An exit device has one job that matters: somebody leaning on it in the dark gets out. Everything else is secondary. Most of what gets reported as a dead bar is not a dead device — it is a latch that no longer meets its keeper because the frame moved, a device dogged open one morning and forgotten, or a closer that has stopped bringing the door properly home. Those get put right rather than replaced, and that is the cheaper half of this page.
When a device is genuinely finished it gets replaced with one that suits the door and the traffic, and the difference between a shop door used forty times a day and a packing shed man-door used four hundred is real. On doors that face the weather the exterior trim and the latch take dust and damp, so the finish gets chosen with that in mind.
There is a line through the middle of this work. The bar, the latch and the keeper are mechanical and they are ours. Anything alarmed, anything on delayed egress and anything wired back to a fire panel is not, and touching it without the company that maintains it is how a building ends up non-compliant. Tell us on the call if the door is monitored and the visit gets planned around that.
Work runs $269 to $699 per door with the $89 service call inside it. A rebuild or a realignment sits well below a replacement, which is why the range is wide. Where several doors are done in one visit the second and third sit lower, because the van and the technician are already there.
All sixteen jobs and their ranges are on this page, and so is the hour. Say what time it is and what happened, and the range closes to one figure on the call with the hour already counted in.

FAQ
Panic Bars & Exit Devices: quick answers
The bar pushes but the door will not stay shut. New device?+
Usually not. Nine times out of ten the frame has moved a few millimetres and the latch is now catching the edge of the keeper instead of its middle, which is an adjustment rather than a purchase. If the device really is worn out you will be shown why before anything is ordered.
Does doing three doors together save anything?+
Yes. The $89 visit is counted once for the stop and the second and third doors sit lower in the range because the van and the technician are already there. Worth batching if more than one has been annoying you.
