PDQ 6300M Wide Stile Mortise Exit Device, Panic Rated
Grade 1 Wide Stile Mortise Exit Device, Panic and Fire Rated
The PDQ 6300M is a wide stile mortise exit device for single door applications, part of PDQ's Grade 1 6300 Series. It is built around PDQ's MR Series mortise lock and uses a stainless steel dead locking latch with a 3/4" throw, which makes it suited to retrofits of existing mortise lock openings as well as new installations.

Frequently Asked Questions
When is a mortise exit device needed instead of a rim device?
A mortise exit device latches into a mortise lock body set into the edge of the door rather than a surface-mounted rim latch. The 6300M suits projects that need a keyed mortise lock function combined with panic hardware, or doors already prepped for a mortise lock.
How is the 6300M different from the 6300R?
The 6300M requires a 5" minimum stile width, wider than the 6300R's 3-1/2", because it houses a full mortise lock body in the door edge. It also carries a 90-minute fire rating, versus 3 hours for the 6300R.
Is the 6300M rated for fire doors?
Yes. The fire rated version is ETL UL 10C and CAN/ULC-S104 listed for 90-minute fire doors on single doors up to 4' x 8'.
