- Outside lever locked by push button on inside

- ANSI F76
The PDQ SD176 MEM is a commercial-grade Grade 2 Privacy Lockset designed for interior spaces where personal privacy is required, such as restrooms, changing rooms, and private offices. Featuring the modern Memphis (MEM) lever style, this lockset provides a sleek, "returned-to-door" aesthetic that is fully ADA Compliant and prevents clothing from snagging during use.
As a Privacy Function (ANSI F76) lock, the SD176 offers a simple push-button locking mechanism on the interior. For safety and liability management, the exterior lever includes an emergency release access point, allowing staff to unlock the door from the outside using a small tool or screwdriver in the event of an emergency.
Reliable Privacy with Auto-Release Safety
The PDQ SD176 is built to ensure a seamless user experience while maintaining strict safety standards:
- Push-Button Locking: The user simply presses the button on the inside lever to secure the door.
- Three-Way Unlocking: The lock automatically disengages by rotating the inside lever, closing the door, or using the exterior emergency release.
- Non-Keyed Security: Ideal for non-secure areas where privacy is needed but keyed access is not required, reducing the cost and complexity of key management.
