Sargent bp-8243-10be Mortise Lock Apartment Corridor Bronze

Product Description

The SARGENT bp-8243-10be is a mortise lock body from the Sargent 8200 Series, designed for apartment corridor applications in commercial and residential access control. This is a lock body only unit, meaning it does not include trim, levers, or roses. It features a single cylinder configuration with a deadbolt, providing keyed entry from one side and interior turn control on the other. The finish is Dark Oxidized Satin Bronze Oil Rubbed, a durable, traditional finish suited for period-style hardware installations. Licensed locksmiths and commercial door hardware installers are the primary trades who specify and install this hardware.

The bp-8243-10be fits within the Sargent 8200 Series mortise lock platform, which is commonly installed on apartment entry corridors, multifamily residential buildings, and light commercial applications where an apartment corridor function is required. This function typically allows free egress from inside while requiring a key or credential from the corridor side. The lock body is intended to be paired with compatible Sargent 8200 Series trim, cylinders, and strikes selected separately based on door prep and project specifications.

Key Features

• Apartment corridor function: free egress from inside, keyed entry from corridor side
• Single cylinder deadbolt configuration for added security
• Lock body only — trim, levers, roses, and cylinders sold separately
• Dark Oxidized Satin Bronze Oil Rubbed finish for traditional aesthetic

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style component within the Sargent 8200 Series mortise lock platform. Compatible trim, cylinders, strikes, and support plates must be selected separately to complete the installation.

Installation Notes

Mortise lock installation requires a properly routed mortise pocket in the door stile and should be performed by a licensed locksmith or qualified door hardware installer. Verify door thickness, backset, and handing before ordering trim and cylinder components. De-energize any electrified hardware and secure the door in a safe position before servicing. Local building codes and fire egress requirements should be confirmed prior to specifying corridor function hardware in multifamily or commercial occupancies.
