Lockey PB114242 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the minimum stile width for the Lockey PB1142 panic bar?
Down to 2-1/2 inches. That puts the PB1142 on narrow stile aluminum storefront leaves, not just hollow metal and wood, so glass front installers working an aluminum entrance with a 2-1/2 inch stile can use it. Anything narrower than 2-1/2 inches and the chassis will not land on the stile.
2) Will the PB1142 exit device latch into my existing rim strike?
The latch on the PB1142 throws 11/16 inch, with a 9/16 inch throw deadlocking latch alongside it. It is a rim device, so it latches into a surface-mounted strike on the frame stop, not into a mortise pocket. If the strike currently on your frame is a rim strike set for a standard rim exit latch, the 11/16 inch throw engages it; a mortise or cylindrical lock strike will not work and needs to be swapped for a rim strike.
3) Is the Lockey PB1142 Grade 1 and ADA compliant for a school or healthcare corridor?
Both. The PB1142 is ANSI/BHMA A156.3 Grade 1, the heavy-duty rating for exit devices, and it meets the ANSI A117.1 ADA requirements for accessible operation. It is also UL/cUL listed. That combination is what a facility spec for education, healthcare, or a government building usually calls for on an egress door.
4) What is the closest equivalent to the Lockey PB1142 rim exit device for a 48 inch door?
The Lockey PB1142 is a Grade 1 rim exit device sized for 48 inch doors with a 42 inch device length. For the same opening width, the Sargent 3828 is a Grade 1 reversible standard push bar rim exit device for 48 inch doors, and the Sargent 2828 is a Grade 1 reversible rim exit device for a 48 inch minimum door width; both are wide stile, exit only devices. The Cal-Royal A9820 and the Dormakaba DORMA 9300 Series are also 48 inch rim devices, the 9300A being a heavy duty wide stile exit only device with a 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range. The Lockey differs in that it carries narrow stile capability down to 2-1/2 inch and is rated for aluminum, hollow metal, and wood doors, where the Sargent, Cal-Royal, and Dormakaba units are wide stile and not listed for wood.
5) I need an electrified exit device for access control - what takes the place of the Lockey PB1142?
The Lockey PB1142 is a mechanical touch bar rim device. For openings tied into access control, the SDC S6136 Spectra S6000 Series is a 36 inch electrified architectural rim exit device with a 4 inch wide stile and a 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch door thickness. The Dormakaba E2103 is a 36 inch electrified rim exit device supplied with 4908A trim in a classroom function, and the Sargent 12-8810 is a fire rated wide stile rim device with request to exit and motorized electric latch retraction. The Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar listed at 2-1/4 inch door thickness.
6) The opening is a fire rated door - can the Lockey PB1142 be used, or is there a fire labeled rim device instead?
The Lockey PB1142 is UL/cUL listed and ANSI/BHMA A156.3 Grade 1 certified, but where the opening requires a fire labeled exit device, the fire rated rim devices are the ones to specify. The Marks USA M9900F is offered in a 48 inch fire rated exit only version with a panic protector end cap, which matches the 48 inch door width the Lockey covers. Other fire rated rim options are the Adams Rite 3700 Series 30 inch narrow stile device, the Arrow FS1250 32 inch device, the Dexter ED1000 Series fire rated Grade 1 rim device, and the Orca Hardware OED85 Series 36 inch device.
7) My door is 36 inches wide, not 48 - what rim exit device should I use instead of the Lockey PB1142?
The Lockey PB1142 is built around a 48 inch door with a 42 inch device length, so a 36 inch opening calls for a device sized to it. Grade 1 rim devices at 36 inches include the TownSteel ED1100, a heavy duty wide stile device; the Corbin Russwin ED2200, a wide stile exit only device; the Corbin Russwin ED4200 narrow stile device; the Falcon 19-R narrow stile exit only device with a 1-3/4 inch door thickness; and the Imperial USA ED-501 wide stile panic device. The Dexter ED1000 Series is also offered in a 3FT Grade 1 rim version.
8) I need a narrow stile rim device for an aluminum storefront - how does the Lockey PB1142 compare to Adams Rite and Falcon narrow stile devices?
