Figure 1 illustrates a section view of the through door mount (on a solid wood door). This configuration may be used on solid wood doors, hollow or solid metal doors, or chalk filled *fire doors.
*Note: The Electro-Mechanical Bar may not be used on a fire rated door that requires a fire rated latch! The EMB has no latch. Occasionally however, fire doors are permitted on openings where a fire rated barrier is not required. Use of the EMB should always be verified and approved through local building code and/or fire prevention agencies.
