Sargent 8206 EA 26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Sargent 8206 storeroom function actually do at the door?
Storeroom/service function: the outside lever is always locked and the key retracts the latch to let you in. The inside lever always retracts the latch for free egress, and there is no way to leave the outside lever unlocked. That is why it suits stock rooms, mechanical spaces, IT closets and any door that must never be left on the latch. If you need a door that can be left unlocked during business hours, storeroom is the wrong function.
2) Is the Sargent 8206 handed, or can one lock cover both left and right hand doors?
The 8206 mortise lock body is field reversible for handing, so one lock covers left and right hand openings without ordering a hand. You set the hand during installation rather than specifying it on the order.
3) Do I have to buy the cylinder with the Sargent 8206, or can I use my building's existing cores?
Four cylinder choices are offered on the 8206: a standard cylinder supplied with the lock, less cylinder if you are supplying your own, 70 prep for small format interchangeable cores less core, or 60 prep for large format interchangeable cores less core. If your facility already keys to SFIC or an LFIC core, take the 70 or 60 prep and drop your own cores in. The lock works with Sargent key systems including Degree, Signature, KESO and XC.
4) Can I get a batch of Sargent 8206 locks keyed alike for one building?
Yes. Keying is a required selection: KD keyed different, KA keyed alike, or a specific key code you enter. For a run of storerooms that one maintenance key should open, choose KA. If you are ordering less cylinder, select the None keying option and key the cores yourself.
5) Is the Sargent 8206 approved for a fire rated door?
Yes. The 8206 is UL 10C fire rated up to 3 hours and complies with NFPA 80, which covers use on labeled openings including stairwell and corridor doors. Storeroom function is code friendly on those doors because the inside lever always allows egress.
6) Which rose size should I pick to match the trim already on my other Sargent doors?
Four rose options cover the 8200 trim range: LN rose at 2 inches (51mm), O rose at 2-3/4 inches (67mm), E rose at 3-1/16 inches (78mm), and L rose at 3-1/2 inches (89mm). Measure the rose on an existing door and match the diameter so the new lock covers the same footprint and does not leave a ring of unfinished door face. Lever styles A, B, E, F, J, L, P and W are available, so match the lever letter too.
7) Is the Sargent 8206 a mechanical lock or does it need power?
The 8206 is the mechanical storeroom lock, non-electronic, so nothing to wire and no power supply required. The 8200 Series does include electromechanical versions running 12 to 24VDC with EcoFlex power reduction, but if you need an access controlled opening you want one of those electrified functions, not the 8206. For a wired electrified mortise lock we also carry the BEST 45HW Series with 12V/24V operation.
8) I need a mortise lock for a classroom instead of a storeroom door - what should I order?
The Sargent 8206 is a storeroom/service function lock, so the outside lever is always locked and requires a key. For a classroom opening, the Corbin Russwin ML2003 is a Grade 1 mortise classroom lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal NM8070 is a Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch, also for 1-3/4 inch doors.
9) What should I use if I want keypad or credential access rather than a key on this opening?
The Sargent 8206 is a mechanical, non-electronic lock operated by key. For credential-based access on a mortise prep, the Accentra NTM623-NR nexTouch Generation 3 mortise lock uses a capacitive touchscreen keypad with cylinder override, the BEST 45HZ EZ Series is an electronic keypad mortise lock with key override, and the TownSteel FME-2000 is a Grade 1 mortise lockset with RFID technology for 1-3/4 inch doors.
10) Which mortise lock do I order if the opening needs to be electrically locked or unlocked from an access control panel?
The Sargent 8206 is a mechanical storeroom lock, not an electrified one. For an electrified mortise prep, the Command Access ML190 is a heavy-duty motorized storeroom-function mortise lock with field selectable EL/EU operation at 24VDC, the BEST 45HW is a wired electromechanical mortise lock with 12V/24V operation, and the Schlage L9092EU with 03A trim is an electric lock/unlock outside lever mortise lock, keyed outside, with request to exit at 12/24VDC.
11) Will the Sargent 8206 hold up on a high traffic door like a school or hospital corridor?
It is built for that. Heavy duty, ANSI/BHMA Grade 1, and Sargent completed a UL Cycle Above and Beyond test at 16 million cycles (Verification ID V584148). Grade 1 is the highest commercial rating and the level normally specified for institutional openings.
12) I need a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock but not necessarily Sargent. What else is comparable?
Two direct storeroom-function alternatives we carry: the Accentra 8805FL, a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock in the 8800 Series with Arcadia lever, and the Cal-Royal NM8080, a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom mortise lockset with an interchangeable core option, listed for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Accentra 8805FL is the closer match if you are standardizing on a lever trim look; the NM8080 is the one to look at when the spec is simply Grade 1 storeroom with IC core capability.
13) Storeroom function is wrong for my classroom doors. What mortise lock should I use instead?
Storeroom keeps the outside lever locked at all times, which is not what a classroom needs. For classroom function in a Grade 1 mortise lock, look at the Corbin Russwin ML2003 (ML2000 Series, 1-3/4 inch door) or the Cal-Royal NM8070 heavy duty Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset. If the requirement is intruder or lockdown from inside, the BEST 45HCA lockbody with intruder function and the TownSteel FME-4000 electronic intruder classroom mortise lock cover that.
14) Should I use a mortise lock like the Sargent 8206 or a cylindrical lockset on my storeroom doors?
