Hager 4701-FR Rim Exit Device – Grade 1 Fire Rated Panic Bar for 36" Doors
The Hager 4701-FR Rim Exit Device is a high-performance, fire-rated solution engineered for light commercial applications where life safety and building code compliance are top priorities. While the standard 4700 series is built for efficiency on standard stile doors, the FR (Fire Rated) model is specifically tested and labeled to provide a secure barrier against fire and smoke, making it essential for protected stairwells, corridors, and exit doors.
Certified as a BHMA Grade 1 exit device, the 4701-FR represents the highest industry standard for security, durability, and cycle testing. It features a heavy-duty Stainless Steel Pullman-style latchbolt with a 5/8" throw. This automatic dead-latching mechanism ensures that the door remains securely latched during a fire event while allowing for immediate, effortless egress for building occupants.
Life Safety & Code Compliance
The Hager 4701-FR is designed for 36" (3'0") wide doors and is fully compliant with essential fire code requirements. This device provides the perfect balance of affordability and high-level safety assurance for office buildings, retail spaces, and small businesses. Unlike the standard panic-only models, this FR labeled unit is strictly required for any door assembly that must maintain a legal fire rating.
