Sargent 12-LC-8706-G-ETB-96 Fire Rated Surface Vertical Rod Exit Device, Storeroom, For 43-48" Width, 96" Ht Door, Less Cylinder
The Sargent 12-LC-8706-G-ETB-96 is a fire rated surface vertical rod exit device engineered for demanding commercial openings. Built for doors measuring 43-48" wide and 96" tall, it pairs reliable panic egress with storeroom-function access control. The ETB (B-style) lever trim keeps the outside lever locked at all times, requiring a key to retrieve latch access, while free egress is always available from the inside. Supplied less cylinder, this model lets you specify the cylinder to match your existing keying system. Its durable construction and fire rating make it a dependable choice for stairwells, corridors, and other code-regulated passages.
