Falcon 2090EO 51IN RHR US26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What door thickness does the Falcon 2090EO exit device mount on?
One thickness only: 1-3/4 inches, which is the standard commercial door. If your opening is a thicker 2-inch or 2-1/4-inch door, the 2090EO is the wrong device. The Adams Rite 8800 Series narrow stile rim device covers 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inches, and the DORMA 9300 Series wide stile device covers the same range.
2) Does the Falcon 2090EO come with outside trim, or can a lever be added for key entry from outside?
It ships less trim, and the exit-only function means there is no exterior access at all. Push the bar, the door opens; from the outside the door stays secured with no cylinder, no lever, no pull. If someone needs to get back in through that leaf, you want a device with a trim option instead, such as the Corbin Russwin ED4200 narrow stile rim device, which is listed as exit only or accepts trim.
3) Do I have to order the Falcon 2090EO by handing?
You pick a hand when ordering, though the device itself is field reversible. Left hand reverse and right hand reverse are both offered, each in four finishes: P13 dark bronze anodized, P28 satin aluminum clear anodized, P35 flat black coated, and US26D satin chrome. On an outswinging exit door the hand is reverse bevel, so stand outside the building: hinges on your right is right hand reverse.
4) Rim exit device or vertical rod, which do I need for my storefront?
A rim device like the 2090EO latches into a surface strike on the frame at the strike jamb, which is the simple answer for a single door or for the active leaf of a pair with a center mullion. It will not secure a pair with no mullion, because there is nothing at the meeting stile to latch into. For a mullion-free pair, go to a concealed vertical rod device that latches top and bottom, such as the Hager 4601 Series narrow stile CVR.
5) What is the closest narrow stile rim exit device to a Falcon 2090EO if I need the same Grade 1 rating on an aluminum storefront door?
The Falcon 2090EO is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device certified to ANSI A156.3-2001, sized 51 inches with a 4-3/8 inch projection and not rated for wood doors. The TownSteel ED3700 is also a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device, heavy duty, at 36 inches and likewise not wood door compatible. The TownSteel ED8900 is a second Grade 1 narrow stile rim device at 36 inches. Corbin Russwin ED4200 is another Grade 1 narrow stile rim device at 36 inches with a 1-3/4 inch door thickness, and it is built to accept exterior trim as well as run exit only, while the 2090EO is furnished less trim in the exit only configuration.
6) The Falcon 2090EO is not fire rated. What narrow stile rim exit device works on a fire rated aluminum opening?
The Falcon 2090EO is an exit only narrow stile rim device certified to ANSI A156.3-2001, which is the panic hardware standard rather than a fire exit hardware listing. When the opening is fire rated, the Adams Rite 3700 Series is a fire rated Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device with starwheel interlocking, offered at 30 inches and also compatible with wood doors. Among wider bar options, the Marks USA M9900F is a fire rated exit only rim device in 36 and 48 inch lengths, and the Orca OED85 is a fire rated 36 inch exit only rim device. Fire rated devices do not include dogging, so the hex dogging on the 2090EO has no equivalent on those units.
7) My door is a wide stile hollow metal door, not aluminum storefront. What rim exit device should I use instead of the Falcon 2090EO?
The Falcon 2090EO is engineered as a narrow stile device for small stile aluminum doors and is not wood door compatible. On a wide stile door, the Von Duprin 22 Series is a Grade 1 wide stile pushpad rim device at 36 inches 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 that can run exit only or accept trim. If a crossbar is wanted rather than a pushpad, the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 wide stile crossbar rim device at 48 inches for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the CRL Jackson 1095 Series is a 48 inch wide stile crossbar rim panic device in exit only function.
8) I need keyed exterior entry, not exit only. What replaces a Falcon 2090EO when the door has to be entered from outside?
The Falcon 2090EO is furnished less trim in an exit only configuration, so there is no exterior access through the device. For a narrow stile opening that needs outside entry, the Sargent 8504 is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device in night latch function, where a key retracts the latch from the exterior. The Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device that is built to accept trim as well as run exit only. On a wide stile door, the Detex V4003A/03AN is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device supplied with night latch trim.
