Sargent 704-ETL-RHR-26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Which Sargent exit devices does the 704ET trim fit?
The 704ET mounts to the Sargent 8888/8810, 8800, 8900, 8700 and NB-8700, MD8600 and NB-MD8600, AD8600 and NB-AD8600, WD8600 and NB-WD8600, 8500 and AD8500, 8300, MD8400 and NB-MD8400, LP and LR8600, LS8600, HC8800, WS8800, and WS8900 series devices. It bolts through the door to the device chassis, so the device has to be one of those families; it is not a universal trim for another brand's device.
2) Do I need to order the Sargent 704ET handed, or can I flip it in the field?
You still pick a hand on the order, LHR or RHR, but the trim itself is non-handed and field reversible, so a unit that arrives the wrong way round can be converted on site rather than returned. For a stock room carrying spares across a building, that means one trim covers either swing.
3) Does the Sargent 704ET night latch trim come with a cylinder?
Depends which cylinder option you order. Three exist: SFIC prep less core, with a 1-3/4 inch mortise and rim cylinder included, and less that 1-3/4 inch cylinder. KESO and KESO F1 is also offered less core. Only the 1-3/4 inch mortise and rim option ships with the cylinder; the SFIC and KESO versions are prepped and you supply the core to match your keying, which is what most locksmiths want on a keyed system.
4) I need to key the exit doors into our small format interchangeable core system. Will the Sargent 704ET take our cores?
Order the SFIC prep, less core version. It arrives prepped for a small format interchangeable core so your locksmith drops in a core already cut to the building's system, no rekeying of the trim. Sargent's KESO and KESO F1 high security cylinders are the other less-core route if the facility is on that platform. If you are not on an IC system at all, take the 1-3/4 inch mortise and rim cylinder version.
5) Can the Sargent 704ET be wired into an access control system?
No. The 704ET is a mechanical night latch trim with no electrification. If the opening needs a card reader or remote unlock at the outside trim, look at electrified exit trim instead, such as the Command Access ET26, which is Grade 1 and field reversible with 12V/24V operation and fail safe or fail secure options, or the Command Access ET15 and ET25. For a keypad instead of a reader, Dormakaba's E-Plex 201U electronic pushbutton exit trim is the alternative.
6) We have a Von Duprin 98/99 device. Can I use the Sargent 704ET on it?
No. The 704ET through-bolts to Sargent device chassis and its compatibility list is all Sargent series, so it will not land on a Von Duprin device. For a night latch on 22, 55, or 98/99 series Von Duprin devices, the 110MD-NL night latch cylinder assembly is the Von Duprin part for metal and wood doors. On Corbin Russwin ED5000 series devices, the nightlatch escutcheon trim is the VT957ET.
7) What is the equivalent of the Sargent 704ET night latch lever trim in the Corbin Russwin line?
The Corbin Russwin VT957ET is the closest counterpart. It is a nightlatch escutcheon trim in stamped or formed stainless steel built for the ED5000 series of exit devices, so it carries the same key-retracts-latch function as the Sargent 704ET night latch lever trim. The difference that decides the order is the device it mounts to: the 704ET is built for Sargent exit devices including the 8888/8810, 8800, 8900 and 8700 series, while the VT957ET is prepped for Corbin Russwin ED5000 devices. Match the trim to the device already on the door, not to the function alone.
8) What night latch exit trim uses a lever instead of a cylinder pull for Von Duprin devices?
The Von Duprin 110MD-NL is a night latch cylinder assembly trim for metal and wood doors, sized for 22, 55 and 98/99 series exit devices, and it is Grade 1 heavy duty. It gives you the night latch function without a lever, so anyone entering pulls on the device rather than turning a handle. The Sargent 704ET carries the same night latch function on a Grade 1 heavy duty escutcheon with a lever, ordered with a B, J or L lever. If the opening needs a graspable handle on the outside, the lever trim is the one; if it just needs keyed entry on a Von Duprin device, the 110MD-NL cylinder assembly covers it.
9) I need a keyed lever exit trim but the door is not on a Sargent device - what are the options by brand?
Keyed lever escutcheon trims exist across several lines, each prepped for its own device family. The Corbin Russwin VT957ET is a nightlatch escutcheon trim for ED5000 series devices. The Accentra AU-441F is a night latch keyed lever trim with the Augusta lever design. The Dorma YR03R is a wide stile escutcheon trim with an R lever in nightlatch function, less cylinder. The Sargent 704ET fills the same role on Sargent 8888/8810, 8800, 8900 and 8700 series devices. Identify the exit device on the door first, then pick the trim from that manufacturer's line.
10) The outside lever should stay locked but retract the latch by key on a classroom door - is the 704ET right, or do I want a classroom or storeroom trim?
The Sargent 704ET is night latch function: the outside lever does not retract the latch, and a key does. If the outside lever needs to operate the latch once unlocked by key, a classroom or storeroom trim is the correct function instead. The Falcon 510L is a heavy duty classroom function lever trim for 24/25 series devices, the Accentra 446F is a Grade 1 classroom function trim with the Augusta lever, and the Tell EDELT80 is a storeroom function escutcheon lever trim for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. Choose by how the outside lever is meant to behave, then match the trim to the device.
11) Can the 704ET be used where access control needs to unlock the outside trim electrically?
