Sargent 28LC-65G04 KB 26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Sargent 65G04 storeroom lever fit a 1-3/8 inch door, or do I need a 1-3/4 inch door?
Either works. The 6500 Series cylindrical lock covers door thickness from 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, so it goes on both older interior doors and standard commercial doors without a special order. Backset is your other fit decision: 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches, and you pick one on the order.
2) Do I have to order the Sargent 65G04 handed for a left or right hand door?
No handing to specify. The 65G04 storeroom lock is non-handed, so one part covers left and right hand openings. For a property manager stocking spares across a building that means a single shelf item instead of a pair.
3) How does a storeroom function lock actually behave day to day?
Outside lever stays locked at all times on the 65G04. Key retracts the latch for entry, and the inside lever always gives free egress. Nobody can leave it unlocked by accident, which is why it is the usual choice on mechanical rooms, closets and stock rooms. If you want staff to be able to leave the door unlocked during the day, storeroom is the wrong function.
4) Can I put the Sargent 6500 lock into an existing 161 door prep?
It fits a modified 161 prep, which is the standard cylindrical bore on commercial doors. Replacing an existing cylindrical lockset usually means no new boring, just confirming the backset in the door is 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches and ordering to match.
5) Can I get the Sargent 65G04 keyed into my existing master key system?
Yes, and this is where the ordering detail matters. Keying options are keyed different, keyed alike, master keyed, standard keying, or none if you are supplying your own cylinder. Keyway choices run from LA standard through the CA, CB, CC, CE, CF, CG, CJ, CK, CL, CR, HA, HB, HC, HE, HF, HG, HH, HJ, HK, LB, LC, LE, LF, LG, LJ, LK, LL, R, RA, RB, RC, RE, RF, RG, RJ, RK, RL, S and U keyways. Match the keyway your building already runs and the lock drops into the existing system.
6) Can I order the Sargent 6500 lock without a cylinder so I can pin it myself?
Four cylinder routes are offered on the 65G04: a standard 6-pin cylinder, LC less cylinder, the 60 large format interchangeable core (FSIC) with a plastic disposable construction core, or the 70 small format interchangeable core (SFIC) with a disposable construction core. Locksmiths and integrators supplying their own cores take LC. The 60 and 70 construction cores let a contractor run the job on a throwaway key and swap in permanent cores at turnover.
7) Is the Sargent 65G04 fire rated for a labelled door?
UL-cUL fire rated up to 3 hours, and it exceeds ANSI/BHMA Grade 2. It also passes hurricane code testing to Florida Building Code requirements, which matters on coastal institutional work.
8) My door is 2 inches thick. Will the Sargent 6500 work on it?
No. The 6500 tops out at 1-3/4 inch doors. For a 2 inch leaf, look at the Hager 2510 or 2525 Grade 2 levers, which cover 1-3/8 to 2 inches, or the Dexter C1000 Series, rated 1-3/8 to 2 inches. The Falcon K101 goes further still at 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches.
9) What is the closest Grade 2 storeroom lever lock to the Sargent 65G04 from another brand?
The Cal-Royal AG05 and the Hager 2580 are both Grade 2 storeroom-function cylindrical lever locks, the same grade and function as the Sargent 65G04. The Cal-Royal AG05 is listed for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, matching the 65G04 door range, and uses a deadlocking latchbolt. The Hager 2580 covers a wider 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door range with a Withnell lever. The 65G04 is the one to stay with if the building is already on Sargent keying, since it takes Sargent Degree, Signature and XC key systems and offers 60 large format and 70 small format interchangeable core options.
10) The door is 2 inches thick - what storeroom lever works there instead of the Sargent 65G04?
The 65G04 is built for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For a 2 inch door in the same storeroom role, the Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom cylindrical lock rated 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch with a Withnell lever. If the opening also wants Grade 1, the Corbin Russwin CL3110 covers 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors and is fire rated, though it is passage/closet function and does not key.
11) Is a Grade 2 lock enough for a high traffic corridor, or should I be buying Grade 1?
The 6500 Series is standard duty, Grade 2, and it suits offices, closets, storerooms and moderate traffic openings. On a stairwell, a school corridor or anywhere getting constant cycles, step up to Grade 1 heavy duty. Options ZenSupply stocks include the Falcon K Series K101 and the Corbin Russwin CL3100 Series CL3110, both Grade 1 and fire rated, though those are passage function and you would need the keyed version of the family for a storeroom opening.
12) Does the Sargent 6500 work with the Degree or XC keying we already run in the building?
It takes most Sargent key systems, Degree, Signature and XC included, so an existing Sargent-keyed facility can add these locks without a separate key set. Give the keyway your system uses when ordering and specify master keying if the openings need to sit under an existing master.
13) The closet does not need a key - what is a simpler alternative to the Sargent 65G04?
