Sargent 8265 EA 26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Sargent 8265 privacy mortise lock fit a 1-3/4 inch door?
That's exactly what the 8265 is built for. It's specified for 1-3/4 inch door thickness with a 2-3/4 inch backset, which is the standard commercial door and the standard commercial backset. If your openings are thicker than 1-3/4 inches, this isn't the right lock body. For comparison, the Hager 3840S privacy mortise lock covers 1-3/4 to 2 inches on the same 2-3/4 inch backset.
2) Does the Sargent 8265 need a key or a cylinder ordered with it?
No cylinder is required. The 8265 is the non-keyed privacy/bath/bedroom function, so it locks from the inside by thumbturn and there is no key control on it. That also means it should not be used on a door that needs to be secured from the corridor side. If you need a keyed opening in the same 8200 family, you want a storeroom, office, or classroom function instead.
3) Do I have to order the Sargent 8265 handed for a left or right hand door?
Handing isn't an ordering decision here. The 8265 is field reversible, so one lock covers left and right hand openings and the change is made on site with no extra parts. Useful if you're stocking a single SKU for a whole building rather than splitting the order by door swing.
4) Is the Sargent 8265 rated for a fire door?
Yes. The 8265 is UL 10C fire rated up to 3 hours and compliant with NFPA 80, which covers the 3 hour openings in stair towers and rated corridors. Bear in mind a privacy function is a bathroom or bedroom lock, so confirm the function is what the door schedule calls for on a rated opening.
5) Will the Sargent 8265 latch into the strike that's already in my frame?
The 8265 uses a 3/4 inch latchbolt throw on a 2-3/4 inch backset. If the existing prep is an ANSI mortise pocket with a standard 2-3/4 inch backset and the strike lip is set for a 3/4 inch throw, it drops in. What decides it in practice is the mortise pocket itself, not the strike: a frame prepped for a bored cylindrical lock has no pocket and cannot take this lock body at all.
6) What do I have to specify when ordering a Sargent 8265 mortise lock?
Four things decide the part: lever, rose, finish, and any indicator option. Levers run A, B, E, F, J, L, P, and W. Roses are E at 3-1/16 inches (78mm), L at 3-1/2 inches (89mm), LN at 2 inches (51mm), and O at 2-3/4 inches (67mm). Finishes cover sixteen choices from 03 bright brass through 26D satin chrome, 32D satin stainless, and the BSP black and WSP white suede powder coats. Because it's a non-keyed privacy function, there's no keying or cylinder to call out.
7) What is the closest Grade 1 privacy mortise lock to the Sargent 8265 from another manufacturer?
The Cal-Royal NM8440 is a heavy duty Grade 1 privacy mortise lockset covering the same bed/bath privacy function as the Sargent 8265, and the NM8440 adds a deadbolt to the privacy function. The Hager 3840S is the other close match, a Grade 1 privacy mortise lock on a 2-3/4 inch backset with a 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch door thickness range. The Sargent 8265 is a Grade 1 heavy duty non-keyed privacy/bath/bedroom mortise lock with rose trim.
8) The restroom door does not need to latch privately, it just needs to close. What mortise lock replaces a Sargent 8265 there?
A passage function mortise lock is the right part when nothing needs to lock. The Schlage PM010 is a Grade 1 non-keyed passage latch mortise lock for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Falcon MA101 is a Grade 1 heavy-duty mortise passage lock with field reversible operation and a fire rating. Hager offers passage in both trim styles - the 3810S with rose and the 3810E with escutcheon, both on a 2-3/4 inch backset for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/2 inch doors. None of these give the occupant a way to lock the door, which the Sargent 8265 privacy/bath/bedroom function does.
9) The door needs to be locked from the corridor side with a key, not from inside. Is the Sargent 8265 wrong for that?
Yes - the Sargent 8265 is non-keyed privacy/bath/bedroom, locked by the occupant from inside. For key control from the outside, a storeroom or classroom function mortise lock is the part: the Accentra 8805FL is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock with Arcadia lever, the Cal-Royal NM8080 is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset with an interchangeable core option, and the Corbin Russwin ML2003 is a Grade 1 mortise classroom lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors.
10) For a behavioral health or detention sleeping room, what mortise lockset should be used instead of a standard lever?
