What is Vandlgard?

The Schlage Vandlgard option available on LV-Series, ND, and ALX Series are ideal for areas subject to abuse or anywhere vandalism is likely to be present, such as schools, universities, offices and commercial/public buildings. Vandlgard prevents damage to internal lock components caused by excessive force from hitting or standing on the lever to gain access.  Unlike many of our competitors the Schlage Vandlgard option does not utilize a breakaway feature requiring a user to "reset" the lever. 

The image below shows the lever rotation up and down, for the ND. and ALX series. The LV9000 lever only clutches in the down direction.

 



Vandlgard is specified by "LV" for mortise locks. The L9000 is a mortise style lock that mounts into a pocket mortised into the edge of the door.

 
Vandlgard is specified by ND9x functions for ND cylindrical locks. The ND is a cylindrical style lock that mounts through a bore in the surface of the door.
 
As a modular lock, ALX Series enables in-field function set up or exchange and a field-selectable Vandlgard feature on all locking functions.
