Product Description
Upgrading to access control? The Fail Safe electrified mortise lock is the go-to for fire-rated corridor doors in schools, hospitals, and any occupancy where the code says doors MUST unlock during a power failure.
The Sargent LC-8270-24V-LNB-3 is a Fail Safe 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. Fail Safe electric operation wired for 24VDC from your access control panel, card reader, or keypad system. The lock retracts the latch automatically when power is cut — code-required on fire-rated egress doors.
This one comes with LN Rose, B Lever in Bright Brass — the classic 03 finish. Traditional, formal, and still specified on government buildings, courthouses, and historic renovations.
The B lever is Sargent's bread-and-butter commercial design — ADA compliant, returns to horizontal after use, non-handed so it works on any door. You'll find it on thousands of doors in every school district and hospital in the country.
