I have two requests for help that I can’t answer – I’m hoping someone out there in Locklandia can.
1) This all-glass door needs a new deadbolt. The original lock is long-gone, but this is the cut-out. Any ideas?
2) The bumper on this door is the only thing that’s keeping the lever from being knocked off by cart traffic. The problem? This is a fire door assembly and the bumper is not listed to UL 10C. Does anyone know of protective hardware like this that is listed for use on a fire door assembly?

Cut two oversized metal plate plates, one for each side
Bolt together in place
Drill hole for lock and install??
Something along those steps.
For the door, get rid of bumper and add a sign, you hit you pay or some other wording??
Automatic operator ??
For the glass door look at a CRL patch lock, but you need to know the glass thickness. I too am in need of a UL listed bumper.
Try looking at CR Laurence patch locks for the glass door. Cutout looks a lot like EUR680A
I know Rockwood makes a few different protection bars, but I am not sure if they are listed.
Fire door. Same problem we are having nothing we can find to protect the fire door that’s listed
Looks like a CRL EH100 plunger lock prep. Available in brass or chrome, for 1/4″ or 3/8″ glass. See link: http://www.crlaurence.com/crlapps/showline/offerpage.aspx?Productid=8461&GroupID=8624&History=39327:54973:8553&ModelID=8624
We just had the same issue on a project and the only labeled guards we could find were the Trimco PG8000 series. They are meant for exit devices but I suppose you could get creative.
Looks like a C.R. Laurence “EH” Series plunger lock notch, for 1/4″ or 3/8″ glass; Cat. No. EH100 brass or EH102 chrome finish.
Here is the pertinent spec section for an InPro Model 412 Lever Door Handle Protector. Hopefully it’s helpful.

I have used Rockwood HD2240 AND HD2250.The AHJ has accepted both be cause their are steel, although not officially labeled. Works well in medical facilities and residence buildings.
Trimco is the only company that has fire rated protection protectors. I asked several years ago Trimco was the only one who stepped up to the plate. Rockwood thought and probably still do think I am a lunatic. They were very befuddled through the whole conversation as why it had to be fire rated. I was dismissed. I have an extensive photo album non rated protectors. I just love what I do! In Tennessee they just say ” It will be alright” but in a southern draw all ran together.
As stated by others here I would definitely check CR Laurence glass door hardware section . As far as the door protection/bumpers as long as the material is non flammable and is secured in accordance with fire door assemblies it should be fine.
Hi guys! I just wanted to say thank you for the help with the glass door bolt. It is the CRL. Thanks again.
Check with Curran Engineering Products for the cart guard.
