Syntegra – LX Series
Lever Operated Openings
The LX Series exemplifies Syntégra’s “deeper integration” attitudes and goals. The central lock case accepts handles and keyed cylinders from either and/or both sides. The lock case is configurable with the same popular functions offered in conventional locksets, but we can also do much more. The lever handles are protected by a break-away clutch allowing these systems to be used in the most abusive and demanding applications. Syntégra door systems do not use bulky escutcheons, roses, or edge plates to hide door preparations and mechanisms. Only the vital elements that are needed for operation are exposed, and everything else is concealed and protected.
Imagine being able to operate and secure each leaf of a pair of doors independently without the need for coordinators, astragals, and manual flushbolts. Pairs and single doors also benefit in concealing the side latch and strike from view and tampering by latching at the top of the door. With electrical functions such as electrified lever (ELS) and electrified latch retraction (ML), the LX Series will interface with virtually any access control and door automation system.
Typical Applications
Single doors, pairs and double egress pairs found in the following applications:
- Areas of Refuge – Stairwell, Elevator Lobby, Elevator Cab
- Office single and pairs
- Main entrances
- Surgical suites

UL10C with single-point top latching or top and bottom latching.
38-1/2" (978 mm) from finished structural floor (not including floor covering).
Cast Stainless Steel. Finished to match customer requirements.
01 – Square = 2-5/32" (55 mm) | 02 – Tubular = 2-9/16" (65 mm) | 03 – Curved = 2-3/8" (60 mm)
Top strike can be mortised or surface applied (P/N TSK-1 Kit). Bottom strike, if applicable, is a ½” diameter hole threshold or surface strike (P/N BSK-1 Kit).
ML - Motorized latch retraction quietly and efficiently retracts the latch(es) and pushbar when energized. Configured for fail-secure to comply to fire ratings
ELS - Electrified lever. Energizing allows lever to rotate to retract the latch(es). Fail-Secure or Fail-Safe available.
LM - Latchbolt monitoring provides notification when the latch is extended.
Top latching standard with – 7/8" (22.2 mm) throw. Projection type Friction limiting-design with deadlatch feature. Bottom – Massive Stainless Steel 5/8" throw bolt with conical tip.
Standard diameter Mortise Cylinder with 'standard' cam. Accepts 1" cylinder length or greater. Cylinder in excess of 1” requires a spacer collar equal to this excess (Example 1-1/8" length requires a 1/8" collar).
Requires a 3/16" collar for a 1" cylinder length. For longer cylinders, use the following to dimension the collar: Cylinder Length –1” + 3/16”= Collar (Ex. 1-1/4" requires a 7/16” collar).
