    Sargent 8875E 32D – Frequently Asked Questions

    1) What does fail-safe mean on the Sargent 8875, and what happens when the power drops?
    Fail-safe on the 8875 means the electric function releases on loss of power, so the opening reverts to free access from the outside trim rather than locking down. That is the behavior you want on an opening that has to stay passable during an outage or an alarm. If your spec calls for the door to stay secure from the outside when power is lost, fail-safe is the wrong function and you need a fail-secure device instead. Either way the push rail always gives free egress, since it is a mechanical panic function.
    2) What voltage do I need to run the Sargent 8875 exit device?
    Order the 8875 as either 12V or 24V; voltage is a required selection, not a field setting. Get the power supply sized for the device before it ships, because the two are not interchangeable after the fact. Wiring is concealed, so plan the door loop or power transfer as part of the frame prep.
    3) Do I have to specify handing when I order a Sargent 8875 exit device?
    The device itself is non-handed, so the push rail goes on either hand. Handing only comes into it if you add ET lever trim, and then you specify RHR or LHR. Pull the door open and stand on the side the hinges are on to determine which; get it wrong and the lever points the wrong way.
    4) Can I get a Sargent 8875 exit device with latch retraction or electric dogging for access control?
    Both are available as ordering options on the 8875, along with monitoring: 56 remote dogging / latch retraction, 58 electric dogging, 53 latchbolt monitor switch, 55 signal switch in the rail, 54 internal micro switch in the ET control, 59 Electroguard, and AL alarmed. Pick these at order time, they are not field-added. If you want the door to sit unlocked and push-pull during business hours on a schedule, 56 or 58 is the option that does it.
    5) The Sargent 8875 will not go on a wood door - which rim exit devices will?
    Among the rim devices carried, the Adams Rite 8700 Series 30 inch narrow stile rim device with starwheel interlocking and the Adams Rite 3700 Series 30 inch fire-rated narrow stile device are the two listed as wood door compatible, both Grade 1. The Sargent 8875 is a wide stile device for metal door openings. Note that both Adams Rite options are narrow stile, so a wood door with a wide stile prep is a different conversation from a straight swap.
    6) Which rim exit devices carry a fire rating if the Sargent 8875 does not suit a fire-rated opening?
    For a fire-rated opening, the Dexter ED1000-R-F-EO is a Grade 1 fire rated rim exit device, the Marks USA M9900F comes in 36 inch and 48 inch fire rated exit only builds with a panic protector end cap, and the Orca OED85 is a 36 inch fire rated rim device. Adams Rite 3700 Series is a 30 inch fire-rated narrow stile rim device, Grade 1, and is the fire-rated option for a narrow stile aluminum door. The Sargent 8875 is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device with an electromechanical function.
    7) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to a Sargent 8875 electrified wide stile rim exit device?
    The nearest peer is the SDC S6136 Spectra S6000 Series electrified architectural rim exit device, a 36 inch wide stile rim device built on a 4 inch stile with a door thickness range of 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. Like the Sargent 8875, it is an electrified rim device intended for wide stile openings rather than a purely mechanical exit bar. Dormakaba's E2103 with 4908A trim is the other electrified rim option, a 36 inch device in an 08 classroom function. The 8875 is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device with an electromechanical lock function, offered in 32, 36, 42 and 48 inch sizes.
    8) If the opening does not need electrified control, what mechanical wide stile rim device replaces a Sargent 8875?
    For a purely mechanical wide stile rim opening, the Von Duprin 22-3FT is a 36 inch non-handed Grade 1 wide stile pushpad rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Corbin Russwin ED5200 is a 36 inch Grade 1 wide stile rim device that accepts trim on 1-3/4 inch doors. TownSteel ED9700 is a 36 inch heavy duty Grade 1 wide stile rim device. All three are mechanical only, so they carry no voltage requirement, where the Sargent 8875 carries an electromechanical lock function and is ordered in 12V or 24V.
    9) The door is an aluminum storefront with a narrow stile - what should I order instead of a Sargent 8875?
    The 8875 is a wide stile device, so a narrow stile aluminum door needs a different family. Adams Rite 8800 Series is a 30 inch narrow stile rim device with starwheel interlocking, Grade 1, for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a 36 inch Grade 1 narrow stile rim device on 1-3/4 inch doors, and TownSteel ED3700 is a 36 inch heavy duty Grade 1 narrow stile rim device. Falcon 19-R is a 36 inch Grade 1 narrow stile exit only device on 1-3/4 inch doors.
    10) What should I use if the opening needs concealed vertical rods rather than a rim device like the Sargent 8875?
    A rim device latches to a strike on the frame at a single point, so a pair of doors without a mullion needs a vertical rod device instead. The Hager 4501 Series is a 36 inch Grade 1 concealed vertical rod exit device with a wide stile pushpad, and the Hager 4601 Series is the 36 inch Grade 1 narrow stile concealed vertical rod version. The Sargent 8875 is a rim device, and for a pair of doors it pairs with a removable mullion such as the Sargent 980 or the fire rated 12-980.
    11) What outside trim can I get with a Sargent 8875, and can I order it without trim?
    Eight ET lever designs are available on the 8875: A, B, E, F, J, L, P and W levers. You can also order it exit only with no outside trim, which is the right call for a stair discharge or a one-way egress door where nobody needs to come back in. Choosing a lever means you also have to state the hand.
    12) Is the Sargent 8875 heavy duty enough for a high traffic school or hospital exit?
