Specification Sheet

Designed for greater key control, the 1870 Cylinder-
Operated Flushbolt for aluminum stile doors prevents
accidental locking of the inactive leaf of paired doors.
1870 Cylinder-
Operated Flushbolt
Function
Designed for use instead of conventional flip-lever operated flushbolts, the
1870 Cylinder-Operated Flushbolt gives building management key control of
the inactive leaf of paired doors. Prevents casual locking of the inactive leaf by
children or other unauthorized persons. Uses same basic over-center action
mechanism as MS
®
pivoted bolt deadlocks. Recommended for installation at
both top and bottom of inactive door with MS1850S Deadlock in active door for
greatest security. May be installed to lock at threshold or at header.
Operation
360° turn of key throws or retracts the hex-section bolt. Key
can be removed only when bolt is in a positively locked or
unlocked position. Accepts any standard 1-5/32" mortise
cylinder from either or both sides. Cylinder must have MS
®
dimensioned cam (see CYLINDERS).

Narrow stile doors require a trim ring to fill the gap remaining between the cylinder
shoulder and stile when a standard mortise cylinder is used. If the security of the
hardened steel Adams Rite MS4043 Cylinder Guard is not required, this ring may be
simply a length of 1.171 I.D. tubing. Its length varies depending on door thickness or
cylinder make and number of pins. The specific length required can be quickly
determined by the following formula:
