Product Description
This is the lock you put on every office door in a commercial building. Turn the key once in the morning, the door stays unlocked all day. Turn it again at night, it's locked.
The Sargent 70-8243-LW1L-10B is a Entry/Office function mortise lock from the 8200 Series — Sargent's flagship commercial mortise platform that's been trusted on schools, hospitals, office buildings, and government facilities for decades. Entry/Office function means one key turn unlocks the outside lever, and it stays unlocked until you deliberately relock it with the key. Inside lever is always free. This is the lock that makes sense for daily office use.
