Hager 45CE Exit Trim - Classroom Cylinder Escutcheon
The Hager 45CE is a heavy-duty, high-security exterior trim designed to provide keyed access control for Hager 4500 Series exit devices. Operating as a Classroom Function, this trim allows the exterior lever to be locked or unlocked by a key. When unlocked, the lever operates the exit device for entry; when locked, the lever is rigid, preventing unauthorized access while always allowing free egress from the interior. Featuring a narrow-profile escutcheon, the 45CE is the premier choice for schools, municipal buildings, and commercial offices.
Advanced Security and Vandal Resistance
The Hager 45CE is engineered to withstand the rigors of institutional use. The Cylinder Escutcheon design protects the locking mechanism from tampering and environmental wear. For enhanced security in high-abuse areas, the trim features a clutching/free-wheeling lever that rotates freely when locked, preventing damage to the internal motor or latching mechanism from forced entry attempts. The use of a standard mortise cylinder allows for easy integration into existing master key systems.
Institutional Resilience and Design Versatility
Certified to ANSI/BHMA Grade 1, this trim is built for over one million cycles of reliable operation. The lever is fully ADA compliant, ensuring ease of use for all authorized personnel. To maintain a cohesive architectural look, the 45CE can be ordered with the Withnell (WTN), Archer (ARC), or August (AUG) lever styles and is secured with heavy-duty thru bolts to ensure a permanent, rigid bond to the door.
