Sargent 8774F Lhr 32D Surface Vertical Rod Exit Device

Product Description

The SARGENT 8774F LHR 32D is a Grade 1 surface vertical rod exit device built for wide stile door applications. It features a wide stile pushpad and is designed to fit a 36-inch device width on doors up to 84 inches in height. The device is configured to accept electrified trim, making it suitable for access-controlled egress points where electric locking or unlocking trim is required. Hex key dogging allows the latch to be held in the retracted position for high-traffic periods. The satin stainless steel (32D) finish provides corrosion resistance in demanding environments. This unit is left hand reverse (LHR) handed and is installed by licensed door hardware specialists or commercial locksmiths.

This exit device is intended for commercial and institutional applications where code-compliant panic hardware is required on wide stile aluminum or steel door frames. Typical installations include schools, hospitals, office buildings, and other facilities subject to life-safety egress requirements. The electrified trim-ready configuration suits locations where integrated access control at the exit point is part of the overall security design. The 84-inch door height compatibility makes it appropriate for standard commercial door openings as well as taller custom frames.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified door hardware technician or commercial locksmith familiar with life-safety egress requirements. Verify door handing before mounting to confirm left hand reverse orientation is correct for the opening. When connecting electrified trim, all low-voltage wiring work must comply with applicable NEC requirements and be coordinated with the access control system. Disengage power to the electrified trim circuit before making any wiring connections during installation or service.