The Lockey PB1142 handles narrow stile applications down to 2-1/2 inch minimum width and is rated for aluminum, hollow metal, and wood doors at 1-3/4 inch thickness. Among dedicated narrow stile rim devices, the Adams Rite 8700 Series 30 inch and 3700 Series 30 inch both use starwheel interlocking and are wood door compatible, the 3700 being fire rated and the 8700 not. The Adams Rite 8800 Series 30 inch is narrow stile with a 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range but is not wood door compatible. The Falcon 1590EO is a Grade 1 narrow stile exit only device at 42 inches with a 1-3/4 inch door thickness, matching the Lockey device length, and the Falcon 1790EO is the same 42 inch narrow stile exit only size in the 1790 Series.
9) Will an SDC pressure sense bar or switch bar do the same job as the Lockey PB1142?
No, they solve different problems. The Lockey PB1142 is a mechanical rim exit device with a stainless steel latch system, an 11/16 inch throw latch bolt and a 9/16 inch throw deadlocking latch, so it latches the door itself. The SDC MSB550 Series 36 inch mechanical switch bar releases an electromagnetic lock, and the SDC SureExit PSB560 Series 36 inch pressure sense bar uses tri-failsafe technology; both are bars that signal a separate locking device rather than rim devices with their own latch. Both SDC bars are listed for narrow or wide stile. If the opening is held by a maglock, the SDC bars apply; if the door needs a latch, the rim device does.
10) The door is thicker than 1-3/4 inch - which rim exit devices cover that?
The Lockey PB1142 is built for standard 1-3/4 inch door thickness. For a thicker leaf, the Adams Rite 8800 Series 30 inch narrow stile device covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Dormakaba DORMA 9300 Series 48 inch wide stile device covers the same 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch range. The SDC S6136 Spectra covers 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch, and the Securitron EMB electromechanical exit bar is listed at 2-1/4 inch. Measure the leaf before ordering, since most of the 36 inch class devices are 1-3/4 inch only.
11) Can I put the Lockey PB1142 on a wood door?
Yes, wood is one of the constructions it covers, along with aluminum and hollow metal. That is worth knowing because most of the commercial rim devices in this class are not rated for wood. Among the alternatives, the Adams Rite 3700 and 8700 Series are the ones that also list wood door compatibility; the Corbin Russwin ED5200 and the BEST Precision 2101, for instance, do not.
12) What else could I buy instead of the Lockey PB1142 for a 48 inch door?
A few real 48 inch rim devices sit alongside it. The Sargent 2828 is a Grade 1 reversible wide stile rim device for a 48 inch minimum door width, and the Sargent 3828 is the standard push bar version of the same for 48 inch doors. The Dormakaba DORMA 9300A is a Grade 1 heavy duty wide stile 48 inch device with a 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range if your leaf is thicker than 1-3/4 inches. The Cal-Royal 5500 is a 48 inch push bar device at Grade 2 rather than Grade 1. Where the Lockey differs from all of these is narrow stile capability down to 2-1/2 inches, so on aluminum storefront it stays in play and the wide stile devices do not.
13) Is the Lockey PB1142 a touch bar or a crossbar device?
Touch bar. The PB1142 uses a touch bar actuator that runs the width of the device rather than an exposed crossbar. If your building is standardized on crossbar hardware and you want the look to match, the CRL Jackson 1095 Series is a 48 inch crossbar rim panic device and the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 48 inch crossbar rim device.
14) Is a Grade 2 rim exit device like the Cal-Royal 5500 an acceptable substitute for the Lockey PB1142?
They are certified to different levels. The Lockey PB1142 is ANSI/BHMA A156.3 Grade 1 certified for heavy duty commercial use. The Cal-Royal 5500 is a 48 inch wide rim exit device with a push bar carrying a Grade 2 rating with heavy duty construction, and the Cal-Royal 5000 is a 36 inch touch bar rim device also rated Grade 2. Where a specification or facility standard calls out Grade 1, the Cal-Royal units will not satisfy it even though the 5500 covers the same 48 inch door width.
15) I want a touch bar rather than a crossbar exit device - which of these are crossbar and which are push pad or touch bar?
The Lockey PB1142 uses touch bar style operation. Crossbar devices, where a horizontal bar spans the door on standoffs, include the CRL Jackson 1095 Series 48 inch crossbar rim panic device and the Corbin Russwin ED3000 Series 48 inch crossbar rim device, both wide stile. Push pad and paddle style alternatives at that width include the Cal-Royal 5500 48 inch push bar device and the Sargent 3828 standard push bar device for 48 inch doors, with the CRL Jackson 1095P offering a paddle and the CRL Jackson 1295 Series a non-handed push pad. The bar style changes the look and the projection off the door face, so confirm it against the rest of the openings in the building.
