BEST A101-015 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Arm-A-Dor A101-015 fit my door if the jamb is wider than 5-3/4 inches?
No. The A101-015 is built for 4 foot doors with jambs measuring 5-1/4 to 5-3/4 inches. Outside that jamb range the locking bar will not land correctly on the frame, since this device throws a deadbolt onto the jamb instead of into a strike pocket. Measure the jamb before you order; if yours falls outside 5-1/4 to 5-3/4 inches you need a different Arm-A-Dor configuration.
2) Do I have to specify left or right hand when ordering the Arm-A-Dor A101-015?
No handing to specify. The A101-015 ships pre-assembled and non-handed, so the same unit works on a left or right hand opening. That makes it straightforward for a property manager standardizing several back doors, since you order one part number regardless of swing.
3) How does the Arm-A-Dor maximum security exit device lock differently from a regular rim exit device?
A conventional rim device latches a pullman latch into a strike mounted on the frame. The Arm-A-Dor A101-015 instead uses two-point solid steel deadbolt latching, throwing a locking bar onto the door frame itself. That spreads the resistance across two points on the frame rather than one strike, which is why it gets specified on retail back doors and warehouse exits where pry attacks and internal theft are the concern. If you just need code-compliant egress on an interior opening, a standard rim device is the simpler choice.
4) Does the A101-015 Arm-A-Dor need a separate alarm kit or door contact?
No separate alarm. The alarm is built into the A101-015 along with automatic relock, so pushing the device sounds the alert and the unit re-secures itself without anyone going back to reset a lock. You are ordering one pre-assembled unit, not a device plus an add-on alarm module.
5) What door prep does the Arm-A-Dor A101-015 require, and can it go on an existing door?
Four thru-bolt holes, drilled from templates the manufacturer supplies. The A101-015 mounts with a four-point thru-bolt system that clamps through the door rather than relying on screws into the door face, which is the reason it resists pull-off attacks. Because it is non-handed and arrives pre-assembled, it retrofits an existing 4 foot door as readily as it goes on new construction, provided the jamb measures 5-1/4 to 5-3/4 inches. Full hole locations and torque values are in the Arm-A-Dor installation instructions.
6) What happens after someone pushes out through an Arm-A-Dor exit door?
The door re-secures itself. Automatic relock means the deadbolt bar resets when the door closes, so a propped or used exit does not leave the opening unlocked until staff notice. Paired with the built-in alarm, that is the loss prevention pattern the A101-015 is bought for: you get told it opened, and the door locks itself back down.
7) Does the A101-015 come with everything needed, or do I order trim and a strike separately?
It comes complete. The A101-015 arrives as a pre-assembled unit ready to mount with its four thru-bolts. There is no frame strike to order, because the deadbolt bar extends onto the jamb rather than entering a strike, and no exterior trim is part of this configuration.
8) Is the Arm-A-Dor A101-015 suitable for a home or garage door?
It is a commercial device. The A101-015 is specified for commercial use, on things like retail rear entrances, industrial emergency exits, and multi-tenant service doors. The four-point thru-bolt mounting and steel deadbolt bar are sized for that kind of abuse, not for a residential opening.
