Abstract: A concealed exit device for mounting vertically within a door to cooperate with a threshold latch plate and an overhead latch plate in a door opening for latching and unlatching the door within the door opening. The concealed exit device includes a manually actuated member for mounting in a central portion of the door for manual movement from one side of the door between a normally biased position and an actuated position, upper and lower latching mechanisms for mounting in upper and lower ends of the door for movement between extended latched positions in cooperating latched relation with the overhead and threshold latch plates respectively and retracted unlatched positions out of cooperating relation with the latch plates.
