Sargent 28-65U65 KB 26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Sargent 65U65 need to be handed for a left or right hand door?
No handing to specify. The 65U65 is non-handed, so one part number works on either swing. For a property manager stocking spares across a building, that means a single privacy lock on the shelf covers every bathroom and bedroom door regardless of hand.
2) Can a privacy lever go on a fire rated bathroom or bedroom door?
Yes. The 6500 Series privacy lock is UL-cUL fire rated up to 3 hours and complies with NFPA 80, so it can be used on rated openings within that rating. Verify the door and frame label carries an equal or lower rating than the hardware.
3) Will the Sargent 65U65 drop into an existing 161 door prep?
It fits a modified 161 prep, which is the standard cylindrical bore pattern with the additional lock-body relief cut. If your door already has a plain 161 bore from an older cylindrical set, expect to route the modification rather than simply swap the lock in.
4) My doors are 2 inches thick. Will the Sargent 65U65 work?
No, it tops out at 1-3/4 inches. For thicker leaves, the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lever covers 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches and the Dexter C1000 asylum function covers 1-3/8 to 2 inches, though neither is a privacy lever, so match the function to the opening before ordering.
5) Which privacy lock should I use on a 2 inch thick door instead of the Sargent 65U65?
Go to the Hager 2540 privacy cylindrical lock, which lists a door thickness range of 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Sargent 65U65 is built for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, so a full 2 inch leaf is outside its range. Both are Grade 2 cylindrical locks, so the specification level does not change when you switch.
6) What is the closest Grade 2 privacy lever equivalent to a Sargent 65U65 for a commercial bath door?
The Hager 2540 with the Withnell lever is the nearest match in the set: it is a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock, the same grade and the same privacy function as the Sargent 65U65, and Hager lists a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness range against the Sargent's 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. If the opening is a standard 1-3/4 inch commercial door, either lands in range; the Hager also covers doors up to 2 inches. Lever style is the other difference to settle - the Sargent 6500 comes in B, L and P lever designs, the Hager in the Withnell design.
7) I need a Grade 1 privacy lock rather than Grade 2 - what takes the place of the Sargent 65U65?
The Arrow MK02-TA is the Grade 1 privacy option in the comparable set, a privacy/bed/bath cylindrical lock that is fire rated and lists a 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch door thickness range. The trade you are making is the handle: the MK02-TA uses a Tudor knob, while the Sargent 65U65 is a lever set, so the Arrow will not meet a lever requirement on an ADA-governed opening. Confirm the door thickness too - the Arrow starts at 1-3/4 inch, where the Sargent starts at 1-3/8 inch.
8) The bathroom door does not need to lock - what do I order instead of the Sargent 65U65?
Order a passage set. In the same Grade 2, non-handed, medium-to-standard duty class, the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 cylindrical passage lever lock with non-handed design, and the Hager 2510 is a Grade 2 passage cylindrical lever with the Withnell design covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Both latch the door without any locking, where the Sargent 65U65 is a privacy/bedroom/bath function with a lock. If the door only needs to be pulled and not latched at all, the Callan Bentley BN5051 is a Grade 2 dummy lever.
9) Can I use a Sargent 65U65 on a door that needs a key, or do I need a different lock?
You need a different lock. The Sargent 65U65 is non-keyed with a privacy/bedroom/bath function, so there is no cylinder to key. For a keyed opening in the same Grade 2 cylindrical lever class, the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical entry lock with a lever handle for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Falcon B511CP6D is a Grade 2 cylindrical lever with entry/office function. Which one depends on whether the door should stay locked at all times (storeroom) or be unlocked from the outside with a key (entry/office).
10) Which lever lock should I specify for a patient room or behavioral health door instead of a privacy lock?
Privacy function is the wrong choice there because it locks from the occupied side. Use an asylum function instead: the Dexter C1000 is a Grade 1 asylum (F87) cylindrical lock for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a Grade 2 heavy duty asylum/institution/utility lock with a conventional cylinder in the Schlage C keyway, though it is a ball knob rather than a lever. The Sargent 65U65 is a Grade 2 privacy/bedroom/bath lever, which suits staff toilets and single-occupant restrooms rather than rooms that need key control from both sides.
11) Is a 1/2 inch latchbolt throw enough to catch my existing strike?
The 65U65 throws a 1/2 inch latchbolt, which is the normal throw for a cylindrical privacy latch and works with any of the strikes offered with it. If your frame has a deep-set or badly aligned strike pocket, the 1/2 inch throw leaves little margin, so shim or reposition the strike rather than relying on the latch to reach.
12) Is the Sargent 6500 privacy lever approved for Florida hurricane code openings?
Yes. The 6500 Series is tested to ASTM E330, ASTM E1996, ASTM E1886, TAS 201, TAS 202 and TAS 203, and complies with the Florida Building Code. That combination is what a coastal spec asks for on an interior opening in a wind-borne debris zone.
13) What lever styles and finishes does the Sargent 65U65 come in?
Three lever designs, B, L and P, each available in seven finishes: 03 bright brass, 04 satin brass, 10B dark oxidized satin bronze oil rubbed, 10BE dark oxidized satin bronze, 26 bright chrome, 26D satin chrome, and BSP black suede powder coat. All 21 combinations are orderable, so if you are matching 26D across a floor you can hold the finish constant and pick the lever shape that matches the existing trim.
14) Should I use a Grade 2 privacy lever or step up to Grade 1 for a high traffic restroom?
