Sargent 4143 26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can a Sargent 4143 cabinet lock be master keyed into our existing Sargent system?
Yes. The 4143 uses a 6-pin brass cylinder that can be master keyed with most other Sargent locks, which is what lets a facility put file cabinets, casework and door hardware under one master. Two 6-pin keys ship with the lock. When you order, the keying choice is required: keyed different, keyed alike, or supply your own key code to have it cut into an existing system.
2) Should I use a keyed cabinet lock like the Sargent 4143 or go keyless on our storage cabinets?
Go keyed when the cabinets need to fall under a building master key and be opened by staff who already carry a Sargent key. Go keyless when you'd rather manage codes than keys: the Lockey C170 is a mechanical surface mount combination cam lock, and the SDC 295 Series is a battery powered programmable cabinet lock with a 30-user keypad. If the cabinet needs to release from an access control system rather than a hand, that's an electric lock instead, such as the SDC 290 Series electric bolt or the DynaLock 1410 Series dual voltage cabinet lock.
3) We key our building with small format interchangeable core. Is the Sargent 4143 the right cabinet lock for us?
No. The 4143 is a fixed 6-pin brass cylinder lock keyed into a Sargent system, not an interchangeable core housing, so a maintenance tech can't swap the core with a control key. For an SFIC facility, the BEST 3L Series is a dead-locking cabinet lock with a 7-pin housing and vertical rim mounting, and the BEST 5L Series is a 7-pin SFIC core housing coin box lock. Both take the cores you're already stocking.
4) Can the Sargent 4143 lock a wood cabinet door?
The 4143 is specified for metal doors up to 7/8 inch thick, so a metal cabinet, locker or steel file drawer is what it's built around. For thicker material, the Lockey C170 cam lock covers a door thickness range of 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch, which reaches the heavier casework a 7/8 inch maximum won't.
5) What is the difference between the Sargent 4143 cabinet lock and the BEST 3L cabinet lock?
Both are mechanical cam-style cabinet locks for cabinets and drawers. The Sargent 4143 uses a 6-pin brass cylinder that can be master keyed with most other Sargent locks, and its cam is field reversible between the 4142 horizontal and 4143 vertical locked positions. The BEST 3L Series is a dead-locking cabinet lock with a 7-pin housing and vertical rim mounting. If the facility is keyed on a Sargent system, the 4143 pins into it; if the facility runs BEST 7-pin cores, the 3L housing matches that platform.
6) Is there a cabinet lock that takes an interchangeable core instead of a fixed keyed cylinder?
The Sargent 4143 is built around a 6-pin brass cylinder with two keys supplied, keyed different, keyed alike, or to a supplied key code. If you need a small format interchangeable core so cores can be pulled and rekeyed without removing the lock, the BEST 5L Series coin box cabinet lock uses a 7-pin SFIC core housing.
7) What should I use instead of the Sargent 4143 if I need keyless entry on a cabinet?
The Sargent 4143 is key operated with a 6-pin brass cylinder and two keys. For a cabinet that should open without a key, the Lockey C170 is a mechanical surface mount keyless digital combination cam lock with a low profile design, fitting doors 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch thick. The SDC 295 Series is a battery powered programmable cabinet lock with a 30-user keypad if you need individual user codes rather than one shared combination.
8) I need the cabinet lock to release from an access control system, not a key. What are my options?
The Sargent 4143 is a mechanical cam lock operated by a 6-pin brass key cylinder, with no electrical connection. For a cabinet that must unlock from a panel or credential reader, the DynaLock 1410 Series is a dual voltage cabinet lock rated heavy duty, the SDC 290 Series is a micro cabinet electric bolt lock with dual voltage operation, and the HES KS200 server cabinet lock uses Wiegand integrated wired access control.
9) What do the Sargent 21 and 22 construction key options mean on a cabinet lock?
They're two ways of handling temporary keying while a job is still open. Option 21 is the Sargent Construction Key System (Lost Key) and option 22 is the Sargent Construction Key System (Split Key). Both let trades operate the cabinet locks during construction and then void the construction key when the permanent key is used. If the job doesn't need that, order the standard cylinder instead. All three cylinder choices are offered across the same finish range.
10) What finishes does the Sargent 4143 cabinet lock come in?
