Accentra 6160ED 36" Grade 1 Concealed Vertical Rod Exit Bar, Wood Door, Wide Stile Pushpad

Product Overview

Elevate your architectural openings with the sophisticated security of the Accentra 6160ED Concealed Vertical Rod (CVR) Exit Device. Combining top-tier ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 durability with sleek aesthetics, this heavy-duty crash bar is designed specifically for standard wide stile wood doors. By concealing the vertical locking rods within the core of the door, it provides a clean, streamlined appearance while offering superior two-point locking security (top and bottom) against tampering and unauthorized entry. Backed by the legacy of ASSA ABLOY Accentra (formerly Yale), the 6160ED is the ideal choice for high-traffic commercial, institutional, and educational facilities where both form and function are paramount.

Key Features & Benefits

• Concealed Aesthetics: Rods and latches are entirely hidden within the wood door, providing a sophisticated, hardware-light appearance ideal for modern architectural designs.

• Two-Point Locking Security: Deadlocking latches engage at both the top of the door frame and the floor/threshold, offering significantly higher resistance to prying or forced entry compared to single-point devices.

• Grade 1 Performance: Certified to meet or exceed ANSI/BHMA A156.3, Grade 1 standards, guaranteeing millions of cycles of reliable operation in demanding environments.

• Wide Stile Pushpad: Features a robust, full-width pushpad that accommodates standard wood door stile widths, providing a solid feel and intuitive operation during egress.

• Quiet & Smooth: Precision engineering ensures the device operates smoothly and quietly, reducing the acoustic footprint of busy hallways and entrances.

• Vandal Resistant: The concealed design removes external catch points and visible rods that could be tampered with or damaged by carts or traffic.

• Non-Handed Design: Simplified field reversibility reduces stocking requirements and simplifies installation logistics (handed configurations available upon request).

• 10-Year Limited Warranty: Your investment is protected by a decade of warranted performance from ASSA ABLOY.
