Sargent & Greenleaf 2890-P-0000-S2-EXIT – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the S&G 2890C exit only panic bar be converted later to allow entry from the outside?
No. The 2890C Type X exit only configuration is egress only and cannot be modified into a non-exit-only device. It ships without a combination lock, so there is no outside control at all, push the bar and the door opens from the secure side. If the opening needs controlled re-entry, you need one of the other 2890C configurations built for a combination lock rather than this one.
2) Is the Sargent & Greenleaf 2890C panic bar approved for SCIF doors?
It is built to Federal Specification FF-L-2890C, which is the spec written for SCIF egress hardware, and it is used on SCIFs for U.S. agencies, the Department of Defense, defense contractor sites and military bases. It is compatible with both GSA-approved combination locks, though this exit only version is supplied without one.
3) Do I have to order a left or right hand version of this S&G panic bar?
No handing to specify. The 2890C is non-handed and field reversible, so one part number covers left and right hand openings. For a property manager or facilities group standardizing across many doors, that means a single stocked device covers the whole building.
4) Will the S&G 2890C panic bar work on a fire rated door?
Yes. The 2890C carries a 3-hour UL fire rating, which S&G states is the highest in this segment, and it is listed to UL Fire 10B and 10C. It also meets UL 305 for panic hardware and NFPA 101 Life Safety.
5) Does this S&G panic bar come with a strike, and can it be used on a pair of doors?
The 2890C uses a heavy-duty surface mounted strike with an integral roller, and multiple strike options are offered for in-swing, out-swing and double-door applications, all of them pinch-proof. Confirm which strike suits your opening when you place the order, since the strike choice is what adapts the device to swing direction and to a pair.
6) How much room do I need on the door and in the corridor for the S&G 2890C panic bar?
The device measures 36 inches wide, 14.49 inches high and 3.33 inches deep. The 3.33 inch figure is what you check against your door swing clearance and any adjacent wall or return, and the 36 inch width is what determines whether it suits your door leaf width.
7) If I am outfitting several SCIF openings, will the different 2890C configurations install the same way?
They will. All ten 2890C configurations are built on the same modular platform, so the install and prep are standardized across a facility with multiple openings. That is the reason to buy the family as a whole rather than mixing device brands door to door.
