Sargent 8774-G-ETB-96-24V Electrified Surface Vertical Rod Exit Device, Fail Secure, For 43-48" Width, 96" Ht Door

The Sargent 8774-G-ETB-96-24V is a heavy-duty electrified surface vertical rod exit device built for wide, tall openings measuring 43" to 48" wide on 96" high doors. Configured for fail secure operation, it keeps the opening locked from the outside during a power loss while always allowing free egress from the inside. The device pairs the 8700 series surface vertical rod chassis with the ETB electrified trim and the G lever design, running on 24V DC power for integration with access control, electric strikes, and remote release systems. Durable construction and ANSI Grade 1 certification make it a reliable choice for high-traffic commercial and institutional entrances.