An anti-ligature trim is the differentiator there. The TownSteel MRX-L-01 is a Grade 1 heavy duty stainless steel anti-ligature lever mortise lockset in 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. The Marks USA 5PDN is a Grade 1 hospital passage mortise push/pull paddleset, ligature resistant and ADA compliant in satin stainless steel. The Sargent 8265 uses standard lever trim, offered in A, B, E, F, J, L, P and W levers.
11) What's the difference between a mortise privacy lock and a cylindrical privacy lock for a restroom door?
A mortise lock like the Sargent 8265 goes into a pocket routed into the edge of the door, so the door has to be prepped for it, and it gives you a heavier Grade 1 lock body sized for high traffic. A cylindrical lock installs through two bored holes and is far quicker to retrofit into an existing wood or hollow metal door. If your doors are already mortise prepped, stay mortise. If they're bored, a cylindrical unit such as the Schlage PC10 Grade 1 non-keyed lock is the simpler swap.
12) How many cycles is the Sargent 8265 rated for, and will it hold up in a high traffic restroom?
The 8265 completed UL's Cycle Above and Beyond test at 16 million cycles, verification ID V584148. Grade 1 alone means 1,000,000 cycles minimum under ANSI/BHMA, so 16 million is well past the bar. For a public restroom, a gym, or a dorm bath where the lock gets worked hundreds of times a day, that's the number that matters more than the grade.
13) Which rose size on the Sargent 8265 will cover the marks left by the old trim?
Rose diameter is the thing to measure before you order. The 8265 offers four: 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're replacing older trim that left a ring or paint shadow on the door face, size up to the L rose at 3-1/2 inches to cover it. If the door has a narrow face or glass close to the lock edge, LN at 2 inches is the smallest footprint.
14) Is the Sargent 8265 an electronic or access control lock?
No, the 8265 is a mechanical privacy lock with no electronics in it and nothing to wire. If you need a credentialed privacy opening, the Schlage CO-100-MS standalone electronic mortise lock is a Grade 1 privacy function with a keypad reader, and the Schlage LE Series LEBMB-ADD is a mobile enabled mortise lock covering privacy, office, and apartment functions.
15) If I standardize on Sargent 8200 mortise locks, can I use the same lock bodies on keyed doors too?
Yes, and that's the usual reason facilities pick the 8200 Series. The family runs 56 functions, mechanical through electromechanical, security, and monitoring, with functions switchable on site. So the 8265 privacy goes on the restrooms while keyed functions from the same series cover the offices and storerooms, all on the same 2-3/4 inch backset mortise prep and the same lever and rose trim. Keyed 8200 functions work with all SARGENT key systems, including Degree, Signature, KESO, and XC.
16) Can I put a Sargent 8265 on a narrow stile aluminum storefront door?
No. The 8265 is a wide backset lock at 2-3/4 inches, which needs a door edge deep enough to take the mortise pocket behind it, so it belongs on hollow metal and solid wood commercial doors. Narrow stile aluminum entries need a narrow stile mortise device instead, such as the Dormakaba E-Plex 2066 which is specified as wide stile only, so for aluminum framing check the stile width against the lock before you order anything.
17) Which privacy mortise lock has a keypad instead of a thumbturn?
The Schlage CO-100-MS-40-KP is a standalone electronic mortise lock in privacy function with a keypad reader, Grade 1 heavy duty for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Sargent 8265 is a mechanical, non-electronic lock, so the CO-100 is the choice when the restroom or sleeping room needs code-based access rather than a mechanical privacy turn.
18) Is a Schlage L0170 an alternative to the Sargent 8265 for a bathroom door?
No. The Schlage L0170 is half dummy trim, a Grade 1 heavy duty non-keyed mortise lever lock in dummy function for 1-3/4 inch doors - it has no latch and no locking action, so it is fitted to an inactive leaf or a pull-only door. The Sargent 8265 is a privacy/bath/bedroom function lock with a working latch. Emtek's 3019 Brisbane, 3102 Memphis, 3104 Hamilton and 3106 Manhattan mortise entrance locksets are dummy function as well and fall in the same non-operating category.
19) What is the difference between the Sargent 8265 and a Schlage PC10 for a closet door?
The Schlage PC10 is a Grade 1 passage cylindrical lock, non-keyed with rose, for 1-3/4 inch doors - a cylindrical lock needs a bored 161 prep, not a mortise pocket. The Sargent 8265 is a mortise lock, so the two are not interchangeable in the same door prep even though both are Grade 1 and non-keyed. The PC10 is passage function; the 8265 is privacy/bath/bedroom.
