Hager 45PT Exit Trim - Classroom Thumb Piece  (Less Mortise Cylinder) 

The Hager 45PT is a heavy-duty, high-security exterior trim designed for use with the Hager 4500 Series exit devices. Operating as a Classroom Function (ANSI 05), this hardware features an ergonomic thumb piece pull that can be locked or unlocked by an external key. When the cylinder is unlocked, the thumb piece is active and operates the exit device for entry. When locked, the thumb piece is rigid, preventing unauthorized access while ensuring the interior panic bar always provides free egress for building occupants.

Institutional Security and Access Management

The Hager 45PT is engineered for high-use environments where keyed access control is required without the footprint of a traditional lever. It is a premier choice for school entrances, hospital corridors, and municipal buildings. By utilizing a thumb piece instead of a lever, the trim offers a lower profile that is more resistant to "hanging" or "climbing" vandalism. For facility managers, this trim provides a durable, keyed entrance solution that integrates seamlessly into a master key system.

Heavy-Duty Construction and Secure Mounting

As a flagship component of the Hager 4500 Series, the 45PT is built to ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 standards, ensuring it can withstand over one million cycles of operation. The massive 3" x 14" escutcheon plate is constructed from heavy-gauge zinc or stainless steel to resist environmental wear. To prevent the hardware from loosening or sagging under the stress of 24/7 commercial traffic, it is installed with a robust thru-bolt system, creating a permanent, rigid bond through the door leaf.
