Installation Guide for SARGENT 10X Line Cylindrical Lockset

Important Information

The accuracy of door preparation is critical for the proper functioning and security of the 10X Line Cylindrical Lockset. Misalignment can cause premature wear and reduced security. Always verify the backset before marking and drilling the door. Do not force the lock during installation; if the lockbody does not engage the latch easily, check the door preparation for errors.

Tools Required

• #2 Phillips screwdriver
• Lever release tool (provided)
• 5/16" drill bit
• 1/8" drill bit
• 5/32" drill bit

Door Preparation

1. Use template A8290 to mark the door.
2. Drill the door according to the template.
3. Verify the dimensions (backset must match the latch).
4. Install the strike.

Latch Installation

Insert the latch into the door, ensuring the bevel edge of the bolt faces the strike plate. Attach using the two provided #8-32 x 3/4" screws. The deadlocking latch must stop on the strike when the door is closed.

Adjusting for Door Thickness

The lock is factory preset for 1-3/4" (44mm) doors. To adjust for other thicknesses:

1. Remove the trim assembly from the lockbody.
2. Rotate the mounting plate to adjust for the proper door thickness.
3. For a 2" thick door, the inside face of the mounting plate should be flush with the face of the bearing.
4. Verify the position using markings on the through-bolt stud or by measuring from the inside surface of the mounting plate to the centerline of the retractor.
5. Reassemble the outside trim assembly to the lockbody.

Installing Outside Assembly

Insert the lockbody into the door from the outside, ensuring the lockbody hooks the latch case and the retractor engages the bolt tail. Do not force the installation. The latch bolt tail should be centered in the depth of the retractor.

Installing Inside Components

1. Remove the rose from the inside spring housing assembly.
2. Align and insert the inside spring housing onto the installed lockbody.
3. Install screws to tighten the lock to the door.
4. Orient the dimples on the side of the rose horizontally at the 3 and 9 o'clock positions, aligning them with the openings on the spring housing assembly.
5. Install the rose onto the inside spring housing assembly.
6. In the unlocked position, verify the button is adjusted properly.
7. Install the inside lever.

Cylinder Installation

Before installing, use a flat blade screwdriver to rotate the cam until the driver points are in the 6 and 12 o'clock positions. For standard cylinders, ensure the cylinder spacer is "snapped" onto the cylinder before installing into the outside trim assembly.

Lock Timing

Timing is required if cylinders were not factory-installed. Remove the cylinder lever to view the internal cam. Use a slotted screwdriver to rotate the cam fully clockwise (or counter-clockwise depending on the function) until the drive points are at the 6 and 12 o'clock positions. Test the cylinder with the key before closing the door.

• 1-3/8" door installations (requires adapter plates).
• Installation of single and double lever pulls (10XU93, 10XU94).
