Ives 299AB-7 630 Rescue Offset Emergency Strike Assembly

Product Description

The IVES 299AB-7 630 is a rescue offset emergency strike assembly designed for use in door frame applications requiring quick emergency access and code-compliant egress hardware. Built to a 5-3/4 inch by 2-3/4 inch frame profile, this strike accepts offset latch bolts and allows emergency personnel to disengage a locked door from the secured side when needed. The satin stainless steel finish provides corrosion resistance and a clean appearance suited to institutional and commercial environments. Locksmiths, door hardware installers, and facility maintenance technicians are the primary trade professionals who source and install this assembly.

This emergency strike assembly is intended for commercial and institutional door openings where rescue access capability is required. Typical installations include hospital corridors, school facilities, assisted living facilities, and other occupancies governed by life safety codes that mandate emergency egress or rescue access at certain door locations. The offset configuration accommodates frame conditions where a standard strike would not align properly with the latch bolt.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed locksmith or qualified door hardware technician familiar with local life safety and building codes. Verify that the door and frame are properly aligned before mortising or fastening the strike to avoid misalignment with the latch bolt. Consult applicable IBC and NFPA 101 requirements to confirm the rescue strike placement meets egress and access control provisions for the occupancy type. Always test full operation of the emergency release function before returning the door to service.
