Hager’s New 4500 Series Grade 1 Exit Devices Offer Greater Quality and Value for Commercial Door Hardware Applications

St. Louis, MO—Hager Companies’ new 4500 Series Grade 1 Exit Devices give architects, commercial builders and anyone who specifies commercial door hardware a combination of quality and value that‘s unique in the marketplace — along with industry-exclusive lifetime warranties.

Like many of Hager’s Grade 1 door hardware products, these new ANSI/BHMA certified 4500 Series Exit Devices are constructed of superior materials like die cast caps and head covers. They also offer many standard features costing extra on other brands that also make these exit devices easier for contractors to install.

For example, thru-bolts are included with every model, as well as both wood and metal screws. These new exit devices also feature slotted strikes, allowing an installer to make easy adjustments to align the latch with the strike. A non-handed design offers added versatility. And escutcheon trim, with the locking mechanism built inside, reduces door preparation by requiring fewer holes in the door.

Hager’s Grade 1 4500 Series Exit Devices meet UL specifications for panic devices. They are also available in models fire rated for up to 3 hours.

Founded in 1849, St. Louis-based Hager Companies continues its more than 150-year history of providing quality and innovation in the door hardware industry. For additional information, visit www.hagerco.com.
