Detex ECL-600 Gray Fire Exit Hardware Long Bar 36-48 in

Product Description

The DETEX ECL-600 GRAY is a Warnock Hersey-listed fire exit hardware device designed for single-door emergency egress applications. It features a long bar touchpad mechanism that spans the door face, allowing fast, code-compliant exit under panic or emergency conditions. The unit carries a fire rating, making it appropriate for fire-rated door assemblies where listed exit hardware is required by code. Installation is handled by licensed locksmiths, door hardware specialists, or commercial contractors working to IBC and NFPA 101 life-safety requirements.

This fire exit hardware is suited for commercial and institutional buildings including offices, schools, warehouses, and assembly occupancies. It is designed to fit door widths ranging from 36 inches to 48 inches, covering the most common single-door frame widths found in commercial construction. The gray finish coordinates with standard hollow-metal door and frame assemblies. It is typically installed on stairwell doors, corridor fire doors, and exterior exit doors where panic hardware is mandated by the authority having jurisdiction.

Key Features

• Warnock Hersey listed for fire-rated door assembly applications
• Long bar touchpad design spans the door width for reliable panic actuation
• Fits door widths from 36 inches to 48 inches
• Gray finish suitable for standard commercial hollow-metal doors

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fire exit hardware replacement or new installation unit for single commercial doors ranging from 36 inches to 48 inches in width that require Warnock Hersey-listed panic hardware on fire-rated assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified door hardware technician or licensed contractor familiar with NFPA 80 requirements for fire door assemblies and IBC egress hardware provisions. Verify that the door and frame carry the appropriate fire label before mounting listed exit hardware, as installing fire-rated hardware on an unlabeled door does not satisfy code. Ensure the door is fully de-latched and in the open position during hardware installation to avoid latch bolt damage. After installation, perform a full operational test to confirm the latch retracts fully and the door opens freely under panic load.
