TownSteel MKS-08-R-S Entrance Lever Trim with Sentinel Lever and Schlage C Keyway Cylinder

The TownSteel MKS-08-R-S Entrance Lever Trim is part of the m-Kestros Mechanical Trim family, engineered for retrofit or new installation on exit devices. This KES908 Entrance function trim is lever/knob operated, with a key that locks or unlocks the trim, and is designed to integrate seamlessly with TownSteel's own exit devices while remaining fully compatible with Von Duprin 22 and 99 Series exit devices. Featuring a fixed 2-3/4" backset, a Sentinel lever, and a Schlage 6-pin "C" keyway (SC) mortise cylinder prep, this trim is built for Device Fit Type R applications including rim, SVR, LBR, and 3-point exit devices. The escutcheon-style trim is UL 10C Compliant and finished in 626 Satin Chrome for a clean, architectural appearance suited to standardizing hardware across multiple openings.

  • KES908 Entrance Function: Lever/knob operated trim where the key locks or unlocks the trim, ideal for standard entrance applications.

TownSteel MKS-08-R-S-626-SC – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will TownSteel m-Kestros trim fit a Von Duprin exit device?
Yes. The m-Kestros mechanical trim mounts to TownSteel's own exit devices and to Von Duprin 22 and 99 Series devices. That is what makes it useful for standardizing trim appearance across a building where some openings already carry Von Duprin hardware and others are getting TownSteel devices.
2) What does the R in the MKS-08-R trim part number mean, and which exit devices does it cover?
The letter is the device fit type. R covers rim, surface vertical rod, less-bottom-rod, and 3-point devices. If you have a mortise exit device you need the M version instead, and a concealed vertical rod device takes the C version. Ordering the wrong letter means the trim will not drive the device.
3) What is the difference between the m-Kestros entrance, night latch, passage and dummy functions?
Four mechanical functions. KES908 Entrance is lever operated with a key that locks or unlocks the trim, which is the one most exterior staff doors get. KES903 Night Latch has no lever function, the key retracts the latch and the key is removable only when locked. KES914 Passage is always active and takes no cylinder. KES902 Dummy is rigid, so entry is only possible when the push bar is dogged down.
4) Does this TownSteel trim come with a cylinder, and what keying options exist?
The SC configuration uses a standard Schlage 6-pin C keyway mortise cylinder, which is what lets it drop into most existing Schlage-keyed master key systems. If your facility runs interchangeable cores instead, the m-Kestros is also offered in SFIC6 and SFIC7 small format, SLFIC Schlage large format, and CLFIC Corbin large format prep. Passage function takes no cylinder at all.
5) Can I replace a broken exit device trim without replacing the whole push bar?
That is exactly what this part is for. The m-Kestros escutcheon trim swaps onto an existing TownSteel or Von Duprin 22 or 99 Series device, so you can replace damaged trim, change the door's function (say from night latch to full entrance), or standardize the look across openings without pulling the exit device itself.
6) Do I have to specify handing when ordering the m-Kestros lever trim?
The trim is reversible and covers both LHR and RHR openings, so one part handles either hand. You still set the handing at install to match the door.
7) Can I use this trim on a fire rated door opening?
The m-Kestros mechanical trim is UL 10C compliant, so it can be specified on fire rated openings. Note the dummy and passage functions provide no locking, so the function you choose still has to suit the door's use, not just the rating.
8) What finishes and lever styles does the m-Kestros trim come in?
Two architectural finishes, 622 flat black and 626 satin chrome, and two lever styles, Sentinel and Quest. The MKS-08-R-S-626-SC configuration is the Sentinel lever in 626 satin chrome. If you are matching existing openings, 626 is the common commercial satin chrome and pairs with most chrome exit device hardware.