Eleven: 03 bright brass clear coated, 04 satin brass clear coated, 10 satin bronze clear coated, 10B dark oxidized satin bronze oil rubbed, 10BE dark oxidized satin bronze, 26 bright chromium plated over nickel, 26D satin chromium plated over nickel, 32 bright stainless steel, 32D satin stainless steel, BSP black suede powder coat and WSP white suede powder coat. Every finish is available with the standard cylinder or with either construction key system, so matching casework hardware across a floor doesn't force a keying compromise.
11) Is the Sargent 4143 durable enough for a public building, or is it just office furniture hardware?
It's a commercial-rated lock. Body materials are solid brass and stainless steel with a bronze cam held on by two screws, and it's catalogued for commercial use rather than residential. That construction is what puts it on healthcare equipment storage, school lockers, government file cabinets and retail display cases rather than light home casework.
12) What do I have to specify when ordering a Sargent 4143 cabinet lock?
Three things. Cylinder option: standard cylinder, 21 construction key (lost key) or 22 construction key (split key). Finish, from eleven choices including 26D satin chrome, 32D satin stainless and BSP black suede powder coat. And keying, which is required at order: keyed different, keyed alike, or a key code you supply to match an existing system. Cam position is not an order line, the cam reverses in the field between the 4143 vertical and 4142 horizontal positions.
13) Do I need to buy a strike with the Sargent 4143 cabinet lock?
Yes, budget for one. The strike is by others on the 4143, so the lock arrives with its cylinder, bronze cam and two 6-pin keys, and the catch side of the cabinet is your responsibility. On a lot of steel casework the existing formed lip in the frame does the job, but on a retrofit into a cabinet that never had a lock, sort the strike before install day.
14) Which cabinet lock works on a server rack or data cabinet, the Sargent 4143 or an HES?
The Sargent 4143 is sized for metal cabinet and drawer doors up to 7/8 inch thick and turns a bronze cam held by 2 screws, which suits office furniture, file cabinets, and display cases. HES builds locks specifically for server enclosures: the KS-M is a mechanical server cabinet lock and the KS200 is a server cabinet lock with Wiegand integrated wired access control, both Grade 1. For a rack that needs an audit trail through the access system, the KS200 is the one wired back to a panel.
15) Is a keypad cabinet lock like the HES KP20 a drop-in replacement for a Sargent 4143?
No. The Sargent 4143 is a cam lock: a 6-pin brass cylinder through the door driving a bronze cam secured with 2 screws, with the strike provided by others. The HES KP20 is a stand-alone Grade 1 keypad cabinet lock and the SDC 290 Series is a micro electric bolt lock, both of which throw or hold a bolt rather than rotate a cam, so the cabinet prep and the strike are different. Swapping platforms means re-prepping the door, not reusing the existing cam hole.
16) Which cabinet lock can be added without running wire to the cabinet?
The Sargent 4143 needs no power at all - it is a key operated cam lock in solid brass and stainless steel for metal doors up to 7/8 inch thick. Among the electronic options, the SDC 295 Series is battery powered with a 30-user keypad, so it also avoids a wire run, while the DynaLock 1410 Series and the SDC 290 Series are dual voltage locks that require power to the cabinet.
17) I am standardizing file cabinet locks across a building on one key system. Sargent 4143 or BEST?
The Sargent 4143 uses a 6-pin brass cylinder that can be master keyed with most other Sargent locks, so a facility already on a Sargent master key system picks up cabinets under the same hierarchy, ordered keyed alike, keyed different, or to a key code. BEST's cabinet locks run on 7-pin housings - the 3L Series dead-locking lock and the 5L Series with a 7-pin SFIC core housing - which is the match if the building's key system is BEST. Both approaches let one key package cover the fleet; the deciding factor is which cylinder platform the rest of the building already uses.
18) What is the closest equivalent to a Sargent 4143 if I need a horizontal cam position instead of vertical?
You do not need a different lock. The Sargent 4143 has a field reversible cam that converts between the 4142 horizontal and 4143 vertical locked positions without additional hardware, so the same lock covers either orientation. Among other brands, the BEST 3L Series is specified for vertical rim mounting.
19) Is there a Sargent cabinet lock that mounts vertically like the BEST 3L?
The Sargent 4143 is the vertical-in-locked-position version of the 4000 Series cabinet lock, and the BEST 3L Series is likewise a vertical rim mounting cabinet lock. The practical split is keying: the Sargent takes a 6-pin brass cylinder master keyed with other Sargent locks, while the BEST 3L uses a 7-pin housing. Match whichever brand your building is already keyed to rather than the mounting orientation alone.
