PDQ MR260 BFSF Faculty Restroom with Deadbolt w/Indicator Function Mortise Lockset - Grade 1
The PDQ MR260 BSN (often ordered as BFSF for the Boston lever on an F-Series Sectional (round rose, wrought trim)) is a premier Grade 1 Faculty Restroom with Deadbolt w/Indicator 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. It suits faculty and single-occupancy restrooms; the inside lever is always free for immediate egress.
Constructed with a heavy-duty 12-gauge cold rolled steel mechanism and a 1-inch throw investment cast stainless steel deadbolt, the MR260 adds a occupancy indicator to the trusted MR function. The Boston (BSN) lever offers a clean, architectural aesthetic in a US32D Satin Stainless finish. Its "return-to-door" design is not only ADA compliant but also prevents clothing, bags, or straps from snagging on the hardware in busy corridors.
Function: Faculty Restroom with Deadbolt w/Indicator
The Faculty Restroom with Deadbolt w/Indicator function retracts the latchbolt by key outside or lever inside, adds a deadbolt (key outside, thumbturn inside), keeps the inside lever always free for egress, and shows a VACANT/OCCUPIED status on the outside:
- Latchbolt retracted by key outside or lever inside.
- Key outside extends/retracts deadbolt.
- Rigid outside lever.
- Thumbturn inside extends/retracts deadbolt.
- Rotating inside lever retracts deadbolt and latchbolt simultaneously.
- Inside lever is always free for immediate egress.
- Indicator, outside -- (VACANT/OCCUPIED).
Finish availability: This indicator function is not offered in 626 (US26D Satin Chrome). The base finish is 630 (US32D Satin Stainless), with premium architectural finishes (605, 606, 612, 613E, 622, 629) also available.

Engineered Solutions for Commercial Security
The PDQ MR Series addresses the specific technical and safety challenges of modern facilities:
- Occupancy Indicator: The outside indicator window reads VACANT / OCCUPIED, which reduces accidental openings on restrooms, locker rooms, and single-occupancy spaces.
- 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.
- Simplified Key Management: Provided with a Schlage C (SCC) compatible cylinder, the MR260 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.
