Exit Device Operation
Adams Rite rim mounted devices provide for life safety and security by us of a
“starwheel” bolt and interlocking strike. The device is totally different from
previous rim-mounted devices and achieves a new level of security for exit
devices without sacrificing life safety in any way. Additional security (against
jamb spreading) is achieved by a unique nose guard that interlocks with the
hardened steel strike plate.
When the push bar is depressed, an interior deadlocking slide is pulled back to
release the “starwheel” bolt allowing the door to open. Upon closing, the device
engages the strike and the deadlocking slide returns to secure the door. Exterior
entrance can be gained by key or with extensive line of entry trim available from
Adams Rite.
