Rim Exit Device[edit]

I have removed "Rim locks can be found on security exit doors with an exit device, also known as a panic hardware or fire exit hardware, that will sound an alarm when opened or unlock in the event of a fire. Rim exit devices have adjustments to counter the effects of door or door frame warping." because although this fire exit lock fixes to the surface of a door it is not a rim lock and so shouldn't be here.

Search Google. RIM itself means "Frame", so any lock on a "Frame" is a RIM Lock. Maybe change your entry to "Antique Rim Locks". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.168.203.3 (talk) 20:25, 21 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Rim locks are sold today and are called rim locks because rim lock is what that specific type of lock is called not because it describes how it fixs to a door even though it does describe it. It would be better for you to start a new article titled Emergency Exit Lock here so as not to confuse.English Lock (talk) 08:36, 26 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
