The Adams Rite RITE Touch® RT2050 is a surface-mounted digital door lock that provides convenient keyless access control for interior swinging and sliding glass doors. Its thin, low-profile design and mirrored touchscreen interface combine modern aesthetics with flexible access control for offices, conference rooms and other commercial interior glass openings.
Users can unlock the door with a PIN code entered on the 12-button capacitive touchscreen keypad, a MIFARE® RFID credential card or a registered biometric fingerprint. The RT2050 supports up to 450 user codes, 450 MIFARE credentials and 100 fingerprint users.
The lock is powered by four AA alkaline batteries, allowing it to operate as a standalone access-control solution without connecting wires. Its surface-mounted installation does not require drilling or modifying the glass.
Interior unlocking is available with either a knob or an ADA-compliant accessibility lever. The lever version is offered in left-hand and right-hand configurations, so the proper handing must be selected when ordering.
The RITE Touch RT2050 is intended for interior applications only.

Can the RT2050 handing be reversed in the field?
No. The RT2050 is not field reversible. Confirm the door handing before ordering.
Does the RT2050 require drilling through the glass?

What batteries does the RT2050 use?

How long should the batteries last?
Adams Rite estimates approximately one year of battery life based on ten uses per day. Actual battery life may vary with usage and operating conditions.
Does the RT2050 connect to an access-control system?
No. The RT2050 is a standalone, battery-operated glass-door lock and cannot be integrated into an existing access-control system.
Does the RT2050 provide an audit trail?
No. The RT2050 does not provide audit-trail capabilities.
Is the RT2050 available with Aperio wireless access control?
According to Adams Rite’s current RT2050 FAQ, an Aperio version is not available.
Is a remote-release option available?
According to Adams Rite’s current RT2050 FAQ, the remote-release option is not currently available for purchase.
What happens if I forget the user code?
The RT2050 can be restored to its factory-default settings. Follow the reset procedure provided in the official installation instructions.
Can individual RFID cards be added or deleted?
Yes, but all active cards must be presented when adding or deleting individual cards. This means all credentials currently in circulation must be collected and available when making the change.
Can the RT2050 be installed on a building’s main entrance?
The RT2050 is a deadbolt intended for indoor use. Consult the local Authority Having Jurisdiction before installing it on a main entrance or any opening subject to life-safety, fire, accessibility, or egress requirements.
Is the RT2050 a good replacement for a wired access-control lock?
The RT2050 can provide standalone keypad, RFID, and fingerprint access without connection to a wired access-control system. However, it does not offer system integration or audit-trail capabilities, so it should not be represented as a direct replacement when those features are required.
