Sargent 70-485 26D Deadbolt Sfic Prep Satin Chrome

Product Description

The SARGENT 70-485 26D is a single cylinder deadbolt designed for commercial and institutional door hardware applications. It features a 2-3/4 inch backset and is prepared for Small Format Interchangeable Core (SFIC) installation, shipped without a core so the end user can install the keying system of their choice. The satin chrome (26D) finish provides a low-glare, brushed appearance suited for interior and exterior doors in high-traffic facilities. This deadbolt is installed by licensed locksmiths, commercial door hardware specialists, and experienced facilities maintenance technicians.

This deadbolt is intended for commercial doors requiring a standardized backset and a flexible keying solution. The SFIC prep makes it compatible with master-keying programs commonly used in schools, healthcare facilities, government buildings, hotels, and multi-tenant commercial properties. The less-core configuration allows facilities to stock hardware and populate cores separately, streamlining procurement and rekeying operations without replacing the entire lock body.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed locksmith or qualified commercial door hardware technician familiar with SFIC core systems. Verify door thickness, backset measurement, and existing bore preparation before installing. Do not force the core into the SFIC prep without confirming core format compatibility. Follow the door hardware manufacturer's template instructions and applicable local building codes for finish hardware installation.