9) Do I need a rim device like the Falcon 2090EO, or a vertical rod device for my pair of doors?
The Falcon 2090EO is a rim exit device: the latch throws to a surface strike on the frame or on the adjacent leaf, which suits a single door with a stop. Where a pair has no mullion and the leaves latch top and bottom, a concealed vertical rod device is the different animal. 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 at 36 inches with a wide stile pushpad. The Dormakaba QED200 is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow device supplied with a 7 foot rod. A vertical rod device requires the door to be prepped for rods, so it is not a surface swap for a rim device.
10) Will an SDC pressure sense bar or switch bar do the same job as a Falcon 2090EO?
No, and this is the substitution that most often goes wrong. The Falcon 2090EO is a mechanical Grade 1 rim exit device that throws a latch into a strike. The SDC PSB560 SureExit is a pressure sense bar with tri-failsafe technology and the SDC MSB550 is a mechanical switch bar with electromagnetic lock release, both 36 inch and both fitting narrow or wide stile doors. Those bars signal a release for an electromagnetic or electrified lock rather than latching the door themselves, so they require a separate locking device and power. The Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar in the same electrified family, specified for 2-1/4 inch doors. If the opening needs a self latching mechanical device on a 1-3/4 inch aluminum door, the 2090EO family is the right form.
11) Can I hold the doors open during business hours with the Falcon 2090EO?
Yes, hex dogging is standard on the 2090EO. Depress the bar, turn the hex key, and the latch stays retracted so the door push-pulls freely all day; back the key out to restore latching at close. The dogging is standard rather than an option, so there is nothing extra to specify. Note that dogging is not permitted on a fire door assembly.
12) Is the Falcon 2090EO rated for a high traffic entrance?
It is certified to ANSI A156.3-2001 at Grade 1, the top commercial durability tier for exit devices, so it is appropriate for a main entrance or a school corridor rather than a back-of-house door. That grade is what most institutional specs call for by name.
13) Will the Falcon 2090EO replace an old crossbar panic device on my aluminum storefront?
Falcon builds the 2090 Series for retrofit onto existing aluminum doors, and the crossbar format matches what is typically being pulled off an older storefront leaf. What decides it is the door itself: 1-3/4 inch thickness and a narrow stile. Old surface strike location on the frame usually needs to be re-templated for the new device rather than reused.
14) Can the Falcon 2090EO be tied into an access control system?
No. The 2090EO is a mechanical exit-only device with no electrical option. If you need the exit to signal or release electrically, look at a purpose-built electrified bar: the SDC S6136 Spectra is an electrified rim exit device, the SDC PSB560 SureExit is a pressure sense bar that fits narrow or wide stile, and the Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar.
15) Which other narrow stile rim exit devices use a crossbar like the Falcon 2090EO rather than a push pad?
The Falcon 2090EO is a rim type crossbar exit device with an aluminum crossbar and center case. Among the narrow stile alternatives, the crossbar layout is the distinguishing point: the TownSteel ED3700 and ED8900 are Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim devices, the Detex 40 Advantex is an extra heavy duty Grade 1 narrow stile rim device, and the BEST Precision 2401 is a non-handed narrow stile rim device in exit only function. If a crossbar is the requirement and the door is wide stile, the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 crossbar rim device at 48 inches.
16) Is the Adams Rite 8800 a direct swap for a Falcon 2090EO narrow stile exit device?
Both are Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit devices and neither is fire rated or wood door compatible, but they are not the same part. The Adams Rite 8800 Series uses starwheel interlocking, is offered at 30 inches, and covers a 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range. The Falcon 2090EO is a 51 inch crossbar device specified at 1-3/4 inch door thickness with a 4-3/8 inch projection. The Adams Rite 8700 Series is closely related to the 8800 but is wood door compatible. Confirm the stile width and existing door prep before treating any of the three as interchangeable.
17) What is the difference between the Falcon 2090EO and a Grade 2 rim exit device like the Cal-Royal 5000?
