The Marks USA 5SS19EU LifeSaver is an institutional-grade, anti-ligature electrically unlocked lever mortise lockset engineered for demanding environments where safety and security are paramount.

The SS19 lever design is ligature-resistant, ADA compliant, and meets BHMA and CULUS LISTED standards, making it ideal for healthcare, correctional, and other institutional applications.
