Sargent 8237 26D Classroom Mortise Lock Satin Chrome

Product Description

The SARGENT 8237 26D is a classroom mortise lock body designed for institutional door hardware applications. This is a lockbody-only unit, meaning it ships without trim, cylinders, or levers, and is intended for use by locksmiths, facility maintenance professionals, or door hardware installers completing or replacing a mortise lock assembly. The 8237 function provides the classroom lock configuration standard in educational settings, and the 26D finish designates satin chrome, a durable, low-maintenance surface appropriate for high-traffic environments.

This lockbody is suited for installation in schools, universities, and other institutional facilities where classroom security functions are required. The satin chrome finish blends with standard commercial door hardware and resists corrosion in interior environments. Because this is a lockbody-only product, the installer must source compatible trim, rose, cylinder, and lever components separately to complete the mortise lock assembly.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed locksmith or qualified door hardware technician familiar with commercial mortise lock systems. The door must be properly mortised to accept the lockbody before installation, and all power to any electrified hardware in the assembly must be de-energized before service. Follow local building and life safety codes, including applicable fire-rated door assembly requirements, when selecting and installing classroom security hardware.
