Sargent 10XG30 — Grade 1 Communicating Cylindrical Lock, 10X Line

The Sargent 10XG30 is a heavy-duty Grade 1 cylindrical lock in the communicating function (ANSI F80): a key from either side operates that side's lever independently, while the opposite lever remains free-turning. Designed for rooms with more than one exit — connecting offices, hotel adjoining rooms, classroom suites — where each door must be independently lockable from its own corridor. Non-handed and field-reversible.

Why the 10X Line

Sargent engineered the 10X Line to exceed ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 by a significant margin: UL-tested to 20 million cycles (Verification ID V584148), resists over 3,100 in-lb of locked lever torque (2.6× the Grade 1 requirement), and withstands 1,600 lb offset lever pull (8× requirement). The push/turn button design prevents damage from door stops — a common failure point on high-traffic doors. EcoFlex technology reduces power draw on electromechanical variants by up to 92%, supporting Wave to Open, Request to Exit, and Door Position Switch wiring without a dedicated power supply upgrade.

Sargent 10XG30 LB 26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the communicating function on the Sargent 10XG30 actually do, and how is it different from a storeroom or entry lock?
Communicating means keyed both sides, and each key only controls its own side. Turn the key on the corridor A side and the A lever locks; the lever on the B side keeps turning freely. Sargent calls it ANSI F80. That's the function you want on a door between two spaces that each have their own way out, hotel adjoining rooms, connecting offices, clinic suites off two corridors. It is not an entry or storeroom lock: a storeroom function keeps the outside lever locked at all times and there is no independent control from the other face. Important caveat on where you can use it: a door with a locked lever on both sides is not an egress door, so it belongs between rooms that each have another exit.
2) Do I have to order the Sargent 10XG30 handed for a left or right hand door?
No handing to specify. The 10XG30 is non-handed and field-reversible, so one part number covers left and right hand openings. For a property manager stocking spares across a building that means a single lock on the shelf fits any door in the fleet.
3) Can the Sargent 10XG30 be keyed into our existing Sargent master key system?
Yes. The 10XG30 takes all Sargent cylinder formats, fixed core, removable core, and interchangeable core, and works with Sargent key systems. On the order you pick the cylinder type (6 pin standard, 60 large format interchangeable core, or 70 small format interchangeable core), the keying (keyed different, keyed alike, or master keyed), and the keyway. LA is the standard keyway, and the full list runs the C, H, L and R families plus R, S and U, so an existing restricted section can be matched. A locksmith running SFIC across a campus orders the 70 prep and pins their own cores.
4) Is the Sargent 10XG30 rated for a fire door and does it meet ADA?
Fire rated, UL/cUL up to 3 hours, with an ADA compliant lever. It is ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 certified, and Sargent has it UL tested to 20 million cycles under verification ID V584148. It also carries Florida Building Code approval and windstorm certification, which is what gets it past plan review in coastal jurisdictions.
5) What do I have to specify when ordering a Sargent 10XG30 so it shows up ready to install?
Five required choices plus trim. Backset (2-3/8, 2-3/4, 3-3/4 or 5 inch), strike (808 ANSI 4-7/8, 800 T strike, or WBS wrought box), cylinder format (6 pin standard, 60 FSIC, or 70 SFIC), keying (standard, KD, KA or MK), and keyway (LA standard, or one of the C, H, L, R families plus R, S, U). Then trim: B, L or P lever in solid cast zinc, G or L rose in wrought brass or bronze, and one of fourteen finishes. Get backset and strike wrong and the lock does not go in the door you have.
6) Our doors are 2-1/4 inches thick. Will the Sargent 10XG30 work?
No. The 10XG30 tops out at 2 inch door thickness, so 2-1/4 inch is out of range and the spindle and screw lengths will not reach. If the opening genuinely is 2-1/4 inches, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical that covers 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches, though it is a passage function and does not key. Where a thick door needs a keyed communicating function, check whether the door can be measured again at the lock stile first, since many nominally thick doors bore out at 1-3/4.
7) What is the closest Grade 1 cylindrical alternative to the Sargent 10XG30 for a hotel adjoining door if I need a different brand?
