Falcon 19-R-L-D SP28 3 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Falcon 19-R rim exit device fit a narrow stile aluminum storefront door?
That's exactly what the 19-R is built for. It's a narrow stile rim device sized for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the 36 inch size suits a standard 3-0 leaf. It is not for wood doors, so on a wood or mineral-core opening you need a different device. On aluminum storefront it mounts to the stile face and latches into the frame, no vertical rods and no threshold work.
2) I'm replacing an old panic device on a 161 prep door. Will the Falcon 19-R cover the existing holes?
Yes. The 19-R covers a 161 cutout, which is the standard cylindrical lock prep, so it goes over that hole on a retrofit without patching the door. All the machine screw mounting is concealed, so the finished job doesn't show fasteners across the face of the stile. You will still need the frame prepped for the F570 strike if the old device used a different one.
3) Do I have to order the Falcon 19-R handed?
The device itself is non-handed, so one chassis works either direction. Handing is still selected on the order (RHR or LHR) because the lever trim and its prep are handed. If you are standardizing across a building, the non-handed device body means you stock fewer variations and only the trim hand changes door to door.
4) Will the Falcon 19-R latch into the strike that's already on my frame?
Only if that strike matches the F570. The 19-R throws a 3/4 inch latch and is designed to engage the F570 rim strike, so reusing another manufacturer's rim strike is a gamble on both throw depth and lip location. On a retrofit, plan to install the F570 with the device rather than trying to make the old strike work.
5) What do I need to specify when ordering the Falcon 19-R exit device?
Four things beyond finish. Dogging: hex dogging, cylinder dogging, or less dogging (fire rated openings take less dogging). Whether you want the AX accessible device option. Handing, RHR or LHR. And the trim: 912L lever trim for keyed entry from outside, 912L-NL night latch, 912L-DT dummy trim for pull-only, or 912L-BE blank escutcheon when the outside stays secure with no trim function. Lever style is Dane, Quantum, or Sutro. Fire rated construction is a yes/no choice at order time.
6) Can I get the Falcon 19-R for a fire rated door?
Yes, ordered as fire rated construction with the optional B label, which is the 1-1/2 hour rating. One thing to plan for: fire exit hardware cannot be dogged down, so on a fire rated opening order less dogging rather than hex or cylinder dogging. If the door is not a rated assembly, the non-fire version with hex dogging lets you hold the latch retracted during business hours.
7) My door is wide stile, not narrow. What should I order instead of the Falcon 19-R?
The 19-R won't suit you, it's a narrow stile device. On a wide stile aluminum or hollow metal door look at the Von Duprin 22-3FT, a 36 inch non-handed Grade 1 wide stile rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors, or the Corbin Russwin ED5200, a 36 inch Grade 1 wide stile rim device that accepts trim. The TownSteel ED9700 is another 36 inch Grade 1 wide stile rim option.
8) The door is a wide stile hollow metal door, not aluminum. What rim device should I use instead of the Falcon 19-R?
The Falcon 19-R is built for narrow stile doors, so a wide stile opening calls for a wide stile device. The Von Duprin 22-3FT is a 36 inch non-handed Grade 1 wide stile pushpad rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Corbin Russwin ED5200 is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device at 36 inches for 1-3/4 inch doors, with function listed as exit only, accepts trim. The TownSteel ED1100 is a 36 inch heavy duty Grade 1 wide stile rim device, and the Detex 10 Advantex is a 36 inch extra heavy duty Grade 1 wide stile device.
9) Will the Falcon 19-R fit a door thicker than 1-3/4 inches, or do I need a different device?
The Falcon 19-R is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors. If your door is thicker, the Adams Rite 8800 Series is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device covering 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inches, which keeps you in a narrow stile device. On a wide stile door, the Dormakaba 9300 Series covers 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inches and the SDC S6136 covers 1-3/4 to 2 inches. Measure the leaf before ordering, since a rim device sized to the wrong thickness will not mount correctly.
10) What is the closest narrow stile rim exit device to the Falcon 19-R if I need a Grade 1 device that takes lever trim on a 36 inch aluminum door?
The Corbin Russwin ED4200 is the nearest match. It is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device sized 36 inches, with a door thickness of 1-3/4 inches, and its function is listed as exit only, accepts trim, so lever trim can be added. The Falcon 19-R is also Grade 1 for 1-3/4 inch narrow stile doors and ships as a lever trim configuration with a 3/4 inch latch throw. Both are narrow stile devices, so both suit the same aluminum storefront opening. The TownSteel ED3700 and ED8900 are also Grade 1 narrow stile rim devices at 36 inches if you want additional narrow stile options.
