installing a new fire-rated opening, please consult

(Authority Having Jurisdiction) to ensure
compliance with all applicable codes and ratings.

To Change Hands
Check Before Starting
Unreinforced Doors or Frames
Doors and Frames with walls having a structural
thickness (metal skin plus reinforcement or solid
hardwood) to engage less than (3) full screw threads
are considered unreinforced.
Unreinforced Doors: Use SNB (sex nuts and bolts).
Unreinforced Frames: Use Blind Rivet Nuts.
Recommended fasteners for unreinforced openings
are not necessarily supplied by Yale Locks and
Hardware.

Maintenance
1. Periodically remove covers and coat mechanisms with a silicone
base lubricant. This is particularly required in corrosive
environments for proper product function.
2. Check mounting fasteners periodically. Retighten if found loose.
Apply screw locking compound (available at automotive part
stores) or change part fasteners if screws continue to back out.
3. Periodic checks (and adjustments) of strikes are required to
compensate for changes in the opening (e.g. door sagging).
1. Mark Door
Door and frame must
meet structural and
dimensional specifications
on exit device template(s)
for door and frame
preparation.
For Pair without Mullion follow
instructions packed with 793 Strike.
Locate and Mark Horizontal and
Vertical Reference Centerlines as
shown.
