Sargent 28-11U68 LB 26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does hospital privacy function mean on the Sargent 11U68, and how is it different from a standard privacy lock?
Hospital privacy is a non-keyed function: the occupant locks the door from inside, and staff can release it from the outside without a key, typically with a turn or emergency release rather than a cylinder. The Sargent 11U68 has no cylinder at all, so there is no keyway to maintain or key system to tie it into. A standard bed/bath privacy lock like the Hager 2540 or Arrow MK02-TA locks the same way but is built for residential-style rooms rather than patient rooms where staff need immediate outside access.
2) Is the Sargent 11U68 hospital privacy lock fire rated?
Yes, UL and cUL listed for fire-rated openings up to 3 hours, with NFPA 80 compliance, so it can go on a rated patient room or corridor door. It also carries ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Series 4000 Grade 1 certification.
3) What is the closest Grade 1 alternative to the Sargent 11U68 hospital privacy lock for an institutional patient room door?
For a patient or resident room where staff must be able to override the occupant, the Dexter C1000 asylum lock (F87 function) is the nearest Grade 1 cylindrical peer, covering doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. The Sargent 11U68 is a non-keyed hospital privacy lever in the 11 Line Series, Grade 1 heavy duty, so the difference is that the Dexter asylum version is a keyed institutional function while the 11U68 operates without a key cylinder.
4) Is a standard Grade 2 privacy lever the same as a hospital privacy lock?
No. The Arrow MK02-TA privacy knob lock and the Hager 2540 with Withnell lever are privacy-function cylindrical locks for bed and bath doors, and the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton is a Grade 3 privacy lever for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. Those lock from inside only. The Sargent 11U68 is a hospital privacy function, which adds the outside release healthcare facilities require so staff can enter an occupied room.
5) What if the opening needs keyed access or an access control tie-in instead of hospital privacy?
For keyed institutional functions, the Dexter C1000 classroom and classroom security levers are Grade 1 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with deadlocking latchbolt. For electrified control, the Corbin Russwin CL33903 is a Grade 1 fail safe cylindrical lever running 12VAC/DC for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. The Sargent 11U68 is a mechanical non-keyed hospital privacy lever with no cylinder or wiring.
6) Which Grade 1 cylindrical levers handle a 2-inch or thicker door like the Sargent 11U68 does?
The Sargent 11U68 covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/2 inch door thickness with standard 161 prep. Among Grade 1 peers, the Falcon K101 passage lever reaches 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, the Corbin Russwin CL3110 covers 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch, and the Dexter C1000 asylum covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. If the leaf is thicker than 2 inches, the 11U68 range is the one that reaches it.
7) Do I need to specify handing for the Sargent 11 Line lever lock?
No. The 11 Line is non-handed, so one lock covers left and right hand openings. That is the practical reason facilities standardize on it: one part number on the shelf serves every door in the wing regardless of swing.
8) Will the Sargent 11U68 hold up in a high-traffic hospital corridor?
It is built for it. Grade 1 heavy duty, independently verified at 7.6 million cycles (verification ID V584148), which is several times the 800,000-cycle minimum a Grade 1 cylindrical lock has to pass. T-Zone construction resists the twisting load that kills lever locks in hard-use environments, and that is achieved without through bolts, so the lever cannot be levered loose from the face of the door.
9) What lever and rose options do I pick to match the other Sargent doors in my building?
Three lever designs, B, L, and P, and four roses: B at 2-3/4", O at 2-3/4", L at 3-1/8", and E at 3-1/2". If you are adding hospital privacy doors to a building already running the 11 Line on classroom and storeroom functions, order the same lever and rose designation and the trim matches across every opening. The larger E rose is the one to use when you are covering an older, larger trim footprint on a retrofit.
10) Can I change the Sargent 11 Line lock to a different function later without replacing the whole lock?
Yes. The 11 Line is modular and field-changeable, so a lock can be converted to another function in place instead of scrapping it. For maintenance departments that means one chassis family across a facility and function changes handled in the shop rather than as a new purchase.
