Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed door hardware technician or qualified commercial locksmith familiar with vertical rod exit device systems. Before servicing, ensure the door is secured in an open position and that any electronic access control or electric latch retraction power is disconnected at the power supply. Verify alignment of the vertical rod with the bottom fitting strike before final fastening to ensure proper latching under NFPA 101 and local life safety code requirements. Do not force rod alignment, as improper fit can compromise egress performance.
