Setting up distinct door modes for the Allegion Schlage wireless lock integration

2025-11-26Last updated

Allegion Schlage wireless locks support multiple door modes designed for different access control scenarios. To use the door modes, you must first create them as a custom field in Config Tool.

What you should know

The supported door modes are managed using the Door mode numeric custom field on the door configuration in Config Tool. This field determines how the door operates based on the selected mode. While the available door modes cover a wide range of access control requirements, toggle credential functionality is not supported.
  • 0 - Normal operation
  • 1 - Classroom: This mode is not supported
  • 2 - Office: Press button to unlock and relock
  • 3 - Privacy: Press button to deny all access from outside, press button or REX out to deactivate
  • 4 - Apartment: Press button or REX out to unlock, stays unlocked until button press or swipe to relock

Procedure

  1. In Config Tool, open the System task and click the General settings view.
  2. Click the Custom fields tab, and then click Add an item () at the bottom of the custom field list.
    The Add custom field dialog box opens.
  3. From the Entity type list, select Door.
    Add custom field dialog box in Config Tool showing the Door mode custom field.
  4. From the Data type list, select Numeric for the custom field.
  5. In the Name field, enter Door mode as the name for the custom field.
    Important:
    Ensure that the custom field name is entered exactly as shown. This ensures proper mapping between the field and the Allegion Schlage wireless locks.
