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

The Sargent 56-8874-J-ETL-12V is a heavy-duty electrified rim exit device built for high-traffic commercial openings that require remote latch control. Featuring Electric Latch Retraction (ELR), it allows the latch to be withdrawn electronically for remote access, momentary release, or integration with access control and automatic operators. Configured as fail secure, the J (night latch) trim locks the lever when power is removed, maintaining security during a power loss. Designed for doors 37 to 42 inches wide and operating on 12V, this device ships without a cylinder and includes hex key dogging for convenient manual hold-open in low-security periods.
