Sargent LC-NB-8706-F-ETL-84 Surface Vertical Rod Exit Device, Storeroom Function, Less Bottom Rod, For 33-36 Inch Width, 84 Inch Height Door, Less Cylinder, Hex Key Dogging
The Sargent LC-NB-8706-F-ETL-84 is a Grade 1 surface vertical rod exit device engineered for demanding commercial openings that require reliable, code-compliant egress. Configured with Storeroom function and the ETL lever trim, it keeps the outside lever locked at all times while allowing free exit from the inside, making it ideal for secured areas where traffic control matters. This model ships less bottom rod (NB) for cleaner floor clearance and easier maintenance, and less cylinder (LC) so you can match your existing keying system. Sized for 33 to 36 inch wide doors up to 84 inches tall, it includes hex key dogging for convenient push-pull operation during high-traffic periods.
Features
- Grade 1 surface mounted vertical rod exit device built for heavy-duty commercial use.
- Storeroom (F) function keeps the outside lever locked while permitting free egress at all times.
- Less bottom rod (NB) design reduces floor obstructions and simplifies maintenance.
- Less cylinder (LC) allows integration with your preferred cylinder and keyway.
- ETL lever trim provides durable, ADA-friendly operation for pull-side access.
- Hex key dogging holds the pushbar depressed for latch retraction during peak traffic.
- Fits doors 33 to 36 inches wide and up to 84 inches in height.
Functional Details
The 06 Storeroom function secures the opening by keeping the outside trim locked at all times. Entry requires a key, while the inside pushbar always allows immediate, latch-retracting egress to meet life-safety requirements.
- Latchbolt is retracted by key from outside or by pushpad from inside.
- Outside lever is always rigid (locked); key retracts latchbolt.
- Inside pushpad always active for free egress.
Included Components
The device ships with the top vertical rod assembly, surface strikes, ETL lever trim, and hex key dogging hardware. A cylinder is not included and must be ordered separately to complete keying.
