Compatibility
The CG-EX is Exit Bar compatible. The lock retrofits VON DUPRIN 99, Cal-Royal 98 and all the copycats of that same footprint. The unit is flexible, comes with two backplates and can accommodate most major brands. In the event of an off-brand device, a professional installer using the appropriate cover and mounting plates can install this unit with most ANY RIM DEVICE.
Please note, the CG-EX is NOT COMPATIBLE with any vertical rod device at this time.

Prep Door for 700 Series Install
Using the drilling template, prep your door to fit the 7i-EX mounting hole requirements. The door pictured here was previously fitted with a lever and deadbolt, so a cover plate will be utilized to cover old cross boreholes.
Check the measurements on the template with a ruler before drilling your door.
Use a cover plate if needed to cover exposed holes from previous lock installation.