The Falcon 2090EO is certified to ANSI A156.3-2001 at Grade 1 and is specified for commercial use. The Cal-Royal 5000 is a 36 inch rim exit device with a touch bar on a Grade 2 chassis, listed heavy duty and not wood door compatible, and the Cal-Royal 5500 is a 48 inch push bar rim device also at Grade 2. Grade 1 and Grade 2 are separate ANSI cycle and strength tiers, so on a specification that calls out Grade 1 exit hardware, or on a high traffic opening, the grade difference is the deciding fact rather than the bar style.
18) The Falcon 2090EO comes in a 51 inch length. What rim exit devices cover a wider door leaf?
The Falcon 2090EO is a 51 inch device with field-adjustable sizing. Other rim devices sized for the wider leaf include the Corbin Russwin ED3200, a Grade 1 crossbar rim device at 48 inches, the CRL Jackson 1095 Series at 48 inches in exit only function, the Marks USA M9900F at 48 inches in a fire rated exit only build, and the Dexter ED1000 Series in a 4 foot Grade 1 rim device. The Sargent 2828 is a Grade 1 reversible rim device specified for a 48 inch minimum door width. Measure the leaf and confirm the bar length range before ordering, since exit devices are sized to the door rather than cut to fit on site.
19) I need one exit device to standardize across aluminum storefront and hollow metal doors in the same building. Can the Falcon 2090EO cover both?
The Falcon 2090EO is a narrow stile device built for aluminum storefront and is not wood door compatible, so on a mixed facility it covers the storefront leaves rather than every opening. Two approaches work for standardizing. Keep one manufacturer across stile types: Corbin Russwin offers the ED4200 as a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device and the ED5200 as a Grade 1 wide stile rim device, both at 36 inches for 1-3/4 inch doors. Or use a non-handed universal device where the stile allows, such as the BEST Precision 5101 Series in a non-handed universal design, or the Sargent 3828 Grade 1 reversible push bar rim device for 48 inch doors. Fire rated openings still need a fire rated device such as the Adams Rite 3700 Series.
20) For a high abuse opening, is there a heavier rim exit device than the Falcon 2090EO narrow stile?
The Falcon 2090EO is a Grade 1 device certified to ANSI A156.3-2001 with hex dogging and concealed mounting screws. Where the traffic or abuse level is higher, the Detex 40 Advantex is an extra heavy duty Grade 1 narrow stile rim device, and the Detex 10 Advantex is an extra heavy duty Grade 1 rim device at 36 inches in a wide stile build. The Stanley Security QED200 is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim device with hex-key dogging, and the TownSteel ED8900 is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim device at 36 inches. Extra heavy duty is a manufacturer duty rating that sits above the shared Grade 1 certification rather than replacing it.
21) I need to match crossbar exit devices across several buildings. What else is comparable to the Falcon 2090EO?
For the same narrow stile crossbar look, the CRL Jackson 1095 Series 48 inch crossbar rim device and the Corbin Russwin ED3000 Series 48 inch crossbar rim device are the closest crossbar-style peers, though both are wide stile. Staying narrow stile, the TownSteel ED3700 and ED8900 and the Detex 40 Advantex are Grade 1 narrow stile rim devices, but they use a push bar rather than a crossbar, so they will not visually match a crossbar fleet.
22) Can tenants tamper with the Falcon 2090EO once it is installed?
Mounting screws are concealed on the 2090EO, so the fasteners are not exposed to be backed out from the egress side, and the hex dogging needs the key rather than a thumbturn. For a property manager, that means the device cannot be quietly dogged open or dismounted by whoever has access to the corridor.
23) The Falcon 2090EO is field reversible. Which comparable rim exit devices are also non-handed?
The Falcon 2090EO uses a field-reversible design, so one device covers both left hand reverse and right hand reverse openings and the handing is set during installation. Among the alternatives, the BEST Precision 2401 is a non-handed narrow stile rim device in exit only function, the BEST Precision 5101 Series is a non-handed universal design, the Von Duprin 22-3FT is a 36 inch non-handed Grade 1 wide stile pushpad device, and the CRL Jackson 1295 Series is a non-handed wide stile push pad rim panic device for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Sargent 2828 and 3828 are Grade 1 reversible rim devices for 48 inch doors. Non-handed stock reduces the number of part numbers a maintenance shop has to carry.
