ABH 6819Q Low Profile Quiet Push/Pull Latchset | Satin Stainless Steel

The ABH 6819Q is a Grade 1, professional-grade low profile quiet push/pull latchset specifically engineered for healthcare, commercial, and institutional environments where noise reduction is critical. Known as the "Quiet Hospital Latch," the 6819Q achieves zero decibel ambient noise gain during operation, making it the premier solution for push/pull latches in patient rooms, corridors, and surgical suites. This unit combines a sleek, modern aesthetic with a patented linear acting cam for the smoothest, most reliable door operation available.

Whisper-Quiet Performance & Superior Durability

The 6819Q series is designed to eliminate the metallic "clack" associated with standard push/pull hardware, promoting a healing environment and reducing acoustic disturbance:

• Zero Decibel Operation: The "Q" (Quiet) designation ensures the latch retracts and extends without adding any measurable noise to the room, essential for 24-hour facility management.
  
• Patented Linear Acting Cam: Unlike traditional pivot cams that can bind or feel "notchy," this linear design provides a consistent, fluid motion that requires less than 5 lbs of force, ensuring it meets ADA requirements for accessibility.
  
• Four Thru-Bolt Mounting: The trim is secured using four thru-bolts rather than surface screws, providing maximum stability and preventing the hardware from pulling loose or sagging over time—a permanent solution for door edge reinforcement.
  
• One Continuous Spring: Features a single, heavy-duty internal spring that balances both handles simultaneously for an extended service life and consistent tactile feedback.
  

Low Profile Design & Installation Flexibility

Designed to stay out of the way while remaining easy to operate, the ABH 6819Q features a compact footprint without sacrificing strength:

• Low Profile Projection: With a cover projection of only 7/8" and a handle projection of 2-5/8", this unit reduces the risk of equipment snags (like hospital carts or stretchers) in narrow corridors.
  
• Field-Reversible Handing: While handing is requested at order placement for precision, the unit is easily field-reversible by simply rotating the cam holder assembly on the backside, providing an adaptable solution for commercial door security.
  
• Round Cover Aesthetics: Comes standard with the stylish Round Cover (suffix “RC”) in a beautiful US32D Satin Stainless Steel finish, which is naturally corrosion-resistant and easy to sanitize.
  
• Fire Rated Safety: UL Listed in the U.S. and Canada for use on fire-rated doors (90 minutes or less), accommodating openings up to 4’0” x 8’0”.