No. The Sargent 704ET is a mechanical, non-electronic night latch trim, so it is unlocked by key only and has no connection to an access control system. For an electrically controlled outside trim, the Command Access ET15, ET25 and ET26 are electrified exit trims with 12V/24V operation and fail safe or fail secure options, the ET26 being Grade 1 with a field reversible design. The Von Duprin E360L-BE-03 is a Grade 1 electric passage trim with the 03 lever in fail safe for 33/35A series devices, and the Falcon 510L-FSA/FSE is an electrified heavy duty lever trim for 25 series devices. Confirm the voltage and the fail state your system requires before ordering.
12) What looks like a substitute for a night latch exit trim but is not?
Passage and blank escutcheon trims look nearly identical on the door and do something different. The Corbin Russwin 3310AET, x810ET and x910ET are Grade 1 passage function trims for the ED300, ED4000 and ED5200S/ED5200/ED5400/ED5800 series, and passage means the lever always retracts the latch with no key control at all. The Falcon 212L is a blank escutcheon lever trim for 20 series devices. The Detex 02BN is a dummy S-lever with a blank escutcheon for Value series devices, and a dummy lever does not move the latch. The Sargent 704ET is night latch function, where a key retracts the latch from the outside. If the door needs to stay secure between key uses, none of the passage or dummy trims will do it.
13) Are there exit trims that accept a small format interchangeable core like the Sargent 704ET?
The Sargent 704ET can be ordered with SFIC prep less core, with KESO/KESO F1 prep less core, or for a 1-3/4 inch mortise and rim cylinder either with or without the cylinder supplied. Among comparable keyed trims, the Design Hardware KIL entry and KIL storeroom trims are Grade 1 flat lever trims built for the Schlage C keyway on 1000 and 2000 series devices, and the Dorma YR03R nightlatch trim ships less cylinder. If the building is keyed on an interchangeable core system, order the trim with the prep and add the cores from your own keying, rather than taking a fixed keyway trim.
14) Is there a lower cost night latch exit trim than the Sargent 704ET if we are not on a Sargent system?
Yes, several brands make night latch trim for their own devices. Dorma's YR03R is a wide stile escutcheon with R lever in nightlatch function, less cylinder. Dexter's ED1500 Series nightlatch trim uses a raised lip pull plate instead of a lever, and Accentra's 121NL and AU-441F cover nightlatch on their devices. Which one you can use is decided by the exit device already on the door, not by preference, since the trim bolts to that device's chassis.
15) Is the Sargent 704ET heavy duty enough for a school or hospital exit door?
Grade 1, heavy duty, and specified for commercial use. What matters as much on high traffic openings is that the escutcheon is through-bolted to the device chassis rather than screwed to the door face, so pulling and prying loads go into the device instead of into sheet metal. That is the construction you want on a main entrance a few hundred people touch a day.
16) Our exit doors are keyed but tenants keep propping them; is a lever trim like the Sargent 704ET the right call at all?
If the outside of the door never needs to be opened by hand, skip the lever. Exit only or dummy trim gives a pull with no operating function, which removes the temptation and the failure point: BEST offers exit only lever trim in the 4900 Series for wide stile and the 2901 for narrow stile, and Von Duprin makes the 230DT dummy trim in 10 gauge steel. Keep the 704ET where authorized staff genuinely need key entry from outside.
17) Do I have to specify anything besides the part number when ordering Sargent 704ET trim?
Four things get specified: handing (LHR or RHR), lever style (B, J, or L), cylinder arrangement (SFIC prep less core, KESO or KESO F1 less core, with 1-3/4 inch mortise and rim cylinder, or less that cylinder), and finish, which is 26D. Get the cylinder line right, because less core and less cylinder both mean a separate order for the cylinder or core, and the Sargent device series on the door has to be one the trim mounts to.
18) What is the difference between a night latch lever trim and a night latch pull trim?
Both retract the latch by key from the outside; the difference is what your hand grabs. The Sargent 704ET is an escutcheon with an easy operating lever handle allowing one-hand operation, ordered with a B, J or L lever. The Dexter ED1500T-PULL-NC is a nightlatch function trim with a raised lip pull plate, and the Design Hardware 2P-03NL is a pull trim with a cylinder hole for 1000R and 2000R devices. A lever is the choice where the opening needs to be operable with a single hand; a pull plate suits service and back-of-house doors where a handle is not wanted.
19) Which exit device lever trims are Grade 1 heavy duty for a high traffic entrance?
The Sargent 704ET is Grade 1 heavy duty with the trim through-bolted to the chassis rather than surface mounted. Among comparable lever trims, the Falcon 510L is heavy duty classroom function for 24/25 series devices, the Pamex E9000 is a Grade 1 storeroom function heavy duty trim with an L3 lever fitting doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Command Access ET26 is a Grade 1 electrified trim with field reversible design, and the Dexter ED1500T is a Grade 1 trim with a regular lever. For standardizing a facility, pick the one whose function matches the opening and whose series matches the exit devices you already run.
20) Does the 704ET need to be ordered handed, or are there non-handed alternatives?
The Sargent 704ET is a non-handed, field reversible design, and it is stocked in both LHR left hand reverse and RHR right hand reverse configurations with B, J and L levers. Among comparable trims, the Command Access ET26 is also described as field reversible. If a job needs one part number to cover openings of both hands, field reversible trim is what keeps the order simple rather than splitting it by handing.
21) What lever styles and finish does the Sargent 704ET trim come in?
Three Sargent lever designs, B, J, and L, all in 26D satin chromium plated over nickel. If the rest of the building is on 26D lever hardware, any of the three will match the finish; the choice is purely lever shape. All three are offered in both LHR and RHR and across the SFIC, KESO, and mortise/rim cylinder options.
