4781 Two-Point Deadlatch with Paddle

Adams Rite

For aluminum stile doors.

 

Function

Designed for paired outswinging narrow stile glass doors but also suitable for single doors. Instead of operating a conventional horizontal-throw latchbolt, the 4781 latches to header and threshold. This allows both door leaves to be “active”. There is no need to pin one door with flushbolts or other devices. The paddles are a modified version of the 4591 and the concealed vertical rod mechanism is the same as used in Adams Rite`s 8600 exit device. Note, however, that the 4781 is not intended to substitute for an exit device, which must have a door-spanning bar.

 

Inside Operation

Push paddle to unblock top bolt and withdraw bottom bolt. Continuing to push opens the door in a very natural, handicap-friendly motion. Paddle stroke is approx.. 1-1/2” at extreme end. Rod adjustment allows paddle (centerline) to be mounted at any height from 30 to 40 inches above the finished floor.

 

Outside operation

If key entry operation is required, any standard mortise cylinder with MS® cam can be installed through an 8650 cylinder escutcheon. Any of the entry trim available with Adams Rite exit devices can also be specified, in the version used for CVR devices.
