40H Series: Mortise LocksPremium Performance, Superior Security.
BEST’s 40H series mortise locks and deadbolts deliver exceptional strength, security, and durability. Our robust design features and precision-engineered components make the 40H mortise lock series ideal for high traffic applications. Backed by an industry-leading limited lifetime mechanical warranty, the 40H series delivers security you can depend on.

Features:

• Solid one-piece stainless steel anti-friction latch provides 50% more surface contact with strike for superior strength and security. Reversible latch rotates 180 degrees for easy handing change without opening case. Precision-engineered curve provides enhanced cycle life with reduced wear to the strike.

• Non-handed cylinder retainer.

• Armored front completely surrounds latch and deadbolt providing increased lateral strength. Staked assembly design allows the armored front to self-align with the door bevel during installation.

• Enhanced case integrity achieved through four case cover screws (one at each corner), plus interlocking armored front and cover design at the latch.

• Roller bearing hub mechanism provides smooth, wear resistant operation.

• Locking toggle includes clear indication of "locked" and "unlocked" states.

• 40H case, cover, and armored front manufactured from 0.095" cold rolled steel for strength and durability.

• Fusible link.

• Four position hub toggle design determines whether each hub is always locked, always unlocked, or locked by key for easy handing change without opening case.

• Lever return spring mechanism located in trim for enhanced protection against lever droop, providing a firm, positive return of the lever to the horizontal position.

• Self-aligning trim mechanism for fast, easy, and accurate installation.

• Curved lip strike and strike box assembly provides an aesthetic, non-handed solution to complement field reversible case.

• Solid machined cylinder rings with wavy washer provides resistance to wrenching of cylinder. Cylinder security screw prevents removal of cylinder without first removing interchangeable core.

• Visual indicator options show a padlock icon open for unlocked and padlock icon closed and painted red for locked.

• Non-handed stainless steel auxiliary bolt for ease of changing hand.
