Sargent 97-0392 EN – Frequently Asked Questions

1) I just need to replace a dented cover on a Sargent panic bar. Do I have to buy a whole new exit device?
No. The 97-0392 is sold as a standalone replacement top cover for the 12-8700 Series, so a cover that is dented, scratched, worn, or missing can be swapped out without replacing the device itself. The latching mechanism and chassis stay in place.
2) What finishes does the Sargent 97-0392 top cover come in?
Seven finishes, so the replacement cover can be matched to the rest of the device and the other openings in the building: 03 bright brass clear coated, 04 satin brass clear coated, 10 satin bronze clear coated, 10B dark oxidized satin bronze oil rubbed, 32 bright stainless steel, 32D satin stainless steel, and EN sprayed aluminum enamel. For a fleet of doors, 32D and EN are the usual commercial choices.
3) Is the 97-0392 a genuine Sargent part or an aftermarket cover?
It is a Sargent part supplied within the Sargent exit device parts line, built to OEM specification for a direct fit on the 12-8700 Series. That matters on institutional hardware programs where a spec calls for factory components rather than aftermarket substitutes.
4) What does the top cover on a Sargent 12-8700 exit device actually do?
It is the outer housing that runs the length of the device over the push rail mechanism. It shields the internal components from dirt and impact and carries the visible finish of the device, so a missing or crushed cover leaves the mechanism exposed and the opening looking unfinished. Replacing it with the 97-0392 returns the device to proper operating condition and appearance.
5) Is the Sargent 97-0392 top cover rated for commercial traffic?
Yes. The 97-0392 is a commercial-grade component, built to the same standard as Sargent factory-installed hardware, and it is used in offices, schools, hospitals, retail, warehouses, government buildings, and multi-tenant residential. The aluminum body is light but holds up to the handling an exit device cover takes in high-traffic openings.
