Fire Rated Exit Door Hardware

Fire Exit Hardware is an exit device which is tested for both panic and fire conditions and is required to be used on fire doors where panic hardware is required by code or desired for durability. Since fire doors require positive-latching, fire exit hardware does not incorporate mechanical dogging. If a push/pull function is desired for a fire door, electric latch retraction hardware may be installed, as long as the latch projects automatically upon fire alarm. 

The International Building Code (IBC) and NFPA 101 – The Life Safety Code contain similar requirements for locations where panic hardware is installed:

1.Panic hardware shall be listed in accordance with UL 305;

2.Fire exit hardware shall be listed in accordance with UL 10C and UL 305;

3.The actuating portion of the releasing device shall extend at least one-half of the door leaf width; and

4.The maximum unlatching force shall not exceed 15 pounds (67 N).

5.If balanced doors are used and panic hardware is required, the panic hardware shall be the push-pad type and the pad shall not extend more than one-half the width of the door measured from the latch side.
