Falcon HH1491DT 36IN US28 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the Falcon 1491DT dummy trim actually for, and does it operate the exit device?
The 1491DT is exterior pull trim only. Its function is Dummy and it is non-keyed, so the pull is fixed and does nothing to the latching. It gives a person a handle to grip on the outside of an aluminum storefront door fitted with a 1490 Series narrow stile concealed vertical rod device; entry is controlled some other way, by unlocking or dogging the device, by an electric option, or by leaving the door in a free state. If you need the outside pull to actually retract the latches, dummy trim is the wrong choice and you want a keyed or lever operating trim instead.
2) Do I have to specify hand when ordering Falcon 1490 Series dummy trim?
Handing is required, and there are two choices: RHR (right hand reverse) or LHR (left hand reverse). Exit doors are always reverse bevel, so stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your right it is RHR, on your left it is LHR. Get this wrong and the pull lands on the wrong side of the door face relative to the device.
3) Can I get Falcon 1490 dummy trim to work with an electric latch retraction or monitored device?
The device option is part of what you specify: None, EL for electric latch retraction, S for a signal switch that monitors the latch bolt, or HH for a hurricane device. All four options are offered in all three anodized finishes. EL is what you pick when the door has to be released from an access control system or unlocked on a schedule; S is what a security integrator uses to report door secure status back to a panel. Since the trim itself is a dummy pull, the electric option is doing the work of releasing the door, not the pull.
4) Does the Falcon 1490 concealed vertical rod device need to be less bottom rod, and what bottom latch do I get?
The device has to be less bottom rod (LBR). Standard bottom latch is RL, the rod bottom latch, except on the EL electric latch retraction version where a hex bottom latch is standard. A PL Pullman bottom latch is available as an option, and an ES electric strike top latch is optional as well. LBR matters on the job: there is no bottom rod or floor strike to foul on carpet, thresholds, or an uneven slab, which is why it is the usual call on storefront and high traffic openings.
5) My doors are hollow metal, not aluminum storefront. Is Falcon 1490 narrow stile trim still the right call?
No. The 1490 Series trim is built for narrow stile construction, which is the aluminum storefront profile, not a hollow metal or wood door. For hollow metal openings look at the Adams Rite 8500 Series or the fire rated Adams Rite 3600 and 3900 Series, all wide stile concealed vertical rod devices for hollow metal. The Corbin Russwin ED5800 is a Grade 1 wide stile device for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the DORMA 9100 covers wide stile at 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch thickness. For wood doors, the BEST Precision 2701 Series is a wide stile reversible concealed vertical rod device.
6) What is the difference between the Falcon 1491DT dummy trim and a Von Duprin 3347A concealed vertical rod device?
They are different pieces of the opening. The Falcon 1491DT is pull trim with a Dummy lock function - it mounts on the exterior face of a 1-3/4 inch narrow stile aluminum door and gives a pull, with no latching action of its own. The Von Duprin 3347A-3ft is the exit device itself: a 36 inch narrow stile concealed vertical rod device, Grade 1, for 1-3/4 inch doors. If the door needs the panic hardware, the 3347A-3ft is the part; the 1491DT is what goes on the outside of a door whose device is already there.
7) The opening needs a fire label - can I use the Falcon 1490 Series concealed vertical rod hardware?
The Falcon 1490 Series latching arrangement is built around a rod bottom latch as standard with a Pullman bottom latch optional, and the device runs less bottom rod. Where a fire rating has to be carried, the Adams Rite 3900 Series is a fire rated concealed vertical rod exit device with a 1-1/2 hour rating, the Adams Rite 3600 Series is fire rated for hollow metal doors, and the Sargent 12-MD8613 is a fire rated Grade 1 classroom function concealed vertical rod device. All three are wide stile.
8) The door is thicker than 1-3/4 inches - which concealed vertical rod devices cover that?
The Falcon 1490 Series arrangement the 1491DT trim serves is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors. The DORMA 9600BB narrow stile pushpad device and the DORMA 9100 wide stile pushpad device both cover a 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range, and both are Grade 1 heavy duty. The 9600BB is the narrow stile of the two.
9) I need keyed entry from the outside, not just a pull - what changes?
The Falcon 1491DT is non-keyed with a Dummy function, so it gives a grip on the outside and nothing more. For an opening that has to be operated or secured from outside, the device needs to accept operating trim: the Corbin Russwin ED4800 in narrow stile and the ED5800 in wide stile are Grade 1 devices that accept trim, the ED7800 narrow stile crossbar accepts operator trim, and the Sargent 12-MD8613 is a Grade 1 classroom function device.
10) My storefront doors are taller than standard. Do I need anything extra with the Falcon 1491DT trim?
There is an extension rod option, yes or no, that you select at order time. Take the yes option when the opening runs taller than a standard 7 foot door so the concealed vertical rod still reaches the top strike. On a standard height opening, order it as no.
11) What top strike does the Falcon 1490 Series use?
PB48 at the head. That is the top strike the concealed vertical rod latches into, and it needs to be prepped into the header of the frame. If you are replacing an existing device and reusing the frame, confirm the head prep matches the PB48 before you commit, because a mismatched top strike means header work, not just hardware swapping.
12) Is the Falcon 1490 Series dummy trim Grade 1?
Grade 1 under ANSI A156.3-2001, and rated commercial rather than residential. For a spec writer or a facilities buyer standardizing across a portfolio, that is the heavy duty tier and the grade usually called for on drawings for institutional and high traffic openings.
