Sargent 8231 LSL Trim Utility Function Mortise Lockset

A heavy-duty mortise platform for doors where a cylindrical lock is not enough.

The Sargent 8200 Series is an extra-heavy-duty mortise platform for commercial and institutional openings. Certified to and exceeds ANSI/BHMA A156.13, Series 1000, Operational Grade 1 and Security Grade 1 with all standard trims. This listing is the Utility function with LSL trim -- the L lever carried on the LS Security Escutcheon.

Utility Function

How the lock behaves at the opening, stated as the catalog states it, with what each line means in practice:

• Key outside retracts latchbolt
• Trim outside is always locked
• No inside trim or cylinder
• Multi-Function Lockbody: A multi-function 8200/7800 lockbody — this is the same multi-function body used across the 04, 05, 06, 13, 15, 31, 36, 37 and 38 functions, so one lockbody covers them all and a distributor stocks one case instead of several; even though this is a 31 function it uses that same body -- converting to or from it takes a Trim One Side Kit, not a new lockset.
• Anti-Shim Protection: Auxiliary deadlatch — a small plunger beside the latchbolt rides the strike when the door closes; with it depressed the latchbolt cannot be shimmed back with a card.

LSL Trim Design

LSL pairs the LS Security Escutcheon (2-1/2" W x 7-3/4" H (64 x 197mm), forged security escutcheon; the cylinder is protected by the escutcheon) with the L lever (5" (127mm) long, +/- 5/16" (8mm) return). The carrier is an escutcheon -- a full plate covering the lock area, a different part from a rose and a different door preparation.

• Carrier: LS Security Escutcheon, 2-1/2" W x 7-3/4" H (64 x 197mm) (forged security escutcheon; the cylinder is protected by the escutcheon)
• Lever: L lever -- 5" (127mm) long, +/- 5/16" (8mm) return
• Handing: Handed trim; specify LH, RH, LHR or RHR when ordering.
• Accessibility: All levers meet ADA compliance for national codes. Solid forged or cast. Lever designs J, L and P have lever returns within 1/2" (13mm) or less of door face and meet California State Reference Fire Code. All lever height (+/- 1/16") measurements represent total distance from door face.
• Operation: Easy operation. Only 30 degrees of lever rotation required to retract latchbolt
• Security trim: Forged security escutcheon, furnished as the OUTSIDE trim on this function (there is no inside trim or cylinder); the cylinder is protected by the escutcheon.

This trim is handed -- specify LH, RH, LHR or RHR when ordering. Here the LS Security Escutcheon is handed in its own right, so this trim is handed even with a straight lever, and a part supplied in the wrong hand cannot be corrected on site.
