Falcon F-19-V-L-D SP313 4 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I put the Falcon 19-V exit device on a fire rated door?
Yes. The 19-V is fire rated construction, with optional 1-1/2 hour "B" label fire exit hardware. One thing that follows from that: fire exit hardware cannot be dogged down, so if you order the device for a labeled opening, take the Less Dogging option rather than hex or cylinder dogging. Hex or cylinder dogging belongs on the non-labeled openings where you want the door to push free during business hours.
2) What do I have to specify when ordering a Falcon 19-V vertical rod device with lever trim?
Five decisions. Handing, RHR or LHR, even though the device itself is field reversible, the trim and rod assembly get set up for the opening. Bottom rod or less bottom rod. Dogging: hex, cylinder, or less dogging. Whether you want the AX accessible device option. And the trim itself, which comes as 912L lever trim, 912L-NL night latch, 912L-BE blank escutcheon, or 912L-DT dummy trim. Finish is US28 aluminum anodized, SP313 dark bronze anodized, or US32D satin stainless, in Dane, Quantum, or Sutro lever style.
3) Will the Falcon 19-V replace an existing exit device without new door prep?
In most retrofits, yes. The 19-V covers standard 161 door prep, which is the common cylindrical lock prep on commercial doors, so it drops onto a door that previously carried a cylindrical lockset or a device using that prep without patching the face. Mounting screws are concealed, so nothing shows once it's set. Falcon publishes hollow metal and wood door template indexes for the 19 Series, and those are what you check the existing hole pattern against before you order.
4) Do I need a mullion between a pair of doors if I use the Falcon 19-V?
No. A surface vertical rod device latches into the frame head and at the threshold rather than into the edge of the opposite leaf, so a pair of 19-V devices secures both leaves with no center mullion and leaves the full opening clear. That's the reason to pick vertical rod over a rim device: a rim device latching into a strike needs either a single door or a removable mullion between the pair.
5) Will the Falcon 19-V latch into my existing strike?
The top latch throws 3/4 inch, and the device ships with the 3788 strike as a surface applied standard. Surface applied means it mounts to the face of the frame stop rather than needing the frame mortised, so it works on frames that were never prepped for a vertical rod. If you have an existing strike from another manufacturer, measure your gap and compare against that 3/4 inch throw before you plan to reuse it; the supplied 3788 is the known-good pairing.
6) I have wide stile doors. Can I use the Falcon 19-V?
No, it's the wrong device for that opening. The 19-V is built as a narrow stile device and the case and mounting are sized for it. For wide stile leaves, look at the Von Duprin 2227 Grade 1 for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Corbin Russwin ED5400 Grade 1, or, if the opening is fire rated, the Adams Rite 3100 Series or the TownSteel EF9727, both of which are fire rated Grade 1 wide stile.
7) What looks like a substitute for a Falcon 19-V with lever trim but is not?
The Sargent 12-8710 is a fire rated Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod device, but its function is dummy, meaning it is a push side appearance match with no latching, not an operating exit device. The Arrow 3700 Series and the Orca OED56 Series are also exit only devices with no operating trim. The Falcon 19-V is supplied with operating 912L lever trim and a deadlocking top latch with a 3/4 inch throw, so those exit only and dummy devices do not cover the same function.
8) What does less bottom rod do on a vertical rod exit device, and should I order it?
Less bottom rod deletes the lower rod and the square bottom bolt, so the device latches only at the head. People order it where the bottom rod is a trip hazard, where the floor is uneven or gets wet and mopped, or where a bottom strike in the threshold keeps fouling with grit. You give up the second latching point at the sill. The Falcon 19-V offers it as an order option; the full-rod version latches at both the deadlocking top latch and the square bolt at the bottom.
9) Is the Falcon 19-V exit device Grade 1, and what traffic level is it built for?
Grade 1, certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3-2001. Falcon positions the 19 Series for light to medium duty commercial traffic, so it suits offices, schools, retail, and multi-family stair and exit doors rather than a high-cycle main entrance. Push pad surface is stainless steel, which is what keeps the appearance up on a door that gets pushed all day.
10) What's the difference between the 912L lever trim and the 912L-NL night latch on a Falcon 19 Series device?
