GENERAL NOTES
Before installing exit device, verify or note the following:
1. Fire exit hardware is to be installed only on fire doors bearing the marking "Fire Door To Be Equipped with Fire
Exit Hardware".
2. Any retrofit or other field modification to a fire rated opening can potentially impact the fire rating of the
opening. The exit device manufacturer makes no representations or warranties concerning what such impact may
be in any specific situation. When retrofitting any portion of an existing fire rated opening, or specifying and
installing a new fire rated opening, please consult with a code specialist or local code official (Authority Having
Jurisdiction) to ensure compliance with all applicable codes and ratings.
3. The door surface must be flat and properly reinforced at the exit device mounting locations. If door is not
reinforced, the door surface may collapse or bow-in, causing malfunction in the exit device operation.
4. Door must be properly fitted and hung.
5. The 3' exit device model can be cut to fit doors from 30 to 36" (762 to 914 mm) in width (refer to section 5 on page 2).
The 4' exit device model can be cut to fit doors from 36 to 48" (914 to 1219mm) in width (refer to section 5 on page 2).
6. Determine door handing (see illustration below). Exit device is handed. If handing change is required refer to handing
instructions below.
7. For wood doors or hollow metal doors use through bolts, and for metal reinforced doors drill & tap and use machine screws.
