Sargent 486 26D Single Cylinder Deadbolt Satin Chrome

Product Description

The SARGENT 486 26D is a single cylinder deadbolt with a blank plate configuration, designed for commercial and residential door hardware applications. The single cylinder design uses a keyed cylinder on the exterior and a blank plate on the interior, making it suitable for doors where interior thumb-turn hardware is not required or is handled by a separate trim. The satin chrome finish provides a low-sheen, corrosion-resistant surface appropriate for high-use environments. Installation is typically performed by licensed locksmiths, commercial door hardware specialists, or experienced finish carpenters.

This deadbolt is suited for hollow metal, wood, or composite door assemblies where a 2-3/4 inch backset is required. The blank plate interior configuration is commonly specified in commercial, institutional, or multi-family residential projects where interior access control or restricted egress is a design requirement. This part is appropriate for new construction and retrofit applications where the door prep matches a standard ANSI deadbolt footprint.

Key Features

• Single cylinder operation with keyed exterior entry
• Blank plate interior - no thumb-turn, suited for restricted-access applications
• 2-3/4 inch backset fits standard commercial and residential door preparations
• Satin chrome (26D) finish offers low-sheen appearance and corrosion resistance

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation deadbolt for doors prepared to a standard ANSI single cylinder deadbolt layout with a 2-3/4 inch backset.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed locksmith or qualified door hardware installer. Verify door thickness and backset measurement before installation to ensure proper latch and strike alignment. Follow applicable building codes regarding egress requirements before specifying a blank plate interior configuration, as some occupancy types restrict its use. Ensure the door frame strike is correctly mortised and reinforced to support the deadbolt throw.
