Sargent LC-56-8876-J-ETB-24V Electrified Rim Exit Device, Fail Secure Power Off Locks Lever, Key Retracts Latch, Electric Latch Retraction, For 37-42" Width Door, Less Cylinder, Hex Key Dogging

The Sargent LC-56-8876-J-ETB-24V is a heavy-duty electrified rim exit device built for high-traffic commercial and institutional openings that require controlled access. Designed for door widths between 37 and 42 inches, this device combines electric latch retraction (ELR) with a fail secure configuration, so the outside lever remains locked when power is removed. The 56 prefix indicates signal switch monitoring, while the ETB trim with J lever provides durable key-operated entry. Supplied less cylinder for field-matching to existing keying systems, this unit operates on 24V and includes hex key dogging for convenient latch hold-back during peak periods.
