Falcon 19V-EO 4 689 RHR – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What do I have to specify when ordering a Falcon 19 Series vertical rod exit device?
Four choices get made at order time on the 19-V-EO. Finish (US32D satin stainless, US28 aluminum anodized, or SP313 dark bronze anodized), handing (left or right), dogging (hex key dogging, cylinder dogging, or less dogging), and whether you want it less bottom rod. There's also an AX accessible device option, yes or no. It ships less trim, so if the outside needs a pull or a lever you order that separately.
2) Does the Falcon 19-V-EO come with a strike, or do I have to order one?
The 3788 strike is surface applied and comes standard with the 19-V-EO. Surface applied means it mounts to the face of the frame head rather than needing the frame mortised, which is what makes this device workable on a retrofit. The latch throw is 3/4 inch, so if you're reusing an existing top strike instead, it has to give you 3/4 inch of engagement.
3) Can a Falcon 19-V-EO secure a pair of doors without a mullion?
It can. A surface vertical rod device latches at the frame head and at the threshold rather than into the jamb, so a pair of doors can be fitted with a device on each leaf and no center mullion in between. That's the main reason to choose vertical rod over a rim device, which needs a mullion on a pair. Note the 19-V-EO is 48 inch, so each leaf has to be a 48 inch door.
4) The opening is a fire-rated door - can I use the Falcon 19-V-EO on it?
No. The Falcon 19-V-EO is not fire rated, so it does not belong on a labeled opening. For a fire-rated surface vertical rod device, the Arrow S1150 is fire rated and is listed for narrow or wide stile at 1-3/4 inch door thickness, sold exit device only, less trim. The Adams Rite 3100 Series is another fire-rated Grade 1 surface vertical rod option at 1-3/4 inch thickness, though it is a wide stile device and will not suit a narrow stile aluminum door.
5) What is the closest narrow stile surface vertical rod equivalent to the Falcon 19-V-EO in another brand?
The Von Duprin 3327A is the closest narrow stile match. Like the Falcon 19-V-EO, it is a Grade 1 surface vertical rod exit device built for narrow stile doors at 1-3/4 inch thickness, in a grooved case. The Falcon 19-V-EO is offered in a 48 inch size, while the Von Duprin 3327A-3ft covers 36 inch doors, so confirm the door width before swapping. Both are non-fire-rated devices.
6) Which surface vertical rod devices look like a substitute for the Falcon 19-V-EO but are not?
Two to rule out. The Sargent 12-8710 is a Grade 1 surface vertical rod device in the 8700 Series, but its function is dummy - it does not latch or release like the exit only Falcon 19-V-EO, so it is not a functional swap. The Corbin Russwin ED7400 is a Grade 1 narrow stile surface vertical rod for 1-3/4 inch doors, but it is a crossbar device rather than a push pad, which changes the look and the feel on the door compared with the Falcon stainless steel push pad.
7) What is the closest alternative to a Falcon 19-V-EO narrow stile vertical rod exit device?
Staying narrow stile, non fire rated, and Grade 1, the nearest equivalents are the Corbin Russwin ED4400, the Von Duprin 3327A, the Von Duprin 7527, the TownSteel ED3727, and the Adams Rite 8200 Series. The two Von Duprin narrow stile devices are listed as not wood door compatible, while the TownSteel ED3727 is wood door compatible, which matters if the opening is a wood leaf. All of those are catalogued at 36 inch except the Adams Rite 8200 at 30 inch, so match the size to your door.
8) Do I have to order the Falcon 19-V-EO left hand or right hand?
Handing is picked on the order, but the device itself is non-handed and field reversible, so a hand chosen wrong isn't a scrapped part. Left hand and right hand are both offered in all three finishes: US32D satin stainless, US28 aluminum anodized, and SP313 dark bronze anodized.
9) Should I order the Falcon 19-V-EO less bottom rod?
Less bottom rod drops the bottom rod and strike so nothing runs down to the threshold. That's the usual call on a door where the bottom rod collects dirt or gets kicked, on an exterior opening, or where a floor strike is a trip hazard. Order it with the bottom rod when you want the door latched top and bottom for security. The standard build latches with a deadlocking top latch and a square bolt at the bottom.
10) Which dogging option should I pick for a storefront that stays unlocked during business hours?
