Installation & Operation

  1. Review manufacturer specifications and verify door preparation requirements including door thickness (1-3/4" to 2-1/4"), stile width (4-1/2" minimum), and door opening height (120" maximum).
  2. Use manufacturer-provided templates to mark mounting hole locations accurately on door and frame surfaces, ensuring proper device centerline positioning at 41" or 38" from finished floor as applicable.
  3. Prepare door and frame by drilling required holes and routing as specified in manufacturer instructions for the center case dimensions of 8-3/8" x 2-5/8".
  4. Install rail system components using the appropriate factory-cut rail size (E, F, J, or G) based on door width, and secure all mounting hardware per manufacturer torque specifications.

Sargent AD8613E 10BE – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the AD8613 classroom function lock from the outside with a key?
Classroom function means the outside lever is locked and unlocked by key, while the pushbar always gives free egress from the inside. The AD8613 is the classroom version of the AD8600 concealed vertical rod device, and to get the outside lever you have to order ET trim with it, since the device can also be bought as exit only.
2) Do I have to specify handing on the Sargent AD8613?
Yes, handing is required and there is no field reversing it at the jobsite. You order the AD8613 either RHR (right hand reverse) or LHR (left hand reverse). Stand outside the opening: if the door swings toward you and the hinges are on your right, it is RHR. If you want a non-handed mortise device instead, the Von Duprin 9875 and 8875 wide stile crossbar devices are listed as non-handed.
3) Can I dog down the Sargent AD8613 so the door stays push-open during school hours?
Hex key dogging comes standard on non-fire rated AD8613 devices. If you want key cylinder dogging instead, that is an order option and a #41 cylinder is supplied with it. For remote control, the 56 remote dogging / latch retraction and 58 electric dogging electric options are available. Fire rated devices never dog.
4) My opening is a narrow stile aluminum storefront door - can I use the Sargent AD8613?
No. The AD8613 requires a 4-1/2 inch minimum stile width on hollow metal doors. For an aluminum narrow stile door, the Adams Rite 8400 Series is a Grade 1 narrow stile mortise exit device built specifically for aluminum doors, and the Von Duprin 5575 is a Grade 1 narrow stile crossbar mortise device for 1-3/4 inch doors that is field reversible. Both are non-fire-rated life safety devices, so confirm the opening does not carry a fire label before specifying either.
5) What is the closest equivalent to the Sargent AD8613 from another manufacturer for a classroom lever trim opening?
The Corbin Russwin ED5600AL is the nearest peer. It is a Grade 1 mortise exit device for wide stile doors that is set up to accept passage or classroom lever trim, the same lever-trim classroom arrangement the AD8613 covers with its ET trim options. Differences to weigh: the ED5600AL is fire rated for 3 hours and is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors, while the AD8613 is built for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch hollow metal doors and carries its latching in concealed vertical rods rather than at the mortise edge. The ED5600AL also ships without lever trim, so the trim is ordered separately; the AD8613 can be ordered with ETA, ETB, ETE, ETF, ETJ, ETL, ETP or ETW lever trim or as device only.
6) Should I use a concealed vertical rod device or a surface vertical rod on a classroom door?
Concealed vertical rod, like the AD8613, runs the rods inside the door so nothing is exposed to abuse or vandalism, and it latches at the head and the threshold. That requires a door prepped for CVR from the factory. If your existing doors are not prepped for concealed rods, you are into a surface device or a mortise exit device instead. Straight mortise lock exit devices in the same class include the Corbin Russwin ED5600AL and the Falcon 25-M-EO, both Grade 1 wide stile.
7) How far off the door does the AD8613 pushbar stick out, and where does it mount?
Projection is 3 inches at rest and 2-1/8 inches when the bar is depressed, with a center case of 8-3/8 x 2-5/8 inches. Mount the device centerline at 41 inches above finished floor for standard work, or 38 inches for elementary schools and accessibility work. That projection number matters when you have a wall, a return, or a second leaf close to the door swing.
8) What strikes come with the Sargent AD8613 concealed vertical rod device?
It ships with the 650 top strike and 606 bottom strike, which cover both panic and fire rated applications. The top bolt is stainless steel. Because it latches at the head and the sill, it will secure a pair of doors without a center mullion.
9) Is the Sargent AD8613 Grade 1, and how does it compare to other mortise exit devices for a school spec?
The AD8613 is Grade 1, commercial duty. Most of the mortise exit devices in the same class carry the same Grade 1 rating, including the Corbin Russwin ED5600AL, the Falcon 25 Series, the Detex 30 Series Advantex, the Adams Rite 3300 and 8300, and the Von Duprin 55, 88, 98 and 94/95 Series. Where the AD8613 differs is that it is a concealed vertical rod classroom device with a keyed lever trim option, while several of those peers are exit only.
10) If I do not need lever trim and just want a push-to-exit device, what should I use instead of the Sargent AD8613?
Exit-only devices are the simpler build. The Falcon 25-M-EO is a Grade 1 wide stile mortise exit device listed as exit only for 1-3/4 inch doors in a 36 inch, 3 ft size. The BEST Precision 2301 is also an exit-only mortise device with heavy wrought construction, and the Detex 30 Series Advantex is a Grade 1 wide stile mortise device supplied device only. None of those provide the outside classroom lever control the AD8613 gives you when ordered with ET trim, so choose them only where the opening never needs keyed entry from the pull side.
11) I need a fire-rated mortise exit device for a wood door - is the Sargent AD8613 the right pick?
The AD8613 is specified for hollow metal doors. For a fire-rated wood door opening, the Adams Rite 3300 Series is a Grade 1 fire-rated mortise exit device listed for both wood and hollow metal doors. The Corbin Russwin ED5600AL is another fire-rated Grade 1 wide stile mortise device, rated 3 hours, for 1-3/4 inch doors. Note the AD8613 uses hex key dogging as standard on non-fire-rated devices only, which is the usual restriction on any labeled opening.
12) What is the difference between the Sargent AD8613 and a Von Duprin 9875 or 8875 mortise exit device?
The AD8613 latches into the head and sill through concealed vertical rods with a 650 top strike and 606 bottom strike, and it is handed - ordered RHR or LHR. The Von Duprin 9875-3FT is a Grade 1 smooth case wide stile mortise exit device, non-handed, for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the 8875-3FT is the crossbar version, also Grade 1, non-handed, 36 inch, for 1-3/4 inch doors. Both Von Duprin models latch at the mortise lock edge rather than top and bottom, and both are listed as not compatible with wood doors and not fire rated.
13) What lever trims and finishes can I get on the Sargent AD8600 concealed vertical rod device?
Lever trim choices are ET trim with the A, B, E, F, J, L, P or W lever, or you can order the device with no trim at all as exit only. Finishes run twelve ways: 03 bright brass, 04 satin brass, 09 bright bronze, 10 satin bronze, 10B oil rubbed dark oxidized satin bronze, 10BE, 10BL, 20D dark statuary bronze lacquered, 32 bright stainless, 32D satin stainless, BSP black suede powder coat and WSP white suede powder coat. For matching existing hardware across a building, 32D is the usual commercial default.