There is no direct communicating-function equivalent among the other Grade 1 cylindrical levers carried alongside it, so the choice depends on which half of the communicating behavior the opening actually needs. The Sargent 10XG30 is a Grade 1 communicating cylindrical lock, non-handed, that keys each side independently. If the adjoining door only needs one keyed side and a free lever on the other, the Dexter C1000 Series Entry/Office is a Grade 1 keyed cylindrical lever rated for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. If the second leaf needs no keying at all, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage cylindrical lock, fire rated, non-handed, for 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. Pairing those two gets you one keyed side and one always-free side across the two leaves, but each door is then keyed from a single side rather than from either.
8) My door is 2-1/4 inches thick - the Sargent 10XG30 will not fit. What cylindrical lever covers it?
The Sargent 10XG30 covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, so a 2-1/4 inch leaf is outside it. The Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical lock rated to 1-3/8 inch through 2-1/4 inch and is fire rated with non-handed levers, though it is a passage function with no keying. If the thick leaf is the one that does not need to lock, the K101 handles it and the 10XG30 can stay on the thinner leaf of the pair.
9) Is a storeroom or classroom lever a substitute for the Sargent 10XG30 communicating function?
No - they solve a different problem. The Sargent 10XG30 is a communicating lock: a key from either side operates that side's lever independently while the opposite lever stays free turning, which is what a room with two exits needs. A storeroom lever such as the Cal-Royal AG05, a Grade 2 storeroom lockset with a deadlocking latchbolt for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, keeps the outside lever locked at all times with free egress from inside. A classroom lever such as the Dexter C1000 Classroom, a Grade 1 clutching keyed lever for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, locks and unlocks the outside lever by key only. Neither gives you two independently keyed sides on one door.
10) Is a Grade 1 cylindrical lock like the Sargent 10XG30 worth it over a Grade 2 lever on a high traffic door?
On a door that gets hit all day, yes, and the numbers say why. The 10X Line is UL tested to 20 million cycles, resists over 3,100 in-lb of locked lever torque (2.6 times the Grade 1 requirement) and 1,600 lb of offset lever pull (8 times the requirement). The push/turn button also avoids the door-stop damage that kills buttons on busy openings. Grade 2 leversets, such as the Hager 2525 entry or the Falcon B511CP6D entry/office, are the right call on light interior traffic where none of that abuse shows up. For a corridor, a hotel floor, or a clinic suite, spend the Grade 1.
11) I need Grade 1 cylindrical levers on a whole suite, but only the connecting door needs communicating. What do I use on the rest?
Keep the same body family and change function per opening. The 10XG30 is the communicating one, for the door between two rooms that each have their own exit. For the corridor doors on the same suite, Grade 1 cylindrical options include the Dexter C1000 in entry/office or classroom function, both rated 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, or the Corbin Russwin CL3110 passage for a door that only needs to latch, which is fire rated and covers 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors. Falcon K101 passage is another Grade 1, fire rated, and takes the widest thickness range at 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches. Match backset and strike across the suite so your spares interchange.
12) Can I get the Sargent 10XG30 in a finish that matches the 26D hardware already in our building?
26D satin chrome over nickel is on the list, and so is 26 bright chrome. Fourteen finishes in total: 03 bright brass, 04 satin brass, 09 bright bronze, 10 satin bronze, 10B oil rubbed dark oxidized satin bronze, 10BE dark oxidized satin bronze, 10BL clear coated dark oxidized satin bronze, 14 bright nickel, 15 satin nickel, 20D dark statuary bronze lacquered, 26, 26D, plus BSP black and WSP white suede powder coat. For matching an existing fleet, 26D and 10B are the two that turn up most on commercial openings.
13) Does the Sargent 10XG30 support access control wiring like request to exit or a door position switch?
The 10X Line's EcoFlex technology cuts power draw on electromechanical variants by up to 92 percent and supports Wave to Open, Request to Exit, and Door Position Switch wiring without upgrading the power supply. Sargent publishes a separate installation instruction for 10X Line electrified bored locks alongside the standard cylindrical lockset instructions and the parts manual, so an integrator has the wiring detail before the door is prepped.
14) Is there a cheaper communicating or double keyed lever lock I could use instead of the Sargent 10XG30?
Not among the comparable cylindrical levers, and it is worth knowing why before you go shopping. The alternatives in this class run passage, privacy, entry, classroom, storeroom, asylum and dummy functions, for example the Cal-Royal AG05 storeroom, the Arrow MK33 asylum, the Dexter C1000 asylum. None of those is communicating. A communicating lock is specifically keyed both faces with independent control per side, which is what makes it right for adjoining hotel rooms and connecting suites. Substituting a storeroom or entry function there gives you one locked side and one that cannot be secured from its own corridor.
