Sargent WD8674E 10BE – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does fail secure mean on the WD8674, and what happens when the power drops?
Fail secure means the outside lever trim stays locked when power is removed. Access control energizes the device to allow entry from the outside; kill the power and the outside trim goes rigid again. Egress is never affected, the push rail always retracts the bolts from the inside. If you need the outside trim to unlock on power loss (common on some stair and elevator lobby doors), fail secure is the wrong function and you want a fail safe device instead.
2) Do I have to specify handing on a Sargent WD8674?
Yes, handing is required and it is not field reversible on the order form. You pick either RHR (right hand reverse) or LHR (left hand reverse). Exit devices are always reverse bevel since the door swings out of the space, so determine hand from the outside of the door. If you want a non-handed wide stile mortise device instead, the Von Duprin 9875 and 8875 crossbar devices are listed non-handed.
3) Can I use the WD8674 on a fire rated door?
Yes. Order the Fire Rated (Less Dogging) configuration. Fire rated devices cannot have mechanical dogging, so the push rail will latch on every cycle. The fire rated build uses the 650 top strike and 606 bottom strike. If you want the rail to be held down for daytime free passage, you need the Standard (non fire rated) configuration, or one of the electric dogging options.
4) What door widths does the WD8674 cover, and do I get it cut to size?
Rails are offered in four sizes, E, F, J and G, spanning door widths from 24 to 48 inches, and orderable lengths run 32, 36, 42 and 48 inches. Sargent will factory cut the rail to the exact door width when you specify it, which is the cleaner route than trimming on site. One note for the alarm option: AL requires a minimum 36 inch door width, so it is not available on the narrower openings.
5) Is the WD8674 available in 12V or 24V?
Both. Voltage is a required selection, 12VDC or 24VDC, so match it to the power supply and the rest of the access control on that opening. Verify the supply's current capacity as well as its voltage before you wire in, particularly if you are also running an electric option like remote latch retraction on the same circuit.
6) What should I use instead of the Sargent WD8674 on a narrow stile aluminum storefront door?
The WD8674 is built for wide stile doors with a 4-1/2 inch minimum stile, so it will not fit an aluminum storefront stile. For narrow stile mortise applications, the Adams Rite 8400 Series is a Grade 1 life-safety narrow stile mortise exit device for aluminum doors, and the Von Duprin 5575 is a Grade 1 narrow stile crossbar mortise lock device for 1-3/4 inch doors, field reversible. Both the 8400 and the 5575 are listed as non fire rated, so confirm the opening does not require a fire label.
7) What is a comparable Grade 1 wide stile mortise exit device if the opening does not need electrification?
The Sargent WD8674 is a Grade 1 electrified fail secure device, so if the opening has no access control power, a mechanical wide stile mortise device covers it. The Corbin Russwin ED5600AL is a Grade 1 three hour fire rated mortise exit device for 1-3/4 inch doors, supplied exit only or for use with classroom or passage lever trim. The Falcon 25-M-EO is a Grade 1 wide stile mortise device for 1-3/4 inch doors in an exit only function. Both are purely mechanical, so neither offers the latch monitoring, electric dogging or latch retraction functions that the WD8674 carries.
8) Is the Von Duprin 9875 a direct substitute for the Sargent WD8674?
Not a like for like swap. 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 listed as not fire rated and not wood door compatible. The Sargent WD8674 is a concealed vertical rod device with fail secure electrified operation, handed RHR or LHR, for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, and is offered in a fire rated less dogging configuration. If the opening needs a fire label or an electrified function, the 9875 does not cover it; if it is a mechanical non-rated mortise opening, the 9875 is a straightforward wide stile alternative.
9) Should I use a concealed vertical rod device like the WD8674 or a surface vertical rod?
Concealed vertical rod runs the rods inside the door, so the face of the door stays clean and there is nothing exposed to get kicked or vandalized. The tradeoff is that the door has to be prepped for concealed rods, which usually means ordering a new hollow metal door or a factory prepped one. A surface vertical rod device mounts to the face of an existing door and is the practical retrofit when the door is not already prepped. Both latch top and bottom, so either secures a pair of doors without a center mullion.
10) What lever trim options come with the Sargent WD8674, and is trim included?
