Sargent LC-12-NB-8706-F-ETL-96 Fire Rated Surface Vertical Rod Exit Device, Storeroom, For 33-36 Inch Width, 96 Inch Height Door, Less Cylinder, No Dogging, Less Bottom Rod, Thermal Pin

The Sargent LC-12-NB-8706-F-ETL-96 is a fire-rated surface vertical rod exit device engineered for dependable security and code-compliant egress on tall openings. Built for doors 33 to 36 inches wide and up to 96 inches high, it features the ETL storeroom function, where the outside lever remains locked at all times and entry requires a key. This unit ships less cylinder and less bottom rod, making it ideal for installations that need top-rod-only operation while maintaining a clean, durable profile. With no dogging and an integrated thermal pin for fire-rated applications, it delivers the strength and reliability expected from Sargent's 80 Series line.

Functional Details

The ETL (12) storeroom function secures the opening so the door is always locked from the outside while allowing free egress from the inside. A key is required for entry, and the outside lever does not retract the latch unless the cylinder is actuated, making it well suited for secured storerooms and controlled-access areas.

• Outside lever is always locked.
• Key retracts latch bolt.
• Free egress at all times from the inside.

Included Components

This device includes the surface-mounted exit device chassis with top vertical rod and latch, less bottom rod hardware, and a lever trim for storeroom operation. The mortise cylinder is not included and must be ordered separately.
