Falcon 1590EO 42IN US28 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Falcon 1590EO fit a 1-3/4 inch aluminum storefront door?
That's exactly the opening the 1590EO is built for. It's a narrow stile rim device sized for 1-3/4 inch doors, and 1-3/4 inch only, not a range. The 42 inch device covers the door width it's cut for, and it projects 2-3/4 inches off the face of the door, which is the number to check against your closer arm, pull, or anything else living on the push side. Not for wood doors.
2) Do I have to specify handing when I order the Falcon 1590EO?
The device itself is non-handed, so one part number covers both swings. You still pick a hand at order time, RHR (right hand reverse) or LHR (left hand reverse), so the device ships set up for your opening. If you're standing outside the door and it swings away from you with the hinges on your right, that's RHR.
3) Will the Falcon 1590EO latch into the strike that's already on my frame?
Plan on using the strike that comes with it. The 1590EO throws a 3/4 inch latch and ships with the TD35 strike; STK45 is the optional alternate. Rim device latches engage a surface strike mounted on the frame stop, so an old strike from a different manufacturer's device is unlikely to line up with the latch centerline or give you the right keeper depth. Mount the supplied TD35 and you know the geometry is right.
4) Can I put an exterior lever or pull on a Falcon 1590EO, or is it push-to-exit only?
Exit only. The 1590EO is a device-only, less trim configuration, so there is no outside operation at all: push the touch bar to get out, and from the outside the door stays secure with nothing to grab. If you need people coming in through that leaf with a key or a lever, you need a rim device in a trim-accepting function instead. The Corbin Russwin ED4200, also a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors, is listed as exit only plus accepts trim.
5) Is the Falcon 1590EO fire rated? I need panic hardware for a rated opening.
The 1590EO is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3-2001 Grade 1, the panic hardware standard, and it's built for commercial use. If your opening is a rated door assembly, order a device the record actually shows as fire rated. Options we carry of that kind include the Adams Rite 3700 Series narrow stile rim device (fire rated, Grade 1, and it works on wood doors too), the Arrow FS1250 fire rated rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Dexter ED1000 Series fire rated Grade 1 rim device.
6) What's the difference between the EL and S options on the Falcon 1590EO 1590 device?
Two different jobs. EL is electric latch retraction: the access control system pulls the latch back so the door can be opened from outside on a card read or a remote release, without anyone touching the bar. S is a signal switch that monitors latch bolt position and reports door status back to your panel; it doesn't unlock anything. If you want card access through the leaf, that's EL. If you just want to know whether the door is secure, that's S. Order either one, or plain mechanical with neither, in any of the three finishes.
7) My storefront doors have narrow aluminum stiles. Will a standard wide stile panic bar work, or do I need a narrow stile device?
Wide stile devices need a lot more face material than a glass front aluminum door gives you; on a narrow stile leaf the chassis and end cap run into the glass. The Falcon 1590EO is a narrow stile rim device made for that opening, and it mounts to 1-3/4 inch aluminum doors with all the mounting screws concealed, so nothing shows on the finished face. Other narrow stile rim devices worth looking at are the TownSteel ED3700 and ED8900 (both Grade 1 heavy duty), the Detex 40 Advantex (extra heavy duty, Grade 1), and the BEST 2401, which like this one is exit only and non-handed. Wide stile devices such as the Von Duprin 22 or Corbin Russwin ED5200 belong on hollow metal openings, not on storefront.
8) I have a pair of storefront doors with no center mullion. Will the Falcon 1590EO work?
Not on its own for a mullion-less pair. A rim device latches into a strike on the frame or on a mullion, so with two active leaves and nothing in the middle there's nothing for the 3/4 inch latch to catch. Either add a mullion and run a 1590EO on the active leaf, or go to a vertical rod device that latches at the head and threshold instead. Concealed vertical rod options we carry include the Hager 4601 Series narrow stile CVR (Grade 1) and the Hager 4501 Series wide stile CVR.
9) Can I put a Falcon 1590EO on a wood door, and what should I use if the door is wood?
The Falcon 1590EO is not wood door compatible; it is specified for 1-3/4 inch aluminum doors. For a wood opening in the same narrow stile family, the Adams Rite 8700 Series is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device listed as wood door compatible, and the Adams Rite 3700 Series is the fire rated Grade 1 narrow stile equivalent, also wood door compatible.
10) What is the closest narrow stile Grade 1 rim exit device to the Falcon 1590EO if I need a different brand on the same aluminum door?
The Falcon 1590EO is a narrow stile rim exit device, Grade 1 under ANSI A156.3-2001, non-handed, for 1-3/4 inch doors. The closest peers by construction are the Corbin Russwin ED4200, a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the TownSteel ED3700, a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim device. Detex also builds the 40 Advantex, a Grade 1 extra heavy duty narrow stile rim device. All four keep the narrow stile footprint that an aluminum storefront stile requires.
11) What is the difference between the Falcon 1590EO and a wide stile rim device like the Von Duprin 22?
The Von Duprin 22-3FT is a wide stile pushpad rim exit device, 36 inch, non-handed, Grade 1, for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Falcon 1590EO is a narrow stile rim device, 42 inch, non-handed, Grade 1, also for 1-3/4 inch doors. Both are rim devices at the same grade and door thickness; the split is stile width, so the Von Duprin 22 body needs the wider rail of a hollow metal or wide stile door, while the 1590EO fits the narrow stile of an aluminum storefront. Corbin Russwin ED5200 and TownSteel ED9700 are other Grade 1 wide stile rim options.
