The 4781-021-313 from Adams Rite is a two-point deadlatch with paddle and standard rod in dark bronze anodized. The 4781 Series Deadlatch latches to header and threshold allowing both door leaves to remain active. It is designed for paired out swinging narrow stile doors and is also suitable for single doors. There is no need to pin one door with flushbolts or other devices. The paddle is a modified version of the 4591 Deadlatch Paddle and the concealed vertical rod mechanism is the same as used in Adams Rite’s 8600 Series Exit Devices. However, the 4781 Two-Point Deadlatch is not intended to substitute for an exit device which must have a door-spanning bar.
