- Windstorm & Fire Safety: This is a Windstorm Resistant Product listed with a design load rating of 1485 lbf. It is also UL 10C Positive Pressure Rated, making it suitable for any fire-rated opening.
- Compliance & Sourcing: Fully compliant with ADA accessibility requirements and the Buy American Act, this hardware is the standard for federal, municipal, and healthcare projects.
- Seamless Installation: Designed to fit Standard 161 Door Prep with through-door thru-bolting, preventing the chassis from loosening or twisting under heavy usage.