11) I only need push to exit with no outside trim. Is there a simpler option than the Falcon 19-R lever trim device?
Yes. The Falcon 19-R is a lever trim configuration, so if nobody needs to enter from outside, an exit only device is the simpler build. The Arrow 4800 Series is a 36 inch narrow stile rim device in exit only for 1-3/4 inch doors. The BEST 2401 Series is a narrow stile rim exit device, exit only and non-handed. The Marks USA M8800 is a 36 inch narrow stile rim device, exit only. All three drop the outside trim and the cylinder that goes with it.
12) Can I put a Cal-Royal 5000 or A9800 on the same opening as a Falcon 19-R if the spec calls for Grade 1?
Check the grade before you commit. The Falcon 19-R carries a Grade 1 rating to ANSI A156.3-2001. The Cal-Royal 5000 is a 36 inch rim exit device with a touch bar listed at Grade 2, and the Cal-Royal A9800 Series 36 inch rim device is also listed at Grade 2, both heavy duty. They are rim devices on the same style of opening, but if the drawing calls for Grade 1 they will not satisfy it. A Grade 1 substitute in the same 36 inch rim format is the TownSteel ED8900 narrow stile device.
13) Should I use a rim exit device or a vertical rod device on my aluminum doors?
A rim device like the Falcon 19-R latches into a strike on the frame or on a mullion, so it works on a single door or on a pair with a center mullion. It's the simpler install and there's nothing at the floor to collect dirt or go out of adjustment. If you have a pair of doors with no mullion and need a clear opening, a rim device won't work by itself, and a vertical rod device is the answer there, such as the Hager 4601 Series concealed vertical rod narrow stile device.
14) What is the AX option on the Falcon 19-R and do I need it?
AX is the accessible device option, chosen yes or no at order time. It's the version to pick where the opening has to meet accessibility requirements for the force and reach needed to operate the touchbar. On a general commercial door with no accessibility scope, the standard device is fine. On a school, healthcare, or public building entrance being brought up to code, specify AX.
15) What lever trim function do I need if I want the door locked outside but free exit?
Order the 912L lever trim with a cylinder if you want keyed entry from outside and free egress at all times, or 912L-NL night latch if outside access is by key only with the lever omitted. For a pull-only outside with no latch retraction, 912L-DT dummy trim. If the outside should have no operable trim at all but you still want a finished look, 912L-BE blank escutcheon. Levers come in Dane, Quantum, and Sutro styles.
16) Is the Falcon 19-R Grade 1 and what standard is it tested to?
Grade 1 under ANSI/BHMA A156.3-2001, the exit device standard. That's the top tier for panic hardware and the level typically written into commercial and institutional specs. If a drawing calls for Grade 1 exit hardware on a narrow stile aluminum door, the 19-R meets it.
17) Can I hold the Falcon 19-R unlocked during business hours?
Yes, if you order it with dogging. Hex dogging holds the touchbar depressed and the latch retracted using an allen key, so the door pushes free both ways during the day. Cylinder dogging does the same with a key instead, which is the choice when you don't want maintenance staff carrying a hex wrench. Order less dogging if the door is a fire rated opening, since fire exit hardware cannot be dogged.
18) Does the Falcon 19-R come with everything needed to mount it?
Mounting is all concealed machine screw, supplied with the device, so the finished face shows no exposed fasteners. What you specify separately is the trim (912L lever, night latch, dummy, or blank escutcheon) and, on a cylinder-dogged or keyed-trim device, the cylinder. The F570 strike is what the latch is designed to engage, so make sure the frame is prepped for it.
19) We want access control on the exit door. Is an electrified bar an alternative to the Falcon 19-R with lever trim?
They solve different problems. The Falcon 19-R is a mechanical rim device with lever trim, available with night latch trim, blank escutcheon, or dummy trim, and with hex, cylinder, or less dogging. For electrified control, the SDC S6136 Spectra is a 36 inch electrified architectural rim exit device with a 4 inch wide stile for doors 1-3/4 to 2 inches, and the Dormakaba E2103 is a 36 inch electrified rim device with 4908A trim in a classroom function. The SDC PSB560 SureExit is a 36 inch pressure sense bar for narrow or wide stile doors, and the SDC MSB550 is a 36 inch mechanical switch bar with electromagnetic lock release. Note the SDC S6136 is a wide stile device, so it is not a drop in for a narrow stile aluminum door.
20) Is a concealed vertical rod device like the Hager 4601 a substitute for the Falcon 19-R?
