Sargent 8255 LNL Office Function Mortise Lockset - LA Keyway
The Sargent 8255 LNL is a premium Grade 1 Heavy-Duty Mortise Lockset designed to provide flexible security for professional office environments, administrative suites, and commercial buildings. As a flagship model in the Sargent 8200 Series, it is engineered to withstand extreme physical abuse while offering the legendary reliability of a heavy-gauge steel mortise chassis. The 8255 Office Function (ANSI F04) allows for versatile access control, enabling the door to be locked or unlocked via the stop works (toggle) on the lock face or by the exterior key.
Versatile Office & Entrance Function (ANSI F04)
The 8255 function is the industry standard for private offices where users need to toggle between "open" and "restricted" access throughout the business day.
- Dual Locking Control: The outside lever is made rigid (locked) or operative (unlocked) by the stop works (toggle) located on the front of the lock body.
- Keyed Entry: When the outside lever is locked, entry is gained only via a physical key using the standard LA Keyway.
- Constant Free Egress: Regardless of the locking status, the inside lever always allows for immediate exit, ensuring full compliance with NFPA 101 Life Safety Codes.
