Abstract
A door with an integrated exit device has an operational bar which at least partially extends across the door. The operational bar is located within a recess in the face of the door. The operational bar has at least one arm that extends into a channel, which is formed in cooperation with the recess. The door has a locking channel which extends along the vertical edge of the door. The locking channel is coupled to a vertical stile that is fixedly located on the vertical edge of the door. The locking channel and the vertical stile are pivotally coupled by a clip. A blocking member is located within the vertical stile. The operational bar has an actuator arm located within the door and within the vertical stile. As the operational bar is pushed inward, actuator arm pushes blocking member to an open position which also allows locking channel to pivot to an open position. If access is required from both sides of the door, a handle may be located outside of the door and coupled to the operational bar by a connection arm. The connection arm moves the operational bar in cooperation with movement of the handle.
