Sargent SGT-F183-5170 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What size Sargent KESO F1 mortise cylinder do I need for my door?
The KESO F1-83-5170 mortise cylinder comes in four lengths: 1-1/4, 1-3/8, 1-1/2 and 1-3/4 inches. Length is driven by door thickness and by how far the lock case sits back from the face of the door, so measure from the cylinder ring seat to the cam. Too short and the cam will not reach the lock hub; too long and the cylinder stands proud of the trim and becomes a pry target. On a standard 1-3/4 inch commercial door with a normal mortise case, the 1-1/4 inch cylinder is the usual starting point and the longer lengths cover thicker doors and thicker trim stack-ups.
2) Which cam do I order with a Sargent KESO F1 mortise cylinder?
Three cam choices: Standard, 105, and 101. If you do not specify, you get the SARGENT standard offset cam, p/n 13-2563, which is what most SARGENT mortise locks take. The 105 cam, p/n 13-2522, is the shorter cam used on the inside cylinder of 78 and 8216 function locks, and the 16 and 92 function mortise locks also call for it on the inside. The 101 cam, p/n 13-2521, is the ADAMS RITE cam, so pick that one when the cylinder is going into Adams Rite style hardware rather than a SARGENT mortise case. Get the cam wrong and the key turns but the lock does not retract.
3) Can I rekey a KESO F1 mortise cylinder without taking the lock apart?
Yes. The F1-83-5170 is a removable core cylinder, so the core pulls out and a new core drops in without removing the cylinder from the door or opening up the mortise lock. For a property manager turning units or an MRO crew handling a tenant change, that means the rekey is a core swap at the door rather than a lock teardown. Note the cam is attached directly to the core on this cylinder, so the core and its cam come out together.
4) Will a KESO F1 core work in my existing Sargent key system?
Only if that system is KESO F1. The cylinder is part of the Keso F1 Key System, and the core that goes in it is determined by the KESO F1 core specification. KESO is a dimple key platform, not the same keyway family as a conventional Sargent LA or RA keyway, so a standard Sargent key will not operate it and you cannot key it into a non-KESO masterkey system. If you are extending an existing KESO F1 system across a building, this is the mortise cylinder for it; if your building is on conventional Sargent keying, you want a conventional Sargent mortise cylinder instead.
5) Do I order KESO F1 cylinders keyed alike or keyed different for a multi-unit building?
Both are order options on the F1-83-5170, along with standard keying. Keyed alike (KA) puts one key in every listed cylinder, which is what you want for a run of doors one person needs to open, a mechanical room set, or matching an entry and a back door on the same unit. Keyed different (KD) gives each cylinder its own key, which is the norm for tenant doors. Keying is a required selection on this cylinder, so it has to be settled at order time.
6) What finish should I order to match the rest of my door hardware?
Fourteen finishes are available on the KESO F1 mortise cylinder: 03 bright brass, 04 satin brass, 09 bright bronze, 10 satin bronze, 10B dark oxidized satin bronze oil rubbed, 10BE dark oxidized satin bronze, 10BL dark oxidized satin bronze clear coated, 14 bright nickel, 15 satin nickel, 20D dark statuary bronze, 32 bright stainless, 32D satin stainless, BSP black suede powder coat and WSP white suede powder coat. The two that cover most commercial work are 26D-family satin chrome look, which here is 32D satin stainless, and 10B oil rubbed bronze. One thing to know before you order: the core itself is supplied in either 4 or 26D finish regardless of the cylinder finish you pick, so the visible core face may not match the ring.
7) Is the Sargent KESO F1-83-5170 a complete cylinder or just the core?
You are ordering the mortise cylinder with removable core, in the length, finish and cam you specify. It is a replacement part for a mortise lock, not a lock in itself, so it drops into an existing mortise case that is prepped for a standard mortise cylinder thread. The core is determined by the KESO F1 core specification, and the cam ships attached to the core.
8) Do I need a different cylinder for the inside of a Sargent 78 or 8216 function lock?
Same cylinder, different cam. The inside cylinder on 78 and 8216 function locks takes the shorter 105 cam, p/n 13-2522, and the 16 and 92 function mortise locks have the same requirement on the inside. Order the outside cylinder with the standard offset cam, p/n 13-2563, and the inside one with the 105. Fitting a standard offset cam where a 105 belongs will bind or fail to throw the lock.
9) Can this Sargent cylinder go into Adams Rite hardware?
Yes, if you order it with the 101 cam. The KESO F1-83-5170 is offered with the ADAMS RITE 101 cam, p/n 13-2521, which is the cam Adams Rite style narrow stile hardware uses in place of the SARGENT offset cam. Specify the 101 on the order; the standard cam will not drive that hardware.
10) Is a brass KESO F1 cylinder going to hold up on an exterior door?
The F1-83-5170 is built from brass, bronze and stainless steel, which is why the finish range runs to stainless 32 and 32D and to the suede powder coats. Brass and bronze do not rust, and the clear-coated and powder-coated finishes add a barrier against weathering. For a coastal or heavy-weather exterior opening, the satin stainless 32D or a powder coat is the more durable choice than a clear-coated bright brass, which will show wear at the keyway first.
