Falcon 1593HB-OP 36IN US28 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the HB hold back function on the Falcon 1590 Series actually do?
The hold back cylinder lets a key retract the latch bolt and hold it retracted, so the door stays in a push/pull condition until you key it back. That is how you open a storefront up for business hours without adding dogging or outside pull hardware. The device itself is exit only, so with the latch projected there is no key or lever entry from outside unless you add trim or a rim cylinder.
2) Does the Falcon 1593HB-OP come with a strike, or do I order one separately?
A TD35 strike ships with the device as standard. If your frame condition calls for something different, the STK45 is the optional alternate. The latch bolt throws 3/4 inch with a 2-3/4 inch projection off the door face, so confirm your frame stop gives that clearance before you set the strike.
3) Do I have to specify handing when ordering the Falcon 1593HB-OP?
The device chassis itself is non-handed, but handing is a required selection on the order because of the cylinder and hold back arrangement. You pick either RHR (right hand reverse) or LHR (left hand reverse). Stand outside the door: if it swings toward you and the hinges are on your right, it is RHR.
4) My opening is a fire rated door. Can I use the Falcon 1593HB-OP?
No. The 1593HB-OP hold back function retracts and holds the latch back, which is the opposite of what a fire door requires, and it is not a fire rated device. For a fire rated rim exit device, look at the Adams Rite 3700 Series narrow stile device, or the Marks USA M9900F and Orca OED85 in 36 inch, both listed fire rated.
5) What is the closest narrow stile rim exit device to the Falcon 1593HB-OP for a 36 inch aluminum door?
The Corbin Russwin ED4200 is the nearest match: a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device sized 36 inches for a 1-3/4 inch door, not wood door compatible, same as the Falcon 1593HB-OP's 36 inch narrow stile build for 1-3/4 inch doors. The TownSteel ED3700 in 36 inch is also a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device. The functional difference is the Falcon's hold back cylinder, which lets a key retract and hold the latch back; the ED4200 is listed as exit only and accepts trim.
6) I need a narrow stile device with night latch trim rather than hold back. What is the alternative?
The Sargent 8504 is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device in night latch function, where a key retracts the latch for entry. The Falcon 1593HB-OP instead uses a hold back cylinder, which retracts the latch and holds it back until the key releases it, so pick the 8504 if you want the latch to re-secure on every entry.
7) For an access control opening, how does the Falcon 1593HB-OP EL option compare with the electrified rim devices available?
The Falcon 1593HB-OP can be ordered with EL electric latch retraction or with an S signal switch that monitors the latch bolt, on a narrow stile 1-3/4 inch aluminum door. Among alternatives, the SDC S6136 Spectra is a 36 inch electrified architectural rim exit device but is a 4 inch wide stile unit for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Dormakaba E2103 is a 36 inch electrified rim device supplied with 4908A trim in classroom function. The Falcon is the narrow stile route.
8) Can I get the Falcon 1593HB-OP with electric latch retraction or latch monitoring?
Both are available as device options. EL gives you electric latch retraction, so an access control system or timer can pull the latch in and leave the door on free push/pull. The S option adds a signal switch that monitors the latch bolt, which is what you want feeding a door position or forced entry input on an alarm panel. Choose None if you only need the mechanical hold back cylinder.
9) Is the Falcon 1593HB-OP rated for high traffic commercial use?
It carries ANSI/BHMA A156.3 Grade 1, tested to ANSI A156.3-2001, which is the top durability tier for exit devices and the level typically specified for school, healthcare, and government entrances. Construction is steel operating mechanism with hardened steel latch bolts and aluminum push bars.
10) What are the closest alternatives to the Falcon 1593HB-OP narrow stile rim device?
Staying narrow stile and Grade 1 on a 36 inch aluminum door, the Corbin Russwin ED4200 is the direct equivalent and is listed to accept trim if you later want outside lever entry. TownSteel ED3700 and ED8900 are both 36 inch narrow stile Grade 1 heavy duty options. The Detex 40 Advantex is narrow stile Grade 1 rated extra heavy duty for abusive openings. If you specifically need night latch function rather than hold back, the Sargent 8504 is a narrow stile night latch device.
11) Will the Falcon 1593HB-OP work on a 2-inch or thicker door?
No. The 1590 Series device is built for 1-3/4 inch thickness only, which is the standard commercial door thickness. On thicker leaves, the Adams Rite 8800 Series narrow stile device covers 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inches, and the Dormakaba 9300 Series covers the same range in wide stile.
12) Does the Falcon 1593HB-OP include outside trim or a pull?
No trim is included. The device ships less trim and functions as exit only from inside. The OP designation refers to the optional pull arrangement, and the hold back cylinder is what gives you outside access by keying the latch back rather than through a lever. If you need permanent outside lever entry, a device listed as accepting trim, such as the Corbin Russwin ED4200, is the better route.
13) Is the Von Duprin 22-3FT a substitute for the Falcon 1593HB-OP?
Not on a narrow stile aluminum door. The Von Duprin 22-3FT is a 36 inch Grade 1 non-handed rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors, but it is a wide stile pushpad device, while the Falcon 1593HB-OP is built as a narrow stile device. Both are rim devices at the same length and door thickness, so the 22-3FT works where the stile is wide enough to take a wide stile pushpad chassis.
14) What other narrow stile Grade 1 rim devices should I look at alongside the Falcon 1593HB-OP?
The Detex 40 Advantex is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty narrow stile rim device, the TownSteel ED8900 in 36 inch is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim device, and the BEST Precision 2401 is a non-handed narrow stile rim device in exit only function. All are non wood door devices, as is the Falcon 1593HB-OP, which is Grade 1 in exit only function with a 3/4 inch latch throw.
15) If I need a simpler exit only 36 inch rim device without the cylinder function, what fits?
The Arrow 4800 Series in 36 inch is a narrow stile rim exit device in exit only configuration for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Arrow ED910 in 36 inch is a rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors as well. Both are non wood door devices. The Falcon 1593HB-OP is also exit only for 1-3/4 inch doors but adds the hold back cylinder for keyed latch retraction.
16) What looks like a rim exit device alternative but will not work as a mechanical latching exit on my aluminum door?
The SDC MSB550 mechanical switch bar and the SDC SureExit PSB560 pressure sense bar are 36 inch bars for narrow or wide stile doors, but they release an electromagnetic lock rather than throw a latch bolt, so the opening needs a maglock. The Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar listed for 2-1/4 inch doors. The Falcon 1593HB-OP is a mechanical rim latching device with a 3/4 inch hardened steel latch bolt throw and a TD35 strike supplied standard.
17) I need a 48 inch rim device to match the same opening family as the Falcon 1593HB-OP. What are my options?
The Falcon 1593HB-OP is a 36 inch device. For a wider door, the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 48 inch crossbar rim exit device for 1-3/4 inch doors in wide stile, the Dormakaba 9300 is a 48 inch Grade 1 wide stile rim device in exit only for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Marks USA M9900F-48 is a 48 inch fire rated rim device in exit only. All three are wide stile or non narrow stile, so confirm your stile width.
18) What finishes does the Falcon 1590 Series narrow stile device come in?
Three anodized aluminum finishes: 628 clear aluminum anodized, DC13 dark bronze, and DC35 black. Those are the three that match typical storefront framing, so on a run of entrances you can hold one finish across every opening. All three are offered with any of the device options.
19) Are the mounting screws on the Falcon 1590 exposed after install?
No, every mounting screw is concealed on the 1593HB-OP. That matters on a public entrance where exposed fasteners on the push side are an attack point and a maintenance call waiting to happen.
