Trimming the panic bar to size:The actual bar that goes between the two handles is provided ready for sizing. To shorten the bar simply cut it with a hack saw or miter saw to the length needed. Drill a 3/16 hole in the bar for the set screw and attach it to the handles.
Changing from right to left hand mounting:There is no top or bottom to this panic exit bar. If the bar is rotated 180 degrees the latch will then face the other way for right or left-hand mounting.
Latching and mounting:This panic bar is surface mounted. The panic bar will be placed on the rear face of the door. The strike goes on the door frame behind the door, not on the inside of the frame where you may have previously had a handle. If the door has a handle that will need to be removed. Caps are available for the hole left behind after the handle is removed. Door jamb brackets are also available to cover where the old handle latched to the frame. Mounting bolts are provided however depending on the material of the door you may switch to the same diameter in wood screws, self-tapping metal screws, or for added strength - sex bolts. (Sex bolts have a female side on the outside of the door and a male side on the inside of the door and then they join in the middle of the door. Since both faces of the door are used for securing the bar it makes for a secure hold.)
Optional products associated with this bar (purchased separately):
Gate Boxes. Use a gate box for gate applications. Gate boxes are designed to house Lockey keyless entry locks and can be mounted on both new and existing gate configurations. Available in both aluminum and steel, LockeyUSA offers a compatible gate box for most of their mechanical keyless entry systems.
Door Closer. There are a couple of variations of door closers with a few different features however the main purpose is the same; to make sure the door stays closed. Because this door will always latch to the strike this is a popular addition to ensure the door stays closed and locked.
Keyless Panic Trims and other Trims. If you need access from outside you must buy one of these accessories or the door will only be able to be opened from the inside using the panic bar. PanicExitPro offers LockeyUSA keyless locks, which take the place of the keyed cylinder and is most commonly used on panic devices. Lockey also has a variety of simple to install trims.
