Marks USA M8800-36-32D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Marks USA M8800 rim exit device work on an aluminum storefront door?
That's exactly what the M8800 is built for. It's a narrow stile rim device sized for 36 inch and 48 inch narrow stile doors at 1-3/4 inch thickness, which is the standard aluminum storefront leaf. It is not rated for wood doors, so keep it on hollow metal or aluminum openings. If your door is thicker than 1-3/4 inches, the M8800 is the wrong pick and you'd want a device with a thickness range, such as the Adams Rite 8800 Series, which covers 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inches.
2) Do I need to specify handing when ordering the Marks USA M8800?
No handing to specify. The M8800 is non-handed and installs on either hand without modification, so one part number covers left and right hand openings. That matters if you're stocking spares for a building with doors swinging both ways.
3) Can the Marks USA M8800 secure a pair of doors?
Yes, on a pair with a mullion. The M8800's stated application is narrow stile single and double doors with mullions, and it's a rim device, so it latches into a strike on the mullion rather than at the head and sill. If the opening is a pair with no center mullion, a rim device won't work there and you need a vertical rod device instead, such as the Hager 4601 Series concealed vertical rod narrow stile device.
4) Can I hold the M8800 exit device unlocked during business hours?
Yes. The M8800 uses hex key dogging, so a maintenance tech depresses the touchbar and turns a hex key to hold the latch retracted for free push-pull passage, then releases it at close of business. Dogging is only permitted on non-fire-rated devices, and the M8800 is not fire rated, so this is a legitimate feature here rather than a code problem.
5) Can I add an outside lever and pull to a Marks USA M8800, or is it exit only?
As ordered, the M8800 is exit only, meaning it's a push-to-exit bar with no outside trim, no cylinder, and no way back in from the outside. Marks lists an optional lever and escutcheon trim, MESC350A, for configurations that need outside access. If you want a device that ships ready to take trim, the Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device listed as exit only and accepts trim.
6) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to the Marks USA M8800 narrow stile rim exit device for a 36 inch aluminum door?
The Corbin Russwin ED4200 is the nearest match: a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device in 36 inch, exit only, for 1-3/4 inch door thickness -- the same stile type, size, grade and door thickness the M8800 covers. TownSteel's ED3700 and ED8900 are also 36 inch Grade 1 narrow stile rim devices in heavy duty. Falcon's 19-R is a 36 inch Grade 1 narrow stile rim device, exit only, for 1-3/4 inch doors. Any of the four lands on the same opening the M8800 is built for: narrow stile single and double doors with mullions.
7) Can the Marks USA M8800 go on a wood door, and what should I use if the door is wood?
The M8800 is specified for hollow metal and aluminum narrow stile openings, not wood. For a wood leaf, the Adams Rite 8700 Series is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device rated wood door compatible, and the Adams Rite 3700 Series is the wood-compatible Grade 1 narrow stile option that also carries a fire rating. Note that the Adams Rite 8800 Series, despite the matching number, is not wood door compatible.
8) Is a wide stile rim exit device like the Von Duprin 22 a substitute for the Marks USA M8800?
No -- these mount on different doors. The M8800 is a narrow stile device for narrow stile single and double doors with mullions, typical of aluminum storefront. The Von Duprin 22-3FT is a wide stile pushpad rim device, 36 inch non-handed, Grade 1, for 1-3/4 inch doors, and needs the wider stile face of a hollow metal leaf. Same rim latching, same door width, but the chassis footprint will not fit a narrow storefront stile. Other wide stile devices in the same size class are the Corbin Russwin ED2200 in 36 inch Grade 1 exit only and the TownSteel ED9700 in 36 inch Grade 1 heavy duty.
9) I need outside key access on a narrow stile rim device, not exit only like the Marks USA M8800 -- what takes trim?
The M8800 is an exit only function. For a narrow stile rim device that accepts outside trim, the Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a Grade 1 narrow stile device listed as exit only and accepts trim, for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Sargent 8504 is a Grade 1 narrow design rim device in night latch function, giving key retraction of the latch from the outside. On the wide stile side, the Corbin Russwin ED5200 is Grade 1, exit only and accepts trim.
10) Does a concealed vertical rod device do the same thing as the Marks USA M8800 rim device?
No. The M8800 is a rim device -- the latch throws into a surface strike on the frame or mullion. The Hager 4601 Series is a 36 inch Grade 1 narrow stile concealed vertical rod exit device, which latches top and bottom through rods inside the door and requires a door prepped for that hardware. Hager's 4501 Series is the 36 inch Grade 1 concealed vertical rod device with a wide stile pushpad. Neither retrofits a rim strike opening. Hager's rim equivalent is the 4701 Series, a 36 inch standard duty rim device with Grade 1 BHMA certification.
11) What's the difference between a narrow stile rim exit device like the M8800 and a wide stile one?
It comes down to the door's vertical rail width. The M8800 is a narrow stile device, sized to fit the slim stile of an aluminum storefront leaf where a wide stile chassis simply won't land. Wide stile devices need a broader rail, typically on hollow metal doors. If your door has a wide stile, look at something like the Von Duprin 22 Series pushpad rim device at 36 inches for 1-3/4 inch doors, or the Corbin Russwin ED5200 Grade 1 wide stile rim device. Putting a wide stile device on a narrow stile door is one of the most common ordering mistakes on storefront work.
