Sargent 70-28C Ll 26D Classroom Lever Exit Trim

Product Description

The SARGENT 70-28C LL 26D is a classroom lever exit device trim designed for use with compatible exit devices in educational and commercial facilities. This trim assembly features an L-Rose escutcheon and L-Lever handle configuration, finished in satin chrome (26D). It is prepped for Small Format Interchangeable Core (SFIC) cylinders and is supplied less core, allowing the installer to specify and install the appropriate SFIC cylinder separately. Locksmiths, commercial door hardware installers, and licensed contractors typically handle this type of hardware as part of a broader exit device or access control installation.

This trim is intended for classroom-function applications where the lever operates freely from the egress side and requires a key or credential to retract the latch from the outside. Common installation scenarios include K-12 schools, universities, and commercial office environments where code-compliant life-safety egress hardware is required alongside controlled entry. The SFIC prep accommodates a range of interchangeable core systems, giving facilities management flexibility in keying and rekeying without full cylinder replacement.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed locksmith or qualified commercial door hardware technician familiar with exit device trim and SFIC cylinder systems. Ensure the exit device body is properly mounted and the door is de-energized from any electric latch retraction or electrified trim circuit before attaching trim components. Verify that the selected SFIC core is keyed and functioning correctly before completing the installation. All exit device hardware installations in life-safety corridors should comply with applicable NFPA 101 and local building code requirements.
