Function Information:

The Sargent 28-7G05 LB is a high-performance Grade 2 Cylindrical Office Lever Lockset engineered for versatility and security in commercial, institutional, and government environments.

Engineered for Durability and Rapid Deployment
The Sargent 7-Line is a favorite among facility managers due to its robust construction and industry-leading installation speed.
- Exceeds Grade 2 Standards: This series significantly surpasses ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Grade 2 cycle requirements, ensuring years of maintenance-free service in high-traffic office suites and public areas.
- One-Minute Installation: Specifically designed for efficiency, the 7G05 installs in one minute or less, drastically reducing labor costs for facility-wide hardware upgrades.
- Thru-Bolt Stability: Internal thru bolts provide maximum strength and stability without requiring additional door preparation, fitting standard modified 161 door preps perfectly.
- Solid Cast Construction: The levers are solid, one-piece castings, offering a substantial, precise feel and superior resistance to daily wear compared to stamped alternatives.
Office & Entrance Function (ANSI F109)
The 05 Office Function provides flexible security modes, making it the ideal choice for executive offices, consultation rooms, and administrative entrances.
- Dual Locking Modes: The exterior lever is locked by a push-button on the interior or by a key from the exterior. Rotating the interior turn-button keeps the exterior lever locked, providing a "fixed" secure state.
- Instant Interior Egress: The inside lever is always free for immediate exit, ensuring 100% compliance with Life Safety Codes and ADA accessibility requirements.
- Deadlocking Protection: Features a 1/2" throw brass latch with a deadlocking auxiliary bolt to prevent "shimming" or unauthorized manipulation when the door is closed.
- ADA Compliant B-Lever: The straight B-lever design is ergonomically shaped for ease of use, meeting all Americans with Disabilities Act standards for operation without tight grasping or twisting.
