Falcon 23981160 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Falcon T Series 2-3/8" square corner deadlatch fit my door prep, or do I need the radius corner version?
Square corner is what this Falcon T Series deadlatch is cut for, so it drops into a prep with a square faceplate pocket, which is typical of a metal frame door with a factory routed square mortise. If the existing latch faceplate in your door has rounded corners, this one will not seat flush without re-routing the pocket, and you want the radius corner version of the part instead. Pull the old latch, look at the faceplate corners, and match it.
2) Is the Falcon 23981160 deadlatch a universal part or only for Falcon T Series exit devices?
It is device specific. The 23981160 deadlatch is built for Falcon T Series exit devices, so use it when the device you are servicing is a T Series. Latches from other Falcon families or other brands are not interchangeable here, and neither is this one in them.
3) Can I replace just the deadlatch on a Falcon T Series exit device instead of buying a whole new device?
Yes, that is exactly what this part is for. The deadlatch is the wear item on a rim style exit device, so when the latch drags, fails to deadlock, or the faceplate is chewed up, you swap the latch and keep the rail, baseplate, and trim in place. It is a maintenance level repair, not a device replacement, and it is the cheaper way to get a door back in service for a property manager running a lot of openings.
4) What is the equivalent latch replacement part for an Accentra 7110 or 7120 exit device instead of the Falcon T Series deadlatch?
The Falcon T Series 2-3/8 inch square corner deadlatch is a latching component made for Falcon T Series exit devices, so it does not carry over to an Accentra device. For Accentra 7110 and 7120 exit devices, the Accentra 60-7010-0049-999 top latch replacement component is the part built for that family, and for the fire-rated 7110F the corresponding part is the Accentra 60-7010-0050-999 top latch replacement component. Latching components on exit devices are keyed to the device series and are not interchangeable across manufacturers.
5) The exit device latches fine but we want electric latch retraction - do we replace the deadlatch?
No. The Falcon T Series 2-3/8 inch square corner deadlatch is a mechanical latching component and changing it does not add electric retraction. Adding latch retraction to an existing device is done with a conversion kit for that device family: the Von Duprin 040061 QEL modular conversion kit covers 33A, 35A, 98 and 99 series 3-foot and 4-foot devices with quiet electric latch retraction, and the Von Duprin 04116 QELX modular conversion kit and 041166 QELX baseplate conversion kit cover AX exit devices with quiet electronic latch retraction. Each is matched to its own device series.
6) Is this Falcon deadlatch rated for commercial use in a school or hospital?
Commercial is the intended duty class for this Falcon T Series deadlatch, and the description ties it to Grade 1 and Grade 2 lock systems, which covers the office, education, healthcare, and multi tenant work exit devices normally see. Grade and fire rating on the opening are determined by the complete exit device and its label, not by the latch on its own, so match the replacement latch to the device already installed to keep the assembly as it was specified.
7) What other exit device replacement parts are available if I need a top latch or an electric latch retraction conversion instead of a deadlatch?
The Falcon 23981160 is a deadlatch only, so it does nothing for a vertical rod top latch or for adding electric latch retraction. For a top latch on an Accentra 7110/7120 device there is the 60-7010-0049-999 top latch component, and for the fire rated 7110F there is the 60-7010-0050-999. To convert an existing device to quiet electric latch retraction, Von Duprin sells the 040061 QEL modular kit for 3 foot and 4 foot 33A, 35A, 98, and 99 series devices, and the 04116 QELX modular kit for AX devices. Those are all device specific, same as this latch.
8) How do I know which Falcon T Series latch to order before I pull the door out of service?
Two things decide it: the corner style of the faceplate and the 2-3/8 inch latch dimension. This one is the 2-3/8 inch square corner. Check the old latch against both before ordering, because a radius corner latch will not sit in a square pocket and a different length will not line up with the strike. Falcon publishes the full T Series exit device breakdown in its exit devices catalog if you need to confirm the latch against the device model you have.
9) Is a rim cylinder housing the same thing as the Falcon square corner deadlatch?
They are different parts of the opening. The Falcon T Series 2-3/8 inch square corner deadlatch is the latching component inside a Falcon T Series exit device. The Arrow 16RCR-27 is an SFIC rim housing taking a 6-pin or 7-pin small format interchangeable core, from the Arrow 24/25 series - it is the cylinder side that a key turns, not the latch that engages the strike. A door needing outside key access takes the housing and core; a door with a worn or damaged latch takes the deadlatch.
10) We want key dogging on a 36 inch push bar - does swapping the deadlatch get us there?
Dogging is a separate mechanism from the latch. For Von Duprin 33A devices, the Von Duprin 040070/040071 cylinder dogging with indicator conversion kit is made for 36 inch and 48 inch 33A exit devices and is a Grade 1 kit. The Falcon T Series 2-3/8 inch square corner deadlatch is a latching component for Falcon T Series devices and will not add a dogging function to any device. Match the dogging kit to the device series and rail length stamped on the existing bar.
11) What finishes does the Falcon T Series square corner deadlatch come in?
Two: US26D satin chrome and SP313 dark bronze anodized. On a latch replacement the finish only shows on the faceplate edge of the door, so match it to the existing device trim rather than the door itself. Satin chrome is the common pairing with a 626 style device, dark bronze with a bronze anodized one.