15) The connecting door does not need to lock at all - what is a simpler lever than the Sargent 10XG30?
For a connecting door that only needs to latch, drop the keying entirely. The Sargent 10XG30 is a keyed double cylinder Grade 1 lock; a passage lever does the same latching without any cylinder. Staying at Grade 1, the Falcon T101 is a heavy duty cylindrical passage lever with pressure release technology, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage/closet lever, fire rated, for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. At Grade 2 the Hager 2510 passage lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, matching the same door thickness span the 10XG30 covers.
16) Can I use a dummy lever on the inactive side instead of a Sargent 10XG30?
Only if that side never latches. The Sargent 10XG30 is a cylindrical lock with a working deadlocking latch and a keyed cylinder on both sides. A dummy trim is a fixed pull with no latch and no cylinder - the BEST 9K Series 1DT is a Grade 1 heavy duty non-keyed single dummy trim, and the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is the Grade 2 medium duty version. Those suit a leaf held closed by a flush bolt or a roller catch. If the leaf has to latch and hold in a fire rated opening, a dummy is not the part.
17) If I want to stay Grade 1 heavy duty but the budget spec calls out Grade 2, what changes?
The Sargent 10XG30 is a Grade 1 heavy duty commercial lock, UL tested to 20 million cycles and fire rated up to 3 hours. Grade 2 cylindrical levers in the same cylindrical lever family include the Falcon B511CP6D, a medium duty Grade 2 entry/office lever, and the Hager 2525, a Grade 2 commercial entry lock for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Both are keyed entry functions, not communicating, so a two exit room would be keyed from one side per door rather than either side.
18) For a patient room or holding area with two exits, is an asylum function better than the Sargent 10XG30?
They differ in what the inside lever does. The Sargent 10XG30 keys each side independently and leaves the opposite lever free turning, so someone inside can always leave. An asylum function keys both levers with no free side: the Dexter C1000 Asylum is a Grade 1 asylum function for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a heavy duty Grade 2 asylum lock with a conventional cylinder in the Schlage C keyway. Choose the asylum function where controlled egress is intended, and the 10XG30 where each corridor side is keyed separately but the room side always releases.
19) I need the door to hold an electrified function instead of mechanical keying - what is comparable to the Sargent 10XG30?
The Sargent 10XG30 sits in the 10X Line, whose EcoFlex technology supports Wave to Open, Request to Exit and Door Position Switch wiring on electromechanical variants. For a straight electrified cylindrical lever from another line, the Corbin Russwin CL33903 is a Grade 1 fail safe electrified cylindrical lever running 12VAC/DC for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. Fail safe unlocks on power loss, which is a different security posture from a mechanically keyed communicating lock that stays keyed regardless of power.
20) Will a keypad or electronic lever replace the Sargent 10XG30 on a connecting suite door?
Not for the communicating behavior. The Sargent 10XG30 accepts fixed core, removable core and interchangeable core cylinders and works with Sargent key systems, so both sides sit inside an existing masterkey plan. A keypad lever runs on codes instead: the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock, and the Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with double combination in passage function for 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Use those where credential-free access is wanted on a single side; they do not give a key-operated lever on each side of the same door.
21) My openings use a Schlage C keyway - does that rule out the Sargent 10XG30?
The Sargent 10XG30 keys into Sargent systems, with LA standard plus the C, H, L and R keyway families and 6-pin standard, FSIC and SFIC cylinder options. If a facility is standardized on Schlage C, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever ships 6-pin Schlage C keyed different at a 2-3/8 inch backset and the AG03 classroom lever in the same keyway at 2-3/4 inch. For a Yale or Accentra opening being converted to Schlage cylinders, the Accentra 107S is a Schlage cylinder adapter kit for Yale hardware.
22) For a residential-style adjoining door in a boutique property, what looks like the Sargent 10XG30 but is not a commercial lock?
The Sargent 10XG30 is a commercial Grade 1 lever with cast zinc B, L and P levers on G or L wrought brass or bronze roses in 14 finishes. Decorative entry levers cover the same doorway with a residential build: the Deltana 6201 Manchester and 6431 Linstead entry levers both list 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, the same thickness range, and the Baldwin Estate 5103 is offered in passage, privacy and half dummy on the 5048 rose. Those are single-function trims, so a two-exit room would need a different part on each leaf rather than one communicating lock per door.
