    Sargent 8888E 10B – Frequently Asked Questions

    1) Is the Sargent 8888 available fire rated for a fire door assembly?
    Yes, fire rated is a build option on the 8888, so you specify fire rated or non-rated when you order. On a fire rated opening the device must be the rated version and it cannot be dogged down, since a fire exit device has to latch every time the door closes. Pair it with a fire rated mullion such as the Sargent 12-980 rather than a standard 980.
    2) Does the Sargent 8888 come with the outside trim, or is that ordered separately?
    Device and trim are separate line items. The 8888 chassis ships on its own and the outside function comes from the trim you pair with it: 700 ET electronic controls, 88 lever and rose trim, or a pull trim. Seven functions are available and which one you get is decided entirely by that trim choice, so an order with no trim on it is an exit only device.
    3) What do I have to choose on the order form for a Sargent 8888?
    Four things beyond the trim: length (32, 36, 42 or 48 inch), fire rated or not, finish, and the cylinder. On the cylinder you pick Standard or LC less cylinder, LC being the one to take if you are supplying your own cores to match an existing keying system. There is also a 16 cylinder lockdown option, yes or no.
    4) The Sargent 8888 will not work on my wood door - what rim exit device will?
    The Sargent 8888 is specified for metal doors and is not wood door compatible. For a wood door in a rim application, the Adams Rite 8700 Series 30 inch narrow stile rim exit device is wood door compatible, and the Adams Rite 3700 Series 30 inch is a fire rated Grade 1 narrow stile rim device that is also wood door compatible. Both are narrow stile chassis, so check the stile width and the door thickness on the wood leaf before you order.
    5) What is the closest wide stile Grade 1 rim exit device to the Sargent 8888 if I need to match an existing opening?
    For a wide stile rim application at Grade 1, the Von Duprin 22-3FT is a 36 inch non-handed 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 for 1-3/4 inch doors that accepts trim. The Sargent 8888 is a wide stile rim device carrying ANSI/BHMA A156.15 Grade 1 in 32, 36, 42 and 48 inch sizes, and its function is set by the trim you pair with it, so if the opening already runs a lever or pull trim the ED5200 is the peer that also accepts trim, while the 22-3FT is the pushpad match on hardware width.
    6) My door has a narrow aluminum stile - what rim exit device should I use instead of the Sargent 8888?
    The Sargent 8888 is built for wide stile applications, so on a narrow aluminum stile the device to specify is a narrow stile rim unit. The Adams Rite 8800 Series 30 inch narrow stile rim exit device covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, the Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a Grade 1 36 inch narrow stile rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors that accepts trim, and the Falcon 19-R is a Grade 1 36 inch narrow stile exit only rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors. Confirm the stile width the pushpad chassis needs before ordering.
    7) Which rim exit devices are fire rated if the Sargent 8888 configuration I need is not?
    The Sargent 8888 is offered in both fire rated and non fire rated builds, so a fire rated 8888 is the first thing to confirm. If a fire rated unit is what the opening requires, the Dexter ED1000 Series fire rated rim exit device is Grade 1 and fire rated, the Marks USA M9900F is a fire rated exit only rim device in 36 inch and 48 inch, the Orca OED85 is a 36 inch fire rated exit only rim device, and the Arrow FS1250 is a fire rated 32 inch rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors. A fire rated opening also rules out dogging, so the device has to be ordered fire rated rather than field converted.
    8) Can I use an SDC exit bar in place of the electrified Sargent 8888?
    They solve access control differently. The Sargent 8888 is a rim exit device with a latch, available with 120VAC, 24VAC/DC and 12VDC power and concealed wiring, and it secures the door on its own latch. The SDC MSB550 Series 36 inch unit is a mechanical switch bar that releases an electromagnetic lock, and the SDC PSB560 SureExit is a 36 inch pressure sense bar with tri-failsafe technology - both are request-to-exit bars that fit narrow or wide stile and depend on a separate maglock to hold the door. If you want a latching device with electrified trim instead, the SDC S6136 Spectra is a 36 inch electrified rim exit device for a 4 inch wide stile on 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Dormakaba E2103 is an electrified 36 inch rim device with 4908A classroom trim.
    9) Are the Adams Rite EX88 and the Sargent 8888 the same device because of the 88 in the model number?
    No - the similar numbering is coincidence. The Sargent 8888 is a wide stile rim exit device in the 8800 Series, non-handed, Grade 1, with function set by trim. The Adams Rite EX88 is an interlocking rim exit device in the EX88 Series with a narrow stile design at Grade 1, and the Adams Rite 8800 Series 30 inch is a separate narrow stile rim device for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. Sargent trim and mullions do not carry over to the Adams Rite chassis, so order by the full manufacturer part number rather than the series digits.