The 65U65 is a Grade 2 standard duty lock, which suits offices, classrooms, patient rooms and multi-family units. For a public restroom taking constant use, a heavy duty Grade 1 cylindrical is the tougher choice: ZenSupply carries the Arrow MK02-TA Grade 1 privacy cylindrical lock, though that one uses a Tudor knob rather than a lever, so it will not satisfy an ADA lever requirement.
15) I need the same lever on the hall and closet doors, not just the bathrooms. What matches the Sargent 65U65?
The 65U65 is privacy function only, with a bedroom/bath push or turn and no key. For the passage doors alongside it, ZenSupply carries the Falcon B101 Grade 2 non-handed cylindrical passage lever and the Accentra 5301LN Augusta Grade 2 passage lever, both matching the Grade 2 level. Trim design will not match Sargent exactly, so keep Sargent on any opening where the look has to be identical.
16) Can I key the Sargent 65U65 into my building master key system?
No. The 65U65 is a non-keyed privacy lock, so there is no cylinder to key and it cannot join a master system. If the opening needs key control, specify a keyed function from the 6500 line instead; ZenSupply also carries keyed Grade 2 cylindrical levers such as the Hager 2580 storeroom and the Cal-Royal AG05 storeroom lever.
17) What is the residential-grade alternative to a Sargent 6500 privacy lever for apartment interior bathrooms?
The Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever set is the lighter-duty option, a Grade 3 privacy/bed/bath lever fitting 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors - the same door thickness window the Sargent 65U65 covers. The Sargent is Grade 2 commercial standard duty and carries the hurricane code and Florida Building Code testing; the Kwikset is a Grade 3 residential lever. On a multi-family turn where the unit doors see tenant traffic, that grade difference is the decision.
18) Is the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever a substitute for a Sargent 65U65?
They serve the same privacy/bed/bath function, but they are different classes of product. The Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever is supplied with the 5048 rose as a decorative residential leverset. The Sargent 65U65 is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical lock, standard duty, UL-cUL fire rated up to 3 hours with NFPA 80 compliance and hurricane code testing. On a rated corridor or bath door in a commercial building the Sargent is the one carrying the certifications; on a high-end residential interior the Baldwin is the design-led choice.
19) Does a Corbin Russwin CL3110 work in place of a Sargent 65U65?
Not for the same function. The Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant cylindrical lever lock with passage/closet function, fire rated, for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors - it has no privacy locking at all, and its thickness range starts at 1-3/4 inch where the Sargent 65U65 starts at 1-3/8 inch. The CL3110 is the answer when the door is abused and does not need to lock; the Sargent 65U65 is the answer when the door needs privacy locking on a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch leaf.
20) I am standardizing a facility on one lever family - what non-keyed heavy duty options sit alongside a Grade 2 Sargent privacy lever?
If the standard needs to move up to Grade 1 heavy duty on the non-keyed openings, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty non-handed passage cylindrical lock, fire rated, covering 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Falcon T101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage lever with pressure release technology. Both are passage function only. The Sargent 65U65 stays the privacy piece of the schedule at Grade 2 standard duty, non-handed, for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and it is UL-cUL fire rated up to 3 hours with NFPA 80 compliance and meets ADA and ICC A117.1.
21) What is the difference between a Sargent 65U65 and a Design Hardware J75 for interior commercial doors?
Function and door range. The Design Hardware J75 is a Grade 2 passage lever lockset with a flat lever, listed for 1-3/4 inch doors only - it latches the door but does not lock. The Sargent 65U65 is a Grade 2 privacy/bedroom/bath lever for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, so it also covers thinner leaves. If the same schedule needs a Grade 1 passage lever with the flat design, the Design Hardware X75 is that piece.
22) Is an Accentra 5301LN Augusta lever the same thing as a Sargent 6500 privacy lever?
No - the Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 cylindrical lever lock with passage/closet function, so it has no privacy locking. It shares the Grade 2 rating and cylindrical lever format with the Sargent 65U65, which is why they get confused, but the Sargent is privacy/bedroom/bath. On a restroom or bedroom door the passage set will not give the occupant any way to secure the door.
23) If the door needs code entry instead of a privacy button, what replaces the Sargent 65U65?
A mechanical or electronic keypad leverset. The Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with double combination in passage function, covering 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock. Both control who gets through the door by code; the Sargent 65U65 is a non-keyed privacy lever, locked only from the inside by the occupant. The Lockey also reaches thinner and thicker leaves than the Sargent's 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch range.
24) What do I order for the inactive leaf of a pair when the active leaf has a Sargent 6500 privacy lever?
A dummy trim, not a lock. The BEST 7KC Series 1DT single dummy trim is a Grade 2 non-keyed medium duty cylindrical lever trim, which matches the Grade 2 level of the Sargent 65U65; the BEST 9K Series 1DT is the Grade 1 heavy duty version of the same single dummy trim, and the Accentra 455LN Augusta is a Grade 1 heavy duty single dummy cylindrical lever. Dummy trim is surface mounted with no latch, so it has no bearing on the privacy function of the active leaf.
25) Is the Sargent 6500 privacy lever a commercial lock or a residential one?
Commercial. It is built to a Grade 2 commercial standard for offices, schools, healthcare, retail, warehouse, multi-tenant residential and government buildings. A residential-grade privacy lever like the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton is Grade 3 and belongs on single family interior doors, not a corridor of apartment bathrooms.
