Sargent 10XG16 Classroom Security Double Cylinder Cylindrical Lock — Grade 1
The Sargent 10X Line 10XG16 is a heavy-duty Grade 1 cylindrical lock engineered for classroom security in K–12, higher education, healthcare, and institutional facilities. The double-cylinder function (ANSI F88) deadbolts the latch from the outside via key while keeping the inside lever always operative — meeting active-shooter lockdown protocols without requiring a separate deadbolt. Performance exceeds ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 requirements by up to 20×, backed by a 20-million-cycle UL verification and a 10-year limited warranty.