Mortise means a rectangular pocket machined into the door edge, so it suits a new door or a door already prepped for mortise. It is the heavier construction and the usual specification for institutional storerooms. A cylindrical lock like the Schlage PC Series installs into a round bore and is quicker to fit or retrofit into a bored door. If your existing doors have a mortise pocket, stay mortise, because converting a mortise prep to a bored prep is not practical in the field.
15) How do I check the door prep before ordering the Sargent 8206?
Use the Sargent 7800/8200 mortise lock installation template, which covers the 8200 lock body with all sectional rose trims and escutcheon trims. Lay it on the door edge and face to confirm the mortise pocket, cross bore locations and trim hole pattern against what is already machined. The full 7800/8200 mortise lock catalog is also published for the complete function and trim listing.
16) Is there a non-keyed mortise lock alternative if the door does not need to lock?
Yes. The Sargent 8206 is a keyed single cylinder lock, so for a passage opening look instead at the Schlage PM010, a Grade 1 non-keyed passage latch mortise lock for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Falcon MA101, a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise passage lock with field reversible operation, or the Hager 3810S, a Grade 1 passage mortise lock with rose and 2-3/4 inch backset.
17) Can I use an Emtek 3102 or Schlage L0170 in place of the Sargent 8206?
No. The Emtek 3102 Memphis and Schlage L0170 are dummy function trim - they have no latching or locking mechanism and mount on inactive leaves. The Sargent 8206 is a keyed single cylinder storeroom lock. If you need a working lock, stay with a keyed storeroom product such as the Cal-Royal NM8080 Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset.
18) Is there a mortise lock alternative for a behavioral health or ligature-resistant opening?
The Sargent 8206 uses conventional lever trim in A, B, E, F, J, L, P and W lever styles. Where anti-ligature trim is required, the TownSteel MRX-L-01 is a Grade 1 heavy duty anti-ligature lever mortise lockset in stainless steel with passage function for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the MRX-A-01 is the same passage function with satin stainless ligature resistant arch trim.
19) I need a privacy mortise lock for a restroom, not a storeroom lock - what are the options?
The Sargent 8206 is a keyed storeroom/service lock and is not suited to a privacy opening. For bed, bath or restroom doors, the Cal-Royal NM8440 is a Grade 1 privacy mortise lockset with deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 3840S is a Grade 1 privacy mortise lock with 2-3/4 inch backset for doors 1-3/4 to 2 inches thick.
20) What mortise product should I use on a narrow stile aluminum or glass door instead of the Sargent 8206?
The Sargent 8206 is a heavy duty commercial mortise lock with rose-mounted lever trim and is not a narrow stile product. For aluminum storefront openings, the Alarm Lock DL1300NW Trilogy Networx wireless electronic mortise lock with keypad is built for Adams Rite deadlatches, and the Kaba Ilco BR Series is a glass door bottom rail lock.
21) Is there a simpler office or entrance function mortise lock instead of a full storeroom lock?
Yes. The Sargent 8206 keeps the outside lever locked at all times with key access only. If you want the opening to be left unlocked during business hours, the Cal-Royal NM8050 is a Grade 1 office/entrance mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 3850E is a Grade 1 office mortise lock with lever and escutcheon, non-keyed, with a 2-3/4 inch backset for doors 1-3/4 to 2-1/2 inches.
22) How does the Sargent 8206 compare with the BEST 45H series mortise lock bodies?
Both are heavy duty mortise locks, but the function differs. The Sargent 8206 is storeroom/service with a keyed single cylinder. The BEST 45HCAC is a heavy duty mortise lock body with public entrance function and field reversible operation, and the 45HCAINL is a heavy duty mortise lockbody with intruder function for rooms that need to be secured from the inside.
23) What finishes does the Sargent 8206 come in for matching existing hardware?
Sixteen finishes: 03 bright brass, 04 satin brass, 09 bright bronze, 10 satin bronze, 10B oil rubbed dark oxidized satin bronze, 10BE, 10BL, 14 bright nickel, 15 satin nickel, 20D dark statuary bronze, 26 bright chrome, 26D satin chrome, 32 bright stainless, 32D satin stainless, plus BSP black and WSP white suede powder coat. 26D and 32D are the usual commercial choices for corridor and storeroom work.
24) Is the Sargent 8206 a lever lock or can I get knobs?
Lever trim. The 8206 is configured with lever handles, and eight lever styles are offered (A, B, E, F, J, L, P and W). If a project genuinely calls for knobs on a mortise lock body, that is a different trim family, not an option on the 8206.
25) For a residential-style entrance door, is the Sargent 8206 the right mortise lock or is there a better fit?
The Sargent 8206 is specified as commercial hardware with heavy duty construction. For a residential entrance or apartment door, the Baldwin 6301LS is an entry/apartment lever by lever mortise lock body with 2-1/2 inch backset for doors 1-3/4 inches and over, and the Baldwin 6310190RRLS is an entry/storeroom lever by lever mortise lock with 2-1/2 inch backset, right hand reverse, for doors 1-3/8 inches and over.
26) Do any comparable mortise locks offer a push/pull or deadbolt-only alternative to a lever storeroom lock?
The Sargent 8206 uses lever trim. If lever operation is not wanted, the Marks USA 5PDN is a Grade 1 hospital passage mortise push/pull paddleset that is ligature resistant and ADA compliant in satin stainless steel, and the Kaba Ilco 185 Series is a no-handing mortise deadbolt for openings that need locking only with no latch operation.
