A: I see that is the face of the door -

I would simply stick with a vertical rod exit device meant for a narrow stile door.

The Corbin Russwin ED7400 as seen in the link below.

You probably need to come up with a special bracket to mount the top strike to but at least this way you'll comply with code:

A: I didn't realize initially that you had wanted electric control over the opening. The device that I might recommend will be based on how you're going to get power to the opening. What are your thoughts on running power all the way to that door through a stacking set of accordion doors? I understand that you have access to power above the door but the power has to come from the wall on the outside end of the opening. Meaning you have to transfer power from the wall through each of the doors to get to the door that you wish to electrify. You cannot use builders hardware electrified hinges because they won't work with these specialized hinges on those doors You likely cannot use armored door loops because they will not “look nice in the end” I would suggest that you install a magnetic lock and then use a touch sense bar with a request to exit switch that when you touch the bar it will open the circuit to the mag lock allowing exit - you certainly have to add a door closer the issue is going to be that cold will require a push button switch installed as well but the problem that you'll have is the location of the push button switch by definition of code will be too far away from the opening and then the other problem is when the power goes out your door would be unlocked.

If the current course of action is insisted on, you could install the Hager 2-679-0620 Power Transfer as seen here:
