Falcon 24-R-EO 3 US26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Falcon 24 rim exit device latch into my existing strike?
The 24-R throws a 3/4 inch latchbolt and ships with the Falcon 299F strike as standard. If the strike already on the frame isn't a 299F or an equivalent rim strike cut for a 3/4 inch throw at that height, plan on swapping it and prepping the jamb. Device projection off the door face is 2-3/4 inch, which is what decides your clearance to the frame stop and to anything mounted opposite.
2) What does "exit only" mean on the Falcon 24-R-EO, and can I still get in from outside?
Exit only means no outside trim: push the pad, the door opens, and there is no lever or cylinder on the pull side. It ships less trim. If you need outside access, order the NL-OP night latch with optional pull function instead, which is offered on the same device in every finish. Straight EO is the right pick for a fire exit or a one-way egress door where nobody should be coming back in.
3) Do I have to pick a dogging option on the Falcon 24 exit device?
Yes, dogging is a required choice at order: hex key dogging, cylinder dogging, or less dogging. Hex dogging holds the pad depressed with an Allen wrench so the door pushes free during business hours, and it's the usual retail storefront pick. Cylinder dogging does the same thing keyed, so staff can't dog it without the key, which is what most schools and institutions want. Less dogging is the choice when the opening is fire rated, since dogging is not permitted on a fire door.
4) Can the Falcon 24-R be tied into an access control system?
It can. Request to exit switching is a yes or no selection when you order, and the device option list adds MEL motorized electric latch retraction or EA exit alarm. RX signals the panel that someone pushed the bar; MEL pulls the latch back electrically so the opening can be free on a card read or a time schedule; EA is the local horn for a door that shouldn't be used casually. Pick these at order time, because none of them is a field add later.
5) Is the Falcon 24-R exit device certified Grade 1?
Grade 1 under ANSI A156.3-2001, which is the heaviest commercial duty class for exit devices and what most institutional specs call out by name. It's also UL listed as a panic exit device. Construction is extruded aluminum with a stainless steel push pad cover, and all mounting screws are concealed, so there's nothing exposed on the back of the device for a vandal to work at.
6) Should I use a rim exit device or a vertical rod device on my storefront door?
Use a rim device like the Falcon 24-R when the door is a single leaf, or one leaf of a pair with a center mullion, because it needs a jamb or mullion to latch into. If you have a pair of doors with no mullion, a rim device has nothing to catch and you want a vertical rod device instead, which latches at the head and threshold. ZenSupply carries narrow stile concealed vertical rod hardware for that case, such as the Hager 4601 Series 36 inch narrow stile CVR device.
7) What's the difference between a narrow stile and a wide stile rim exit device?
Narrow stile devices like the Falcon 24-R have a shorter chassis so they fit the slim vertical rail of an aluminum storefront door. A wide stile device won't physically land on that stile. If your door is a hollow metal flush leaf with plenty of face, a wide stile device fits fine and you have more options: the Von Duprin 22-3FT is a Grade 1 wide stile pushpad rim device at 36 inches for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Corbin Russwin ED2200 is another Grade 1 wide stile 36 inch exit only rim device. Measure the stile before you order either way.
8) Will the Falcon 24-R fit a door thicker than 1-3/4 inch?
No. The 24-R is set up for 1-3/4 inch doors only, which covers nearly all commercial leaves but not thicker custom or clad doors. For a thicker leaf, look at hardware with a stated range: the Adams Rite 8800 Series narrow stile rim device covers 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch, and the DORMA 9300 Series wide stile device covers the same range.
9) Will a Von Duprin 22 work on the same aluminum storefront door as a Falcon 24-R-EO?
No - the Von Duprin 22-3FT is a wide stile pushpad device, and the Falcon 24-R-EO is built to narrow stile. Both are Grade 1 non-handed devices for 1-3/4 inch doors at 36 inches, which is why they read as interchangeable on a spec sheet, but a wide stile chassis will not fit the narrow vertical rail of a storefront aluminum door. For a wide stile door the Von Duprin 22-3FT is the right call; for narrow stile stay with the Falcon 24-R-EO or a narrow stile peer such as the TownSteel ED8900 at 36 inches.
10) What is the closest narrow stile Grade 1 rim exit device to the Falcon 24-R-EO in a 36 inch length?
The Corbin Russwin ED4200 is the nearest match: it is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device at 36 inches for 1-3/4 inch doors, the same door thickness the Falcon 24-R-EO is built for. The difference is trim handling - the Falcon 24-R-EO ships less trim as an exit only device, while the ED4200 is catalogued as exit only and accepts trim. The TownSteel ED3700 at 36 inches is also Grade 1 narrow stile if you want a second source on the same opening.
11) The opening needs a fire rated exit device - what replaces the Falcon 24-R-EO?
The Falcon 24-R-EO is an exit only device carrying ANSI A156.3-2001 Grade 1. For an opening where the label drives the order, the Adams Rite 3700 Series at 30 inches is a fire rated Grade 1 narrow stile rim device, and the Dexter ED1000-R-F-EO is a Grade 1 fire rated rim exit device. The Marks USA M9900F is fire rated at 36 inches and 48 inches, exit only. Confirm the label width against the door before you commit.
12) The door is wood - can I still use the Falcon 24-R-EO?
