Emergency Egress (Optional Feature)
The Emergency Egress feature provides a simple and convenient means of exiting a RollSeal RS-500/600 Door from
the inside of the structure should the door motor become inoperative due to a power failure or other conditions.
24.1
Installation
Install the Egress Tool Retainer (1040-8400) to the left or right side outside of door jamb. For a wood framed
door jambs use #10 x1
screw (1004-1386). For a metal framed door jamb use #8x1/2 Tek screw (1004-2492).
See Diagram 32A.
The Egress Tool Tether (1040-8401) provides a means of attaching the egress hook to a location on the wall to
prevent loss of the egress hook. This tether provides up to eight feet of cable. It can be mounted anywhere
necessary to allow reach, hook, and pull of the Egress D-ring. The tether can be used on doors up to 10’ x 10’.
Attach the Tether with four (4) ¼” phillips screws (1004-2068).
