OPTIONS/FEATURES
Abrasive Lever Option
Besides complying with a wide variety of accessibility codes and ordinances, Best Access Systems lever handles are
available with a special abrasive feature. Abrasive strip on the lever immediately identifies warnings on doors to
hazardous areas for the blind. To order: Designate "AL" onHowtoOrder(page3).Note: abrasive strip is
available on all levers, except #14, #15, #16 levers in 613 finish.
Lost Motion Feature
The Lost Motion feature allows the lever handle to move 45 degrees from parallel to the horizontal plane without
engaging the latchbolt assembly. When the lockset is in the locked mode, this feature makes over-torque or over-
lever-age abuse more difficult to achieve. To order: designate "LM" on How to Order (page 3).
Non IC Lever Option
The 9K heavy duty cylindrical lock may be adapted to existing keying systems by using a special retrofit lever and throw
member that will accept 6 pin single shear-line cylinders from non BEST manufacturers. No internal modifications are
required to adapt the 9K to cylinders from the following manufacturers: Corbin-Russwin, Medeco, Sargent, Schlage,
Yale. Refer to non-IC Best keying products brochure for more details.
RQE Feature
The 9K lever handle cylindrical can be supplied with a request-to-exit (RQE) switch. A normally open switch provides
momentary switch closure when the inside lever is rotated. To order: designate "RQE" on How to Order (page 3).
Tactile Lever Option
Tactile levers may be used in areas where improved grip is required or as a warning in hazardous areas. Grooves are
machined into the back of the hand grasp portion of the lever to improve grip and/or to provide a sensory warning in
hazardous areas. This option can be used for Blind, Safety or Accessibility applications. To order: Designate "TL" on
How to Order (page 3).
