Troubleshooting Guide
ED4000, ED5000 Parts Manual
1. Many problems with the operation
of exit devices are caused by factors
other than the device itself. Among
the most common is a misalignment or
an improper fit of the door within the
frame.
2. Another common source of problems is
improper installation. Even if all cutouts
and screw holes are properly located,
exit devices must be securely fastened to
properly reinforced doors. Hollow doors
and frames with a structural thickness
(metal skin plus reinforcement, or solid
hardwood) must have at least three full
screw threads to be considered
reinforced.
3. Most problems with dogging occur
on vertical rod devices. When the
dogging function is hard to engage
or will not work at all, the rods may
be incorrectly adjusted allowing the
mechanism to bottom out. Readjust
rods per the device instructions or as
outlined on the previous pages.
