Falcon 1491DT 48IN US28 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What exactly is the Falcon 1491DT, a full exit device or just the outside trim?
The 1491DT is dummy trim with the 9970 pull, not an exit device. It mounts on the outside face of a door that already has a Falcon 1490 Series narrow stile concealed vertical rod device on the push side. The function is dummy, so the pull does nothing mechanically, it just gives a pull handle and a finished exterior. Keyed function is non-keyed. If you need the device itself, order the 1490 Series exit device separately.
2) Will the Falcon 1491DT dummy trim fit a 1-3/4 inch aluminum storefront door?
Yes, 1-3/4 inches is the only thickness it is built for, and it is made for narrow stile aluminum doors. On thicker doors or wide stile hollow metal, it is the wrong trim. Projection off the door face is 2-3/4 inches, which is what you need to check against any adjacent frame, sidelite, or door in a pair before ordering.
3) Do I have to specify handing when ordering Falcon 1491DT dummy trim?
Yes, handing is a required selection: RHR (right hand reverse) or LHR (left hand reverse). Exit devices on out-swinging doors are always reverse bevel, so stand outside the door, and the side the hinges are on tells you the hand. Get it wrong and the pull will not line up with the device prep.
4) What other narrow stile concealed vertical rod exit devices could I use on an aluminum storefront door?
Several Grade 1 narrow stile options exist for 1-3/4 inch aluminum doors: the Von Duprin 3347A in touchbar form, the Von Duprin 5547 and 7547 crossbar devices, the Corbin Russwin ED4800 touchbar and ED7800 crossbar, the Adams Rite 8600 Series, and the DORMA 9600BB narrow stile pushpad. Crossbar versus touchbar is mostly appearance and how the rest of the building is outfitted. Note the Von Duprin 7547 is not wood door compatible.
5) Can I use the 1491DT dummy trim if I need the outside pull to actually retract the latch?
No. It is dummy trim, so the pull is fixed and does nothing to the latches, and it is non-keyed. If you need outside entry, you want a keyed or lever operating trim, or a device specified to accept operator trim, such as the Corbin Russwin ED7800 which accepts operator trim. Dummy trim suits openings that are exit only from the inside with free re-entry handled another way.
6) My door is a wide stile hollow metal or wood door, not narrow stile aluminum. What concealed vertical rod device fits instead?
The Falcon 1490 Series hardware the 1491DT trims is narrow stile only. For wide stile openings, the Adams Rite 8500 Series is a Grade 1 non fire rated concealed vertical rod device for hollow metal doors, the Corbin Russwin ED5800 is a Grade 1 wide stile concealed vertical rod device for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the DORMA 9100 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty wide stile pushpad device covering 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. For wood doors, the BEST Precision 2701 Series is a wide stile reversible concealed vertical rod device.
7) What is the closest narrow stile concealed vertical rod exit device to the Falcon 1490 Series for a 1-3/4 inch aluminum door?
The Falcon 1491DT dummy trim serves 1490 Series narrow stile concealed vertical rod devices on 1-3/4 inch doors. For the same opening profile, the Von Duprin 3347A-3ft is a Grade 1 narrow stile concealed vertical rod device listed for 1-3/4 inch doors in a 36 inch length, and the Corbin Russwin ED4800 is a Grade 1 narrow stile concealed vertical rod device for 1-3/4 inch doors that is exit only and accepts trim. Adams Rite 8600 Series is also a narrow stile concealed vertical rod device built for aluminum doors at Grade 1.
8) Is the Falcon 1491DT dummy trim fire rated, and what do I use on a fire rated opening?
The 1491DT is a dummy trim with no latching function, so fire rated egress hardware has to come from the device side of the opening. Fire rated concealed vertical rod devices in the same category include the Adams Rite 3600 Series and the Adams Rite 3900 Series, both Grade 1 and fire rated, with the 3900 carrying a 1-1/2 hour rating, and the Sargent 12-MD8613, a fire rated Grade 1 classroom function device. Note that all three are wide stile rather than narrow stile.