Trim is a separate selection. You can order the device with ET trim in eight lever designs (A, B, E, F, J, L, P and W levers), or pick None to get the exit device only, which is the right call when the outside is push-pull or when you already have trim on hand. Since this is the fail secure electrified device, the ET trim is the part that gets unlocked by the access control system.
11) Can I get a latchbolt monitor or electric dogging on the Sargent WD8674?
Yes, both are option suffixes. The electric options are AL alarmed, 53 latchbolt monitor switch, 54 internal micro switch in the ET control, 55 signal switch in rail, 56 remote dogging / latch retraction, 58 electric dogging and 59 Electroguard. Also available are BT Beacon, PL SARGuide photoluminescent, and TL illuminated touchpad. Note that if you are ordering the fire rated build, dogging options are off the table since fire doors must latch on every close.
12) What mounting height does the WD8674 push rail install at?
Standard centerline is 41 inches from the finished floor. A 38 inch centerline is also available, which is what you specify for elementary schools and where you want the rail lower for smaller occupants and accessibility.
13) I need a wide stile mortise exit device but not an electrified one. What else does ZenSupply carry?
Several mechanical wide stile mortise devices are available. The Corbin Russwin ED5600AL is a Grade 1 3-hour fire rated mortise device for 1-3/4 inch doors, exit only or with classroom or passage lever trim. The Falcon 25-M-EO is a Grade 1 exit-only wide stile device for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Adams Rite 3300 Series is a Grade 1 fire rated wide stile mortise device that works on wood as well as hollow metal. The Von Duprin 9875 and 8875 are Grade 1 non-handed wide stile devices, but both are listed as not wood door compatible.
14) What is a simpler exit only alternative to the Sargent WD8674 for an opening with no outside trim?
The WD8674 can be ordered exit device only or with ET lever trim in A, B, E, F, J, L, P or W levers. If the door never needs outside access, dedicated exit only devices are simpler to specify: the Falcon 25-M-EO is a Grade 1 wide stile mortise device for 1-3/4 inch doors supplied exit only, the Detex 30 Series Advantex is a Grade 1 wide stile mortise device offered device only in an exit only function, and the BEST Precision 2301 is a mortise exit device, exit only, with heavy wrought construction. The Detex 30 is listed as not wood door compatible.
15) What is the difference between the Sargent WD8674 and the Von Duprin 9475/9575 Impact Series?
Both are Grade 1 wide stile mortise lock exit devices. The Von Duprin 9475/9575 Impact Series uses a recessed push pad and is listed as not fire rated. The Sargent WD8674 uses a concealed vertical rod arrangement with 650 top strike and 606 bottom strike, is available in a fire rated less dogging configuration, and is a fail secure electrified device with options for latchbolt monitoring, electric dogging and remote latch retraction. Choose the Impact Series where abuse resistance on a mechanical non-rated opening is the priority, and the WD8674 where the opening is tied into access control.
16) Is the Adams Rite 8300 an equivalent to the Sargent WD8674 on a fire rated opening?
No. The Adams Rite 8300 Series is a Grade 1 life-safety wide stile mortise exit device for wood and hollow metal doors, but it is listed as not fire rated. Within the same family, the Adams Rite 3300 Series is the fire-rated Grade 1 wide stile mortise device. The Sargent WD8674 is offered in a fire rated less dogging configuration with 650 top strike and 606 bottom strike, so on a labeled opening compare it to the 3300 rather than the 8300.
17) Which wide stile mortise exit device is non-handed if I want to stock one part for both hands?
The Sargent WD8674 is ordered handed, as RHR or LHR. If you would rather stock a single non-handed unit, the Von Duprin 8875-3FT and the Von Duprin 9875-3FT are both Grade 1 wide stile mortise devices listed as non-handed, and the Von Duprin 5575-3ft is field reversible in the narrow stile configuration. All three are listed as not fire rated, so they suit non-labeled openings.
18) Is the Sargent WD8674 Grade 1, and will it match the finishes on the rest of my doors?
Grade 1, which is the heavy duty commercial classification and what most institutional specs call for. Finishes run twelve deep: 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, 32 bright stainless, 32D satin stainless, plus BSP black and WSP white suede powder coat. For standardizing across a building, 32D satin stainless is the usual commercial default.
