The Maverick HA8LP Commercial Wood Door Automatic Opener Kit is a completelow-energy automatic door solution designed to automate an existing compatiblecommercial wood door equipped with a rim panic bar. This package combinesthe Maverick HA8LP automatic swing door operator, two wireless handicap activation buttons,and a rim electric strike to provide coordinated automatic unlocking and automaticdoor operation.
Unlike a package designed for a panic bar that remains mechanically dogged in the unlockedposition, this system is designed for applications where the rim panic device remainslatched when the door is closed. When an activation button is pressed, the electric strikereleases the panic hardware before the Maverick HA8LP begins opening the door.
This makes the package an excellent choice for offices, schools, medical facilities,commercial buildings, institutional facilities, and other locations where an existingcommercial wood door with rim exit hardware needs to be converted to automatic operation.
This is an automatic door opener and electrification package intended foruse with a compatible commercial wood door equipped with a rim panic bar.The commercial wood door, door frame, and rim panic bar are not included.The image of a complete door opening may be shown for application reference only.
This package combines the primary components needed to automate and electrically releasea compatible commercial wood door with rim panic hardware.
This package is specifically configured for a commercial wood door usingrim-mounted panic or exit hardware. Rim panic devices use a latch mountedon the surface of the door that engages a strike at the door frame.
When converting this type of opening to automatic operation, the panic device must bereleased before the automatic operator attempts to open the door. The included rim electricstrike provides the electrically controlled release needed for the automatic opening cycle.
This allows the panic bar to remain latched during normal operation instead of requiringthe exit device to remain mechanically dogged in the unlocked position.
The key advantage of this package is the ability to coordinate the electric strike withthe Maverick HA8LP automatic door operator.
A typical activation cycle operates as follows:
This coordinated sequence allows the opening to remain positively latched when closed whilestill providing convenient automatic push-button operation.
At the heart of this package is the Maverick HA8LP, a commerciallow-energy automatic swing door operator designed for the majority of standard commercialdoor applications.
The HA8LP combines a powerful 1/8 HP motor with a low-profile operator design andcommercial-grade drivetrain. Its onboard controls provide adjustment and integrationcapabilities for activation devices, safety devices, and electrified locking hardware.
The package includes two commercial stainless steel wireless handicap activationbuttons, allowing an activation point to be installed on each side of the opening.
Each 4.75" x 4.75" push plate features durable stainless steel construction and ispaired with a wireless 433 MHz transmitter. The transmitters communicate with the includedreceiver connected to the Maverick HA8LP.
The included rim electric strike is what separates this package from abasic automatic door opener kit. It is intended to provide electrically controlled releasefor compatible rim panic hardware so the door can remain latched when it is not beingautomatically operated.
When the HA8LP receives an activation command, its lock-control capability can be used torelease the electric strike as part of the automatic opening sequence. This allows theoperator to begin opening the door after the panic hardware has been released.
Proper compatibility between the electric strike, panic hardware, door frame, electricalrequirements, and desired locking function should always be verified for the specificopening.
A doggable panic bar can be mechanically held in the retracted position, leaving the doorunlatched. That configuration can work well when the door is intended to remain unlockedwhile automatic operation is enabled.
This rim electric strike package is designed for applications where thepanic hardware needs to remain latched when the door is closed. The electric strike providescontrolled release only when the automatic door system is activated.
If your commercial wood door has a doggable panic bar and you intend to leave the panichardware mechanically dogged during automatic operation, an electric strike may not benecessary. Select the package that matches the intended operation of your opening.
The Maverick HA8LP commercial wood door package can be used on compatible openings in manycommercial and institutional facilities, including:
This package is an excellent solution for converting a compatible existing commercial wooddoor to automatic operation without purchasing an entirely new door and frame assembly.
The Maverick HA8LP mounts at the opening and operates the existing door through theappropriate arm assembly. The wireless handicap buttons provide activation, while the rimelectric strike allows compatible panic hardware to release during the automatic openingcycle.
The result is a complete automatic door system built around the existing commercial wooddoor opening.