13) What else could I use instead of the Falcon 1490 Series for a narrow stile aluminum door with concealed vertical rods?
Several narrow stile concealed vertical rod devices cover the same kind of aluminum storefront opening. The Von Duprin 3347A in the 33/35 Series is a 36 inch Grade 1 narrow stile device for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Von Duprin 5547 and 7547 are the crossbar and 75 Series narrow stile equivalents at the same 36 inch size and thickness. The Corbin Russwin ED4800 is a Grade 1 narrow stile touchbar device for 1-3/4 inch doors that accepts trim, and the ED7800 is the crossbar version. Adams Rite 8600 Series is a narrow stile concealed vertical rod device built for aluminum doors, and the DORMA 9600BB is a 36 inch narrow stile pushpad device. Note the 9600BB and 3347A, 5547 and 7547 are all non fire rated.
14) I need a fire rated concealed vertical rod exit device. Does the Falcon 1490 Series cover that?
For a fire rated opening, the devices we carry with a stated fire rating are the Adams Rite 3600 Series and the Adams Rite 3900 Series, which carries a 1-1/2 hour rating, both Grade 1 wide stile devices for hollow metal doors, and the Sargent 12-MD8613 in the 8600 Series, a Grade 1 wide stile classroom function device with a fire rating. All of those are wide stile, so a fire rated pair generally means a hollow metal or wood opening rather than an aluminum storefront one.
15) Can I use a concealed vertical rod device on a pair of doors with no center mullion?
That is exactly what a concealed vertical rod device is for. The rods latch at the head, so a pair of doors secures against the frame header rather than against a center post, and you get the full clear opening width when both leaves are open. The alternative is a rim device, which latches to a strike on a removable mullion between the leaves; that is simpler and cheaper to install but leaves a post standing in the opening. With the 1490 Series the rods run inside the door, so nothing is exposed on the door face, and the device runs less bottom rod so there is no floor strike at the threshold.
16) Which concealed vertical rod devices are exit only, with no exterior trim at all?
An exit only device takes no outside operating trim, so no pull or lever is fitted on the exterior. The BEST Precision 2601 Series is exit only, narrow stile and non-handed. The Von Duprin 3347A-EO is exit only less bottom rod in narrow stile, Grade 1, for 1-3/4 inch doors. The CRL Jackson 1085 Series and the CRL Jackson 1285 push pad device are also exit only. On an opening where a pull is wanted on the outside face without any latch retraction from outside, that is where a dummy trim such as the Falcon 1491DT comes in instead.
17) Is a touchbar or a crossbar device the right match for narrow stile aluminum, and which peers are which?
The Falcon 1491DT trim is made for narrow stile concealed vertical rod touch bar exit devices. Among narrow stile Grade 1 concealed vertical rod peers for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Von Duprin 5547-3ft and the Corbin Russwin ED7800 are crossbar devices, while the DORMA 9600BB is a pushpad device. The actuator style changes the look of the push side and the trim that coordinates with it, so it is worth fixing before the trim is ordered.
18) Handing is a problem across a set of doors - which concealed vertical rod devices avoid it?
The Falcon 1491DT is ordered handed, RHR or LHR. Where a non-handed or reversible device simplifies a multi-door package, the BEST Precision 2601 Series is non-handed narrow stile, the BEST Precision 2701 Series is wide stile reversible for wood doors, and the CRL Jackson 1085 Series is a non-handed concealed vertical rod panic device.
19) One device has to cover narrow, medium and wide stile doors in the same building - is there a single model?
The Falcon 1491DT trim is specific to narrow stile construction. The CRL Jackson 1285 push pad concealed vertical rod panic exit is listed for narrow, medium or wide stile and is exit only, which is the closest thing to a single device across mixed stile widths. For narrow stile only, the Adams Rite 8600 Series covers aluminum doors and the DORMA 9600BB covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch thicknesses.
20) Is a Sargent 80 Series device an equivalent for a narrow stile aluminum storefront opening?
The Sargent MD8613F-LTRIM is an 80 Series Grade 1 heavy duty concealed vertical rod device for metal doors at 36 by 84 inches with hex dogging, supplied with lever trim. That is a metal door package with operating trim, which is a different opening from the 1-3/4 inch narrow stile aluminum door the Falcon 1491DT dummy pull trim serves. For narrow stile aluminum, the Adams Rite 8600 Series or the Corbin Russwin ED4800 are the closer matches.
21) What finishes does the Falcon 1490 Series 9970 pull trim come in?
Three anodized aluminum finishes: US28 clear aluminum anodized, DC13 dark bronze anodized, and DC35 black anodized. All three are anodized aluminum rather than plated, so they are matched to storefront framing rather than to lever hardware on interior doors. If you are standardizing a building, US28 is the one that matches typical clear anodized storefront, DC13 the dark bronze framing.
22) Can the 9970 pull trim be removed from the outside of the door?
All mounting screws on the trim are concealed, so there are no exposed fastener heads on the exterior face for someone to attack with a driver. On a storefront entrance that is the difference between trim that can be spun off the outside of the door and trim that cannot.
23) Does a 36 inch device from another brand pair with a different length trim?
The Falcon 1491DT is a 36 inch trim built to coordinate with 1490 Series concealed vertical rod devices, so the device length and the trim are matched within the series. Peers sold at the same 36 inch width include the Von Duprin 3347A-3ft, the Von Duprin 5547-3ft, the Von Duprin 7547-3ft and the DORMA 9600BB. Matching the width does not make trim from one line fit a device from another - trim follows the device manufacturer.