12) Is a Cal-Royal A9800 a substitute for the Falcon 1590EO on a Grade 1 spec?
The Falcon 1590EO carries a Grade 1 rating under ANSI A156.3-2001. The Cal-Royal A9800 and A9820 are heavy duty rim exit devices in exit only function, and both are listed at Grade 2, as are the Cal-Royal 5000 and 5500 touch bar and push bar rim devices. If a drawing calls for Grade 1, the Grade 1 rim devices in the set include the Corbin Russwin ED4200 narrow stile, TownSteel ED8900 narrow stile, and Hager 4701 rim.
13) I'm standardizing exit hardware across a building with bronze and black storefront. Can I get the Falcon 1590 device to match?
Three anodized finishes cover most storefront work: DC13 dark bronze, DC35 black, and US28 aluminum. All three are available on the plain mechanical device, on EL, and on the signal switch version, so you can mix functions across the building and keep the appearance identical. All mounting screws are concealed, which keeps the look consistent door to door.
14) Is the Falcon 1590EO a direct swap for the narrow stile panic bar already on my aluminum door?
Treat it as a new install, not a drop-in. Falcon's 1590EO is a 42 inch narrow stile rim device on a 1-3/4 inch door with concealed fasteners and its own TD35 strike; nothing in its specs says it picks up an existing device's prep, and rim device mounting patterns and latch centerlines differ between makers. Measure your door width against the 42 inch device length, confirm 1-3/4 inch thickness, and plan on setting the supplied strike. If you're replacing another Falcon 1590, you're on the same series and the swap is straightforward.
15) Does the Falcon 1590EO stay locked or unlock when the power fails?
The mechanical device has no power in it at all, so it always allows free exit and stays secure from outside. Order the EL option and latch retraction is powered: the access control system retracts the latch to let people in, and when power drops the latch returns to its normal latched state, so the outside stays secure and the touch bar still gets people out. Egress through the bar is never dependent on power on any version.
16) What do I need to order alongside the Falcon 1590EO to finish the job?
Short list. The device comes with the TD35 strike, so the strike is covered unless you specifically want the STK45. Pick a hand (RHR or LHR), a finish (DC13, DC35 or US28), and a device option (mechanical, EL, or S). No exterior trim is included and none is used, since this is an exit only build. If you spec EL or S, you're adding wiring: power and a door loop or transfer hinge to get conductors from frame to leaf, plus the access control or monitoring input at the panel end.
17) Is the Falcon 1590EO heavy enough for a high traffic entrance?
It's certified Grade 1 to ANSI/BHMA A156.3-2001 and specified for commercial use. Grade 1 is the top tier in that standard, the one written for high cycle commercial openings, so it suits a main entrance rather than a back of house door. Other Grade 1 narrow stile choices in the same class include the Detex 40 Advantex, rated extra heavy duty, and the Stanley Security QED200 Series narrow stile device with hex key dogging.
18) How does the Falcon 1590EO EL compare to other electrified exit bars for access control?
The 1590EO offers electric latch retraction (EL) for access control integration and a signal switch (S) that monitors latch bolt position, both on the same Grade 1 narrow stile chassis. Different approaches in the same duty: the SDC S6136 is an electrified architectural rim exit device on a 4 inch wide stile for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors; the SDC MSB550 is a mechanical switch bar with electromagnetic lock release that suits narrow or wide stile; and the SDC PSB560 SureExit is a pressure sense bar with tri-failsafe technology, also narrow or wide stile. The Falcon retracts its own latch, while the SDC switch and sense bars signal a separate locking device.
19) The Falcon 1590EO is a rim device - what do I use if the opening calls for concealed vertical rod instead?
The 1590EO latches to a strike on the frame, using the TD35 strike supplied standard with STK45 optional, and projects 2-3/4 inch from the door face. If the drawing calls for a concealed vertical rod device instead, the Hager 4601 is a Grade 1 concealed vertical rod narrow stile exit device, and the Hager 4501 is the Grade 1 concealed vertical rod version with a wide stile pushpad. Those latch top and bottom rather than into a rim strike.
20) Is the Securitron EMB electromechanical exit bar a drop-in for the Falcon 1590EO?
No. The Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar specified for 2-1/4 inch door thickness, while the Falcon 1590EO is a mechanical rim exit device with a 3/4 inch latch throw into a rim strike on 1-3/4 inch doors. The 1590EO EL adds electric latch retraction to that same latching chassis; the EMB is a different device type and a different door thickness, so it is not a like-for-like swap.
21) Which exit devices come in a 48 inch size if the Falcon 1590EO 42 inch is too short for the door?
The Falcon 1590EO covered here is 42 inch. If the leaf needs a longer bar, the Marks USA M9900F is a 48 inch fire rated rim panic device in exit only, the Cal-Royal 5500 is a 48 inch push bar rim device, the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a 48 inch crossbar rim device, and the Dexter ED1000-R-EO is offered in a 4FT Grade 1 rim version. Sargent 2828 and 3828 are Grade 1 reversible rim devices for 48 inch minimum door width.