20) Which mortise lock should I use if the doors are thinner than 1-3/4 inch?
The Sargent 8265 is built for standard 1-3/4 inch commercial doors. Where the door is thinner, the Alarm Lock Trilogy DL2700CR classroom lock and DL3500CR Grade 1 classroom lock both cover a 1-5/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch door thickness range, as does the DL4500 Grade 1 electronic mortise deadbolt with privacy keypad. On ornamental iron doors, Marks USA 21AC and 22AC entrance double cylinder mortise locks are built for 1 inch material. Note the function shift - those Alarm Lock units are classroom and deadbolt functions rather than privacy.
21) I only need the mortise lock body, not the trim. What are the options?
The Sargent 8265 comes as a complete privacy lock with rose trim, in E, L, LN and O roses. If the trim is being reused and only a body is needed, BEST supplies lock bodies on their own - the 45H series heavy duty mortise lock body in public entrance function with field reversible operation, and the 45HCA heavy duty mortise lockbody with intruder function. Baldwin also sells mortise lock bodies alone on a 2-1/2 inch backset, the 6301 in entry/apartment and the 6310 in entry/storeroom.
22) What replaces a privacy mortise lock when the room needs credential-based access control?
The Sargent 8265 is a mechanical non-electronic lock. For credentialed openings, the TownSteel FME-2000 is a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom mortise lockset with RFID for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Schlage LEMD-GRW is a Grade 1 ENGAGE wireless mortise lock with a 125kHz proximity reader and a 3 hour fire rating, and the Dormakaba LX-I-M002 Saffire is an electronic RFID mortise lockset with BLE mobile access at BHMA Grade 2. The Accentra NTM623-NR nexTouch Generation 3 mortise lock uses a capacitive touchscreen keypad with cylinder override and no deadbolt.
23) Can a Codelocks CL2255 be used where a Sargent 8265 is specified?
They serve different duty levels. The Codelocks CL2255 is an electronic tubular mortise latch in a brushed steel finish, rated medium duty. The Sargent 8265 is a heavy duty Grade 1 mortise lock. On a high-traffic commercial opening carrying a heavy duty requirement, the CL2255 is not the equivalent part.
24) Which mortise lock works with an access control system that needs the lever electrically released?
The Sargent 8265 is a mechanical privacy lock and does not tie into an access control panel. For an electrified opening, the Schlage L9092EU 03A 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. The Command Access ML190 is a heavy-duty motorized mortise lock in storeroom function with field selectable EL/EU operation on 24VDC, and the BEST 45HW is a wired electromechanical mortise lock with 12V/24V operation.
25) Is a Dormakaba E-Plex 2066 a substitute for the Sargent 8265 on a storefront door?
The Dormakaba E-Plex 2066 is an electronic pushbutton keyless mortise lock specified for wide stile doors, and the PowerPlex P2066 is the self-powered counterpart in the same mortise format. Aluminum storefront stiles are a different prep from the standard 1-3/4 inch commercial door the Sargent 8265 is built for. For a glass door bottom rail, the Kaba Ilco BR series is the applicable lock instead.
26) Can I match the Sargent 8265 to the satin chrome or oil rubbed bronze hardware already on my other doors?
Sixteen finishes are offered on the 8265, so most existing schedules match. Common commercial pulls: 26D satin chromium over nickel, 32D satin stainless steel, and 10B dark oxidized satin bronze oil rubbed. Brass and bronze run 03 bright, 04 satin, 09 bright bronze, 10 satin bronze, plus 10BE, 10BL, and 20D dark statuary lacquered. Nickel is 14 bright and 15 satin, chrome also comes as 26 bright, stainless as 32 bright, and there are BSP black and WSP white suede powder coats for painted openings.
27) Does a mortise deadbolt do the same job as a privacy mortise lock?
No. The Kaba Ilco 185 series is a mortise deadbolt with no handing, and the Alarm Lock DL4500 is a Grade 1 electronic mortise deadbolt - a deadbolt throws a bolt but provides no latch and no lever operation, so a second device is needed to keep the door closed. The Sargent 8265 is a privacy/bath/bedroom latch function with lever trim, giving both the latch and the occupant-side lock in one lock body.
