PDQ KT116 Single Cylinder Commercial Deadlock
Function Information:
- Lock or unlock by key from outside, by thumb turn from inside
- ANSI E1151
The PDQ KT116 is an institutional-grade Single Cylinder Deadlock engineered to provide a secondary layer of high-strength security for commercial storefronts, utility rooms, and office suites. Designed for durability and ease of installation, the KT Series is a "problem-solver" for facility managers who need a reliable, heavy-duty deadbolt that fits a standard 161 door prep.
Constructed with a reinforced zinc diecast rose and a wrought brass scalp, this deadlock is built to withstand the physical demands of high-traffic environments. The US26D Satin Chrome finish offers a professional, corrosion-resistant surface that blends seamlessly with existing commercial hardware.
ANSI E1151 Function Summary: Single Cylinder Security
The ANSI E1151 (Single Cylinder) function provides a balance of high-level exterior security and life-safety compliance for interior egress.
- Exterior Operation: The deadbolt is thrown or retracted by a key from the outside.
- Interior Operation: The deadbolt is thrown or retracted by a thumb turn from the inside.
- Deadbolt Logic: This function is the standard for rooms where occupants need the ability to lock the door from the inside without a key, ensuring a fast exit during an emergency while maintaining a pick-resistant barrier on the exterior.

Solutions for Professional Security Upgrades
The PDQ KT Series addresses the specific vulnerabilities often found in standard commercial deadbolts:
- Saw-Resistant Protection: The deadbolt contains two concealed 1/4" case-hardened steel roll pins. These pins spin freely if an intruder attempts to saw through the bolt, effectively neutralizing the attack.
- High-Strength Anchoring: Designed with a reinforced zinc diecast rose, the KT116 provides a stable, rigid mount that resists prying and twisting, ensuring the cylinder remains protected.
- Universal Door Compatibility: Whether your facility uses a 1-7/8" or a 2-1/8" bore, the KT116 is designed to fit standard door preparations, making it an ideal choice for quick retrofits and facility-wide upgrades.
- Seamless Keying Integration: While shipped with the industry-standard Schlage C (SCC) keyway, the KT Series is available in keyways from most major manufacturers, allowing you to maintain a single-key system across your entire property.
- Compliance & Procurement: Assembled in the USA, this deadbolt meets the requirements of the Buy American Act, satisfying the strict sourcing regulations of federal, municipal, and military contracts.
