Sargent 28-2024 - Thru bolt package set of 4 bolts for 3828 Rim Exit Device

The Sargent 28-2024 is a high-strength thru-bolt package specifically engineered for the secure installation of Sargent 3828 Series Rim Exit Devices. This set of four heavy-duty bolts ensures a rock-solid, through-the-door connection, which is essential for maintaining the structural integrity of panic hardware in high-traffic commercial environments. Designed for standard 1-3/4" thick doors, these bolts provide the necessary reinforcement for both non-fire-rated (3828) and fire-rated (12-3828) exit devices.

Engineered for Maximum Security and Durability

Using Sargent factory-certified thru-bolts is critical for meeting safety codes and ensuring the longevity of your door hardware.

• Essential Reinforcement: Thru-bolts are highly recommended for use on hollow metal doors without internal reinforcement and are required by code for mineral core wood fire doors (45-90 minute ratings).
• Precision Fit: This specific 28-2024 kit is tailored to the mounting patterns of the 3828 Rim Exit Device, ensuring a flush, professional fit that resists loosening over time.
• Professional Finishes: Available in EN (Aluminum Enamel) and EB (Bronze Enamel) to provide a perfect color match with your existing Sargent 3828 chassis and rail.
• Simple Installation: Each package is furnished with a detailed instruction sheet tailored to your specific exit device model, simplifying the retrofitting or new installation process.
