Sargent 653 BLACK – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Which Sargent exit devices does the 653 bottom strike fit?
The Sargent 653 alternate bottom strike is made for Sargent exit device series 12-2727, 12-3727, 12-8700, and 12-9700. If your device is one of those four families, it is the correct alternate bottom strike. For any other Sargent series, or another brand's device, it is not the right part.
2) What does an alternate bottom strike do on a vertical rod exit device?
The bottom strike is the piece the bottom rod latches into at the threshold. An alternate version like the Sargent 653 is offered when the standard strike does not suit the floor or threshold condition on the opening, so the bottom latch still engages properly. It restores bottom latching on the supported Sargent devices rather than changing how the push bar works.
3) Is the Sargent 653 a genuine OEM part or an aftermarket strike?
It is an authentic Sargent component built to original equipment specification, so the fit and function match the factory strike on the supported devices. That matters on fire exit hardware, where substituting a non-OEM part can put the listed assembly in question.
4) Do I need to modify the door or threshold to install the Sargent 653 strike?
No modification is called for. The 653 is supplied as an installation-ready replacement for the supported Sargent exit device series, so it drops in as the alternate bottom strike on those devices.
5) Is the Sargent 653 strike suitable for a school or hospital with heavy exit door traffic?
Yes. It is a commercial-grade part, and typical applications include educational facilities, healthcare institutions, office buildings, retail, industrial and warehouse facilities, government buildings, and multi-tenant residential. For a facility standardizing on Sargent 12-8700 or 12-9700 devices, it is the bottom strike to keep on the shelf.
6) What finish does the Sargent 653 bottom strike come in?
One finish is offered, listed as Standard, so there is no finish selection to make when ordering the 653. If you are matching visible trim on a storefront or lobby opening, note that the bottom strike sits at the threshold and is largely out of sight once installed.