    10) What is a comparable wide stile rim exit device to the Sargent 8888 from another brand?
    Several sit in the same class. The Von Duprin 22 Series is a Grade 1 non-handed wide stile pushpad rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Corbin Russwin ED5200 is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device that accepts trim, as the 8888 does. The BEST Precision 2101 and the TownSteel ED1100 are also wide stile rim devices. What separates the 8888 from those is the electrified trim path with concealed wiring, so if the opening needs access control integration the substitution is not one for one.
    11) Do I need to specify handing when ordering the Sargent 8888?
    No handing to specify. The 8888 is non-handed and reversible, so one device covers left hand and right hand openings. That is worth knowing if you are stocking spares for a building with doors swinging both ways: one part number fits either.
    12) Should I order the Sargent 8888 less cylinder?
    Take LC less cylinder when the building is already on a keyway you have to match, or when you are supplying interchangeable cores from your own stock. Order Standard when there is no existing keying system to match and you want the device complete. The 16 cylinder lockdown feature is a separate yes or no choice on top of either.
    13) What finishes does the Sargent 8888 exit device come in?
    Twelve, spanning brass, bronze, stainless and painted. Brass and bronze: 03 bright brass, 04 satin brass, 09 bright bronze, 10 satin bronze, 10B oil rubbed dark oxidized satin bronze, 10BE, 10BL, and 20D dark statuary bronze. Stainless: 32 bright and 32D satin, 32D being the usual choice for matching commercial openings. Painted: BSP black suede and WSP white suede powder coat, which are what to use when the device has to disappear against a dark or white frame.
    14) Is the Sargent 8888 Grade 1?
    Yes, Grade 1, which is the heavy duty commercial classification and the level normally specified for schools, hospitals and high traffic public buildings. If a spec calls for Grade 1 rim hardware, the 8888 meets it.
    15) What is the difference between a rim exit device like the Sargent 8888 and a vertical rod device?
    A rim device such as the 8888 latches into a single strike on the frame at the lock edge. That makes it the simplest install and the easiest to service, and it is the right pick for a single door or for a pair with a removable mullion. A vertical rod device latches at the head and sill instead, which is what you need on a pair with no mullion, at the cost of rods to align and adjust. Concealed vertical rod versions, like the Hager 4501, hide the rods inside the door and require a door prepped for them.
    16) I need one exit device family for a whole building. Does the Sargent 8888 cover single doors, pairs and card reader openings?
    It does, which is the reason facilities standardize on it. One non-handed chassis covers every swing, four lengths cover 32 to 48 inch leaves, fire rated and non-rated build from the same series, pairs are handled with a 980 family mullion, and openings needing access control take the electrified version in 120VAC, 24VAC/DC or 12VDC. Function is set by trim, so a storeroom door and a classroom door use the same device with different trim on the outside.
    17) I only need free egress with no outside trim - is there a simpler alternative to the Sargent 8888?
    Yes. The 8888 is a multi-function device whose function is set by the trim you select, so if nothing is going on the outside of the door an exit only device does the same job with fewer parts to specify. The Corbin Russwin ED2200 is a 36 inch Grade 1 exit only rim device, the Detex 10 Advantex is a 36 inch wide stile extra heavy duty Grade 1 rim device, and the TownSteel ED1100 is a 36 inch heavy duty Grade 1 wide stile panic rim device. All three keep the wide stile pushpad format on a 36 inch door.
    18) I need a crossbar exit device rather than a pushpad - what替代 options are there for the Sargent 8888?
    The Sargent 8888 is a pushpad style rim device. If the building standard is a crossbar, the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 48 inch crossbar rim exit device for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the CRL Jackson 1095 Series is a 48 inch crossbar rim panic device in a wide stile exit only configuration. The CRL Jackson 1095P is the same series in a paddle format if the crossbar is not required.
    19) What is the difference between the Sargent 8888 and the Detex Advantex 00 dummy device?
    They are not interchangeable. The Sargent 8888 is a working rim exit device with a latch and seven functions determined by trim selection. The Detex Advantex 00 Series is a super-heavy-duty dummy exit device with a wide stile design at Grade 1 - it matches the look of an active device on the inactive leaf but does not latch or release. Use the dummy only where no egress function is required at that leaf.
    20) For a 48 inch opening, what rim exit devices compare to the Sargent 8888?
    The Sargent 8888 covers 32, 36, 42 and 48 inch sizes. At 48 inches the comparable rim devices include the Dormakaba 9300 Series 48 inch wide stile panic rim device, exit only, Grade 1 heavy duty for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors; the Corbin Russwin ED3200 Grade 1 48 inch crossbar rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors; the Marks USA M9900F 48 inch fire rated exit only rim device; and the Dexter ED1000 Series 4FT Grade 1 rim exit device. The 8888 is the one of that group with trim-selected function and electrified options.
