• 15/16" x 4-1/4" radius face — flush-mounted profile blends with the door stile

Typical Applications

• Inactive leaf of aluminum storefront door pairs in retail, office, and commercial entry systems

Code & Compliance Notes

Manual flush bolts on inactive leaves of door pairs are permitted under IBC 1010.1.9.4 in qualifying occupancies (Groups B, F, S) and for pairs serving storage or mechanical rooms, provided the inactive leaf is not required as a means of egress. Always confirm the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) requirements and occupancy classification before specifying a manual flush bolt on a paired egress opening. For openings where the inactive leaf must remain part of the egress path, an automatic flush bolt may be required.
