Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P 36IN US26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P fit a narrow stile aluminum storefront door?
That is exactly the opening it is built for. The 1790 Series 1794NL-P/HB-P is a narrow stile rim device sized for a 36 inch door at 1-3/4 inch thickness. It is not for wood doors. If your leaf is a wood or hollow metal door with a wide stile, look at a wide stile rim device instead, such as the Corbin Russwin ED5200 or the Von Duprin 22-3FT.
2) What do night latch and hold back actually do on the Falcon 1794 exit device?
Two different outside behaviors from the cylinder. Night latch retracts the latch momentarily so someone with a key can pull the door open, but the device stays locked once it closes. Hold back retracts the latch and keeps it held back, so the door stays free for pull-open traffic until you key it back. That is the daytime/afterhours pair a property manager wants on a lobby or tenant entry, and the pull is included with the NL-P/HB-P.
3) Does the Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P come with a strike, or do I order one separately?
A TD35 strike ships standard with the device, so the frame side is covered in the box. The latch throws 3/4 inch and the device projects 3-3/8 inch off the door face, so check that projection against any adjacent wall, return, or door swing before you set the location.
4) Can I get the Falcon 1794 with a request to exit switch or electric latch retraction?
All three electrical options are order choices on the 1794NL-P/HB-P. RX request to exit is a yes/no selection across every finish, and EL electric latch retraction and ED electric dogging are each specified yes or no when you order. Pick RX if the access control system needs to see the pushpad operated; pick EL if the door has to unlatch from a remote release or card reader.
5) My door is a wood door - will the Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P work?
No, the Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P is built for aluminum doors and is not rated for wood door use. Among narrow stile rim devices, the Adams Rite 8700 Series and the Adams Rite 3700 Series are both listed as wood door compatible, Grade 1, narrow stile. The 3700 is fire rated and the 8700 is not, so pick based on whether the opening carries a label.
6) What is the closest narrow stile rim exit device to the Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P if I cannot get Falcon?
The Corbin Russwin ED4200 is the nearest match: it is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device in a 36 inch size for 1-3/4 inch doors, the same door thickness the Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P is built for. The TownSteel ED3700 is a second option, a 36 inch heavy duty Grade 1 narrow stile rim device. Both mount on the door face like the Falcon rather than requiring vertical rods, so the aluminum door prep stays in the same family. Confirm the trim and cylinder arrangement separately, since the Falcon is supplied less trim with a night latch and hold back pull.
7) The opening needs a fire rated exit device - can I use the Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P?
No. The Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P is a panic device for non-fire-rated openings. For a labeled opening in a narrow stile, the Adams Rite 3700 Series is a fire rated Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device. Where the stile allows a wider device, the Arrow FS1250 is a fire rated 32 inch rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Marks USA M9900F is a fire rated 36 inch rim device in exit only function. Fire rated rim devices omit dogging, so any hold-open habit on the existing opening has to change.
8) I need a night latch function exit device on a narrow stile aluminum door - what else does that besides the Falcon 1790 Series?
The Sargent 8504 is a narrow stile rim exit device built specifically in the night latch function, Grade 1, so it covers the same key-retracts-the-latch behavior the Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P provides through its night latch and hold back cylinder. The Detex V4003A/03AN also carries night latch trim in a Grade 1 rim device, but it is a wide stile design and will not fit the narrow aluminum stile the Falcon is engineered for. If the door is aluminum with a narrow stile, the Sargent 8504 is the substitution that keeps both the function and the stile.
9) What narrow stile rim device should I use if the door is thicker than 1-3/4 inch?
The Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors only. The Adams Rite 8800 Series is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device rated for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, which covers thicker aluminum and storefront leaves. Measure the leaf at the lock stile before ordering, since a device sized to 1-3/4 inch will not pick up the through-bolt length on a thicker door.
10) Is a wide stile device like the Von Duprin 22 a substitute for the Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P?
It is not a drop-in. The Von Duprin 22-3FT is a 36 inch Grade 1 non-handed rim exit device for 1-3/4 inch doors, matching the Falcon on width, grade, and door thickness, but it is a wide stile pushpad device. The Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P is a narrow stile device sized for the slim lock stile of an aluminum storefront door, and a wide stile chassis will overhang that stile. Von Duprin 22 is the right call on a hollow metal door with a full width stile; on a glass front aluminum door, stay with a narrow stile device.
11) Do I need to order a handed version of the Falcon 1790 Series rim device?
No handing to specify. The 1794NL-P/HB-P is non-handed, so one part covers left and right hand openings. That is useful if you are stocking spares across a building rather than one door at a time.
12) Should I use a rim exit device or a vertical rod device on my aluminum door?
A rim device like the 1794NL-P/HB-P latches into a strike on the frame at the lock stile, so it needs a stop or frame to catch. It has fewer parts than a vertical rod device and less to fall out of adjustment over time. Vertical rod devices latch top and bottom, which is what you need on a pair of doors with no center mullion. If that is your opening, look at a concealed vertical rod device such as the Hager 4601 Series 36 inch narrow stile CVR.
13) What other narrow stile Grade 1 rim exit devices could I use instead of the Falcon 1794?
