Sargent 06-5225 Replacement Latchbolt — 2-3/8" Backset, Sargent 6 Line Cylindrical Locks
The Sargent 06-5225 is a factory replacement latchbolt designed specifically for Sargent 6 Line cylindrical locksets, fitting the 6U15 (Passage) and 6U65 (Privacy) functions. With a 2-3/8" backset and an unguarded (non-deadlatching) design, this spring latchbolt restores proper door latching performance when the original component is worn, damaged, or lost — without requiring a full lockset replacement.
This is a direct OEM-style replacement part. Correct backset and function compatibility should be confirmed against the installed lockset before ordering. The 2-3/8" backset is standard for interior and lighter-duty commercial door applications where a shorter door-edge-to-centerline distance is appropriate.
What Is a Latchbolt?
A latchbolt is the beveled, spring-loaded component that extends from the door edge and engages the strike plate in the frame when the door closes. Turning the lever or knob retracts the latchbolt to allow the door to open. On passage and privacy function locksets, the latchbolt is the sole latching mechanism — there is no separate deadbolt. Replacing a worn or broken latchbolt restores positive latching, which is especially important on fire-labeled doors where positive latch engagement is required by code.
Function Reference
6U15 — Passage Function: Both levers freely retract the latch at all times. No locking capability. Commonly used on corridors, closets, and interior doors where free passage is required.
6U65 — Privacy Function: Outside lever is blocked by a thumb turn from inside. An emergency release allows unlocking from the outside. Typical applications include restrooms, dressing rooms, and single-occupancy offices.
