Cal-Royal A9800EO36-32D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the Cal-Royal A9800 series rim exit device designed for?
The A9800 series is a 36-inch rim-mount exit device for commercial doors. It provides code-compliant egress while restricting re-entry from the exterior. The exit-only configuration prevents access from outside unless paired with compatible hardware.
2) What door widths work with this 36-inch exit device?
This device fits doors up to 36 inches wide. Standard compatibility includes 30-inch, 32-inch, 34-inch, and 36-inch door widths. Verify your door width and check the manufacturer template for proper positioning.
3) Does this exit device work on both left-hand and right-hand doors?
Most rim exit devices are field-reversible for either hand. Check the installation instructions to confirm handing options. The push bar operates the same way regardless of door swing direction.
4) What finish options are available for the A9800 series?
Cal-Royal typically offers standard finishes like aluminum, dark bronze, and painted options. Contact us to confirm available finishes for this specific model. Choose finishes that match your existing door hardware.
5) What grade rating does this exit device carry?
Cal-Royal exit devices typically meet Grade 1 commercial standards. This ensures durability for high-traffic applications. Verify the specific grade rating on the product documentation for code compliance verification.
6) Does this device meet fire and life safety codes?
Exit devices must comply with IBC, NFPA 101, and local fire codes. This rim device provides the required single-motion egress. Confirm with your local AHJ that the exit-only configuration meets project requirements.
7) What additional hardware is needed for installation?
You'll need a compatible strike plate or electric strike for the door frame. Mounting screws are typically included. Consider door position switches or request-to-exit devices if integrating with access control systems.
8) How is a rim exit device mounted to the door?
Rim devices mount to the interior face of the door. Mark locations using the manufacturer template. Drill pilot holes and secure with provided fasteners. The latch projects through the door edge to engage the strike.
9) How do you adjust the latch on this exit device?
Most rim devices have adjustable latch projection screws. Turn clockwise to extend the latch, counterclockwise to retract. Adjust until the latch properly engages the strike with minimal gap. Test operation after adjustments.
10) Are there other sizes in the A9800 series?
The A9800 series likely includes multiple widths like 48-inch models for wider doors. Browse our Cal-Royal selection for other sizes and configurations in this product family.
11) Can this exit device work in exterior door applications?
Exit devices can be used on exterior doors but require weather-resistant finishes and proper sealing. The exit-only function works well for emergency exits where re-entry control is desired. Consider environmental exposure when selecting finishes.
12) What door thickness range does this device accommodate?
Most commercial exit devices fit standard door thicknesses from 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inches. Check the installation manual for exact thickness specifications. Thicker doors may require longer through-bolts or different mounting hardware.
