A sprinkler comprising: a body having a proximal portion defining an inlet and a distal portion defining an outlet, the body defining an internal passageway between the inlet and the outlet, the distal portion including an annular wall having an outer surface and an inner surface to further define a chamber distal of the outlet, the annular wall further includes a distal edge defining a distal opening at the distal end of the body in communication with the chamber; a deflector assembly including a deflector plate distal of the outlet disposed in a first position within the chamber, the deflector assembly includes a pair of telescopic arms to locate the deflector plate in the first position and a second position distal of the first position, the annular wall having a portion include two openings along a proximal edge disposed about the distal portion of the body, each of the pair of arms engaged with one of the two openings; and a closure assembly including: a closure element engaged with the deflector plate, a bridge engaged with the closure element, at least one lever member having a first end and a second end, the second end engaged with the distal portion of the body, wherein the closure assembly further includes: a thermally responsive plate assembly, the thermally responsive plate assembly having at least two overlapping plate members that define at least one opening, a lip portion of the thermally responsive plate assembly circumscribing an outer surface proximate the distal edge of the annular wall defining the distal opening; and the first end of the at least one lever member engaged with the thermally responsive plate assembly and received within the at least one opening, the at least one lever member biasing the bridge such that the closure element is disposed adjacent the outlet of the body and the closure element is axially displaced from the outlet of the body upon actuation of the thermally responsive plate assembly. a body having a proximal portion defining an inlet and a distal portion defining an outlet, the body defining an internal passageway between the inlet and the outlet, the distal portion including an annular wall having an outer surface and an inner surface to further define a chamber distal of the outlet, the annular wall further includes a distal edge defining a distal opening at the distal end of the body in communication with the chamber;
