Sargent 97-0006 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Do I have to specify a hand when ordering the Sargent 97-0006 locking slide spring?
Yes, hand matters on this one. The 97-0006 locking slide spring is a hand-specific component, so you need to state left or right when you order it. Order the wrong hand and the spring will not seat correctly in the locking slide assembly, so confirm the device hand at the door before you place the order.
2) What does the Sargent 97-0006 part actually do inside an exit device?
It is the locking slide spring. The 97-0006 restores spring tension to the locking slide inside a Sargent exit device assembly, which is what returns the slide to position so the device locks and releases as it should. If a device is dogging or latching inconsistently and the slide feels slack, this is the service part that addresses it, not a full device replacement.
3) Will the Sargent 97-0006 spring fit exit devices from another brand, like Von Duprin or Precision?
No. The 97-0006 is a genuine Sargent component made to Sargent's own specifications for Sargent exit device assemblies. Springs in the locking slide assembly are not interchangeable across manufacturers, so for a Von Duprin or Precision device you need that maker's own service part.
4) Does installing the 97-0006 locking slide spring require modifying the exit device?
No modification. The spring is made to original Sargent tolerances as a direct replacement, so it drops into the compatible locking slide assembly as-is. You are disassembling the device far enough to reach the slide, swapping the spring, and reassembling, with no drilling or filing.
5) Should I replace the whole exit device or just order the 97-0006 spring?
If the chassis, rail and latch are sound and the fault is slide return or locking slide tension, the spring is the repair, and a hand-matched 97-0006 keeps the existing device on the door. Replace the full device instead when the rail is damaged, the latch is worn, or the opening now needs a different function or a fire rating the current device does not carry. On life-safety exit hardware, a genuine Sargent service part keeps the assembly to its original specification.
6) I manage a building with several Sargent exit devices. Can I stock one 97-0006 spring for all of them?
Not as a single line item. Because the 97-0006 is hand-specific, a mixed set of left-hand and right-hand openings needs both hands carried. Property managers keeping a spares kit usually hold one of each hand so a service call is not held up waiting on the opposite hand.
7) Is the 97-0006 a repair part for commercial exit hardware or for residential doors?
Strictly commercial. Sargent classes the 97-0006 as a commercial replacement part for exit device service work, and it is meant to be installed by a qualified door hardware technician. Typical settings are offices, schools, healthcare, retail, warehouses, government buildings and multi-tenant residential common doors, all places running panic or exit hardware rather than residential locksets.
