PDQ MR113 PFEF Hold Back Single Cylinder Function Mortise Lockset - Grade 1
The PDQ MR113 PHL (often ordered as PFEF for the Philadelphia lever on a forged F-Series escutcheon) is a premier Grade 1 Hold Back Single Cylinder Function Mortise Lockset engineered for demanding commercial environments. While typical commercial locks are rated for one million cycles, the PDQ MR Series is tested to over 11 million cycles -- extending the hardware lifespan by 11 times the industry standard. This lockset is designed for openings that need a hold-back feature, where a key from the outside can secure the latchbolt in the retracted position for controlled hold-open.
Constructed with a heavy-duty 12-gauge cold rolled steel mechanism, the MR113 provides a formidable defense against unauthorized entry. The Philadelphia (PHL) lever offers a clean, architectural aesthetic in a US26D Satin Chrome finish. Its "return-to-door" design is not only ADA compliant but also serves as a safety solution by preventing clothing, bags, or straps from snagging on the hardware in busy corridors.
ANSI Function F06: Hold Back Single Cylinder
The Hold Back Single Cylinder function operates the latchbolt from the inside lever, admits entry by key from the outside, and lets a key from the outside hold the latchbolt retracted:
- Latchbolt operated by lever from inside.
- Key outside retracts latchbolt.
- Rigid outside lever.
- Auxiliary latch deadlocks latchbolt.
- Key outside secures latchbolt when latchbolt is retracted by inside lever.
- Not field reversible.
- Specify handing.

Engineered Solutions for Commercial Security
The PDQ MR Series addresses the specific technical and safety challenges of modern facilities:
- Vandal-Resistant Spindle: The "weakened spindle" design is a critical security solution. If the exterior lever is subjected to extreme torque or a hammer attack, the spindle breaks cleanly to prevent damage to the internal 12-gauge steel case, keeping the lock secure.
- Extreme Weather Durability: Certified for High Velocity Hurricane Zones (HVHZ) with a design load rating of +/- 70.0 PSF, this lockset provides the structural integrity necessary for coastal buildings.
- Anti-Sag Lever Technology: The MR Series utilizes independent, high-tension spring cartridges to ensure the Philadelphia lever remains perfectly level throughout its multi-million cycle life.
- Simplified Key Management: Provided with a Schlage C (SCC) compatible cylinder, the MR113 integrates easily into existing master key systems. It also supports Interchangeable Core (IC) options for rapid re-keying.
- Fire Safety Compliance: With a UL 3-hour fire rating, this lockset ensures that commercial doors remain a reliable fire and smoke barrier, protecting occupants and property.
Handing: This mortise lockset is Not Field Reversible. Specify the door hand when ordering -- LH (LHR) or RH (RHR). Refer to the diagram above to determine the hand of your door.