No. The Falcon 24-R-EO is not wood door compatible. Among rim exit devices in the same narrow stile family, the Adams Rite 8700 Series at 30 inches and the Adams Rite 3700 Series at 30 inches are both Grade 1 narrow stile devices listed as wood door compatible, with the 3700 fire rated and the 8700 not. Match the device length to your door width before ordering.
13) Is a pressure sense bar or switch bar the same thing as a Falcon 24-R-EO rim exit device?
No. The Falcon 24-R-EO latches mechanically into the 299F strike with a 3/4 inch throw, so the door is secured by the device itself. The SDC MSB550 at 36 inches is a mechanical switch bar that releases an electromagnetic lock, and the SDC SureExit PSB560 at 36 inches is a pressure sense bar with tri-failsafe technology - both fit narrow or wide stile, but they signal a separate locking device rather than latching the door. Use them where a maglock holds the opening; use the Falcon 24-R-EO where the device must latch.
14) What narrow stile rim device should I use if the door is thicker than 1-3/4 inches?
The Falcon 24-R-EO is built for 1-3/4 inch door thickness. For a thicker leaf, the Adams Rite 8800 Series at 30 inches is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device covering 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch doors. Like the Falcon 24-R-EO it is not wood door compatible and is not fire rated, so it suits a non-labeled metal or aluminum opening.
15) Is a concealed vertical rod device a substitute for the Falcon 24-R-EO rim device?
They are not interchangeable. The Falcon 24-R-EO is a rim device that latches into a surface applied 299F strike on the frame. The Hager 4601 Series at 36 inches is a Grade 1 concealed vertical rod narrow stile exit device, and the Hager 4501 at 36 inches is the Grade 1 concealed vertical rod version with a wide stile pushpad - both latch top and bottom through rods inside the door, which requires a door prepped for that hardware. If the frame is already prepped for a rim strike, stay with a rim device.
16) Does the Falcon 24-R-EO exit device need to be handed when I order it?
No handing to specify. The 24-R is non-handed, so the same device goes on a left or right hand door and one part number covers both. For a property manager stocking spares across a building, that means one shelf item instead of two.
17) What else could I buy instead of the Falcon 24-R narrow stile rim device?
Closest like for like on narrow stile Grade 1 rim hardware: the Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a Grade 1 narrow stile 36 inch rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the TownSteel ED3700 and ED8900 are both Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim devices at 36 inches. The Detex 40 Advantex is the step up in duty, listed extra heavy duty and Grade 1 narrow stile, for an opening that takes real abuse. The BEST Precision 2401 is another narrow stile exit only non-handed rim device.
18) Can I add outside trim to the Falcon 24-R-EO later?
The 24-R uses a single trim input design, so the device side accepts various trim configurations. But the EO version ships less trim and is the exit only build. If you know the opening needs an outside lever or a keyed pull, order the NL-OP night latch version up front rather than buying EO and trying to add access to it.
19) I need a night latch function on a narrow stile door - what are my options besides the Falcon 24-R-EO?
The Falcon 24-R-EO series is ordered in an NL-OP night latch optional pull configuration alongside the plain exit only build. If you are cross-shopping, the Sargent 8504 is a Grade 1 narrow design rim exit device with a night latch function. Both are narrow stile devices, so either can address a storefront opening where the outside needs key retraction rather than free entry.
20) For a 48 inch wide door, what takes the place of the 36 inch Falcon 24-R-EO?
The Falcon 24-R-EO covered here is a 36 inch device. On a 48 inch leaf, the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 crossbar rim exit device at 48 inches for 1-3/4 inch doors, the DORMA 9300 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty 48 inch wide stile exit only device covering 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Dexter ED1000-R-EO-4FT is a Grade 1 rim device in a 4FT length. All three are wide stile or crossbar style rather than narrow stile.
21) What is an extra heavy duty narrow stile alternative to the Falcon 24-R-EO for an abuse prone exit?
The Detex 40 Advantex Series is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device rated extra heavy duty, which is a step above the heavy duty rating carried by narrow stile peers such as the TownSteel ED3700 and ED8900 at 36 inches. The Falcon 24-R-EO answers the same abuse question through construction rather than a duty class - extruded aluminum, concealed mounting screws, flush end caps and a stainless steel push pad cover on a Grade 1 chassis.
22) Which 36 inch narrow stile rim exit device works if I want a second manufacturer standardized across a facility?
For a fleet standard on narrow stile openings at 36 inches, the TownSteel ED3700 and TownSteel ED8900 are both Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim exit devices, the Corbin Russwin ED4200 is Grade 1 narrow stile for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Arrow 4800 Series is a 36 inch narrow stile rim exit device in exit only for 1-3/4 inch doors. None of these is wood door compatible, matching the Falcon 24-R-EO, so the same door types carry across the standard.
23) What finishes does the Falcon 24-R exit device come in?
Twelve finishes, and every one of them is available in both exit only and NL-OP night latch: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 619 satin nickel, 622 matte black, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 628 aluminum anodized, 629 bright stainless, 630 satin stainless, 313AN dark bronze anodized, and 643E aged bronze. For matching existing storefront, 313AN dark bronze anodized and 628 aluminum anodized are the two that line up with standard anodized aluminum entrances; 630 satin stainless is the common match to stainless pulls and rails.
