    Product Description

    Every school, hospital, and government building running access control needs electrified locks — and Fail Safe is required by code on fire-rated egress paths. This is that lock.

    The Sargent RXLC-8270-24V-LW1L-32 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.

    Fail Safe Operation — This lock unlocks automatically when power is lost. That's not a defect — it's a code requirement. On fire-rated egress doors, the lock MUST release during a power failure so occupants can get out. If you need the door to stay locked during a power outage, you want Fail Secure instead.
    Ships Less Cylinder — This lock does not include a mortise cylinder. You need to order a Sargent mortise cylinder separately to match your building's existing keyway (HA, LA, RA, RB, RC, etc.). The product image shows the lock with a cylinder installed for reference — yours will arrive without one. If you're not sure which keyway you need, pull an existing cylinder from the building and look at the key — or call us at (877) 365-5625 and we'll help you figure it out.

    This one comes with LW1 Escutcheon, L Lever in Bright Stainless — mirror-polished 32 finish for high-end applications where corrosion resistance and visual impact both matter.

    The L lever is Sargent's straight-design commercial lever — clean lines, ADA compliant, gets the job done without drawing attention to itself. The lever that disappears into the building.

    Pro-Tip from Our Locksmiths: Fail Safe vs. Fail Secure — get this right. Fail Safe unlocks when power is lost. Fail Secure stays locked when power is lost. The most common mistake we see? Contractors ordering Fail Safe for a server room — that should be Fail Secure. Check with your AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction) if you're not sure.
