Features

1. For versatile applications, lever by knob trim variations are available.
2. Rose locking pin and rose assembly design offers great torque resistance. It prevents the locking pin from twisting, bending, or breaking under attack.
3. The innovative design of the slotted key release cam and locking lug assembly create maximum attack resistance. Even though damaged, the lock still allows key access. In addition, the lever is fully functional from the inside. The hub-mounted torsion spring and strong retractor springs help prevent lever sag and offer a smooth and snappy operation.
4. Strong through-bolt mounting studs increase torque resistance. Heavy rose liner material is highly attack resistant.
5. Strong retractor springs provide resistance to lever sag.
6. Zinc hubs with a shrouded locking lug, guaranteeing higher quality and increased torque resistance.
7. The outside lever sleeve is a seamless one piece construction made of a hardened steel alloy that provides additional reinforcement in the locking lug slot.
8. Lost Motion feature available allowing 45º lever rotation in either direction without engaging retractor assembly.
9. Interchangeable core allows for quick re-keying and customized masterkeying.

Lever Features

Abrasive Lever Option

Besides complying with a wide variety of accessibility codes and ordinances, BEST lever handles are available with a special abrasive feature. Abrasive strip on the lever immediately identifies warnings on doors to hazardous areas for the blind. To order: Designate "AL" on How to Order (page 3). Note: abrasive strip is available on all levers, except #14, #15, #16 levers in 613 finish.

Lost Motion Feature

The Lost Motion feature allows the lever handle to move 45 degrees from parallel to the horizontal plane without engaging the latchbolt assembly. When the lockset is in the locked mode, this feature makes over-torque or over-lever-age abuse more difficult to achieve. To order: designate "LM" on How to Order (page 3).

Non IC Lever Option

The 9K heavy duty cylindrical lock may be adapted to existing keying systems by using a special retrofit lever and throw member that will accept 6 pin single shear-line cylinders from non BEST manufacturers. No internal modifications are required to adapt the 9K to cylinders from the following manufacturers: Corbin-Russwin, Medeco, Sargent, Schlage, Yale. Refer to BEST® non-IC keying products brochure for more details.

RQE Feature

The 9K lever handle cylindrical can be built to incorporate a request-to-exit (RQE) switch. A normally open switch provides momentary switch closure when the inside lever is rotated. RQE option requires modification to chassis and is sold with assembly unit only. To order: designate "RQE" on How to Order (page 3).

Tactile Lever Option

Tactile levers may be used in areas where improved grip is required or as a warning in hazardous areas. Grooves are machined into the back of the hand grasp portion of the lever to improve grip and/or to provide a sensory warning in hazardous areas. This option can be used for Blind, Safety or Accessibility applications. To order: Designate "TL" on How to Order (page 3).
