FALCON 1790/FALCON 1790 RIM EXIT DEVICE

OVERVIEW

The 1690/1790 Series narrow stile touch bar exit devices provide safe and reliable egress that is ideal for aluminum doors. Both series are certified ANSI/BHMA A156.3 Grade 1 products and boast a 10-year limited warranty.

The 1690 Series design is ideal for demanding, moderate-traffic applications. The vertical rods and latch mechanisms are concealed in the vertical door stile, ensuring ideal operation. Cast metal cover plates and end caps hold up to rigorous use. A quick, single-point dogging feature in the housing deactivates the device, permitting unrestricted traffic flow. The 1690 Series may also be used to retrofit a 1990 Series crossbar device.

The 1790 Series rim device is typically used in applications where maintenance is a concern, since the rim device has fewer parts and pieces than other exit devices. This results in less maintenance and adjustment. The streamlined design has no openings for chains, reducing code infringements risks and offers increased building security by eliminating tampering and forced entry via coat hangers and other tools. The 1790 Series may also be used to retrofit a 2090 Series crossbar device.

Falcon 1790EO 36IN US28 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What door widths work with the Falcon 1790EO narrow stile exit device?
This device is designed for narrow stile doors up to 3 feet wide. Verify your door width and stile dimensions before ordering. The narrow stile design accommodates doors with limited rail space.
2) How does the rim pushpad mounting work?
The rim design mounts to the interior door face without mortising. The pushpad activates the latch mechanism when pressed. This surface-mount style simplifies installation compared to mortise devices.
3) What does "exit only" operation mean?
Exit only means the device allows egress from inside but prevents entry from outside. There is no exterior trim or lever. This configuration is common for emergency exits and security applications.
4) Can this device be used on fire-rated doors?
Check the manufacturer's listing for fire rating compatibility. Many Falcon exit devices are available with fire ratings. Verify the specific model meets your fire door requirements and local codes.
5) What finish options are available for the 1790EO?
Standard finishes typically include aluminum, dark bronze, and other architectural finishes. Check product specifications for available options. Finish selection should match other door hardware for consistency.
6) Does this exit device meet ADA requirements?
Pushpad exit devices generally meet ADA compliance when properly installed. The push force should not exceed 15 pounds. Verify installation height and operating force meet local accessibility codes.
7) What door preparation is required for installation?
Follow the manufacturer's template for door and frame preparation. Rim devices require less door preparation than mortise types but still need precise measurements. Use proper drilling techniques for hardware mounting holes.
8) How do I adjust the latch for proper door alignment?
Most Falcon exit devices include adjustment mechanisms for latch alignment. Follow manufacturer instructions for proper strike adjustment. Test operation after installation to ensure smooth latching and release.
9) Can this device work with door closers?
Yes, exit devices typically work with door closers. Coordinate closer arm placement with the exit device rail. Some applications may require specific closer mounting configurations to avoid interference.
10) What replacement parts are commonly needed?
Common replacement parts include push pads, strikes, and internal mechanisms. Keep model numbers for ordering correct parts. Regular maintenance can extend component life and reduce replacement needs.
11) Are there compatible accessories for this model?
Falcon offers various accessories including different strike types, weather seals, and mounting hardware. Check with the manufacturer for model-specific compatible accessories and options.
12) How does this compare to other Falcon exit device models?
The 1790EO is specifically designed for narrow stile applications. Other Falcon models may offer different mounting styles, trim options, or door compatibility. Compare specifications to find the right device for your application.
