Schlage 03-232-ATH is a genuine OEM Athens-style exterior lever less core for compatible Schlage AD, ALX, CO, NDE and ND Series commercial locks configured for Schlage Full-Size Interchangeable Core (FSIC) cylinders.
The Schlage 03-232-ATH is the OEM Athens FSIC Lever Less Core for the Schlage ALX Series, ND Series, NDE Series, CO Series, and AD Series cylindrical locks, documented in five official Schlage Service Manuals including the NDE Series. It is the standard non-tactile Athens lever in the 03-232 Full Size Interchangeable Core (FSIC) format. The lever is supplied less core, requiring installation with a compatible Schlage FSIC cylinder. Non-handed. In stock.
Three Legacy Part Numbers Replaced by the 03-232-ATH
The 03-232-ATH replaces three legacy part numbers, as confirmed on the SecurityParts.com product page under "Original Part#." Each covered a specific installation type before the current 03-232 prefix system was introduced.
- 03-032-ATH: Original part number for cylindrical lock outside trim positions using the Athens FSIC lever.
- 09-332-ATH: Original part number for mortise lock trim applications. The 09 prefix in the legacy Schlage system identified mortise trim levers. Any specification or maintenance record listing 09-332-ATH is currently serviced with the 03-232-ATH.
- 03-332-ATH: Original part number for exit device outside trim applications using the Athens FSIC lever. Any work order referencing 03-332-ATH is currently serviced with the 03-232-ATH.
All three installation types, cylindrical lock, mortise lock, and exit device, are now served by one current part number regardless of the original installation context.
Standard vs Tactile: 03-232-ATH vs 03-232-8AT
The 03-232-ATH and the 03-232-8AT (Tactile Athens FSIC Lever Less Core) are both Athens FSIC levers that ship less core. The key differences are the handle surface, the price, the Service Manual coverage, and the availability status.
The 03-232-ATH has a smooth handle surface with no tactile texture. The 03-232-8AT has a raised tactile surface for hazardous area door identification. The 03-232-ATH is documented in five Service Manuals including the NDE Series. The 03-232-8AT is documented in four Service Manuals and does not include the NDE Series. When replacing a standard Athens FSIC lever, confirm that the original installation was specified without a tactile designation before ordering the 03-232-ATH, to avoid installing a non-tactile lever at a position that requires the tactile designation.
NDE Series Coverage and Full Compatibility
The 03-232-ATH is compatible with ALX Series, ND Series, NDE Series, CO-100, CO-200, CO-200/250, AD-200/250, AD-300, AD-400, and AD-993-DT Dummy Trim Exterior. The NDE Series inclusion reflects the original 03-332-ATH exit device application, where the Athens FSIC lever served as outside trim on NDE exit device installations. The current 03-232-ATH consolidates that application alongside cylindrical and mortise applications under one part number.
