It is the Rhodes lever profile with tactile surface in the 03-233 button lever format. The lever hub has a push button opening for the inside push button mechanism. Non-handed. Available (3-4 weeks).

Rhodes Tactile Button Lever: Profile and Application

The 03-233-8RO and the 03-233-8AT (Athens Tactile Button Lever) are both tactile button levers in the 03-233 format and cover the same range of ND Series and ALX Series inside trim positions. The only difference between them is the lever profile design. The 03-233-8RO uses the Rhodes lever design and the 03-233-8AT uses the Athens lever design. When a building project has established the Rhodes lever as its standard profile and specific inside trim positions at button-function doors require the tactile designation, the 03-233-8RO is the correct selection to maintain visual consistency at those positions.

The button lever format is the inside trim lever for ND Series and ALX Series functions where the inside lever incorporates a push button that controls the locked or unlocked state of the outside lever. The push button opening in the 03-233-8RO lever hub accommodates this mechanism. The 03-042-RHO (Rhodes Rose) is the correct inside and outside rose for the Rhodes lever design and is used at the inside trim position alongside the 03-233-8RO.