12) Will the M8800 hold up on a high traffic entrance where people kick and shove the door?
It's built for that duty. Heavy-duty cast chassis, and the end caps are mitered steel flush-mounted Panic Protector caps specifically there to take abuse and cut down on catch hazards, with a reduced-projection touchbar so bags and carts snag less. It's Grade 1 to ANSI 156.3, which is the commercial high-frequency tier. For an even higher duty class, Detex lists the 40 Advantex narrow stile as extra heavy duty.
13) Does the M8800 come in a 48 inch length for a wider door leaf?
The M8800 is engineered for both 36 inch and 48 inch door widths, and the device is offered at 36 inches for the standard leaf. Measure the door width, not the frame opening, before you pick a length. For a 48 inch leaf on a wide stile door, comparable 48 inch rim devices include the Cal-Royal A9820 and the Corbin Russwin ED3200 crossbar device for 1-3/4 inch doors.
14) Is an electrified exit bar an alternative to the Marks USA M8800 on an access-controlled opening?
They do different jobs. The M8800 is a mechanical rim exit device with hex key dogging. The SDC MSB550 Series is a 36 inch mechanical switch bar with electromagnetic lock release, built for narrow or wide stile, and the SDC SureExit PSB560 is a 36 inch pressure sense bar for narrow or wide stile -- these signal or release an electromagnetic lock rather than throwing a rim latch into a strike. If the door needs a latching rim device plus electric control, the SDC S6136 is an electrified rim exit device on a 4 inch wide stile for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors.
15) Which rim exit devices besides the Marks USA M8800 also use hex key dogging?
The M8800 uses hex key dogging to hold the latch retracted for free passage. Design Hardware's 1000R is a 33 inch heavy duty rim device with hex key dogging, and the 2000R is the 33 inch standard duty version with hex key dogging. The Stanley Security QED200 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim device with hex key dogging, closest to the M8800 on stile type. Standardizing on one dogging method means one hex wrench serves the whole facility.
16) What Grade 2 rim exit device is a step down from the Marks USA M8800?
The M8800 is certified to ANSI 156.3 Grade 1. Where a lighter-traffic opening does not need Grade 1, the Cal-Royal 5000 is a Grade 2 heavy duty rim exit device with a touch bar in 36 inch, and the Cal-Royal 5500 is the Grade 2 heavy duty push bar version in 48 inch. Both are wide stile-style chassis rather than narrow stile, so verify the stile face on the door before swapping.
17) What are the alternatives to the Marks USA M8800 touch bar if I want a crossbar or paddle actuator?
The M8800 uses a reduced-projection touch bar. For a crossbar actuator, the CRL Jackson 1095 Series is a 48 inch wide stile crossbar rim panic device in exit only, and the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 48 inch wide stile crossbar rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors. For a paddle, the CRL Jackson 1095P is a wide stile paddle rim panic device in exit only. All three are wide stile, so the actuator choice comes with a different chassis footprint than the narrow stile M8800.
18) The Marks USA M8800 covers 36 inch and 48 inch doors -- which competing narrow stile devices cover a 42 inch or 30 inch leaf?
For a wider leaf, the Falcon 1590EO is a 42 inch Grade 1 narrow stile rim device in exit only for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Falcon 1790EO is the 42 inch narrow stile exit only device in the 1790 Series. For a narrower leaf, the Adams Rite 8700 and 8800 Series both come in 30 inch Grade 1 narrow stile. Rim device bar length has to match the door width, so pick the length by leaf, not by series.
19) For a high-abuse opening, what is a heavier-duty narrow stile option than the Marks USA M8800?
The M8800 uses a heavy-duty cast chassis with mitered steel Panic Protector end caps to resist abuse. If the spec calls for a step above heavy duty, the Detex 40 Advantex Series is an extra heavy duty Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device. On a wide stile leaf, the Detex 10 Advantex in 36 inch is extra heavy duty Grade 1. Both Detex devices are rated for non-wood doors, same as the M8800.
20) The Marks USA M8800 is non-handed -- which competing rim exit devices are also non-handed or reversible for stocking one part across a building?
The M8800 installs on either hand without modification, so one part number covers left and right openings. The BEST 2401 Series is a narrow stile rim exit device in exit only, non-handed. The BEST Precision 5101 Series is a non-handed universal design rim device. The Von Duprin 22-3FT is non-handed in 36 inch wide stile Grade 1, and Sargent's 2828 and 3828 are Grade 1 reversible rim devices for 48 inch doors in exit only.
21) What finishes does the Marks USA M8800 exit device come in?
Three: US32D satin stainless steel, US10B oil-rubbed dark bronze, and 619 black. US32D is the one that matches most existing storefront and commercial hardware in a building; the 10B and 619 are for openings where the rest of the hardware is dark.
22) Which 36 inch rim exit devices can I cross-shop against the Marks USA M8800 for a school or retail exit?
The M8800 is a Grade 1 commercial rim device sized for 36 inch narrow stile openings. Same-size Grade 1 rim devices to weigh against it include the TownSteel ED1100 in 36 inch heavy duty wide stile, the Imperial USA ED-501 in 36 inch wide stile exit only, the Dexter ED1000 in 3 foot Grade 1, and the Arrow ED910 in 36 inch for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Orca OED55 is a 36 inch rim device in exit only. Match stile type to the door first -- only the M8800 and the narrow stile peers fit a storefront stile.
