Prep Exit Device For Door Size
1)
Prep for door width.
a.
The 4’ exit device will work for openings from widths of 650mm to 1828mm. However, for openings narrower than
1100mm, the device must be cut.
b.
The 3’ exit device will work for openings from widths of 650mm to 1524mm. However, for openings narrower than
890mm, the device must be cut.
c.
The recommended overall length of the exit device, for a standard single door, is equal to the opening width minus
80mm. Cut with a hack saw or metal cutting saw blade and deburr edges (do not grind cut as this may damage the
finish).
2)
Prep for door height.
a.
The 4’x8’ exit device comes out of the box prepped for a door height of 2439mm. For doors shorter than 2439mm in
height, the top rod must be cut down.
i.
To determine the top rod length for a 4’x8’ exit device, first measure the door height and subtract it from
2439mm. Then subtract the answer from 1245mm, this answer is the desired top rod length. Example for
2000mm tall door; 2439-2000=439, 1245-439=806, desired top rod length would be 806mm.
b.
The 3’x7’ exit device comes out of the box prepped for a door height of 2134mm. For doors shorter than 2134mm in
height, the top rod must be cut down.
i.
To determine the top rod length for a 3’x7’ exit device, first measure the door height and subtract it from
2134mm. Then subtract the answer from 940mm, this answer is the desired top rod length. Example for
2000mm tall door; 2134-2000=134, 940-134=806, desired top rod length would be 806mm.
c.
Mark the rod to required length and cut at marked spot. Keep in mind that the rod must be measured from the
threaded portions (DO NOT CUT THE ROD AT THE END WITH INTERNAL THREADS).
d.
Drill cotter key connection hole with a 4.0mm Dia. Drill bit 4.5mm from the end of the rod that was just cut.