No, they latch differently. The Falcon 19-R is a rim device that latches into an F570 strike on the frame at the pushbar height. The Hager 4601 Series is a Grade 1 concealed vertical rod narrow stile exit device at 36 inches, and the Hager 4501 Series is a Grade 1 concealed vertical rod device with a wide stile pushpad. Vertical rod devices latch top and bottom through rods inside the door, which requires a door prepped for that hardware. If the door is already prepped for a rim strike, stay with a rim device.
21) Which narrow stile rim device should I standardize on across a facility if I want an extra heavy duty option instead of the Falcon 19-R?
The Detex 40 Advantex Series is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device rated extra heavy duty. The Stanley Security QED200 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim device with hex key dogging, and the Dormakaba QED200 is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow exit device at 36 inches. The Falcon 19-R is Grade 1 to ANSI A156.3-2001 and is non-handed, which is what keeps a standardized stock list short since one device covers both hands. The TownSteel ED3700 and ED8900 are heavy duty Grade 1 narrow stile devices at 36 inches for the same door type.
22) I need night latch function on a narrow stile door. Should I use the Falcon 19-R or the Sargent 8504?
Both reach night latch. The Falcon 19-R is available with 912L-NL night latch lever trim on its Grade 1 narrow stile 1-3/4 inch platform, so you get night latch with a lever pull outside. The Sargent 8504 is a Grade 1 narrow design rim exit device built specifically in night latch function. The Detex V4003A/03AN is a Grade 1 rim device with night latch trim, but it is a wide stile device, so it does not fit a narrow stile aluminum door.
23) The door pair is wider than 36 inches. What rim exit device covers a 48 inch leaf when the Falcon 19-R is a 36 inch device?
The Falcon 19-R is a 36 inch device. For a wider leaf, the Dexter ED1000 Series is offered in a 4FT Grade 1 rim exit device. The Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 48 inch crossbar rim device for 1-3/4 inch wide stile doors, the Dormakaba 9300 Series is a 48 inch Grade 1 heavy duty wide stile rim device for 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Marks USA M9900F is available as a 48 inch fire rated rim panic device in exit only. Confirm stile type: the 48 inch options listed are wide stile or crossbar, not narrow stile.
24) Is a crossbar panic device interchangeable with the Falcon 19-R touchbar?
They mount and operate differently even though both are rim devices. The Falcon 19-R uses a narrow stile pushpad touchbar on a 1-3/4 inch aluminum door with an F570 strike. The CRL Jackson 1095 Series is a 48 inch crossbar rim panic exit device in wide stile, exit only, and the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 48 inch crossbar rim device in wide stile. A crossbar projects further off the door face and is a wide stile build, so swapping one for a narrow stile touchbar changes both the door prep and the clearance at the opening.
25) I need a dummy exit device to match a Falcon 19-R on the inactive leaf. What are my options?
The Falcon 19-R is offered with 912L-DT dummy trim, which keeps the lever and finish matching the active leaf. If the inactive leaf needs a dummy device rather than dummy trim, the Detex Advantex 00 Series is a Grade 1 super heavy duty dummy exit device in a wide stile design. Since it is wide stile, it will not match the appearance of a narrow stile touchbar on the adjacent leaf.
26) Which non-handed rim exit devices can I stock instead of ordering the Falcon 19-R in RHR and LHR?
The Falcon 19-R is non-handed, so one device covers both hands even though handing is selected at order. If you are comparing other non-handed rim devices, the Von Duprin 22-3FT is a 36 inch non-handed Grade 1 wide stile pushpad rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors, the BEST Precision 5101 Series is a non-handed universal design rim exit device, the BEST 2401 is narrow stile exit only and non-handed, and the CRL Jackson 1295 Series is a non-handed push pad rim panic device in wide stile for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Sargent 2828 and 3828 are reversible Grade 1 rim devices but are specified for 48 inch minimum door width.
27) What finishes does the Falcon 19-R come in to match my existing storefront?
Three finishes: SP313 dark bronze anodized, US28 aluminum anodized, and US32D satin stainless steel. Dark bronze and clear aluminum anodized are the two that typically match existing aluminum storefront framing; satin stainless is the choice when the rest of the door hardware in the building is 32D.
28) How much traffic will the Falcon 19-R take?
It's specified for medium-traffic commercial use: offices, retail, schools, and multi-family entrances. Grade 1 to A156.3-2001 is the top performance tier for exit devices. On a very high-cycle opening, a main entrance to a stadium or a busy transit building, an extra heavy duty device such as the Detex 40 Advantex narrow stile is the heavier option.
