Sargent 12-56-8874-J-ETL-24V Electrified Fire Rated Rim Exit Device, Electric Latch Retraction, Fail Secure Power Off Locks Lever, No Cylinder, For 37-42 Inch Width Door, Less Dogging

The Sargent 12-56-8874-J-ETL-24V is a fire rated rim exit device built for high-traffic commercial openings that require electrified access control. Designed to fit doors from 37 to 42 inches wide, it combines electric latch retraction (ELR) with a fail secure lever trim, so the outside lever stays locked when power is lost. The J (ETJ) lever design and 24V operation make it a dependable choice for integration with card readers, keypads, and building automation systems. Supplied less dogging to meet fire-rated requirements and without a cylinder, this device offers reliable panic egress and controlled entry for schools, healthcare facilities, and institutional buildings.

• Electric Latch Retraction (ELR): Latch retracts electrically to allow remote access and free entry.
• Fail Secure: Outside lever remains locked when power is off.
• Free egress from the inside at all times.
