Reinstall spring cage and secure with screws.

2. MARK AND DRILL MOUNTING HOLES FOR ESCUTHEON TRIM

  • A. Mark horizontal centerline by matching it to exit device centerline, which can be found on the push side of door.
  • B. Apply template to door using centerline. Refer to Applications section on page 1 to determine the location of the vertical centerline. Vertical centerline should match exit device vertical centerline located on push side of door.
  • C. Mark and drill 1/2" holes for mounting posts as shown on template. (Skip to step "E" for Night Latch Trim model.)
  • D. Mark and drill a 5/8" hole for trim actuator shaft, which mates with exit device (not required for 45DT). See exit device instructions for further details.
  • E. Mark and drill a 1-5/8" hole, centered 0.24" above horizontal centerline, for the Night Latch Trim model only. See Night Latch (NL) Trim template for more details.

1. ADJUST TELESCOPING ACTUATING SHAFT (For BE and CE Trim only)

A. The telescoping actuating shaft assembly is preset at the factory for a 1-3/4" thick door. For thicker door applications, pull out the center crosshair shaft until it clicks into the appropriate position. There are 5 click-in-place positions: 1-3/4", 2", 2-1/4", 2-1/2", and 3". For other door/shim kit thicknesses, use the closest option.

B. Check for proper engagement with exit device in the next step.

2. INSTALL ESCUTHEON TRIM

  • A. Insert trim mounting posts and actuating shaft through door.
  • Mate trim actuating shaft with cam on back of exit device.
  • C. Secure from push side of door with provided 1-4"-20 screws.
  • D. Test installation by rotating lever handle or key to verify trim.

NOTE: Dummy Trim is only for pulling door--handle does not rotate.
