BEST F2105 626W 36 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the BEST 2105 mount on a door already prepped for another brand's exit device?
It covers ANSI A115.2 (Type 161), A115.18 cylinder lock prep and A115.1 (Type 86) mortise lock prep. If your door was prepped to any of those standard patterns for the previous device, the 2105 works with that prep. It is a wide stile device, so the stile has to be wide enough to take the chassis; a door prepped for a narrow stile device will not accept it.
2) Will the BEST 2105 latch into the strike that is already on my frame?
The latchbolt is stainless steel, deadlocking, with a 3/4 inch throw. As a rim device it latches into a surface mounted rim strike on the frame stop, not into a mortise pocket. If your existing strike is a rim strike set for a 3/4 inch throw latch, it will engage; if the old device was a vertical rod or mortise type, you are changing the frame hardware.
3) Can I tie the BEST 2105 into an access control system?
Yes. The center driven cam accepts the tailpiece of access control products, requiring a minimum 50 degree rotation. Beyond that you can add electrified device options: electric latch retraction (ELR), motorized latch retraction (MLR), delayed egress (DE), latchbolt monitoring (LS or LDS), touchbar monitoring (TS or TDS), weatherized touchbar monitoring (WTS or WTDS), or the Q wireless access management system.
4) Will the BEST 2105 work on a pair of doors?
A rim device latches into a strike on the frame, so on a pair you need a removable mullion between the leaves to give the latch something to catch. Without a mullion, use a vertical rod device instead, for example a concealed vertical rod such as the Hager 4501 Series wide stile pushpad device.
5) What fire rated rim exit device should I use on a narrow stile aluminum door instead of the BEST Precision 2105?
The BEST Precision 2105 is a wide stile device, so on a narrow stile aluminum storefront the Adams Rite 3700 Series 30 inch fire rated narrow stile rim exit device with starwheel interlocking is the one to look at. It is Grade 1 and fire rated like the 2105, but is built for narrow stile. Keep the 2105 for wide stile openings from 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch thick, up to 4 feet wide.
6) What other 36 inch fire rated rim exit devices can replace the BEST Precision 2105?
For a 36 inch fire rated rim opening, the closest peers are the Marks USA M9900F 36 inch fire rated rim exit device, which is exit only with a panic protector end cap, and the Orca Hardware OED85 Series 36 inch fire rated rim device, also exit only. The BEST Precision 2105 is a wide stile fire rated rim device sized for 36 inch doors and is reversible for all functions and trims, with pull trim available as 1705A, 1705B or 1705C grip. If the opening needs a keyed or trimmed function rather than push-to-exit only, the 2105 covers that where the two exit-only devices do not.
7) I need a fire rated rim device for a 48 inch door, not 36 inch. What are my options?
The BEST Precision 2105 in the 36 inch size is built for doors up to 4 feet wide with a standard configuration for 3 foot wide, 1-3/4 inch thick doors. For a full 48 inch leaf, the Marks USA M9900F 48 inch fire rated rim panic exit device is an exit only fire rated option sized for that width. Verify the touchbar covers at least half the door width per code for your opening.
8) Is an SDC push bar or switch bar the same thing as the BEST Precision 2105 rim exit device?
No, and this is a common mix-up. The SDC MSB550 Series 36 inch mechanical switch bar releases an electromagnetic lock, and the SDC PSB560 SureExit pressure sense bar works the same way through tri-failsafe electronics; neither is fire rated and neither latches the door itself. The BEST Precision 2105 is a mechanical rim exit device with a deadlocking stainless steel latchbolt at 3/4 inch throw and its own strike, fire rated to UL10C. If you need the door to latch mechanically, the switch bars are not a substitute.
9) What is a comparable fire rated wide stile rim exit device to the BEST 2105?
The closest cross-brand match is the Sargent 8800 Series fire rated wide stile rim device, which is Grade 1 and also offered with request-to-exit and motorized latch retraction. The Marks USA M9900F is another fire rated 36 inch rim device but is exit only, so it will not take outside trim. For a non-rated wide stile opening, the Corbin Russwin ED5200 and TownSteel ED1100 are Grade 1 alternatives.
10) Do I need to order the BEST 2105 handed?
No. The 2105 is reversible for all functions and trims, with field selectable functions, so one device covers left and right hand openings and can be set in the field rather than specified up front.
11) What trim options come with the BEST Precision 2105, and can I order it as a device only?
Trim is 1705A, 1705B, or 1705C pull trim, differing by grip style, or you can take the device alone with no trim for an exit-only opening. Exit only means no outside operation at all, so if anyone needs to get back in through that door you need one of the pull trims plus a cylinder.
12) What is the difference between the BEST Precision 2105 and the Dexter ED1000 fire rated rim exit device?
Both are Grade 1 fire rated rim exit devices for metal doors. The Dexter ED1000-R-F-EO is the fire rated version of the ED1000 series, while the non-fire ED1000 rim devices are offered in 3 foot and 4 foot sizes. The BEST Precision 2105 covers 36 inch wide stile doors, is reversible for all functions with field selectable functions, and offers cylinder dogging, hex dogging or less dogging along with ten finishes from 605 bright brass to 690 statuary dark bronze. Note that dogging is not used on fire rated openings, so specify accordingly.
13) What is the difference between a touchbar device like the BEST Precision 2105 and a crossbar rim device?
The BEST Precision 2105 is a touchbar device: a full-width push touchbar with a 39-15/16 inch standard touchbar height from floor, wide stile, fire rated. Crossbar alternatives include the Corbin Russwin ED3200, a Grade 1 48 inch crossbar rim exit device for wide stile doors, and the CRL Jackson 1095 Series 48 inch crossbar rim panic device, which is exit only and not fire rated. Crossbar devices project further from the door face; touchbar devices sit flatter and are generally preferred where a door is in a traffic path.
14) If I do not need a fire rating, is there a simpler wide stile rim device than the BEST Precision 2105?
Yes. For a non-labeled 36 inch wide stile opening, the TownSteel ED1100 is a heavy duty Grade 1 panic rim exit device and the Corbin Russwin ED2200 is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device in exit only. Both are non-fire rated. The BEST Precision 2105 adds UL10C and UBC 7-2 fire listing plus a center driven cam that accepts the tailpiece of access control products with a minimum 50 degree rotation, which matters if the door is going on a card reader later.
15) What should I order instead of the BEST Precision 2105 if the door needs concealed vertical rods rather than a rim strike?
Rim devices latch into a surface strike on the frame stop; if the frame or a pair of doors will not take that, go to a vertical rod device. The Hager 4501 Series 36 inch concealed vertical rod exit device with wide stile pushpad is Grade 1 and matches the wide stile pushpad style, and the Hager 4601 is the narrow stile equivalent. Both are non-fire rated. The BEST Precision 2105 is a rim device for 36 inch wide stile doors and is fire rated.
16) What finishes does the BEST 2105 exit device come in for matching other doors in a building?
Ten finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 oil-rubbed satin bronze, 622 matte black, 625 bright chrome, 626W weatherized satin chrome, 628 satin aluminum, 630 satin stainless steel, and 690 statuary dark bronze. For an exterior opening the 626W weatherized chrome pairs with the weatherized monitoring switch options.
17) How high does the touchbar on the BEST 2105 sit off the floor?
Standard touchbar height is 39-15/16 inches from the floor, which puts it in the usual mounting band for panic hardware and matters when you are standardizing bar heights across a run of doors in one corridor.
