Functional Details

The 8774 electrified function controls the outside lever through electric current. In fail secure mode, the outside trim remains locked when de-energized and unlocks only when power is applied, allowing remote access control while free egress is always available from the inside.

• Electric latch retraction and electrified trim functions available for remote access control.
• Fail secure: outside trim is locked when power is off.
• Free egress at all times from the inside through the push pad.

Arm Type Details

The surface vertical rod configuration uses exposed top and bottom rods that engage latch points at the head and sill of the frame. This two-point latching arrangement secures the door along its vertical edge, making it well suited for taller openings where added holding strength is needed.

Included Components

The device ships with the surface vertical rod mechanism, ETJ electrified trim with G design lever, top and bottom latch assemblies, and standard mounting hardware for installation on an 84" door.
