    Sargent 8813E 32D – Frequently Asked Questions

    1) What does classroom function mean on a Sargent 8813 exit device?
    Classroom function on the 8813 means the outside lever trim is locked or unlocked by key from the outside, and the inside push rail always allows free egress. Staff can lock the door down without stepping into the corridor being the issue only if the trim is keyed that way, so the key controls the outside lever while exit is never blocked. That is the arrangement schools specify for corridor and classroom doors.
    2) Is the Sargent 8813 fire rated for a labeled classroom door?
    Fire rated, yes. The 8813 carries UL10C Fire and UL305 Panic listings, and it is ANSI/BHMA A156.3 Grade 1. That combination is what a labeled corridor or stair door in a school needs. Note that fire-rated openings do not permit dogging, so plan the hardware accordingly.
    3) What size Sargent 8813 do I order for a 36 inch door?
    Device length is ordered by door width, and the 8813 comes in 32, 36, 42 and 48 inch lengths. A 36 inch leaf takes the 36 inch device. Order the length that matches the actual door width rather than the frame opening.
    4) Do I have to specify handing when ordering a Sargent 8813 with lever trim?
    Handing matters only when you add lever trim. With ET trim selected, specify RHR (right hand reverse) or LHR (left hand reverse). Order the device with no trim (exit only) and there is no handing call to make.
    5) What is the difference between a wide stile and a narrow stile rim exit device?
    Wide stile devices like the Sargent 8813 need a wider door stile to mount the case, which suits hollow metal and standard commercial doors. Narrow stile devices are built for aluminum storefront doors where the vertical rail is only a few inches wide. If your opening is aluminum glass front, look at a narrow stile device such as the Corbin Russwin ED4200 or the TownSteel ED3700, both Grade 1 narrow stile rim devices. Putting a wide stile device on a narrow storefront stile will not physically fit.
    6) What is the closest Grade 1 wide stile rim exit device to the Sargent 8813 from another manufacturer?
    The Von Duprin 22 Series 36-inch rim device is the nearest wide stile peer, listed as non-handed with a wide stile pushpad, Grade 1, for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Corbin Russwin ED5200 is another 36-inch wide stile Grade 1 rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors that accepts trim, which matters if the classroom function on the Sargent 8813 is being reproduced through outside lever trim. The Sargent 8813 itself is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device carrying a Classroom lock function.
    7) The door is an aluminum storefront with a narrow stile. What rim exit device should be used instead of the Sargent 8813?
    The Sargent 8813 is a wide stile device, so a narrow stile opening needs a narrow stile chassis. The Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a 36-inch narrow stile Grade 1 rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors that accepts trim. The Adams Rite 8800 Series 30-inch narrow stile rim device covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. The Falcon 19-R is a 36-inch narrow stile Grade 1 rim device, exit only, for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the TownSteel ED3700 is a 36-inch Grade 1 narrow stile rim device.
    8) Is an electrified exit bar such as the Securitron EMB or SDC pressure sense bar a substitute for the Sargent 8813?
    They are a different class of device. The Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar, and the SDC SureExit PSB560 36-inch is a pressure sense bar with tri-failsafe technology, while the SDC MSB550 36-inch is a mechanical switch bar that releases an electromagnetic lock. Those bars signal or release separate locking hardware rather than throwing a rim latch into a strike. The Sargent 8813 is a single point rim latching device and carries a Classroom lock function with keyed lever trim. If electrification is what is wanted on a true rim latch, the 8813 takes electric options including 56 remote dogging and latch retraction, 58 electric dogging and 59 Electroguard, and the SDC Spectra S6136 is an electrified architectural rim exit device with a 4 inch wide stile for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors.
    9) Which rim exit device from another brand offers a classroom function with electrified trim?
    The Dormakaba electrified 36-inch rim exit device with 4908A trim carries an 08-Classroom function. The Sargent 8813 is a Classroom function device and takes electric options including 54 internal micro switch in ET control, 55 signal switch in rail, 56 remote dogging and latch retraction, 58 electric dogging and 59 Electroguard, with ET lever trim in A, B, E, F, J, L, P and W styles handed RHR or LHR.
    10) Which ET lever trim options are available on the Sargent 8813?
    Eight ET lever designs are offered on the 8813: A, B, E, F, J, L, P and W levers, plus an exit-only option with no outside trim at all. If you are standardizing a building, pick one lever design and carry it across every opening; the trim is what the occupant sees and touches, and mixing designs across a corridor is the thing facilities staff notice first.
    11) I need a fire rated rim exit device but not the Sargent. What else is fire rated?
    Among the fire-rated rim devices carried alongside the 8813, the Dexter ED1000 Series fire rated version is Grade 1, the Arrow FS1250 is a fire-rated 32 inch device, the Marks USA M9900F comes in 36 and 48 inch, and the Orca OED85 is a 36 inch fire rated rim. The Adams Rite 3700 is fire rated and, unlike the others here, wood door compatible. Most of those are catalogued exit only, so if you need keyed outside trim the 8813 with ET lever trim is the one that gives it to you.
    12) Is a Grade 2 rim exit device good enough for a school corridor, or do I need Grade 1?
    For a school corridor taking constant traffic, Grade 1 is what gets specified, and the Sargent 8813 is ANSI/BHMA A156.3 Grade 1. Grade 1 is the highest of the three ANSI/BHMA durability grades and carries the highest cycle and strength requirements. Cal-Royal's 5000 and 5500 rim devices are catalogued Grade 2, which is a lighter-duty tier better suited to lower traffic openings.
