Adams Rite 28-0070-MP – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How many Adams Rite 28-0070-MP spring clips do I need for one deadlatch paddle?
Two. The 28-0070-MP is sold as a set of two clips, which is the quantity a single Adams Rite deadlatch paddle assembly takes. One order covers one paddle repair, so if you are servicing several storefront doors, order one set per door.
2) What exactly is the Adams Rite 28-0070-MP part?
It is a small spring clip used inside Adams Rite deadlatch paddle assemblies, not a latch or a paddle itself. If your paddle has gone loose, mushy, or stopped returning, the clip is the wear item that gets replaced. It is a genuine OEM component for commercial door hardware.
3) Is this the right repair part for a paddle that won't spring back on an aluminum storefront door?
If the door uses an Adams Rite deadlatch with a paddle trim, yes, the 28-0070-MP spring clips are the factory replacement for that assembly. Replace both clips at once rather than one, since they wear together.
4) Can a Deltana DLE23875 drive-in latch be used instead of the Adams Rite 28-0070-MP spring clip?
No. The Adams Rite 28-0070-MP is a replacement spring clip for Adams Rite deadlatch paddle assemblies, supplied as the set of two clips a paddle assembly requires, and it is a commercial door hardware component. The Deltana DLE23875 is a complete drive-in entry latch for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick, and the Deltana DLP23875 is the same drive-in latch in a passage/privacy function with an adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset. Those are whole bored-door latch units, not internal clips for an Adams Rite paddle, so neither will restore a paddle assembly.
5) Is the Kwikset 84290 plainlatch an equivalent replacement part for an Adams Rite deadlatch?
It is not. The Kwikset 84290 is a square corner plainlatch with a 2-3/8 inch backset, and the related Kwikset 83518 is an adjustable square drive UL 3 hour latch, both intended for Kwikset cylindrical locksets on bored doors. The Adams Rite 28-0070-MP is a spring clip that goes inside an Adams Rite deadlatch paddle assembly and is ordered two per assembly. Replacing an Adams Rite paddle clip calls for the Adams Rite part; the Kwikset latches will not fit a narrow stile deadlatch paddle.
6) Do I have to disassemble or modify the door to install the 28-0070-MP clips?
No modification. The clips drop directly into compatible Adams Rite deadlatch paddle assemblies with no drilling or altering of the hardware. You pull the paddle assembly, swap both clips, and reassemble.
7) I need a small replacement part for a latch, not a whole latch. Which options are actual service parts?
The Adams Rite 28-0070-MP is a replacement part for Adams Rite deadlatch paddle assemblies, a spring clip supplied two per set. On the other brands, the Emtek 83228 is also a service part rather than a complete latch, covering the faceplate and screws for a tubular pocket door privacy latch with square corners. The difference is where each goes: the Adams Rite clip is an internal component of a paddle assembly, while the Emtek 83228 is the exposed faceplate and fasteners on a pocket door privacy latch.
8) My storefront deadlatch paddle is worn out. Should I look at a motorized latch like the Emtek LC9-DBLTCH instead?
Those solve different problems. The Emtek LC9-DBLTCH is an EMPowered motorized deadbolt latch, an electrified unit that drives a deadbolt. The Adams Rite 28-0070-MP is a mechanical spring clip that restores an existing Adams Rite deadlatch paddle assembly to its original operating condition, ordered as a set of two. If the paddle hardware itself is sound and only the clips have fatigued, the 28-0070-MP keeps the existing mechanical assembly in service; the Emtek unit would be a change of function to motorized deadbolt operation.
9) For a fire rated opening, is the Kwikset 83521 a substitute for the Adams Rite 28-0070-MP?
No, they are not interchangeable. The Kwikset 83521 is an RCAL plain latch rated UL 3 hour for Kwikset BBL, KNL, CNL and PLL locksets, meaning it is a complete latch unit for those cylindrical lock families. The Adams Rite 28-0070-MP is a paddle assembly spring clip for commercial Adams Rite deadlatch hardware and is supplied two per set. Servicing an Adams Rite paddle on a rated opening means using the Adams Rite component rather than a Kwikset cylindrical latch.
10) Should a property manager stock the 28-0070-MP for a building with multiple storefront entries?
It is a sensible spare to keep on the shelf. Paddle spring clips are a common wear item on high traffic commercial entries, and since each paddle needs two clips, stocking a few sets means a failed paddle gets fixed the same day instead of leaving a door that won't latch.