Storeroom function on the 65G04 means the lever is always locked outside and takes a key; if the closet only needs to latch, a passage lock is the simpler part. The Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 medium duty non-handed cylindrical passage lever, the Hager 2510 is a Grade 2 passage lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 passage/closet cylindrical lever. None of them accept a cylinder, so a closet that must stay secured still wants the keyed storeroom lock.
14) Is there a Grade 1 heavy duty version of a lock like the Sargent 65G04 for a high traffic opening?
The 65G04 is a Grade 2 standard duty cylindrical lever. Where the traffic calls for Grade 1 heavy duty, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical lever rated for 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors and fire rated, and the Falcon T101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical lever as well. Both are passage function, so they do not key - for a keyed heavy duty opening the Dexter C1000 series runs Grade 1 keyed functions including classroom and entry/office on 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
15) What is the difference between a storeroom lock like the Sargent 65G04 and an entrance or office function lever?
The 65G04 is storeroom function: outside lever stays locked at all times and a key retracts the latch, so nobody can leave the door unsecured. Entrance and office function lets a user set the outside lever unlocked and leave it that way. Comparable entrance-function levers include the Hager 2525, a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical entry lock for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Falcon B511CP6D, a Grade 2 medium duty entry/office cylindrical lever. Specify by which behavior the room needs, not by trim.
16) Will a dummy lever work in place of the Sargent 65G04 on a closet door?
Only if the door does not need to latch. A dummy trim is a fixed pull with no latch and no cylinder - the BEST 7KC single dummy trim is a Grade 2 medium duty non-keyed lever, the BEST 9K 1DT is the Grade 1 heavy duty non-keyed equivalent, and the Accentra 455LN Augusta is a Grade 1 single dummy cylindrical lever. The 65G04 is a keyed storeroom lock with a working latchbolt, so any opening that has to stay closed and secured needs the lock, not the dummy.
17) Can a Grade 3 residential lever be used where a Sargent 65G04 is specified?
They are built to different standards. The 65G04 is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical lever. Grade 3 levers such as the Cal-Royal AUS00 entrance/office lever for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Callan Artino entrance leverset, and the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors sit a grade below and none of them carry storeroom function. On a spec that calls out ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 storeroom, a Grade 3 lever will not answer the submittal.
18) The room needs code entry rather than a key - what replaces a Sargent 65G04 storeroom lever?
The 65G04 works off a Sargent cylinder in one of its listed keyways. Where the facility wants a code 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 for doors 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch. Note the Lockey 1150 is passage function, so it does not hold the lever locked the way storeroom function does.
19) Does an access control job need an electrified lever instead of a Sargent 65G04?
If the opening is to be released by a card reader or a fire alarm interface, yes - the 65G04 is a mechanical cylindrical lock. 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. The mechanical 65G04 remains the right part where credentials stay on keys, since it takes Sargent Degree, Signature and XC key systems and offers less-cylinder and interchangeable core builds for a facility that cores its own hardware.
20) What lever suits a detention or utility room where a Sargent 65G04 storeroom lock is not the right function?
Asylum or institution function keys from both sides and has no free-turning lever, which storeroom function does not do. The Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a Grade 2 heavy duty asylum lock with a ball knob and conventional cylinder in Schlage C keyway, and the Dexter C1000 asylum (F87) is a Grade 1 version for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The 65G04 stays the choice for a storeroom or closet where free egress from inside is required.
21) What lever styles and finishes can I get on the Sargent 65G04?
Three lever designs, B, L and P, and seven finishes: 03 bright brass clear coated, 04 satin brass 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 you are matching existing openings in a building, 26D is the common commercial finish and BSP is the option when the spec calls for black.
22) Is a privacy lever an alternative to the Sargent 65G04 for a restroom?
They serve different doors. Privacy function locks with a thumbturn from inside and has an emergency release outside - the Hager 2540 is a Grade 2 lock for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors and the Arrow MK02-TA is a Grade 1 privacy lock with a Tudor knob, fire rated, for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. The 65G04 is keyed storeroom function with a single cylinder, which secures a room against everyone without a key rather than giving an occupant a temporary lock.
23) Can a knob lockset be substituted where a Sargent 65G04 lever is specified?
Not where ADA lever operation is required. The 65G04 uses a lever handle in B, L and P designs. Knob-operated cylindrical locks in the same family of openings include the Arrow HK11-BB turn-pushbutton entrance lock with ball knob for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors and the Arrow MK02-TA with a Tudor knob. Knob trim changes the operation, the function and the outside trim prep, so it is a different specification rather than a drop-in.
24) What is a decorative brass lever alternative for a commercial storeroom door needing a Sargent 65G04?
Decorative levers are built for a different door. The Deltana 6201 Manchester, 6411 Morant and 6431 Linstead are entry-function levers for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Emtek Classic and Arts and Crafts leversets are dummy pairs with no latch at all. For a commercial storeroom the 65G04 is the keyed Grade 2 storeroom lock, and it carries finish options including 03 bright brass and 04 satin brass if the door has to match a brass scheme.
