The Sargent 8774-F-ETJ-84-12V is a heavy-duty electrified surface vertical rod exit device built for demanding commercial and institutional openings. Engineered for 33-36" wide by 84" tall doors, it pairs reliable panic exit performance with electrified access control through the ETJ (J) lever trim. Operating on 12V power in a fail secure configuration, the device keeps the outside trim locked when power is lost, maintaining security at the opening while allowing free egress at all times. With its surface-mounted vertical rods and Grade 1 construction, the 8774-F-ETJ-84-12V delivers durable, code-compliant operation for high-traffic environments.

Functional Details

The 8774-F (fail secure) function controls the outside trim electrically. When power is applied, the outside lever retracts the latch to allow entry; when power is removed, the outside trim remains locked, requiring a key to enter while egress through the device remains unaffected.

• Fail Secure: Outside trim is locked when power is removed.
• Key or electrical actuation retracts the latch for entry.
• Free egress at all times from the inside.

Arm Type Details

The ETJ trim uses the J lever design, a return-style lever that meets accessibility requirements. The electrified trim controls entry function while the exit device body handles vertical rod latching at the top and bottom of the door.

Included Components

The device ships as a complete surface vertical rod exit device with top and bottom latch assemblies, vertical rods, ETJ electrified lever trim, and mounting hardware sized for a 33-36" wide, 84" tall door.
