How much does an Adams Rite 8600 exit device cost?
The band on this page comes live from the current Adams Rite price book. It firms to a single price once the part number is complete — push bar finish, door opening width and finish are the selections the tool above asks for.
Is the 8600 panic rated?
Yes — the Adams Rite spec sheet lists UL 305 Panic hardware and ANSI/BHMA A156.3 Grade 1 certifications for the 8600.
What door widths does the 8600 fit?
Standard sizes are dimensioned for 30", 36", 42" and 48" openings, and standard width bars can be field cut to the next smallest opening width. On a pair of doors, Adams Rite says to specify half of the total exit opening.
What stile and door thickness does the 8600 fit?
Under Stile Width Adams Rite prints "Minimum 2" [50.8 mm] stile. Fits narrow, medium, and wide stile aluminum doors." Under Stile Wall it adds that doors with stile walls other than 1/8" require modification. Door thickness suits 1-3/4" standard, up to 2-1/4", though the device requires modification when used with a cylinder in doors over 1-3/4"; the device itself is non-handed.
Does the 8600 support electrified options?
The spec sheet lists Electric Latch Retraction (LR, solenoid) and Motorized Latch Retraction (MLR) device options plus single-switch (M) and dual-switch (M2) monitoring. Electric Dogging has been discontinued; Adams Rite points to the latch retraction options in its place. Cylinder dogging (C) is printed for non-fire-rated devices only, and an alarm (A) option is listed too.
How tall a door can the 8600 handle?
The standard configuration suits doors up to 66" above the selected bar height; for taller doors, up to 10', Adams Rite offers the 8655 Tall Door Kit separately. The bar height itself adjusts from 30" to 44" on the standard model.
What cylinder does the 8600 take?
Any standard 1" length, 1-5/32" diameter mortise cylinder with an MS cam, such as the 4036 Mortise Cylinder; it accommodates cylinder lengths from 1" to 1-1/4", available separately.