    13) Can I order a Sargent 8813 exit device without outside trim?
    Yes. Selecting None for the trim option gives you the exit device only, with no outside lever, which makes the opening exit-only from the secure side. That is the usual call for a rear service door or a stair discharge where nobody needs to come back in through it. For a classroom where staff need keyed re-entry, take one of the ET lever trims instead.
    14) Will the Sargent 8813 fit a 32 inch wide door in an older building?
    Yes, 32 inches is the shortest device length offered, so a narrow leaf is covered. Worth knowing before you order: the AL alarmed electric option requires a 36 inch minimum door width, so on a 32 inch door that option is off the table. The other electric options, including latch retraction and the monitor switches, have no such width restriction stated.
    15) Is the Adams Rite 8800 Series the same thing as the Sargent 8800 Series?
    They share a series number and nothing else. The Sargent 8813 belongs to the Sargent 8800 Series and is a wide stile rim device, Grade 1, Classroom function. The Adams Rite 8800 Series 30-inch is a narrow stile rim exit device with starwheel interlocking, Grade 1, not fire rated, for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors and not wood door compatible. Ordering on the series number alone will bring in the wrong chassis for the door.
    16) The opening is exit only with no outside trim. Is there a simpler device than the Sargent 8813?
    The Sargent 8813 is a Classroom function device, which means it is specified around outside lever trim, and it can be ordered with ET Trim in A, B, E, F, J, L, P or W lever styles or as exit device only. If the outside face never needs to be opened by key or lever, an exit only rim device is the simpler build: the Corbin Russwin ED2200 is a 36-inch Grade 1 wide stile exit only device, the Imperial USA ED-501 is a 36-inch Grade 1 wide stile rim panic device, exit only, and the Orca OED55 is a 36-inch rim device, exit only. The Detex Advantex 10 Series 36-inch is a wide stile Grade 1 extra heavy duty rim device.
    17) What is the difference between the Sargent 8813 and a Grade 2 rim exit device like the Cal-Royal 5000?
    The Sargent 8813 is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3 Grade 1. The Cal-Royal 5000 is a 36-inch wide rim exit device with a touch bar and a Grade 2 chassis, heavy duty, and the Cal-Royal 5500 is a 48-inch wide rim exit device with a push bar, also Grade 2 heavy duty. Neither Cal-Royal is fire rated. Facilities standardizing to a Grade 1 spec on the drawings will need the Grade 1 line; the Grade 2 devices sit at a different cycle and strength tier under A156.3.
    18) Can a concealed vertical rod device be used in place of the Sargent 8813 rim device?
    No, the preps are different. The Sargent 8813 is a single point rim latching device that catches a surface strike on the frame or, on a pair, a mullion. The Hager 4501 Series 36-inch is a Grade 1 concealed vertical rod device with a wide stile pushpad and the Hager 4601 Series 36-inch is a Grade 1 concealed vertical rod narrow stile device; both latch top and bottom through rods concealed in the door, which requires a door built for that prep. A rim device cannot be swapped into a concealed vertical rod door, or the reverse, without changing the door.
    19) What rim exit device covers a 48 inch door opening besides the Sargent 8813?
    The Sargent 8813 is built in 32, 36, 42 and 48 inch sizes. Among peers at the wide end, the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a 48-inch Grade 1 crossbar rim device, wide stile, for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Dormakaba 9300 Series 48-inch is a Grade 1 wide stile panic rim device, exit only, heavy duty, for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. The Marks USA M9900F 48-inch is fire rated and exit only, and the CRL Jackson 1095 Series 48-inch is a crossbar rim panic device, wide stile, exit only.
    20) Is a dummy exit device the same as the Sargent 8813 on the inactive leaf of a pair?
    No. The Detex Advantex 00 Series is a super-heavy-duty dummy exit device with a wide stile design and Grade 1 build; a dummy device has the look of a panic bar but no latching mechanism, so it cannot serve as egress hardware. The Sargent 8813 is a single point rim latching device with UL305 Panic listing, which is what an egress leaf requires. On a pair, the 8813 is used with a mullion such as the Sargent 980 removable T-shape aluminum mullion or the fire rated 12-980 steel mullion.
    21) What finishes does the Sargent 8813 exit device come in?
    Twelve finishes are offered on the 8813, which is usually enough to match whatever is already hanging in the building: 03 bright brass and 04 satin brass clear coated, 09 bright bronze and 10 satin bronze clear coated, 10B oil rubbed dark oxidized satin bronze, 10BE and 10BL dark oxidized satin bronze, 20D dark statuary bronze lacquered, 32 bright stainless and 32D satin stainless, plus BSP black and WSP white suede powder coat. 32D satin stainless is the usual institutional default.
    22) What is the difference between a crossbar exit device and the Sargent 8813 pushpad style device?
    The Sargent 8813 is a single point rim latching device with quiet operation. The Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a 48-inch Grade 1 crossbar rim device, wide stile, for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the CRL Jackson 1095 Series 48-inch is a crossbar rim panic device. The CRL Jackson 1095P is the paddle version of the same series and the CRL Jackson 1295 Series is a non-handed push pad rim panic device for 1-3/4 inch doors. Crossbar and paddle actuators present a different look and a different hand motion for the user, which matters when matching devices already on the other doors of a building.
