About this item
The Accentra 8860-2FL is the ANSI F14 store door mortise lever lock from Yale's 8800 Series - a double cylinder configuration for retail and commercial front door applications. If you searched "8860", "yale 8800 mortise lock", "yale mortise lock", "yale mortise", or "part number 8860 specifications" - this is the product. Accentra is the current brand name for Yale commercial hardware under ASSA ABLOY. The 8860-2FL model number and specifications carry forward directly from the Yale catalog.
Part Number 8860 Specifications: 8860FL vs 8860-2FL
If you searched "8860" or "part number 8860 specifications" - there are two 8860 variants in the 8800 Series with different ANSI functions and different inside deadbolt operation. Understanding the distinction is the entire ordering decision.
8860FL is ANSI F21 - room door function. Latchbolt retracted by lever from either side. Deadbolt operated by key from outside and thumbturn from inside. The inside occupant controls the deadbolt from inside without a key.
8860-2FL is ANSI F14 - store door function. Latchbolt retracted by lever from either side. Deadbolt operated by key from outside and key from inside. No thumbturn inside. The "-2" suffix throughout the 8800 Series designates double cylinder - both sides of the deadbolt require a key to operate. This is the listing for 8860-2FL.
The operational difference comes down to one question: does the inside person need a key to lock or unlock the deadbolt? If yes, specify 8860-2FL. If they need a thumbturn and no key, specify 8860FL.
ANSI F14 Store Door Function: What It Does and Why It Exists
The F14 store door function solves a specific retail and commercial front door problem. When a retail store closes at the end of the day, the staff member leaving last needs to lock the deadbolt from outside as they exit. When the first staff member arrives in the morning, they need to unlock the deadbolt from outside before they can enter. Nobody with a thumbturn inside is available to operate the lock from the interior side at these moments.
With a standard room door lock (thumbturn inside), a staff member closing the store would need to stay inside to throw the thumbturn, then exit through a different door - which often doesn't exist or isn't practical. The store door function (double cylinder) eliminates this problem. The staff member walks out the front door, uses their key from outside to throw the deadbolt, and the door is locked. The next morning, the same key from outside unlocks the deadbolt for entry.
Inside, the lever still retracts the latchbolt freely - anyone inside can always exit by turning the lever. Only the deadbolt itself requires a key on the inside, not the latch. This maintains egress compliance while giving the key holder control of the deadbolt from both directions.
The -2 Suffix: What Double Cylinder Means on Any 8800 Series Model
The -2 suffix appears throughout the 8800 Series as the double cylinder designation. On any 8800 Series model, adding -2 replaces the inside thumbturn with an inside key cylinder. The same ANSI function applies but the inside deadbolt control changes from thumbturn to key. This pattern applies across the series - 8811-2FL is the classroom intruder deadbolt with double cylinder, 8822-2FL is dormitory with double cylinder, and 8860-2FL is room door with double cylinder (the store door function).
Before specifying any -2 variant, confirm with the authority having jurisdiction that double cylinder deadbolts are permitted on this opening. On required means of egress, double cylinder deadbolts that require a key to exit are restricted or prohibited by fire and life safety codes in most jurisdictions. The 8860-2FL latch retracts freely by lever inside for egress, but confirm the deadbolt control does not violate local egress code requirements for your specific opening.
Two Cylinders Required: Ordering the Complete Lock
The 8860-2FL requires two mortise cylinders - one on each side. The cylinder is sold separately. The correct specification is the Accentra 2153 or 2553, 1-1/8-inch mortise cylinder with the Yale/Sargent 2160 cam. Both inside and outside cylinders should be ordered in the same keyway and keying (KD keyed different for independent control of both sides, or KA keyed alike so one key operates both).
For retail store applications where staff have individual key accountability, KD (keyed different) is common - the inside cylinder and outside cylinder operate independently. For most commercial applications, KA (keyed alike) is more practical.