9) Is the Falcon 1491DT a substitute for a full exit device?
No. The 1491DT is dummy trim with a 9970 pull and a 2-3/4 inch projection, mounted with concealed screws on 1-3/4 inch aluminum doors; it is the exterior pull side of a 1490 Series concealed vertical rod opening and does not latch or provide egress on its own. A device such as the BEST Precision 2801 Series wide stile concealed vertical rod exit device or the Corbin Russwin ED5800 Grade 1 concealed vertical rod device is the latching hardware itself, not a pull.
10) Can I order Falcon 1491DT trim for a device with electric latch retraction or latch monitoring?
Yes. Device options include EL electric latch retraction, S signal switch for latch bolt monitoring, and HH hurricane device, plus a plain no-option version. Pick the option that matches the 1490 Series device already on the door so the prep and any wiring line up. Note that with EL, the hex bottom latch is the standard bottom latch.
11) Does the 1490 Series concealed vertical rod device need to be less bottom rod?
Yes. The device is specified less bottom rod (LBR). Bottom latch choices are the RL rod bottom latch as standard, hex bottom latch standard on EL versions, PL Pullman bottom latch as an option, and ES electric strike top latch as an option. Going LBR keeps the bottom of the opening clear, which matters on exterior storefront doors where a floor strike fills with grit.
12) Is the Falcon 1490 Series concealed vertical rod hardware Grade 1?
Grade 1 under ANSI A156.3-2001, the standard covering exit devices. That is the top commercial durability grade, which is what most institutional and government specs call for on high traffic openings.
13) What is the extension rod option on the Falcon 1491DT order form for?
Extension rod is a required yes/no choice and it covers taller than standard door leaves, where the concealed vertical rod has to reach further to the top strike. Measure the door height before ordering; standard rods cover typical door heights and anything taller needs the extension.
14) I need a 48 inch concealed vertical rod device to pair with the 48 inch 1491DT trim. What 48 inch options exist?
The 1491DT is supplied at a 48 inch size for 1490 Series devices. A directly comparable 48 inch device is the CRL Jackson 1085 Series, a 48 inch non-handed exit only concealed vertical rod panic device in a wide stile configuration. Several peer devices are catalogued at 36 inch instead, including the Von Duprin 3347A-3ft and 5547-3ft narrow stile Grade 1 devices and the DORMA 9600BB narrow stile pushpad device, so confirm door width before substituting.
15) The 1491DT requires handing. Are there non-handed concealed vertical rod alternatives?
The Falcon 1491DT is ordered RHR or LHR, so handing has to be confirmed before the order. If a non-handed device simplifies stocking, the BEST Precision 2601 Series is a narrow stile exit only concealed vertical rod device described as non-handed, and the CRL Jackson 1085 Series is a 48 inch non-handed exit only concealed vertical rod panic device. The BEST Precision 2701 Series is described as reversible for wide stile wood doors.
16) I need electric latch retraction on a concealed vertical rod opening. How does the Falcon option compare to other heavy duty devices?
The Falcon 1491DT trim is offered with an EL electric latch retraction device option, along with an S signal switch that monitors the latch bolt and an HH hurricane device option, in dark bronze, black and aluminum anodized finishes. Among comparable heavy duty Grade 1 concealed vertical rod devices, the DORMA 9600BB is a narrow stile pushpad device for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors and the Sargent MD8613F-LTRIM is a heavy duty Grade 1 device with hex dogging for 36 by 84 inch metal doors.
17) What finishes does the Falcon 1491DT 9970 pull trim come in?
Three anodized aluminum finishes: US28 clear aluminum anodized, DC13 dark bronze anodized, and DC35 black anodized. Those are the standard storefront finishes, so match whatever the existing door frames and pulls on the building already use.
18) Will exposed screws show on the outside of the door with this pull trim?
No. All mounting screws on the 1491DT are concealed, so the exterior face reads as a clean pull. It also removes the obvious attack point of exposed fasteners on the secure side.