912L is standard lever trim: turn the lever from the outside and it retracts the latch. 912L-NL night latch trim is key-only entry, no lever operation from outside, which is what you want on a rear service door or a delivery entrance that stays locked and gets opened by an authorized keyholder. 912L-BE is a blank escutcheon with no outside operation at all, an exit-only door. 912L-DT is dummy trim, a pull that doesn't operate the device. All four come in Dane, Quantum, or Sutro lever style.
11) Is the Falcon 19-V handed, and can I stock one device for both left and right hand doors?
The device body is field reversible, so a single 19-V can be configured for either hand on site without extra parts. Property managers standardizing across a building can stock one device rather than two. Handing is still called out on the order as RHR or LHR so the assembly arrives set up for the opening you're doing.
12) My opening isn't fire rated. Is there a cheaper or simpler narrow stile vertical rod device than the Falcon 19-V?
If the door carries no label, you don't need to pay for fire exit construction. Narrow stile surface vertical rod options without a fire rating include the Adams Rite 8200 Series life-safety device, the Corbin Russwin ED4400 Grade 1 (exit only, accepts trim), the TownSteel ED3727 Grade 1, and the Von Duprin 3327A grooved case Grade 1. The trade-off is that none of those can go on a labeled opening later, so if the building might get a fire rated door in that frame, staying with the 19-V keeps your options open.
13) Can I dog down a Falcon 19-V so the door pushes open freely during the day?
Yes, on non-labeled openings. The 19-V is ordered with hex dogging, cylinder dogging, or less dogging. Hex dogging uses an Allen key, which is fine where only staff touch it. Cylinder dogging takes a key, which is what you want in a school or a building where you don't want anyone with a hex wrench holding the latch retracted. On a fire rated opening, order less dogging.
14) Which narrow stile vertical rod exit devices accept lever trim like the Falcon 19-V?
The Falcon 19-V ships with 912L lever trim in Dane, Quantum, and Sutro lever styles, plus blank escutcheon, night latch, and dummy trim configurations. Among the narrow stile peers, the Corbin Russwin ED4400 is an exit only device that accepts trim, and the Corbin Russwin ED7400 is a narrow stile crossbar device that accepts operator trim; both are non fire rated. The Von Duprin 3327A and 7527 are narrow stile Grade 1 devices for 1-3/4 inch doors, also without a fire rating.
15) I need a reversible vertical rod device for a door where handing may change. What are my options?
The Falcon 19-V is field reversible, so one device configures for left or right hand without extra parts. Among the peers, the BEST Precision 5201 Series is a reversible surface vertical rod device and the Sargent 2727 is a reversible Grade 1 fire rated device, while the Von Duprin 2227 is non-handed. The 5201 and the 2227 are not fire rated, so on a labeled opening the reversible options narrow to the Falcon 19-V and the Sargent 2727.
16) Which vertical rod exit devices work on a wood door if the Falcon 19-V does not fit my opening?
Among the peers, the TownSteel 9700 Series EF9727 is wood door compatible and fire rated Grade 1, and the TownSteel 8900 Series ED3727 narrow stile and ED8927 wide stile devices are wood door compatible Grade 1 without a fire rating. The Von Duprin 7527 and 7827 are listed as not wood door compatible. The Falcon 19-V has wood door templates published in the 19 Series template index.
17) What does the AX option add on a Falcon 19 Series exit device?
AX is the accessible device option, ordered as yes or no on the 19-V. Facilities working to accessibility requirements specify it so the opening force and operation suit users with limited strength. Because it is an order-time option and not a field add, decide it before the order goes in rather than after the device is on the door.
18) What finishes does the Falcon 19-V lever trim exit device come in, and will it match my other doors?
Three finishes across the whole 19-V lever trim range: US28 aluminum anodized, SP313 dark bronze anodized, and US32D satin stainless steel. US28 matches clear anodized aluminum storefront, SP313 matches dark bronze anodized storefront, and US32D matches the brushed stainless commonly used on hollow metal openings. Each finish is available in all three lever styles, Dane, Quantum and Sutro.
19) For a standard duty non rated exit, what is a simpler vertical rod device than the Falcon 19-V?
The Design Hardware 2000V Series is a standard duty surface vertical rod device and the Orca OED56 Series is a standard duty device supplied less bottom rod in aluminum finish, non-handed; neither is fire rated. The Design Hardware 1000V Series is the heavy duty version, also non rated. The Falcon 19-V is the Grade 1 fire rated device with lever trim, so these standard duty devices are for unlabeled openings without operating trim.
