Hager 4701 SVR Exit Device – Grade 1 Surface Vertical Rod for 48" Wide Doors
The Hager 4701 SVR Exit Device (48" x 84") is a high-performance, standard-duty security solution designed for wide commercial door openings up to 4 feet in width. While standard 36" devices are often insufficient for oversized entryways, this Surface Vertical Rod (SVR) system is factory-sized for 4'0" widths, providing the necessary coverage and leverage for wide corridors, retail main entrances, and school double doors.
As a BHMA Certified Grade 1 device—the highest industry benchmark for durability—the 4701 SVR provides robust multi-point security. By latching at both the top strike and the floor, this system prevents door prying and maintains the structural alignment of wide door leaves. The integrated Hex Key Dogging allows for easy push-pull operation during business hours, significantly reducing mechanical wear on the latches and rods.
Maximum Security for Wide Openings
The Surface Vertical Rod design is superior for wide doors as it anchors the door at two points away from the center. The system features stainless steel Pullman-type latchbolts that provide a smooth, automatic dead-latching action. To ensure a permanent and rigid installation on wide door leaves, this device ships standard with thru bolts, creating a secure through-the-door connection that handles the increased weight and force associated with 48-inch doors.
Key Features
- Wide Door Optimization: Sized specifically for 48" (4'0") door widths; can be field-cut for doors down to 37".
