Sargent 8226 EA 26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What door thickness and backset does the Sargent 8226 mortise lock require?
The 8226 is built for a 2-3/4 inch backset and 1-3/4 inch door thickness, which is the standard commercial door prep. If your doors are thicker or thinner than 1-3/4 inches, this is not the right lock body for that opening.
2) What does the 8226 store door function actually do on the door?
Store door function means it is a double cylinder lock with a deadbolt, keyed on both sides. The lock is catalogued as a storeroom-type function, so the outside lever stays locked and key operation controls the bolt from either face. Because it is keyed inside as well, check your local egress and fire code before putting it on a required exit door.
3) Will the Sargent 8226 latch into my existing ANSI mortise strike?
The latchbolt throws 3/4 inch on a 2-3/4 inch backset, so it lines up with a standard commercial mortise prep and strike. The deadbolt needs the deadbolt pocket in the frame as well, so a frame prepped only for a latch-only mortise lock will need the strike opened up.
4) Is the Sargent 8226 fire rated, and what grade is it?
ANSI/BHMA A156.13 Series 1000 Operational Grade 1, and UL 10C fire rated up to 3 hours with NFPA 80 compliance. It also carries a UL cycle test completed at 16 million cycles.
5) What do I have to specify when ordering the Sargent 8226?
Four choices. Cylinder: standard cylinder, less cylinder, 70 for small format interchangeable core prep less core, or 60 for large format IC prep less core. Keying: keyed different, keyed alike, or a specific key code (choose none if you picked less cylinder). Then the lever, the rose, and the finish.
6) Can I key the Sargent 8226 into my existing Sargent master key system?
Yes. The 8200 body works with all Sargent key systems, including Degree, Signature, KESO and XC. If you are running small or large format interchangeable cores across the building, order the 70 or 60 prep less core and drop your own cores in.
7) Is the Sargent 8226 an electrified lock?
No. The 8226 as catalogued is a mechanical, non-electronic lock. Sargent builds electromechanical versions of the 8200 body that run on 12 to 24VDC with EcoFlex, but if you need a wired lock you should be ordering one of those electrified 8200 functions, not the 8226.
8) What is the closest Grade 1 storeroom mortise equivalent to the Sargent 8226 from another manufacturer?
The Sargent 8226 is a Grade 1 storeroom-function mortise lock. The nearest like-for-like alternates are the Accentra 8805FL, a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock in the 8800 Series supplied with the Arcadia lever, and the Cal-Royal NM8080, a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom mortise lockset offered with an interchangeable core option. The 8226 differs in that it is a double cylinder configuration with a deadbolt in addition to the latch, so if the opening needs the separate deadbolt throw the 8226 carries it and the 8805FL and NM8080 are latch-only storeroom bodies.
9) Our access control system needs to release the lever electrically. Which mortise lock does that instead of the Sargent 8226?
The Sargent 8226 is a mechanical key-operated storeroom lock. For an opening tied to access control, the Command Access ML190 is a heavy-duty motorized mortise lock in storeroom function with field selectable fail safe or fail secure operation on 24VDC, the BEST 45HW is a heavy duty wired electromechanical mortise lock with 12V/24V operation, and the Schlage L9092EU with 03A trim is a heavy duty electric lock/unlock outside lever mortise lock, keyed outside, with request to exit and 12/24VDC operation for 1-3/4 inch doors.
10) I need a storeroom mortise lock but the door is a classroom, not a stockroom. What should I use instead of the Sargent 8226?
Storeroom function on the 8226 keeps the outside lever locked at all times with key access only, which is wrong for a classroom where staff need to lock down from inside or key the outside lever open. For classroom openings the Corbin Russwin ML2003 is a Grade 1 mortise classroom lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Cal-Royal NM8070 is a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the TownSteel FME-2000 is a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom mortise lockset with RFID credential reading for 1-3/4 inch doors.
11) Can I use a Baldwin 6310 in place of the Sargent 8226?
