    Sargent 8506E 32D – Frequently Asked Questions

    1) What does storeroom function mean on a Sargent 8506 exit device?
    Storeroom function means the outside trim is always locked. Key retracts the latch for momentary entry only, the lever or pull never stays unlocked, and the pushpad always gives free egress from inside. That is the right choice for mechanical rooms, stockrooms, IT closets and any restricted back-of-house opening where you do not want staff leaving it passage.
    2) Do I need to specify handing when ordering a Sargent 8506?
    Only if you are taking lever trim. The device itself is ordered by size and finish, but ET lever trim needs a hand called out, either RHR (right hand reverse) or LHR (left hand reverse). Exit devices are always reverse bevel, so stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your right it is RHR. Order it exit only with no trim and handing does not come into it.
    3) Can I put the Sargent 8506 on a wood door?
    No. The 8506 is not rated for wood door application. If you have a wood leaf, look at the Adams Rite 8700 or 3700 Series narrow stile rim devices, both of which are listed as wood door compatible.
    4) The Sargent 8506 will not work on my wood door - what narrow stile rim device will?
    The Sargent 8506 is not rated for wood doors. Among narrow stile rim devices, the Adams Rite 8700 Series 30 inch and the Adams Rite 3700 Series 30 inch are both listed as wood door compatible, both Grade 1 narrow stile rim devices with starwheel interlocking. The 3700 is fire rated; the 8700 is not. Choose the 3700 if the opening is a fire door assembly.
    5) What is the closest narrow stile Grade 1 rim exit device to the Sargent 8506 from another manufacturer?
    The Corbin Russwin ED4200 is the nearest equivalent: a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device that accepts trim, in a 36 inch size for 1-3/4 inch doors. Like the Sargent 8506, it is a narrow stile rim device rated Grade 1 and not rated for wood doors. The TownSteel ED3700 and ED8900 are also Grade 1 narrow stile rim devices in 36 inch, both heavy duty. The 8506 carries storeroom function with ET lever trim options; the ED4200 is described as exit only or accepts trim, so trim is specified separately.
    6) I need a fire rated rim exit device - can I use the Sargent 8506?
    The Sargent 8506 is a narrow design rim device offered in storeroom function; for a fire labeled opening, the Adams Rite 3700 Series 30 inch is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device carrying a fire rating. Other fire rated rim options include the Dexter ED1000-R-F-EO Grade 1 and the Arrow FS1250 in 32 inch, plus the Marks USA M9900F in 36 and 48 inch, though those are exit only and do not offer lever trim the way the 8506's ET trim range does. Fire rated devices also cannot be dogged.
    7) What narrow stile rim devices look like alternatives to the Sargent 8506 but are not direct substitutes?
    A few items sit close to the Sargent 8506 in a search but do not do the same job. The SDC MSB550 in 36 inch is a mechanical switch bar that releases an electromagnetic lock rather than a latching rim device, and the SDC PSB560 SureExit is a pressure sense bar - neither latches the door the way the 8506's rim bolt does. The Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar for 2-1/4 inch doors. The Detex 00 Advantex is a dummy exit device with no latching at all. And the Hager 4601 in 36 inch, while Grade 1 narrow stile, is a concealed vertical rod device requiring door prep the 8506 does not.
    8) What device lengths does the Sargent 8506 come in, and how do I pick one?
    Four lengths: 32, 36, 42 and 48 inches. Match the rail to the door leaf width so the pushpad covers roughly half to most of the door face. A 36 inch leaf takes the 36 inch device, a 48 inch leaf the 48 inch. If you are adding the AL alarmed option, that requires a 36 inch minimum door width.
    9) What lever styles are available for the Sargent 8506 outside trim?
    Eight ET trim lever designs: A, B, E, F, J, L, P and W. Pick the one that matches the lever design already used on the rest of your openings so the exterior hardware reads consistently. There is also an exit device only option if the outside face gets a pull or nothing at all.
