Sargent LC-8976-G-ETL-24V Mortise Exit Device, Electrified Trim 24V Fail Secure, ET Control, L Lever, For 43-48" Width Door, Less Cylinder, Hex Key Dogging, Grade 1
The Sargent LC-8976-G-ETL-24V is a Grade 1 electrified mortise exit device built for high-traffic commercial openings measuring 43 to 48 inches in width. Operating on 24V, it features a fail secure electrified trim configuration, meaning the outside lever remains locked until the device is energized, maintaining security during power loss. This model ships less cylinder to accommodate your preferred keying system and includes the ET trim design with an L lever for comfortable operation. Hex key dogging allows the latch to be held retracted for push-pull function during peak hours. Engineered by Sargent for durability and dependable access control, it suits schools, offices, and institutional facilities.

Functional Details
This 24V DC electrified ET trim operates in fail secure mode. With power removed, the outside lever is locked. Applying power unlocks the outside lever. When unlocked, turning the outside lever retracts the mortise latch. Operating the inside push rail permits egress regardless of the electrical state of the trim. A compatible mortise cylinder, ordered separately, provides mechanical key override.
Trim and Lever Details
The ET trim has an L lever. Electrical power controls whether the outside lever is locked or unlocked; operating an unlocked lever retracts the latch. Select the LHR or RHR handing to suit the opening.
Included Components
The device ships as a complete electrified mortise exit device with ET control trim and L lever. A cylinder is not included and must be ordered separately to match your facility's keying system.