Several narrow stile Grade 1 rim devices sit in the same slot. The TownSteel ED3700 and ED8900 are both 36 inch heavy duty narrow stile rim devices. The Detex 40 Advantex is extra heavy duty narrow stile. The Corbin Russwin ED4200 is 36 inch narrow stile at 1-3/4 inch thickness and accepts trim, and the Arrow 4800 Series 36 inch narrow stile is exit only at 1-3/4 inch. Where the Falcon differs is the specific NL/HB pull with rim cylinder built into the order.
14) Can the Falcon 1794 be tampered with through the gap between a pair of glass doors?
There are no openings in the pushpad for a chain, which is the usual way a bar gets defeated with a coat hanger or wire through the door gap. All mounting screws are concealed as well, so the device cannot be unfastened from the egress side. That combination is why it shows up on schools, healthcare, and municipal buildings where the glass front is the exposed face.
15) Can I add an RX switch to a Falcon 1790 device already installed on the door?
Yes, there is a retrofit path. Falcon publishes an RX switch retrofit kit installation instruction covering the 1690, 1790, and 2390 devices, so a 1790 already hanging can be brought onto an access control system without swapping the whole device. If you are ordering new, it is simpler to select the RX option up front.
16) I want to add lever or pull trim later - is the Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P the right device, or should I pick something else?
The Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P ships less trim and comes with a night latch and hold back pull with a rim cylinder, so the exterior side is a pull, not a lever. If the opening needs a lever or a device explicitly built to accept a range of trim, the Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device listed as exit only and accepts trim, and the ED5200 does the same on a wide stile for 1-3/4 inch doors. Deciding trim up front matters because the outside prep differs between a pull and a lever escutcheon.
17) What narrow stile rim exit device holds up best on a high traffic entrance?
For the heaviest traffic in a narrow stile, the Detex 40 Advantex is rated extra heavy duty and Grade 1 in a narrow stile rim configuration, a step above the standard Grade 1 duty class. The TownSteel ED8900 and ED3700 are both 36 inch heavy duty Grade 1 narrow stile rim devices. The Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3-2001 Grade 1 with cast metal cover plates and end caps and concealed mounting screws, which is what resists tampering in an unattended entrance.
18) I need an exit device that ties into the access control system - what are the options next to the Falcon 1790 Series?
The Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P can be ordered with a request to exit switch and with electric latch retraction or electric dogging, so the device itself reports egress and can be released electrically. For a different approach, the Dormakaba E2103 is an electrified 36 inch rim exit device supplied with 4908A trim in classroom function, and the SDC S6136 Spectra is an electrified architectural rim device for 36 inch openings on 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, though it is built on a 4 inch wide stile. The SDC PSB560 pressure sense bar and MSB550 switch bar are 36 inch bars that fit narrow or wide stile and signal an electromagnetic lock rather than latching mechanically, which is a different locking scheme entirely.
19) Is the Adams Rite EX88 the same kind of device as the Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P?
Both are Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit devices, so they suit the same aluminum door stile. The Adams Rite EX88 uses an interlocking rim design, while the Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P is a pushpad device with a 3/4 inch latch throw, a 3-3/8 inch projection, and a TD35 strike supplied standard. The strike is the point to check: an interlocking device pairs with its own strike arrangement, so swapping one for the other on an existing frame means reworking the frame prep, not just the door.
20) Can I standardize a building on one exit device if some doors need 48 inch bars?
The Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P covers 36 inch openings. For wider leaves, the Cal-Royal A9820 is a 48 inch exit only rim device, the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 48 inch crossbar rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Marks USA M9900F is offered as a fire rated 48 inch rim device in exit only function. If the wide leaves are narrow stile aluminum like the 36 inch openings, keep the stile type consistent across the standard so the door prep and the spare parts stay common.
21) Would a concealed vertical rod device work in place of the Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P?
It changes the opening. The Hager 4601 is a 36 inch Grade 1 concealed vertical rod narrow stile exit device, and the 4501 is the wide stile version. A concealed vertical rod device latches at the head and sill inside the door and requires a door prepared for the rods, while the Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P is a rim device that latches into a TD35 strike on the frame and mounts entirely on the door face. Rod devices carry more parts to adjust; the rim device is the simpler retrofit on an existing storefront frame.
22) Is the BEST 2401 a narrow stile alternative to the Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P?
Yes, in configuration. The BEST 2401 is a narrow stile rim exit device in exit only, non-handed form, which matches the Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P on stile type, exit only function, and non-handed installation. The Marks USA M8800 is another narrow stile rim device at 36 inch in exit only. The difference to settle is the outside side: the Falcon is supplied with a night latch and hold back pull and rim cylinder, so if key access from the outside is part of the job, confirm the cylinder arrangement on whichever device you choose.
23) What is the difference between the Stanley QED211 and the Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P for a narrow stile opening?
The Stanley QED211 is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim exit device with hex key dogging, and the Dormakaba QED200 is the same series in a 36 inch device with a 7 foot rod. Hex key dogging holds the pushpad down mechanically to keep the door in a push-pull state during business hours. The Falcon 1794NL-P/HB-P handles that through its hold back cylinder function, which retracts and holds the latch back by key, and it is offered with electric dogging as an option. Which one suits depends on whether the staff should hold the door open with a key at the cylinder or with a hex wrench at the bar.
