Sargent 97-0001 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the 97-0001 dogging key work on my exit device?
The 97-0001 is a genuine Sargent part made to work with compatible Sargent exit devices, so match it to the Sargent series on your door before ordering. It is not represented as fitting other manufacturers' devices, and it only applies to devices that have mechanical dogging in the first place, fire rated exit devices are built without a dogging feature.
2) Do I need a dogging key, or is cylinder dogging a better option for my doors?
A hex-style dogging key like the 97-0001 is the standard mechanical option, cheap to replace and quick to use, but anyone holding a key can dog the door. If you need dogging controlled by your keyway instead, that's a cylinder dogging device ordered on the exit device itself, not an accessory you add later. Also worth noting, if the opening is fire rated, dogging isn't available at all and the door has to latch every time.
3) Is the 97-0001 a door closer part or an exit device part?
It's an exit device part. The 97-0001 is a dogging key for Sargent exit devices, it does nothing on a closer and there's no dogging function on a door closer.
4) I manage a building with several Sargent panic bars, should I buy more than one dogging key?
Most facilities keep spares. One key dogs any compatible Sargent device, so a single key covers a run of matching openings, but keeping a second at the desk and one on the maintenance ring avoids the situation where nobody can un-dog a door at close. The 97-0001 is sold as a replacement part, which is exactly how it is usually bought, to replace the one that walked off.
5) Is the Sargent 97-0001 a commercial-duty part or something light?
Commercial. The 97-0001 is catalogued for commercial door hardware use and intended for environments with repeated daily dogging, offices, schools, hospitals, retail, warehouses, multi-tenant residential and government buildings.