16) What is the difference between the Lockey PB1142 and a concealed vertical rod device like the Hager 4501?
The Lockey PB1142 is a rim device, meaning the latch engages a strike mounted on the frame at the bar. The Hager 4501 Series 36 inch is a Grade 1 concealed vertical rod exit device with a wide stile pushpad, and the Hager 4601 Series 36 inch is a Grade 1 concealed vertical rod narrow stile device; both latch top and bottom through rods hidden in the door rather than at a frame strike. Concealed vertical rod requires a door prepped for the rods, so it is chosen at the door order, while the rim device mounts to the face of a standard door with a surface strike.
17) I need the exit device to accept outside trim or work as a nightlatch - which devices do that instead of the Lockey PB1142?
Several Grade 1 rim devices are specified for outside trim. The Corbin Russwin ED4200 narrow stile and the Corbin Russwin ED5200 wide stile are both listed as exit only and accepts trim, at 36 inches with a 1-3/4 inch door thickness. The Sargent 8504 is a nightlatch function narrow stile rim device, Grade 1, where a key from outside retracts the latch. The Detex V4003A/03AN is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device offered with night latch trim. For a purely push-to-exit opening with no outside operation, the Lockey PB1142 covers the 48 inch door directly.
18) The door sees very high traffic - is there a heavier rim exit device than the Lockey PB1142?
The Lockey PB1142 is Grade 1 certified with stainless steel powder metallurgy components. Where a facility wants a step beyond standard Grade 1 duty, the Detex Advantex line is rated extra heavy duty: the Detex 40 Series is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty narrow stile rim device and the Detex 10 Series is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty wide stile rim device at 36 inches. The Dormakaba QED200 and the Stanley Security QED200 Series are Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile devices, the Dormakaba version at a 36 inch device with a 7 foot rod. All of these are 36 inch class devices, so the 48 inch opening the Lockey covers is a different size class.
19) Do any of these rim exit devices offer dogging, so the door can be held push-open during business hours?
Dogging holds the latch retracted so the door pushes freely during open hours. The Design Hardware 1000R is a 33 inch heavy duty rim device with hex key dogging and the Design Hardware 2000R is a 33 inch standard duty wide stile rim device with hex key dogging, the two differing in duty level within the same 33 inch size. The Stanley Security QED200 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim device with hex key dogging. Note that fire rated openings generally cannot be dogged, so the choice interacts with whether the door carries a label.
20) What looks like a rim exit device in the same family but will not actually latch a door?
Two items sit close to these devices without doing the job of one. The Detex Advantex 00 Series is a super heavy duty dummy exit device with wide stile design, Grade 1, meant to match the look of an active device on an inactive leaf without operating a latch. The Dexter ED1500-EXTRD-SP is a 12 inch extension rod assembly for ED1500 exit devices, a component rather than a device. The Lockey PB1142 by contrast is a full rim exit device with an 11/16 inch throw latch bolt and a 9/16 inch throw deadlocking latch.
21) For standardizing exit hardware across a whole facility, which rim devices are non-handed like the Lockey PB1142 family?
Non-handed and reversible devices cut the number of part numbers a facility has to stock. The BEST Precision 5101 Series is a rim exit device with a non-handed universal design, and the BEST 2401 Series is a narrow stile rim device that is exit only and non-handed. The CRL Jackson 1295 Series is a non-handed push pad rim panic device, and the Sargent 2828 and Sargent 3828 are both Grade 1 reversible rim devices for 48 inch doors. The Lockey PB1142 is field sizable, so its length can be adjusted during installation for the opening.
22) What finish options does the Lockey PB1142 come in?
Two: aluminum and stainless steel. The aluminum finish is the weather-resistant one, which is the pick for an exterior door or anything exposed to the elements. Both carry the same 42 inch device and Grade 1 chassis, so the choice is appearance and exposure rather than performance.
23) How durable is the latch on the Lockey PB1142 for a high traffic entrance?
The latch assembly is stainless steel built by powder metallurgy, and the whole device carries the Grade 1 rating, which is the top heavy-duty tier under ANSI/BHMA for exit hardware. On a main entrance in an office building, school, or multi-tenant residential property taking constant cycles, that is the tier you want rather than a Grade 2 device like the Cal-Royal 5000 or 5500.
