About this item

The BEST 9K37W is ANSI F87: both levers are always fixed, both are operated by key only, and neither can be unlocked without a key from the corresponding cylinder. Inside egress is not free. A key is required to operate either lever from either side of the door. This is the most restrictive lever lock function available, and it's specified for exactly that reason: psychiatric facilities, behavioral health units, secure observation rooms, forensic units, and correctional settings where controlling both-direction passage is a clinical, operational, or security requirement for the specific door.

Before specifying the institutional function, confirm with the Authority Having Jurisdiction that ANSI F87 is permitted for the opening. Life Safety Code and building codes restrict where egress can be controlled. The 9K37W can only be installed on openings where applicable code explicitly permits key-only egress. This is a specifier's and facility manager's decision in coordination with the AHJ, not a field call.

ANSI F87 Institutional Function Explained

 

Turning a key in the outside cylinder retracts the latch from outside. Turning a key in the inside cylinder retracts the latch from inside. There's no free lever operation, no push button, and no turn piece on either side. The levers are always rigid. They provide grip only. All latch retraction is key-operated. This makes the 9K37W appropriate for controlled access rooms within secure facilities where the occupant population cannot be permitted to exit freely without staff authorization.

Attack Resistance: How the 9K37W Is Built for Secure Applications

 

The 9K37W includes a layered attack-resistance design built into every component. The rose locking pin and rose assembly prevent the locking pin from twisting, bending, or breaking under direct attack. The slotted key release cam and locking lug assembly create maximum attack resistance at the point where forced entry attempts typically focus. Even if the exterior trim is damaged, the lock continues to allow key access and maintains its core function. The outside lever sleeve is seamless one-piece hardened steel alloy that reinforces the critical locking lug slot area. Zinc hubs with a shrouded locking lug increase overall torque resistance throughout the mechanism. Through-bolt mounting, required on this function, adds additional torque resistance at the mounting points themselves. The hub-mounted torsion spring and strong retractor springs prevent lever sag and maintain consistent lever return feel across the product's life.

 

Through-Bolt Mounting Requirement

 

The 9K37W requires through-bolt mounting in addition to standard ANSI A115.2 door preparation. Two 5/16" holes at the 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock positions on the rose are needed. A drill jig is available to ensure accurate hole placement. Through-bolt mounting significantly increases the lock's resistance to lateral forces and panel separation attacks common in secure facility applications. Do not install without through-bolts.
