Sargent R56AF 10B Latch Retraction Push Rail Kit

Product Description

The SARGENT R56AF 10B is an electric latch retraction push rail assembly kit designed for use with F-rail panic hardware on exit door applications. This kit enables electrically controlled latch retraction, allowing the door latch to be released remotely via an access control signal without manual operation of the push rail. It is installed by licensed locksmiths, door hardware specialists, or licensed electricians working on commercial egress and access control systems. The oil rubbed bronze finish provides a consistent aesthetic match to existing 10B-finished hardware.

This assembly kit is suited for commercial and institutional buildings where controlled egress is required at exit doors equipped with F-rail push bar hardware. Typical applications include office buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, and other occupancies that require door hardware integrated with access control or alarm systems. The electric latch retraction function supports timed, card-reader, or alarm-triggered door release scenarios common in modern access control installations.
