The Schlage ND40 is the bath and bedroom privacy function (ANSI F76) of the ND Series, Schlage heavy duty Grade 1 cylindrical lock. A push button in the inside lever makes the outside lever inoperative, and the outside lever carries a recessed emergency release slot for access when it matters. It is non-keyed - privacy without a cylinder or a key system.
It is designed so the room cannot be left locked by accident. Rotating the inside lever retracts the latch and releases the button, unlocking the outside lever, and simply closing the door also unlocks it, preventing lock-out. The inside lever is always free for immediate egress, and the latch is a springlatch retracted by either lever whenever the lock is unlocked.
For emergencies, an emergency key (part 35-270, sold separately) or a small flat screwdriver inserted in the outside lever and turned releases the button and unlocks the door. The function is also available with Schlage indicator trim where staff need to read occupancy at a glance.
The ND Series margin over the standard carries through: 3,100 in-lb of abusive lever torque (2.6x BHMA), near zero droop and wobble after 16 million cycles (16x BHMA) with no set screws or O-rings, and latch retraction under 200 lb preload (4x BHMA). Nine lever designs, nine finishes, a 626AM antimicrobial option, and a 10 year mechanical warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does ND40 mean?
- It is the Schlage function code for the bath and bedroom privacy lock, ANSI F76. A push button in the inside lever locks the outside lever, with no key or cylinder involved.
- How does someone get in during an emergency?
- The outside lever has a recessed emergency release slot. Insert the emergency key or a small flat screwdriver, turn it, and the button releases to unlock the door.
- Is the emergency key included?
- No. Order it separately as part number 35-270. A small flat screwdriver also works, so keep at least one key on the floor rather than one per door.
- Can the room get locked by accident?
- No. Closing the door unlocks the outside lever, and rotating the inside lever retracts the latch and releases the button at the same time. Both behaviors exist specifically to prevent lock-out.
- Can people always get out?
- Yes. The inside lever is always free for immediate egress, regardless of whether the button is pushed.
- Can I see whether the room is occupied?
- Yes, with Schlage indicator trim, which is offered on the ND40 in all standard lever designs and finishes. Note that locks ordered with indicator trim fit 1-3/4 inch doors, with separately sold spacer kits covering 1-3/8 to 1-11/16 inch doors.
- How is this different from the ND44 hospital privacy lock?
- The outside release. The ND40 uses a recessed emergency slot needing a key or screwdriver. The ND44 has an emergency turn in the outside lever that staff can operate by hand without a tool.
- Does the lever choice matter for code?
- It can. For the California Fire Code, levers with a return to door of 1/2 inch or less comply, which covers Rhodes, Sparta, Tubular, Omega, Longitude, and Boardwalk. Confirm the lever design against your local requirements.
- What door thicknesses and backsets does it fit?
- Standard is 1-5/8 to 2-1/8 inch doors on a 2-3/4 inch backset. Optional configurations cover 1-3/8 inch up to 6 inch doors, and 2-3/8, 3-3/4, and 5 inch backsets. Indicator trim versions have their own narrower range, noted above.
