Sargent 484 Double Cylinder Deadlock – Commercial Deadbolt with LA Keyway
The Sargent 484 Double Cylinder Deadlock is a heavy-duty commercial deadbolt designed for applications where key control is required from both sides of the door — no thumbturn is present. Built on Sargent's proven 480 Series platform, the 484 uses Sargent's V-10 cylinder system and the LA keyway, making it well-suited for facilities that demand controlled access from both the secured and public side of a door. This configuration is commonly specified for storage rooms, utility corridors, mechanical rooms, and other commercial or institutional spaces where a thumbturn would represent a security vulnerability.
What Is a Double Cylinder Deadlock?
A double cylinder deadlock (also called a double-keyed deadbolt) requires a key to operate the deadbolt from either side of the door. Unlike a single cylinder deadbolt — which uses a thumbturn on the interior — both the outside and inside of this lock are operated exclusively by key. This function eliminates the risk of an intruder breaking a nearby glass panel and reaching in to turn a thumbturn. For doors with glass sidelights or vision panels, specifiers and facility managers frequently require this configuration. Note: Local life-safety codes and fire codes may restrict double cylinder deadbolts in certain egress paths; always verify with the authority having jurisdiction (AHJ) before specifying.

Specification & Compatibility Notes
The 484 is dimensioned for door applications consistent with the 480 Series (thinner door profile than the 584 Series, which targets standard 1-3/4" doors). Confirm door thickness and backset requirements against your door prep before ordering. Replacement cylinders, tailpieces (including tailpiece #867109 for special door thickness), tailpiece washers, and individual housing components are available as separate service parts, supporting long-term maintainability without full lock replacement. For facilities currently operating Sargent V-10 key systems, the 484 integrates directly into the existing master key hierarchy.