    10) Is the Sargent 8506 Grade 1, and is it OK for a high traffic entrance?
    Grade 1, the highest ANSI/BHMA durability tier for exit hardware, and Sargent rates the 8506 heavy duty with a high traffic rating. Schools, hospital corridors and retail entries are within what it is built for. It is also ADA compliant for operating force and hardware height.
    11) My opening has a wide stile aluminum door. Should I still use the 8506?
    A narrow stile device like the 8506 will mount on a wider stile, but you are giving up pushpad coverage and the mounting pattern is sized for the narrow rail. On a wide stile leaf a wide stile device is the cleaner fit: the Corbin Russwin ED5200 at 36 inches accepts trim on 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Von Duprin 22 Series is a non-handed Grade 1 wide stile pushpad rim device for the same thickness.
    12) I only need push-to-exit with no outside trim - is there a simpler device than the Sargent 8506?
    The 8506 is configured with storeroom function and offers ET lever trim in A, B, E, F, J, L, P and W levers, which is more device than an egress-only opening needs. For exit only, the Falcon 19-R in 36 inch and the Falcon 1590EO in 42 inch are Grade 1 narrow stile rim devices for 1-3/4 inch doors with no outside trim, as is the Falcon 1790EO in 42 inch. The BEST Precision 2401 is a non-handed narrow stile exit only rim device. These have no outside cylinder or lever, so they cannot provide keyed entry.
    13) For a heavy traffic entrance, how does the Sargent 8506 compare to other narrow stile devices?
    The Sargent 8506 is Grade 1, heavy duty rated for high traffic commercial use. If you want a step further in duty rating, the Detex 40 Advantex is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device classified extra heavy duty. The Dormakaba QED200 and the Stanley Security QED200 are both Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim devices, the Dormakaba listed as a 36 inch device. The 8506 is the one of these offered in 32, 36, 42 and 48 inch sizes with ET lever trim.
    14) Is there a Grade 2 alternative to the Sargent 8506 narrow design rim device?
    The Sargent 8506 is a Grade 1 device. If the specification allows a lower grade, the Cal-Royal 5000 in 36 inch and Cal-Royal 5500 in 48 inch are Grade 2 heavy duty rim exit devices, and the Cal-Royal A9800 in 36 inch and A9820 in 48 inch are also listed Grade 2 heavy duty, exit only. None of these are listed as narrow stile, so confirm your stile width before substituting - the 8506 is engineered for narrow stile openings where a wider chassis will not fit.
    15) Is a crossbar device an option instead of the Sargent 8506?
    The Sargent 8506 is a push rail narrow design rim device with quiet rim bolt operation. If your building standard calls for a crossbar look, the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 crossbar rim device in 48 inch for 1-3/4 inch wide stile doors, and the CRL Jackson 1095 in 48 inch is a crossbar rim panic device for wide stile, exit only. Both are wide stile, so they are not a fit for the narrow stile openings the 8506 is built for.
    16) What finishes does the Sargent 8506 rim exit device come in?
    Twelve finishes: 03 bright brass, 04 satin brass, 09 bright bronze, 10 satin bronze, 10B oil rubbed dark oxidized satin bronze, 10BE and 10BL dark oxidized satin bronze variants, 20D dark statuary bronze, 32 bright stainless, 32D satin stainless, plus BSP black and WSP white suede powder coat. 32D satin stainless is the usual default on commercial storefront; the BSP and WSP powder coats are what to order when the device has to disappear into a black or white anodized frame.
    17) Is the Sargent 8506 quieter than a crossbar panic device?
    The 8506 uses a single point rim bolt latching mechanism that Sargent builds for quiet operation, which is why it gets specified in offices, libraries and healthcare corridors where slamming hardware is a complaint. A crossbar device like the CRL Jackson 1095 or the Corbin Russwin ED3000 is a different mechanism entirely and is more common on service and back-of-house openings.
