This NSP EX100089 rim exit strike is a door hardware component engineered to receive the latchbolt of a rim exit device, facilitating secure and compliant emergency egress. It is surface-mounted directly onto the door frame or mullion, eliminating the need for cutting into the frame during installation. The strike is compatible with standard rim exit devices (panic bars) and ensures that the door latches automatically upon closure. Constructed from durable materials to withstand repeated impact, it typically includes a shim plate to allow for precise alignment and adjustment for varying door gaps. Rim exit strikes are essential for commercial and institutional applications such as schools, hospitals, and offices, where they contribute to both security and unhindered emergency exit.
