Sargent 97-2038 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Sargent 97-2038 bottom case assembly fit a Sargent exit device made after November 2002?
No. The 97-2038 bottom case assembly is built for Sargent exit devices manufactured before 11/11/02. Sargent changed the bottom case after that date, so a device built on or after 11/11/02 takes the later part instead. Check the manufacture date on the device before you order this one.
2) Does the Sargent 97-2038 come with the bottom case cover?
No cover is included. The 97-2038 ships as the bottom case assembly only, less cover. If your existing cover is damaged or missing, you will need to source that separately, since this part is sold for component-level replacement rather than as a complete assembly.
3) Is the Sargent 97-2038 a genuine Sargent part or an aftermarket copy?
It is a genuine OEM Sargent component, built to the original design specifications of the parent exit device. For facilities standardized on Sargent exit hardware, that matters: an OEM bottom case assembly keeps the device operating as originally specified rather than introducing an aftermarket tolerance into a life-safety opening.
4) Can I repair a Sargent exit device in place, or do I have to replace the whole device?
Repair in place is the point of this part. The 97-2038 bottom case assembly is a field-serviceable replacement component, so a maintenance tech or locksmith can restore function to an existing pre-11/11/02 Sargent exit device without pulling the unit and rehanging new hardware. That keeps a door out of service for hours rather than days.
5) Is the Sargent 97-2038 bottom case assembly rated for commercial use?
Yes, it is a commercial-grade part. The 97-2038 is catalogued for commercial applications and is used to service exit devices in office buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, retail, warehouses, and government buildings running legacy Sargent hardware.
6) What is a bottom case assembly on an exit device and why would I need to replace one?
The bottom case is the housing at the lower end of the device that carries the internal mechanism. When the case is worn, bent, or the internals no longer hold the pushbar action correctly, replacing that assembly restores the device to proper operation instead of scrapping the whole unit. The Sargent 97-2038 covers that repair on pre-11/11/02 Sargent exit devices.
