Description
The Adams Rite 8703ELD-36-12 is a rim exit device engineered for 36-inch hollow metal or wood doors requiring ADA-compliant emergency egress. Its electric latch retraction with mechanical dogging solves the challenge of securing high-traffic entries while maintaining code-required panic hardware functionality for life safety.
This non-handed device fits standard 1.75-inch to 2.25-inch door thickness and doors up to 8 feet tall (10-foot kits available separately). The 12V electric system pairs with a field-reversible lever trim for flexible installation. As an authorized Adams Rite dealer, E.D. Locks provides expert guidance on cylinder selection, dogging options, and fire-rated compatibility. Contact sales@edlocks.com or 1-877-207-6067 for detailed specification sheets and keying support.
