Specifier & Installer Notes

The curved lip on the Sargent 808 is the correct configuration for use with standard cylindrical locksets in hollow metal frames — it accommodates slight door-to-frame misalignment and reduces latch drag. For applications requiring a flat lip or extended lip strike, confirm frame prep and lockset type before ordering. Strike centerline height for standard G2 cylindrical lock preps in 1-3/4" hollow metal frames is 40" AFF per standard commercial door practice.
