About this item
The Adams Rite 3001-11-US32D is the round tubular fixed pull trim for Adams Rite mortise and rim exit devices - no cylinder hole, satin stainless steel finish, the outside entry pull on doors where key access is not required at the outside trim. If you searched "adams rite door closer" or "adams rite door" - this product is the outside pull handle for Adams Rite exit device doors, not a door closer. The difference matters for ordering, and it is addressed directly below.
"Adams Rite Door Closer": What You Are Actually Looking For
If you landed on this page searching "adams rite door closer" - Adams Rite does not manufacture door closers. Adams Rite makes deadlatches, deadlocks, exit devices, and exit device trim for narrow-stile aluminum glass doors and hollow metal/wood commercial doors. A door closer is the hydraulic overhead device that controls door swing speed and return - that is a separate product category and a different manufacturer.
The 3001-11-US32D is the outside fixed pull handle installed on the door face above or alongside Adams Rite exit device trim. It is what the outside user grips to pull the door open from outside when the lock is in the unlocked state. It is not a latch, not a lock, and not a closer.
3001-11-US32D Model Decoded: Every Part of the Part Number
No competitor page decodes the Adams Rite 3000 Series pull numbering. Here is what each element means:
3001 - The round tubular pull design in the Adams Rite 3000 Series exit device trim line. Round tubular means the pull is a cylindrical bar - the classic round grab rail profile. The 3002 is the flat pull alternative in the same series. The 3001 round profile is the most widely specified on commercial aluminum glass doors.
11 - The device and cylinder configuration code. The two-digit suffix encodes both the compatible device type and whether a cylinder hole is present:
First digit (1, 2, 3) - Device type: 1 = Mortise and Rim exit devices, 2 = CVR (Concealed Vertical Rod) exit devices, 3 = SVR (Surface Vertical Rod) exit devices.
Second digit (1, 2) - Cylinder hole: 1 = Without cylinder hole (this listing), 2 = With cylinder hole.
So 11 = mortise/rim + no cylinder hole. 21 = mortise/rim + with cylinder hole. 12 = CVR + no cylinder hole. 22 = CVR + with cylinder hole. 13 = SVR + no cylinder hole. 23 = SVR + with cylinder hole. Ordering the wrong device-type suffix means the pull mounting geometry will not align with the exit device hardware. Ordering the wrong cylinder-hole suffix means you either have an unused hole in the escutcheon or cannot install the cylinder you need.
US32D - Satin stainless steel finish (US32D = 630 finish code). The standard commercial finish for satin stainless. Also the most corrosion-resistant standard finish for exterior or high-humidity applications.
Without Cylinder Hole: When to Specify the 3001-11 vs 3001-21
This is the most common ordering decision on pull trim and the question no competitor page answers clearly.
3001-11 - Without cylinder hole (this listing): The outside pull face has no cylinder opening. There is no provision for a key cylinder on the outside. This is correct when outside entry is controlled by a separate device - a deadlatch with its own outside cylinder, an access control reader, or any application where the pull is used purely as a grip and not as a cylinder housing. The pull allows pulling the door open when unlocked; it provides no key control.
3001-21 - With cylinder hole: The pull escutcheon has a 1-1/8-inch opening for a mortise cylinder. This is correct when the outside key control is to be located in the pull trim itself - typically when the pull is paired with a rim exit device and the cylinder in the pull controls the outside access.
If your installation has a separate Adams Rite deadlatch (4900 or 4500 series) or MS deadlock providing outside key control at a different location on the door, use the 3001-11 without cylinder hole. If the outside cylinder must mount in the pull trim, use the 3001-21.
Fixed Pull vs Entry Trim: The Product Category Context
The 3001-11 is a fixed pull - it is a passive grip, not a lever or operating handle. Turning or pressing it does nothing mechanically. It is the outside grip that allows pulling the door toward you. The door releases because the inside exit device (mortise or rim device) is in the unlatched state or because the deadlatch is unlocked - not because the pull itself operates any mechanism.
Entry trim with cylinder and lever (such as the Adams Rite 3080 series) is the alternative when outside lever operation of the lock is required. The 3001 fixed pull is the simpler, lower-profile solution for openings where outside entry is controlled by a separate cylinder location or access control device.
Compatible Devices and Door Types
The 3001-11 is compatible with Adams Rite mortise and rim exit devices. This includes the 8700, 3700, 8900, and 3900 rim exit device families, and mortise exit device configurations. It is not compatible with CVR (concealed vertical rod) or SVR (surface vertical rod) devices - those require the 3001-12 (CVR, no hole) or 3001-13 (SVR, no hole).
Compatible door types include hollow metal doors and wood doors. Non-handed - the same pull installs on left-hand and right-hand doors without modification.
