Adams Rite 8801-MRL-36 Rim Mlr Exit Device

Product Description

The ADAMS RITE 8801-MRL-36 is a rim-mount MLR exit device designed for single-door egress applications in commercial and institutional buildings. Rim exit devices mount directly to the face of the door and engage a strike on the door frame, providing a reliable latching mechanism that releases with push-bar or paddle activation. This unit is sold individually and is installed by licensed locksmiths, door hardware specialists, or commercial contractors working to life-safety code requirements.

The 8801-MRL-36 is suited for commercial interior and exterior single doors where panic hardware is required by code. Typical installations include office buildings, schools, retail spaces, and light industrial facilities where a rim-style exit device meets the egress hardware specification. The 36-inch designation indicates the device is sized for 36-inch wide door applications.

Key Features

• Rim-mount design installs directly on door face without through-door rod assemblies
• MLR (Mullion or Rim Latch) mechanism provides positive door latching on release
• Sized for 36-inch door width
• Single-unit packaging for individual door hardware replacement or new installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style rim exit device for commercial single-door applications requiring panic or emergency egress hardware rated for 36-inch door widths.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified locksmith or commercial door hardware technician familiar with ANSI/BHMA exit device standards and local life-safety codes. Ensure the door and frame are properly aligned before mounting and that the strike is positioned for full latch engagement. Disengage all power to any electrified hardware associated with the door prior to service. Do not modify the device body or latch mechanism, as alterations may void listings and compromise egress compliance.
