Knurled Designs

Where required by the local authority, trim can be knurled to be identifiable to the touch for blind persons. All knob designs except CA may be ordered knurled; all lever designs except designer trim and Reflections® trim may be ordered knurled.

Only the outside knob or lever will be knurled or abrasive coated unless specified otherwise. To order a complete lockset knurled or abrasive coated, suffix the lockset model number with “Knurled” or “Abrasive Coated,” i.e. LF x CN8807 x “Knurled,” LF x CN8817-2 x “Knurled Inside Only,” AU x CN8828FL “Abrasive Coated.”

Lead Shielding

All Yale 8800 series mortise locks are available with a lead shield for installation in lead-lined doors. To order, suffix the lockset model number with “lead-lined.”

Quick Reversibility

Yale mortise locks with the same trim on both sides (knob x knob or lever x lever) are field reversible. These locks can be converted to accommodate the hand of the door. However, to reduce installation costs, it is recommended that the hand of the door be specified for each lockset ordered. If the hand of the door is not specified, RH will be furnished.
