Sargent 56-LC-12-8706-F-ETL-84 Electrified Fire Rated Surface Vertical Rod Exit Device, Storeroom, For 33-36" Width, 84" Ht Door, Less Cylinder
The Sargent 56-LC-12-8706-F-ETL-84 is a fire rated surface vertical rod exit device engineered for secure, high-traffic openings that demand reliable electrified access control. Built around Sargent's proven 8700 series, this device pairs an ETL electrified trim in storeroom function with the durability needed for commercial and institutional environments. It fits doors measuring 33 to 36 inches wide and up to 84 inches tall, and ships less cylinder (LC) so you can specify the keying hardware that suits your facility. Fire rated construction makes it a dependable choice for stairwells, corridors, and other code-regulated passageways where life safety and controlled entry are both priorities.
Features
- Surface mounted vertical rod design provides two-point latching at the top and bottom of the door for added security.
- Fire rated (F) construction suitable for labeled door assemblies.
- Electrified ETL trim enables remote access control integration.
- Storeroom function keeps the outside trim locked at all times while allowing free egress.
- Sized for 33 to 36 inch wide and up to 84 inch tall doors.
- Ships less cylinder (LC) for flexible keying options.
Functional Details
The storeroom function keeps the exterior trim continuously locked, requiring a key to retract the latch from outside, while the inside push rail always allows immediate free egress for life safety compliance.
- Outside trim is continuously locked.
- Key retracts latch for entry.
- Free egress at all times from the inside.
Arm Type Details
This surface vertical rod configuration uses concealed-action rods mounted on the surface of the door face to drive top and bottom latch bolts. The rods engage strikes at the door header and sill, distributing latching force across two points for greater resistance to forced entry on fire rated openings.
Included Components
The device includes the 8700 series exit device chassis with surface vertical rods, top and bottom latch assemblies, the 56 ETL electrified storeroom trim, and mounting hardware. A cylinder is not included and must be ordered separately.
