Adams Rite P8802 48 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will an Adams Rite P8800 latch into the strike I already have on the frame?
The P8800 uses a deadlocking stainless steel Pullman latchbolt with a 3/4 inch throw, so the strike has to be a rim strike cut for a Pullman latch, not a standard rim device strike. Adams Rite calls out its own 7800 Series electric strike as the match if you are putting this on an access control opening. A Pullman latch swings up into the strike rather than deflecting like a beveled latch, so a strike prepped for a different device usually will not accept it.
2) Is the Adams Rite P8800 handed, or can I stock one for both left and right doors?
Handing is field reversible on the P8800, so one device covers left and right hand openings. For a property manager or facility keeping spares on the shelf, that means a single part number backs up every aluminum leaf in the building rather than one of each hand.
3) What do I have to specify when ordering a 48 inch Adams Rite P8800?
Four decisions on the order. Finish, from 313 dark bronze anodized, 335 black anodized, 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 628 clear anodized, 629 bright stainless, or 630 satin stainless. Electrified option: none, alarm, or MLR motorized latch retraction. Monitoring switch: none, single, or dual. And cylinder dogging, yes or no. Size is 48 inches. Clear anodized and dark bronze are the usual matches to existing storefront framing.
4) What is the closest narrow stile rim exit device to the Adams Rite P8800 if I need a Grade 1 device on an aluminum storefront door?
The Adams Rite P8800 Series is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device built for aluminum doors. Among narrow stile Grade 1 rim devices, the Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a 36 inch narrow stile rim device rated Grade 1 for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Falcon 19-R is a 36 inch narrow stile Grade 1 rim device in exit only function for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the TownSteel ED3700 is a 36 inch heavy duty Grade 1 narrow stile rim device. All three are narrow stile like the P8800, so the deciding factors are the device length your door width calls for and whether you need trim.
5) I need a rim exit device on a fire rated opening - can the Adams Rite P8800 be used?
The Adams Rite P8800 Series carries a fire rating value of No, so for a labeled opening choose a device listed as fire rated. The Marks USA M9900F is a 48 inch fire rated rim panic exit device in exit only function, the Dexter ED1000-R-F-EO is a Grade 1 fire rated rim exit device, the Arrow FS1250 is a fire rated 32 inch rim exit device, and the Orca OED85 is a 36 inch fire rated rim exit device in exit only function. The M9900F at 48 inches matches the P8800 device length.
6) I need an electrified narrow stile exit device with latch retraction - what are my options besides the Adams Rite P8800?
The Adams Rite P8800 Series is available with motorized latch retraction or an alarm, with a single or dual monitoring switch. For other electrified narrow stile devices, the Dormakaba QED200 is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow exit device and the Stanley Security QED200 is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim device with hex key dogging. The SDC MSB550 is a 36 inch mechanical switch bar with electromagnetic lock release that fits narrow or wide stile, and the SDC SureExit PSB560 is a 36 inch pressure sense bar for narrow or wide stile - both of those are switch bars releasing a separate lock rather than a latching exit device.
7) What 48 inch Grade 1 rim exit devices are there besides the Adams Rite P8800?
At 48 inches, the Adams Rite P8800 Series is a Grade 1 narrow stile device for aluminum. Other Grade 1 devices sized for that width include the DORMA 9300 at 48 inches wide stile for 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch doors, the Corbin Russwin ED3200 at 48 inches wide stile crossbar for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Dexter ED1000-R-EO 4FT Grade 1 rim device, and the Sargent 2828, a Grade 1 reversible rim device for a 48 inch minimum door width in exit only. Stile type is the separator: only the P8800 among these is narrow stile.
8) How far does the P8800 exit device stick out into the door opening?
The P8800 touchbar projects 2-15/16 inches from the door face when fully extended and 1-15/16 inches when dogged down. That difference matters where the leaf swings past a return wall, a vestibule, or a second door: the dogged dimension is what you live with during business hours on a storefront that stays pushed open.
9) Should I get cylinder dogging on a P8800 exit device, and what does it actually do?
Cylinder dogging holds the touchbar depressed and the latch retracted with a key, so the door pushes free during business hours and relatches when you undog it at close. Retail and office entrances usually want it. Skip it if the opening is on an access control system where the MLR motorized latch retraction is doing that job electrically, or if the door must stay latched at all times. Dogging is a required choice when you order, not an add-on later.
10) What is the difference between motorized latch retraction and a monitoring switch on an exit device?
