushed, the outside lever is locked. Access is granted via key from the outside or by rotating the inside lever, which also unlocks the outside lever for free passage.
- Push-and-Turn Security: For enhanced privacy, pushing and turning the button keeps the outside lever locked even after the door is opened or the inside lever is rotated. Entry requires a key until the button is manually returned to the unlocked position.
- Deadlocking Feature: Includes a deadlocking latchbolt to prevent "shimming" or "loiding" attacks with credit cards or tools.

High-Performance Solutions for Modern Facilities
The PDQ GT Series is engineered to address the specific pain points of commercial facility management:
- Eliminate Lever Sag: Most Grade 2 and even some Grade 1 locks suffer from drooping levers over time. The GT Series utilizes a heavy-duty spring cage and a precise 41° lever rotation to ensure the Philadelphia lever stays perfectly horizontal for the life of the building.
