The DAC Industries 10037-KIT equips a gate with an Advantex alarmed exit device to provide both safe egress and audible notification the moment the bar is actuated. The built-in alarm helps deter unauthorized exits and alerts staff—ideal for retail yards, campuses, or amenity enclosures (verify local code). A 24" adjustable plate spans common frame widths for fast layout, while the receiver bracket is designed for a 3" O.D. latch post to simplify strike alignment. Select a 36" (#10006) or 48" (#10008) device to match opening width and visibility needs, then secure with the included stainless fasteners for a clean, field-friendly install.