Not as a drop-in. The Baldwin 6310 is an entrance/storeroom mortise lock body on a 2-1/2 inch backset, while the Sargent 8226 is built on a 2-3/4 inch backset, so the door prep and cylinder centerline do not line up between them. The Baldwin 6310 covers doors 1-3/8 inch and over and is offered knob by knob, with the 6310190RRLS as the right hand reverse lever by lever version. The 8226 is a lever product across its A, B, E, F, J, L, P and W lever choices.
12) Do I have to order the Sargent 8226 handed?
No. The 8200 lock body is field reversible, so one lock covers left and right hand openings. You set handing during installation rather than specifying it on the order.
13) Which rose size should I pick to cover the old prep on the door?
Four rose sizes are offered: LN at 2 inches (51mm), O at 2-3/4 inches (67mm), E at 3-1/16 inches (78mm), and L at 3-1/2 inches (89mm). If you are replacing an older lock and want to hide existing screw holes or wear marks, the L rose gives you the most coverage.
14) The Sargent 8226 is mechanical. What is the credential-based alternative for the same kind of opening?
The 8226 is a keyed mechanical mortise lock with no electronics. If the opening needs codes or cards instead of keys, the Accentra nexTouch NTM623-NR is a Grade 1 mortise lock with a capacitive touchscreen keypad and cylinder override, the Dormakaba E-Plex E5086 is a Grade 1 pushbutton and card mortise lock in a back-to-back configuration, and the BEST 45HZ EZ Series is an electronic keypad mortise lock with key override. All three replace the key-only access of the 8226 with managed credentials.
15) If the door does not need to be keyed at all, what replaces the Sargent 8226?
The 8226 is a keyed double cylinder lock, so it is more hardware than a non-locking opening needs. For latch-only service the Schlage PM010 is a Grade 1 non-keyed passage mortise lock for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Falcon MA101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty mortise passage lock with field reversible operation and fire rating, and the Hager 3810S is a 3800 Series passage mortise lock with rose and a 2-3/4 inch backset for doors 1-3/4 to 2-1/2 inches thick. For a privacy door instead, the Hager 3840S is a privacy mortise lock on the same 2-3/4 inch backset.
16) What looks like a substitute for the Sargent 8226 but will not actually lock the door?
Several mortise-labeled products in the same size class are trim or dummy assemblies with no locking mechanism. The Schlage L0170 is a half dummy trim, non-keyed, in the Grade 1 L Series for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Emtek 3019 Brisbane, 3102 Memphis, 3104 Hamilton and 3106 Manhattan mortise entrance locksets are all dummy function. The Falcon MESC600DT is dummy escutcheon lever trim for M9900 exit devices. None of these will provide the keyed storeroom latching and deadbolt of the Sargent 8226.
17) I only need the deadbolt, not a lever and latch. What is the alternative to the Sargent 8226?
The Sargent 8226 combines a lever-operated latch with a deadbolt in one double cylinder mortise body. If the opening only needs the bolt, the Kaba Ilco 185 Series is a deadbolt-function mortise lock supplied with no handing, and the Alarm Lock DL4500DB is a Grade 1 electronic mortise deadbolt with 2,000 user codes and privacy keypad for doors 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inches thick. Those give you bolt-only hardware where the 8226 gives you bolt plus latch on one prep.
18) The 8226 is a complete lockset. What if I only need to replace the mortise lock body?
The Sargent 8226 is furnished as a complete lever mortise lockset with rose trim, levers in A, B, E, F, J, L, P and W and roses in E, L, LN and O sizes. If the existing trim stays and only the body is being swapped, the BEST 45H Series is a heavy duty mortise lock body in public entrance function with field reversible operation, the BEST 45HCA is a heavy duty mortise lockbody with intruder function, and the Baldwin 6301 is an entry/apartment mortise lock body on a 2-1/2 inch backset.
19) We need a behavioral health or ligature-resistant mortise lock, not the Sargent 8226. What fits?
The Sargent 8226 uses conventional levers in A, B, E, F, J, L, P and W styles, which are not suitable where ligature resistance is required. For those openings the TownSteel MRX-A-01 is a Grade 1 heavy duty ligature resistant arch trim mortise lockset in satin stainless steel, passage function, for 1-3/4 inch doors, the MRX-L-01 is the Grade 1 heavy duty anti-ligature lever version, and 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.
