Sargent 468-26D-V21 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Sargent 468 deadbolt keyed, or can it only be locked from the inside?
No key. The 468 is a thumbturn x indicator function: one-sided operation, thumbturn on the inside, with the Unlocked/Locked indicator readable from both sides of the door. Nobody unlocks it from the corridor side. That is what makes it work on restroom and exam room doors, but it also means there is no cylinder for maintenance or a master key. If you need staff to be able to key in from outside while still showing occupancy, you need a keyed cylinder x indicator function instead of this one.
2) What do I have to specify when ordering a Sargent 468 indicator deadbolt?
Four choices on the order. Backset, either 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches to match the door prep. Indicator style, V21 with Green/Red or V54 with White/Red, both reading Unlocked/Locked on both sides. Strike, either the 404 2-3/4 inch standard strike or the 408 ANSI 4-7/8 inch flat lip strike, depending on how the frame is cut. And finish, from eight: 03 bright brass, 04 satin brass, 10 satin bronze, 10B dark oxidized satin bronze oil rubbed, 10BE dark oxidized satin bronze, 26 bright chrome, 26D satin chrome, and BSP black suede powder coat. Handing is not a choice, the deadbolt is non-handed.
3) Which strike do I order with a Sargent 468 deadbolt, the 404 or the 408?
Match the strike to the frame prep you already have. The 408 is the ANSI 4-7/8 inch flat lip strike, so it drops into hollow metal frames cut for the standard 4-7/8 inch ANSI strike cutout. The 404 is the 2-3/4 inch standard strike, the smaller plate used where the jamb is mortised for a conventional deadbolt strike rather than the ANSI prep, which is typical on wood frames. Look at the existing cutout before you pick: ordering the wrong one means either patching the jamb or filing a mortise on site.
4) Can I put a Sargent 468 on a restroom door so people can see occupied or vacant from the hallway?
That is the job it is built for. The indicator shows on both faces of the door and reads Unlocked or Locked, so someone in the corridor sees the status without trying the door, and the occupant sees it from inside as well. Two color options: V21 shows Green for unlocked and Red for locked, V54 shows White for unlocked and Red for locked. The wording is the same on both, only the colors differ. Because it throws a 1 inch deadbolt rather than a latch, it holds the door shut on its own once turned.
5) Is the Sargent 468 a complete lock, or do I still need a handle on the door?
It is a deadbolt only. There is no latchbolt and no lever or knob on the 468, just the thumbturn and the indicator, so the door has nothing holding it closed when the bolt is retracted. On a restroom or office door you still need a passage latchset, or a push/pull with a closer, to keep the door in the frame. Plan the door prep for both: the deadbolt crossbore at 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, plus whatever prep the passage hardware takes.
6) Do I need to order a left hand or right hand Sargent 468 indicator deadbolt?
Neither. The 468 is non-handed, so the same part number goes on a left swing or a right swing door and reads correctly either way. For a property manager stocking spares across a building, that means one line item covers every opening instead of two, and a bolt pulled off the shelf fits whichever door failed. Confirm backset and door thickness, not handing.
7) Is a Grade 2 deadbolt strong enough for a school or clinic restroom?
The 468 carries ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 and is rated medium duty for commercial use. Grade 2 is the middle commercial tier, above residential Grade 3 and below Grade 1, and it suits privacy openings that get steady daily use, which is where an indicator deadbolt normally lives. The bolt itself is a 1 inch throw hardened steel bolt in a reinforced steel case. Where the opening is genuinely abusive, a high school corridor restroom that gets kicked, or anywhere the specification calls out Grade 1 heavy duty, this is not the deadbolt for it.
8) How far does the Sargent 468 deadbolt throw into the frame?
One inch, in hardened steel. That is a full-length commercial throw, so on a properly aligned door the bolt buries into the strike box rather than skimming the plate, and it will pick up a jamb cut for a standard deadbolt strike. Two things decide whether it lands: the strike you order, the 404 2-3/4 inch standard or the 408 ANSI 4-7/8 inch flat lip, and the gap between door and frame. A worn hinge side that has let the door drop is the usual reason a 1 inch bolt binds on the lip.
9) What finishes does the Sargent 468 indicator deadbolt come in for matching existing hardware?
Eight finishes: 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, and BSP black suede powder coat. If the building is standardized on satin chrome, which is the usual commercial default, 26D is the match. Note that 10B and 10BE are both dark oxidized satin bronze and differ in the oil rubbed treatment, so pull the code off the existing hardware rather than eyeballing the color.
10) What is the difference between the V21 and V54 indicator on a Sargent 468?
Color only. Both print Unlocked and Locked on both faces of the door, V21 in Green and Red, V54 in White and Red. Green/Red reads faster at a distance and in a corridor where people glance rather than stop, White/Red is the quieter option where the hardware sits in a finished space or where a green cue conflicts with other signage. Pick one and stay with it across a floor, mixed indicators on adjacent doors is what confuses occupants.

    Reliable Deadbolt with Handy Indicator

    Posted by Lisa on Jul 24th 2024

    The indicator feature is great for knowing whether the lock is engaged, adding an extra layer of security. However, the Grade 2 rating might not offer the same level of protection as higher grades. Overall, it's a solid and practical deadbolt.
