You can identify a mortise lock as distinct from a standard bored deadbolt by opening the door and looking at the retracting bolt or latch. If this bolt/latch is secured into the door with a long rectangular strip of metal, it is a mortise lock. If the bolt is secured by a piece of metal that barely extends half an inch below and above, it is a bored deadbolt.
