Sargent 1256-8710F Lhr 32D Vertical Rod Exit Device

Product Description

The SARGENT 1256-8710F LHR 32D is a Grade 1 surface-mounted vertical rod exit device built for wide stile door applications requiring fire-rated hardware and electric latch retraction. Rated for doors up to 84 inches in height and designed for 36-inch wide openings, this unit features a wide stile pushpad and an electric latch retraction (ELR) function that allows remote release without mechanical dogging. The satin stainless steel finish (32D) provides corrosion resistance in high-traffic commercial and institutional environments. Installation is left hand reverse (LHR) specific, so confirming door hand before ordering is essential.

This exit device is suited for commercial and institutional facilities where fire-rated egress hardware is required by code. Typical applications include stairwell doors, corridor doors, and other assemblies subject to fire door labeling requirements. The exit-only function means there is no exterior trim for entry, making it appropriate for one-way egress points such as emergency exits, back-of-house passages, and secured perimeter doors. The electric latch retraction feature supports integration with access control systems for remote or timed release.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed door hardware technician or qualified commercial contractor familiar with ANSI and NFPA 80 requirements for fire door assemblies. Disconnect all power to the electric latch retraction circuit before wiring or servicing the electrical components. Confirm door handing (LHR) and fire label requirements before mounting, as improper handing or non-rated installation voids fire door assembly compliance. Refer to the manufacturer installation instructions for rod length adjustment and top rod alignment procedures specific to the door height.
