Frequently Asked Questions

What is Accentra?

Accentra is a full-line commercial door hardware brand and part of ASSA ABLOY. Accentra is the commercial line formerly known as Yale Commercial; the products and part numbers carried over under the new name.

What products does Accentra make?

Accentra's product range includes mortise and cylindrical locks, exit devices, door closers, and digital access control.

What is the difference between Accentra's cylindrical and mortise locks?

Accentra cylindrical locks install through bored holes in the door face and edge, so they are quicker and cheaper to fit and suit interior and medium-duty openings. Its mortise locks seat in a pocket cut into the door edge, are more durable, and can integrate a deadbolt, making them the choice for entrances and high-traffic or high-security doors.

Where is Accentra hardware typically used?

Accentra hardware is specified for commercial, institutional, and multifamily buildings.

Is Accentra hardware commercial grade and code compliant?

Yes. Accentra manufactures to commercial standards and tests its products to the applicable ANSI/BHMA A156.2 for bored locks and A156.13 for mortise locks. For most commercial and institutional openings, specify Grade 1 where the product line offers it, and confirm any fire-rating or ADA listings the opening requires.

How do I find the right Accentra part number or function?

Accentra locks are ordered by function (passage, privacy, storeroom, classroom, entrance, and so on), backset, door thickness, lever or knob design, and finish. Identify the function the opening needs first, then match the keyway and finish. Our team can cross-reference an existing Accentra number for replacements.
