BEST A102-002 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What door width and jamb does the BEST Arm-A-Dor A102-002 fit?
The A102-002 is built for doors 3 feet to 4 feet wide with a 6-3/4 inch jamb. If your opening is a narrower door or the jamb depth differs, this is the wrong model in the Arm-A-Dor line for it.
2) Do I need to specify left hand or right hand for the Arm-A-Dor A102-002?
No handing to specify. The A102-002 is non-handed, so one part number covers both swings. That is useful if you stock spares across a portfolio of openings instead of carrying a left and a right.
3) How does the Arm-A-Dor latch differ from a normal rim exit device with a strike?
Instead of a latchbolt dropping into a strike, the Arm-A-Dor uses two-point solid steel deadbolt latching, with a locking bar that extends onto the door frame. That is why it holds up where a conventional rim device gets pried. If your opening already has a rim strike installed, this device does not use it.
4) Does the A102-002 have an alarm built in, or do I need a separate alarm kit?
The alarm is integrated into the A102-002, so there is no add-on kit to order. It includes manual relock, meaning after an exit the device is reset by hand rather than resetting itself.
5) Will this exit device hold up to a pry attack on a retail back door?
That is the application it was built for. Four-point thru-bolt mounting ties the device through the door rather than relying on surface screws, and the steel deadbolts throw into the frame. The Arm-A-Dor line is in service at many of the nation's largest retailers for back-of-house and stockroom exits.
6) Can people still get out in a fire if the Arm-A-Dor is locked from outside?
Yes. It is an exit-only device: locked against entry from the outside while anyone inside pushes and leaves. The alarm sounds on that exit, which is the point for stockroom and rear doors.
7) Does the Arm-A-Dor A102-002 come assembled or do I build it up on site?
It ships pre-assembled as a complete unit. Field work is templating the thru-bolt holes, drilling the door, bolting the device on, then setting up the alarm and relock and testing deadbolt engagement.
8) Is there an installation document for the BEST Arm-A-Dor exit device?
Yes, BEST publishes Arm-A-Dor installation instructions covering the drilling template, thru-bolt mounting and alarm setup. Work from those for hole locations and torque rather than eyeballing the layout, since the thru-bolts go all the way through the door.
9) Is the Arm-A-Dor A102-002 suitable for a residential door?
No. It is a commercial-duty device aimed at warehouse, distribution, industrial and retail exits. For a house or an apartment unit door it is heavier hardware than the opening calls for.