11) I need a Grade 1 non-keyed lever lock but not the hospital privacy function. What else is there?
For a latch that is always free, the Falcon K101 and Falcon T101 are Grade 1 heavy duty passage levers, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal-resistant passage lever with a fire rating. The Dexter C1000 passage is Grade 1 with clutching levers. For a patient room needing staff key override instead of a tool release, look at an asylum or institution function such as the Dexter C1000 Asylum (F87). None of those give you hospital privacy, which is specifically occupant-locks, staff-releases-without-a-key.
12) Does the 11U68 take Sargent key systems or a small format interchangeable core?
The 11U68 itself is a non-keyed hospital privacy lock, so there is no cylinder in it. The 11 Line as a family does accept SARGENT key systems including Degree and Signature, plus SFIC, Schlage and Medeco LFIC, which matters if you are standardizing the line across a facility and need the keyed functions on other doors to fall into your existing system.
13) If the door does not need to lock at all, what should I order instead of the Sargent 11U68?
For a corridor or closet door that only needs latching, a passage lever is the right call. In Grade 1 the peers are the Falcon K101 (heavy duty, fire rated, 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors), the Falcon T101 with pressure release technology, the Corbin Russwin CL3110 vandal resistant passage lever for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Design Hardware X75 flat lever for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Sargent 11U68 is a non-keyed hospital privacy lever, which is more lock than a passage opening needs.
14) What is a lighter-duty option than the Sargent 11U68 for a medical office door?
Grade 2 cylindrical levers cover lower-traffic office openings: the Hager 2510 passage lever and Hager 2525 entry lever both fit 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, the Falcon B101 is a medium duty non-handed passage lever, and the Falcon B511CP6D is an entry/office function. The Sargent 11U68 is Grade 1 heavy duty with hospital privacy function, so it is the choice where a room must be releasable from the corridor side.
15) What do I order for the inactive leaf next to a Sargent 11U68 opening?
Use a dummy trim rather than a functioning lock. The BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy trim is a Grade 1 non-keyed heavy duty cylindrical lever, and the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is the Grade 2 medium duty equivalent. The Accentra 455LN Augusta is another Grade 1 single dummy cylindrical lever. None of these latch; the Sargent 11U68 is a working hospital privacy lever for the active leaf.
16) Can I use a residential or decorative privacy lever in place of the Sargent 11U68 in a clinic?
Those are built for a different traffic level. The Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with 5048 rose and the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever (Grade 3, 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors) are residential-style trim, and the Cal-Royal AUS00 entrance/office lever is Grade 3. The Sargent 11U68 is a Grade 1 commercial heavy duty cylindrical lock, which is the specification level healthcare corridors are usually written to.
17) I need a non-handed lever so I do not have to stock left and right. How does the Sargent 11U68 compare?
The Sargent 11U68 is non-handed, so one part number serves both swings. Among peers, the Falcon B101 and Falcon K101 are also non-handed lever locks. By contrast the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy is ordered as a left hand or right hand item, so handing has to be confirmed before the order goes in.
18) What finishes does the Sargent 11 Line hospital privacy lever come in for a healthcare spec?
Fourteen finishes. The common institutional picks are 26D satin chromium over nickel and 15 satin nickel; 26 bright chrome is also available. Brass and bronze run 03, 04, 09, 10, 10B, 10BE, 10BL, and 20D dark statuary bronze, plus 14 bright nickel. There are also two powder coats, BSP black suede and WSP white suede, which are the ones to use where a painted finish has to blend into a door or frame color.
19) Does the Sargent 11 Line lock help with LEED credits?
Yes. It is made with 68% post-consumer recycled content, which counts toward LEED MR credit 4. A Microshield antimicrobial coating is also available as an option, which is a common ask on patient room and clinic hardware.
20) Is a keypad leverset a substitute for the Sargent 11U68 on a treatment room door?
No, they solve different problems. The Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever with double combination in passage function for 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors, the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock, and Emtek offers a Classic keypad leverset. Those control who gets in by code. The Sargent 11U68 is a hospital privacy lever that lets the occupant secure the room while staff retain outside release.
