Adams Rite 3701 36 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What doors does the Adams Rite 3700 fire rated exit device fit?
This device fits 36-inch wide narrow stile wood and hollow metal doors. The rim-mounted design works with doors having limited stile width. Verify your door width and stile dimensions before ordering.
2) What fire rating does this exit device provide?
The Adams Rite 3700 is fire rated for use on fire-rated door assemblies. The specific rating depends on the door and frame assembly. Check manufacturer documentation for exact fire rating specifications.
3) How does the starwheel mechanism work?
The starwheel provides field adjustability for proper latch engagement. Turn the wheel to adjust latch projection and ensure proper alignment with the strike. This allows fine-tuning during installation without removing the device.
4) What handing options are available?
Specify left hand or right hand when ordering. Handing is determined from the secure side of the door. The device must be ordered for the correct hand as field reversibility may not be possible.
5) What finishes are available for this exit device?
Standard finishes include aluminum, dark bronze, and black. Some finishes may require extended lead times. Verify finish availability and lead time when placing your order.
6) Does this device meet ADA requirements?
Exit devices typically meet ADA operating force requirements when properly installed. The push pad requires 5 pounds maximum force to operate. Verify complete door assembly compliance with local accessibility codes.
7) What accessories are available for the 3700 series?
Common accessories include cylinder dogging, key override cylinders, and alarm attachments. Weather stripping and special strikes may also be available. Check with manufacturer specifications for compatible accessories.
8) What are the basic installation requirements?
Installation requires proper door preparation per manufacturer template. Door must be properly reinforced at mounting points. Use manufacturer-supplied template for accurate drilling and mounting locations.
9) How do I maintain the starwheel adjustment?
Periodically check latch engagement and adjust starwheel as needed. Clean mechanism of debris and lubricate per manufacturer schedule. Test device operation monthly to ensure proper function.
10) What other Adams Rite exit devices are similar?
The 3700 series includes various widths and configurations. Consider the 4300 series for different applications or the 2200 series for lighter duty use. Browse our Adams Rite selection for comparable models.
11) What field conditions affect installation?
Door sag, frame alignment, and weather conditions can affect operation. Ensure door hangs properly and frame is square. Allow for thermal expansion in exterior applications.
12) What measurements are critical for proper fit?
Verify door thickness, stile width, and overall door dimensions. Measure strike location and ensure adequate clearance. Check manufacturer specifications for minimum and maximum door thickness requirements.