20) Is a Marks USA 21AC or 22AC an alternative to the Sargent 8226 for a double cylinder entrance?
They are both double cylinder entrance mortise locks, but they are built for different doors. The Marks USA 21AC and 22AC are ornamental iron mortise locks with round knobs rated for 1 inch door thickness, which suits narrow iron gates and storefront-style iron doors. The Sargent 8226 is a Grade 1 heavy duty commercial lever lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors on a 2-3/4 inch backset, so it will not fit a 1 inch iron stile.
21) Our doors are 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inches thick. Can we still use the Sargent 8226?
The Sargent 8226 is specified for 1-3/4 inch door thickness, so a 1-3/4 inch door in that range is fine but a 1-5/8 inch leaf is not. Mortise locks catalogued across the 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch band include the Alarm Lock DL2700CR and DL3500CR, both Grade 1 electronic classroom-function mortise locks, and the DL4500DB Grade 1 electronic mortise deadbolt. For thicker leaves, the Hager 3810E passage mortise covers 1-3/4 inch through 2-1/2 inch.
22) For an office door where the lever should be lockable from inside rather than key-only, what do I order instead of the Sargent 8226?
Storeroom function on the Sargent 8226 keeps the outside lever locked with key access only and no inside control, which frustrates office users. Office-function alternates include the Cal-Royal NM8050, a Grade 1 heavy duty office/entrance mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 3850E, a 3800 Series office mortise lock with lever and escutcheon, non-keyed, on a 2-3/4 inch backset for doors 1-3/4 to 2-1/2 inches thick.
23) What finishes does the Sargent 8226 come in for matching other doors in a building?
Sixteen finishes, from 03 bright brass and 04 satin brass through 10B oil rubbed bronze, 20D dark statuary bronze, 26 and 26D chrome, 32 and 32D stainless, plus BSP black and WSP white suede powder coat. 26D satin chrome and 32D satin stainless are the usual choices for matching existing commercial openings.
24) Is the Sargent 8226 heavy enough for a high traffic entrance?
It is a heavy duty commercial lock, Grade 1, with UL cycle testing completed at 16 million cycles. That is the level you want on a main entrance, a school corridor, or a retail back-of-house door that gets hit all day.
25) Will a Dormakaba E-Plex 2066 or Codelocks CL2255 fit the same door prep as the Sargent 8226?
Treat them as different products rather than swaps. The Dormakaba E-Plex 2066 is an electronic pushbutton keyless mortise lock built for wide stile doors, and the Codelocks CL2255 is a medium duty electronic tubular mortise latch in the CL2000 Series with a brushed steel finish. The Sargent 8226 is a heavy duty Grade 1 commercial mortise lockset with a double cylinder deadbolt, so it serves a different duty level and a different bolt arrangement than either.
26) Do I need a mortise lock at all, or would a cylindrical lock work in place of the Sargent 8226?
The Sargent 8226 requires a mortise pocket cut into the door edge. If the door is prepped for a bored cylindrical lock instead, that pocket is not there and a mortise body cannot be dropped in. A cylindrical option in the same Grade 1 class is the Schlage PC10 passage cylindrical lock with rose, non-keyed, for 1-3/4 inch doors. Where the opening genuinely calls for a keyed storeroom mortise with a deadbolt, the 8226 is the mortise-prep product.
27) We want mobile credentials on some doors and keys on others. What pairs with the Sargent 8226 on a mixed project?
The Sargent 8226 covers the key-only storeroom openings as a Grade 1 mechanical mortise lock. For the mobile-enabled doors on the same job, the Schlage LEMD-GRW is a Grade 1 ENGAGE Series wireless mortise lock with a 125 kHz proximity reader and mobile-enabled deadbolt with LED on Greenwich trim, right hand, with a 3 hour fire rating, and the Schlage LEBMB-ADD is a Grade 2 mobile-enabled mortise lock with push button and LED covering privacy, office and apartment functions on 1-3/4 inch doors with a 3 hour fire rating.