Cylinder dogging if you want the pushpad held down with a key, hex dogging if a hex wrench in the maintenance kit is acceptable and only staff should be doing it. Both hold the latches retracted so the door pushes free during business hours. Less dogging is the choice when you never want the device dogged. Cylinder dogging needs a mortise cylinder, ordered separately.
11) Can I add a lever or pull to the outside of the Falcon 19-V-EO later?
The 19-V-EO ships exit only, less trim, and it's ready to accept trim, so outside trim can be added. Exit only as it comes means there's no outside operation at all, push to exit from inside and the door stays secure from outside. If you know from the start you want keyed entry from outside, order the trim with it.
12) Is the Falcon 19-V-EO heavy duty enough for a school or apartment building entrance?
It's certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3-2001 Grade 1, which is the top commercial durability tier for exit devices, and it's a commercial-rated device. The pushpad is stainless steel. Grade 1 covers the traffic in an apartment common door, a school corridor, or an office entrance. What it will not do is go on a labeled fire door, since it carries no fire rating.
13) What is the difference between the Falcon 19-V-EO and the Corbin Russwin ED4400?
Both are Grade 1 narrow stile surface vertical rod exit devices for 1-3/4 inch doors, and neither is fire rated. The Falcon 19-V-EO ships less trim in an exit only function and is ready to accept any trim function. The Corbin Russwin ED4400 is listed as exit only, accepts trim, in the ED4000 Series at 36 inches. The Falcon is field reversible and covers a 161 door prep.
14) Is there a lower-grade surface vertical rod device if Grade 1 is more than the opening needs?
Yes. The Falcon 19-V-EO is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3-2001 Grade 1. Where a Grade 2 device is acceptable, the Dexter ED2000 Series is a Grade 2 surface vertical rod panic device and the TownSteel TS5100 Series is a heavy duty Grade 2 wide stile surface vertical rod for 36 by 84 inch doors. Neither is fire rated. Check the door stile type before choosing, since the TS5100 is a wide stile case.
15) I need a narrow stile vertical rod device on a wood door - does the Falcon 19-V-EO work?
The Falcon 19 Series publishes wood door templates alongside its hollow metal door templates. If you want a peer that states wood door compatibility outright, the TownSteel ED3727 in the 8900 Series is a Grade 1 narrow stile surface vertical rod for 36 by 84 inch doors listed as wood door compatible and not fire rated. By contrast, the Von Duprin 7527 is a Grade 1 narrow stile device that is listed as not wood door compatible.
16) What other narrow stile surface vertical rod devices should I cross-shop against the Falcon 19-V-EO?
Beyond the Falcon 19-V-EO, the narrow stile field includes the Adams Rite 8200 Series, a Grade 1 non-fire-rated life-safety narrow stile surface vertical rod at 30 inches, and the Von Duprin 7527 in the 75 Series, a Grade 1 narrow stile device for 1-3/4 inch doors at 3 ft. All three are non-fire-rated Grade 1 narrow stile surface vertical rod devices, so the deciding factors are door size and the trim and dogging you need.
17) Is there a reversible surface vertical rod device besides the Falcon 19-V-EO for a mixed-handing building?
Yes. The Falcon 19-V-EO is non-handed and field reversible, which lets one part number cover both hands. The BEST Precision 5201 Series is a 36 inch reversible surface vertical rod exit device and is not fire rated. The Sargent 2727 is a reversible Grade 1 fire rated wide stile surface vertical rod device if the opening carries a label.
18) Is there a cheaper or lighter duty vertical rod exit device than the Falcon 19 Series?
If Grade 1 isn't required, the Dexter ED2000 Series and the TownSteel TS5100 Series are Grade 2 surface vertical rod devices, and the Design Hardware 2000V is a standard duty vertical rod. The Orca OED56 Series is a standard duty device that comes less bottom rod, non-handed, in aluminum finish, for 1-3/4 inch doors. Grade 2 is a lower cycle-life tier than Grade 1, so it suits lower traffic openings, not a main entrance in a busy building.
19) Which Dexter surface vertical rod device is the closest Grade 1 alternative to the Falcon 19-V-EO?
The Dexter ED1000 Series is a Grade 1 surface vertical rod exit device and is the nearest Grade 1 Dexter option. The Dexter ED1500 Series is also Grade 1 surface vertical rod and is not fire rated. The Falcon 19-V-EO carries ANSI A156.3-2001 Grade 1 certification with a 3/4 inch latch throw and a 2-1/2 inch projection off the door face, which is worth checking against clearance at the opening.
