Sargent 8212 EA 26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Sargent 8212 mortise lock fit a 1-3/4 inch door with a 2-3/4 inch backset?
Yes. The 8212 is built for 1-3/4 inch door thickness with a 2-3/4 inch backset, which is the standard commercial mortise prep. If your existing pocket is cut for a 2-3/4 inch backset mortise body, this drops into the same geometry.
2) What does the indicator on the Sargent 8212 actually show if the lock is passage function?
Passage with indicator is a non-keyed function, so the lever always retracts the latch from both sides. The indicator window reports the state of the lock as set from inside, not a key-locked condition. If you need the door to actually lock, passage is the wrong function for that opening and you want a keyed or privacy function from the 8200 Series instead.
3) Do I need to order a cylinder with a Sargent 8212 passage lock?
The 8212 is a non-keyed passage function, so no cylinder is needed for it to work. The cylinder choice exists because the order form requires one: pick Less Cylinder with keying set to None, or choose a standard cylinder, or a 70 small format interchangeable core prep or 60 large format interchangeable core prep if you want the housing prepped to take your own core later.
4) Which lever and rose do I have to specify when ordering a Sargent 8212?
Two separate choices. The lever comes in A, B, E, F, J, L, P and W designs. The rose comes in four sizes: E rose at 3-1/16 inches (78mm), L rose at 3-1/2 inches (89mm), LN rose at 2 inches (51mm), and O rose at 2-3/4 inches (67mm). If you are matching existing openings, the rose diameter is what covers old paint rings and prior trim marks, so measure what is on the door now before you pick.
5) Is the Sargent 8212 a Grade 1 lock for high traffic commercial doors?
Grade 1, heavy duty, and commercial rated. Sargent completed the UL Cycle Above and Beyond test on the 8200 mortise body at 16 million cycles. That is the class of lock you put on a school corridor, a hospital wing, or a building entry vestibule where a bored lockset would be worn out in a couple of years.
6) Is the Sargent 8212 an electrified lock that needs power run to the door?
No. The 8212 passage with indicator is a mechanical, non-electronic lock, so there is no wiring, transfer hinge, or power supply to plan for. Electromechanical versions with EcoFlex and 12 to 24VDC operation exist elsewhere in the 8200 Series, but this function is not one of them.
7) Should I use a Sargent 8200 mortise lock or a cylindrical lockset on my commercial door?
A mortise lock like the 8212 needs a rectangular pocket machined into the door edge, so it is the choice when the door is already prepped for mortise or you are specifying new heavy duty openings. A cylindrical lockset only needs a round cross bore and is faster to install, but it cannot match a Grade 1 mortise body for cycle life. If the doors on your site are already cut for mortise, swapping to cylindrical means new doors or filler plates, so stay with mortise.
8) Can I get a Sargent 8212 in black or white to match painted doors?
Yes, BSP black suede powder coat and WSP white suede powder coat are both offered. Beyond those, the finish range runs 03 bright brass, 04 satin brass, 09 bright bronze, 10 satin bronze, 10B, 10BE and 10BL dark oxidized satin bronze variants, 14 bright nickel, 15 satin nickel, 20D dark statuary bronze, 26 bright chrome, 26D satin chrome, 32 bright stainless and 32D satin stainless. For matching existing hardware across a building, 26D and 32D are the two that show up most on commercial openings.
9) Does the Sargent 8212 work with our existing Sargent master key system?
The 8200 Series is compatible with all Sargent key systems, including Degree, Signature, KESO and XC. The 8212 itself is a non-keyed passage function, so it carries no key, but it shares the 8200 body and trim with keyed functions in the series. That means you can standardize a floor on 8200 hardware and use 8212 on closets and hall doors while the keyed openings tie into your existing system.
10) Is the Sargent 8212 lever ADA compliant for a public building?
The lever trim on the 8212 satisfies ADA, which requires operable hardware that works without tight grasping, pinching, or wrist twisting. All eight trim choices on this lock are levers rather than knobs, so any of them meets that requirement on a public corridor or restroom door.
11) Can I order Sargent 8212 locks keyed alike across a group of doors?
Keying options on the order form include KD keyed different, KA keyed alike, and ordering to a specific key code. Because the 8212 is a non-keyed passage function, the correct selection for most orders is None, paired with the Less Cylinder choice. The keying selections matter when you are prepping the housing for a core you will supply.