They do opposite jobs. MLR motorized latch retraction pulls the latch back on a signal, so a card reader or a timer can release the door without anyone touching the bar. A monitoring switch reports back, telling the panel that the bar was pushed or the latch is secure. Single switch gives you one signal, dual gives you two so you can watch the bar and the latch separately. Access control openings commonly take both. The alarm option is the third path, a local sounder at the door with no head end required.
11) Is the Adams Rite P8800 rated for a heavy traffic commercial entrance?
Grade 1 is the top ANSI/BHMA durability tier for exit hardware, and the P8800 carries it. That is the level a school, medical building, or retail entrance cycling all day should be specified at. Grade 2 devices such as the Cal-Royal 5000 and 5500 sit a tier below and suit lighter traffic openings.
12) Is there a simpler standard duty rim exit device if I do not need the electrified features of the Adams Rite P8800?
The Adams Rite P8800 Series carries options for motorized latch retraction, alarm, and single or dual monitoring switches. For a mechanical-only opening, the Hager 4701 is a standard duty 36 inch rim exit device with Grade 1 BHMA certification, the Design Hardware 2000R is a 33 inch standard duty rim device with hex key dogging for wide stile, and the Arrow ED910 is a 36 inch rim exit device for 1-3/4 inch doors. Note that the Hager, Design Hardware, and Arrow options are not narrow stile aluminum door devices the way the P8800 is, so verify the stile before ordering.
13) What looks like an Adams Rite P8800 alternative but will not actually latch the door?
Two items in the exit device family look similar on a door but do not latch. The Detex Advantex 00 Series is a super heavy duty dummy exit device with wide stile design, and the Sargent 12-8810-LTRIM is a wide stile rim device whose function is dummy. Both give the push bar appearance on the inactive leaf without securing the opening. The Dexter ED1500-EXTRD-SP is a 12 inch extension rod assembly for ED1500 exit devices, which is a component rather than a device. The Adams Rite P8800 Series is a Grade 1 latching rim device for narrow stile aluminum doors.
14) I want a crossbar rim exit device at 48 inches instead of a touchbar - what should I look at?
The Adams Rite P8800 Series uses a stainless steel touchbar. If a crossbar is what the opening calls for, the CRL Jackson 1095 Series is a 48 inch crossbar rim panic exit device in exit only function for wide stile, and the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a 48 inch Grade 1 crossbar rim exit device for wide stile doors with a 1-3/4 inch door thickness. Both are wide stile devices, so confirm your stile will accept them - the P8800 is a narrow stile device.
15) Which narrow stile rim exit devices can I standardize on across a facility alongside Adams Rite P8800 openings?
The Adams Rite P8800 Series is Grade 1 narrow stile for aluminum doors, and several narrow stile Grade 1 devices sit in the same class for mixed openings: the Detex 40 Advantex is an extra heavy duty Grade 1 narrow stile rim device, the TownSteel ED8900 is a 36 inch heavy duty Grade 1 narrow stile rim device, the Falcon 1590EO is a 42 inch narrow stile Grade 1 rim device in exit only for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Sargent 8504 is a narrow design rim device in night latch function, Grade 1. The Sargent differs in that it is night latch rather than exit only, so key access from outside is part of the device.
16) Is a concealed vertical rod device an alternative to the Adams Rite P8800 rim device?
They solve the opening differently. The Adams Rite P8800 Series is a rim device that latches to a strike on the frame and works with the 7800 Series electric strike. The Hager 4601 is a 36 inch Grade 1 concealed vertical rod narrow stile exit device and the Hager 4501 is a 36 inch Grade 1 concealed vertical rod device with a wide stile pushpad - vertical rod devices latch top and bottom rather than at the jamb, which changes the door and frame prep. Pick the rim device if the frame carries the strike; pick vertical rod if the pair of doors has no mullion.
17) Does the Adams Rite P8800 come with mounting hardware, or do I need to buy fasteners?
Machine screws are the fastener type the P8800 mounts with, and the device ships with its mounting hardware and templates for laying out the holes on the door and frame. What is not in the box is the trim. If the outside of the door needs a lever, pull, or key cylinder, that is ordered separately, along with the strike if the frame is not already prepped for a Pullman latch.
18) Can I put an Adams Rite P8800 on a wood door, and what rim device works if I cannot?
The Adams Rite P8800 Series is built for aluminum and is not wood door compatible. Most of the commercial rim devices in the same class carry the same restriction - the Von Duprin 22, Corbin Russwin ED5200, Dexter ED1000, TownSteel ED9700, and Detex 10 Advantex all show wood door compatible as No. For a wood door application, confirm compatibility with the specific device before ordering rather than assuming a rim device crosses over.
