Hager 4501 RIM Exit Device - Non Rated - 48" Door Width
The Hager 4501 RIM is an extra-wide, heavy-duty panic bar designed for oversized 48" commercial doors. This Grade 1 exit device is engineered for high-traffic environments like wide school corridors, hospital bay doors, and large retail exits where safety and durability are the highest priority. As a Non-Rated (Panic Hardware) device, it provides smooth, intuitive egress for non-fire-rated openings requiring code-compliant emergency exiting.
Precision Engineering for Wide Openings
Built specifically to accommodate larger door leaves, the Hager 4501 48-inch model features a lengthened push rail that can be field-cut to fit doors down to 36" if necessary. The surface-mounted stainless steel Pullman latchbolt ensures a secure dead-latching engagement with the strike, providing consistent performance in even the most demanding institutional settings. For added convenience, the device comes standard with hex key dogging, allowing the latch to be retracted for easy "push/pull" operation during high-traffic business hours.
Electrified Options & Prefixes
The Hager 4501 can be upgraded with a variety of electrified prefixes to integrate into modern access control and monitoring systems. These options allow for enhanced oversight of oversized entry points:
- RX - Request to Exit Switch: Monitors the internal switch to signal authorized egress.
- RX2 - Dual Request to Exit Switches: Provides two separate monitoring signals for redundancy.
- LM - Latchbolt Monitoring: Notifies the system when the latch is retracted or extended.
- RXLM - Request to Exit and Latchbolt Monitoring: Combined monitoring for both egress and latch status.
- AI - Authorized Ingress: Monitors the exterior trim for authorized entry attempts.
- RXAI - Authorized Ingress with Key Monitoring: High-security monitoring for ingress and physical key usage.
- DE - Delayed Egress: Delays door opening for 15-30 seconds to prevent theft or unauthorized exiting.
- OBDE - Onboard Delayed Egress: An all-in-one, self-contained delayed egress solution.
- MLR - Motorized Latch Retraction: Enables remote electric unlocking and electronic dogging.
- MLRX - Motorized Latch Retraction w/ Request to Exit: Latch retraction combined with egress monitoring.
- MLRXLM - MLR w/ Request to Exit & Latchbolt Monitoring: A complete monitoring and control suite.
- MLRLM - Motorized Latch Retraction w/ Latchbolt Monitoring: Combines motorized control with real-time latch status.
