Hager 8321 Double Door Egress Low Energy Operator – Simultaneous Pair

The Hager 8321 Double Door Egress Operator is a heavy-duty solution engineered specifically for high-traffic emergency exit routes and main entryways. This Simultaneous Pair Operator ensures that both door leaves activate in perfect synchronization, providing a wide, unobstructed path for egress that exceeds all ADA and life-safety requirements.

Designed for reliability in the most demanding environments, the 8321 features two independent motors housed in a single header. Each motor is capable of managing a 350 lb door leaf, making it the ideal choice for hospital corridors, school exits, and public assembly spaces. With a 3-hour UL/cUL fire rating, it provides essential protection for fire-rated openings without compromising on accessibility.

Advanced Safety & Sequencing Features

• Dual-Motor Logic: Each motor operates with its own 24 VDC onboard power supply, allowing for independent or simultaneous control of electric strikes, magnetic locks, and safety sensors.
• Fire Alarm Integration: Features a dedicated fire alarm input that shunts swing activations immediately upon signal, ensuring the doors remain closed during an alarm event unless manually overridden.
• Boost on Close Technology: Selectable power assist provides extra force during the final 10 degrees of closing, ensuring large double doors latch securely against high stack pressure or wind.
• Manual Closer Functionality: In the event of a power loss, the 8321 functions as a standard manual door closer, maintaining the building's fire and security perimeter.
• Emergency Blow-Open: Integrated contacts allow the operator to swing the doors to the fully open position for smoke ventilation when triggered by the building's fire control system.
