Pro-Installer FAQ
Can this device be cut down for narrower doors?
Yes, the pushbar can be field-cut for doors narrower than standard width. Measure carefully and cut from the hinge end only. The lock stile end must remain factory length for proper strike engagement.
Does Detex cover this under warranty?
Detex provides a limited lifetime warranty on mechanical components and 3 years on electronic components. This covers manufacturing defects — not field damage or improper installation.