    Grade 1, which is the top duty level for exit hardware and the right pick for high-cycle openings in schools, healthcare, and multi-tenant buildings. Peers at the same level include the Von Duprin 22, the Corbin Russwin ED5200, and the Detex 10 Advantex wide stile device. The Cal-Royal 5000 and 5500 are Grade 2, which is a lighter duty step down.
    13) What is a comparable electrified rim exit device if the Sargent 8875 is not the right fit?
    Two close electrified alternatives: the SDC S6136 Spectra, a 36 inch wide stile electrified rim device with a 4 inch stile and a 1-3/4 to 2 inch door thickness range, and the Dormakaba E2103 electrified 36 inch rim device with 4908A trim. The Securitron EMB electromechanical exit bar is a different animal, an exit bar rather than a latching rim device, and it lists a 2-1/4 inch door thickness. SDC's PSB560 pressure sense bar and MSB550 switch bar release an electromagnetic lock rather than latching into a strike, so they only suit an opening built around a maglock.
    14) Does the Sargent 8875 come with a cylinder or do I have to buy one separately?
    A cylinder is included with the 8875. If you are keying the building to an existing system, plan on having the included cylinder replaced or rekeyed to your keyway rather than ordering a second one.
    15) If I only need a plain mechanical push bar and not the electric function, what should I buy instead of the Sargent 8875?
    The 8875 carries an electro-mechanical function, so if there is no access control on the opening you are paying for hardware you will not wire. For a straight mechanical wide stile rim device, the Von Duprin 22 at 36 inch, the Corbin Russwin ED5200 or ED2200, the BEST Precision 2101, the TownSteel ED1100 or ED9700, and the Dormakaba 8300 are all Grade 1 wide stile rim devices. The Dormakaba 9300A at 48 inch also lists a 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range if your door is thicker than standard.
    16) Is an SDC pressure sense bar or switch bar the same thing as a Sargent 8875 exit device?
    They are not the same class of hardware. The SDC PSB560 SureExit is a 36 inch pressure sense bar with tri-failsafe technology and the SDC MSB550 is a 36 inch mechanical switch bar with electromagnetic lock release; both fit narrow or wide stile doors and work by signalling a separate locking device. The Sargent 8875 is a rim exit device with its own latching mechanism and cylinder, in wide stile form. If the door already carries a magnetic lock, the SDC bars release it; if the door needs the latch itself, the 8875 family is the rim device.
    17) What is the difference between the Sargent 8875 and a Grade 2 rim exit device like the Cal-Royal 5000?
    The Cal-Royal 5000 is a 36 inch heavy duty rim exit device with a touch bar on a Grade 2 chassis, and the Cal-Royal 5500 is a 48 inch heavy duty Grade 2 rim device with a push bar; the A9800 and A9820 are also carried at Grade 2. The Sargent 8875 is certified Grade 1. For a facility standardizing on an ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 spec, the Grade 1 wide stile peers are the Dormakaba 8300, the BEST Precision 2101 and the Imperial USA ED-501.
    18) I need a crossbar rim device instead of a push pad - what are the options next to the Sargent 8875?
    For a crossbar rather than a push rail, the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 48 inch crossbar rim exit device on 1-3/4 inch doors, and the CRL Jackson 1095 Series is a 48 inch crossbar rim panic device in wide stile, exit only. The CRL Jackson 1095P is the paddle version of the same family, and the 1295 Series is a non-handed push pad wide stile device for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Sargent 8875 is a wide stile rim device offered in 32, 36, 42 and 48 inch sizes with ET lever trim options or exit device only.
    19) For a high-abuse opening, what heavier-duty rim exit devices sit alongside the Sargent 8875?
    Detex Advantex carries the heaviest duty ratings in the set: the Detex 10 Advantex is a 36 inch wide stile extra heavy duty Grade 1 rim device, and the Detex 40 Advantex is the extra heavy duty narrow stile version. The Detex V4003A/03AN is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device supplied with night latch trim. Heavy duty Grade 1 wide stile alternatives include the Dormakaba 9300A, a 48 inch exit only device for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the TownSteel ED1100. The Sargent 8875 is Grade 1 with an electromechanical function.
    20) Is the Securitron EMB exit bar a substitute for the Sargent 8875?
    The Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar rated for a 2-1/4 inch door thickness. It shares the electromechanical operating principle with the Sargent 8875, but the 8875 is a rim exit device supplied with a cylinder and offered with ET lever trim in A, B, E, F, J, L, P and W lever styles, plus electric options such as latchbolt monitor switch, electric dogging and remote latch retraction. If the opening needs outside lever access through the device, the 8875 configuration covers it; the EMB is the bar alone.
    21) Are there simpler exit-only rim devices to pair with a Sargent 8875 on doors that do not need outside access?
    Yes. On openings where nobody needs to come back in through the door, an exit only device is the simpler build: the Corbin Russwin ED2200 is a 36 inch Grade 1 wide stile exit only rim device, the Hager 4701 Series is a 36 inch standard duty rim device with Grade 1 BHMA certification, the Orca OED55 is a 36 inch exit only rim device, and the Marks USA M9900 is a 36 inch exit only device with a panic protector end cap. The Sargent 8875 itself can be ordered as exit device only or with ET lever trim, so a mixed run can stay within one series.
    22) What finishes does the Sargent 8875 come in to match the rest of my building's hardware?
    Twelve finishes across the 8875: bright brass 03, satin brass 04, bright bronze 09, satin bronze 10, oil rubbed dark bronze 10B, 10BE and 10BL dark oxidized bronze, dark statuary bronze 20D, bright stainless 32, satin stainless 32D, and black or white suede powder coat, BSP and WSP. 32D satin stainless is the usual choice on commercial openings and the one most likely to match existing exit hardware in a school or office building.
