Falcon 25-R-EO 3 US26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the difference between the Falcon 25-R EO and NL-OP functions?
Exit Only (EO) does what it says: push the pad, walk out, and there is no way to work the latch from the outside, so the door stays locked to anyone approaching it. Night Latch Optional Pull (NL-OP) is the one to order when someone has to get back in, since it takes key-controlled outside trim for re-entry, which is the usual choice on a back, service or roof door. Everything else is the same between them: 36 inch wide stile device, 1-3/4 inch door, non-handed, 3/4 inch latch throw. Both ship less trim, so the outside pull for the NL-OP is a separate line on the order.
2) Does the Falcon 25-R exit device come with outside trim, the strike and the screws?
Strike and fasteners are included, trim is not. A 299 strike is standard with the device, and both sheet metal screws and machine screws come with it, so the door and frame side of the install is covered. The 25-R ships less trim and has one trim input, which means any outside pull or key-controlled nightlatch trim is ordered separately. If you are buying the NL-OP function specifically so people can get back in, order the trim at the same time or the door will be exit only when it lands on site.
3) Can I use a Falcon 25-R rim device on a pair of doors?
Only with a removable mullion between the leaves. A rim device latches at a single point into a strike on the frame, so on a pair with nothing in the middle there is no strike for the latch to catch. Two ways to go: hang a removable mullion and run a 25-R on each leaf, or switch to a vertical rod device, which latches at the head and the sill instead and needs no mullion. For the vertical rod route on a wide stile pair, the Hager 4501 Series 36 inch Grade 1 concealed vertical rod device with a wide stile pushpad is a comparable option.
4) Is the Falcon 25-R rim exit device approved for a fire rated door?
Fire rated and non rated builds are both available, and it is UL listed for panic exit and fire exit hardware, A or B label. The rating is chosen when the device is ordered, so a labeled opening needs the fire rated version called out on the order rather than picked up later. One thing to plan around: fire exit hardware is never dogged, so on a labeled door you cannot hold the latch retracted during the day. If that door needs to stand push-open through business hours, it has to be a non rated opening.
5) Will the Falcon 25-R latch into the strike already on my door frame?
Plan on fitting the 299 strike that comes with the device. The 25-R is a single point rim latch with a 3/4 inch throw, and rim devices catch a surface strike mounted on the frame stop, not the mortised strike pocket left behind by a mortise lock or a cylindrical lockset. So an existing lockset strike is not what this latches into. The 299 is included, and the frame gets prepped for it off the Falcon template.
6) My aluminum storefront door has a narrow stile - what rim exit device should I use instead of the Falcon 25-R?
The Falcon 25-R is a wide stile device, so a narrow stile storefront needs a device built for the narrower rail. Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a 36-inch Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device for 1-3/4 inch doors in exit only function that accepts trim. TownSteel ED3700-36 and TownSteel ED8900-36 are both 36-inch heavy duty Grade 1 narrow stile rim devices. Adams Rite 8800-30 is a 30-inch narrow stile Grade 1 rim device with starwheel interlocking that covers 1-3/4 inch through 2-1/4 inch doors. Detex 40 Advantex is an extra heavy duty Grade 1 narrow stile rim device, and BEST 2401 is a narrow stile rim device in exit only, non-handed form.
7) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to the Falcon 25-R 36-inch rim exit device?
The nearest match is the Von Duprin 22-3FT, a 36-inch non-handed wide stile pushpad rim exit device at Grade 1 for 1-3/4 inch doors - the same 1-3/4 inch thickness and the same non-handed wide stile arrangement the Falcon 25-R is built around. Corbin Russwin ED2200-WO36 is a 36-inch Grade 1 wide stile rim device in exit only function, and the Dexter ED1000-R-EO-3FT covers the same 3-foot opening at Grade 1. TownSteel ED9700-36 is a heavy duty Grade 1 wide stile rim device at 36 inches, and the Detex 10 Series 36-inch is an extra heavy duty Grade 1 wide stile rim device. All of these are single-point rim devices that latch into a frame-mounted strike, so a swap comes down to matching strike and door prep rather than changing how the opening latches.
8) Which rim exit device works on a wood door if the Falcon 25-R does not?
The Falcon 25-R is not wood door compatible. For a wood door, Adams Rite 8700-30 is a 30-inch narrow stile Grade 1 rim exit device with starwheel interlocking that is listed wood door compatible, and Adams Rite 3700-30 is the fire-rated 30-inch narrow stile Grade 1 version, also wood door compatible. Both are narrow stile devices rather than wide stile, so confirm the stile width on the wood door before ordering. Take the 3700 when the opening carries a fire label and the 8700 when it does not.
9) Is a dummy exit device the same as the Falcon 25-R exit only device?
No. The Falcon 25-R in exit only function is a working panic device with a 3/4 inch latch throw into a 299 strike. A dummy device looks the same on the door but does not latch. The Detex Advantex 00 Series is a super-heavy-duty dummy exit device in wide stile Grade 1 form, and the Sargent 12-8810-LTRIM is a fire-rated wide stile rim device supplied in dummy function with RX and MELR. Dummies are used on the inactive leaf of a pair or where the appearance has to match while the door is secured by something else, so they are not a substitute on a leaf that has to latch and provide egress.
10) Can I use an exit switch bar or pressure sense bar in place of the Falcon 25-R rim exit device?
Only if the door is held by a separate electromagnetic lock. The Falcon 25-R does the latching itself, with a 3/4 inch latch throw into a 299 strike. The SDC MSB550 is a 36-inch mechanical switch bar that releases an electromagnetic lock, and the SDC SureExit PSB560 is a 36-inch pressure sense bar with tri-failsafe technology - both fit narrow or wide stile doors and both signal a release rather than retracting a latch. The Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar for 2-1/4 inch doors in the same family of release-style bars. If nothing else is securing the opening, a switch bar leaves the door unlatched, so it is not a drop-in for a latching rim device.
11) Do I need to specify left hand or right hand for a Falcon 25-R exit device?
No handing to call out. The 25-R is non-handed, so one device covers a left hand or right hand door and either bevel, which is what makes it easy to stock a single part across a building instead of two. What you do have to specify on the order is the function, Exit Only or Night Latch Optional Pull, and the finish.
12) Can the Falcon 25-R be electrified for a card reader or access control system?
Yes, and the electrification is specified with the device rather than retrofitted. The 25-R-EO-3FT can be ordered with electric latch retraction in fail safe or fail secure form, or with motorized latch retraction where the door has to sit unlocked on a schedule under an access control system. Fail safe releases on power loss, fail secure stays locked, which is the decision your fire and security requirements make for you. For monitoring, a request to exit switch reports the pad being pushed and a latchbolt monitoring switch reports the latch itself. There is also an exit alarm option for doors that need to be alarmed rather than access controlled. Egress from the inside is mechanical either way, so the bar still lets people out with the power down.
13) Can the Falcon 25-R be dogged so the door pushes open during business hours?
On a non rated opening, yes, and the dogging type is chosen when you order. A hex key version is the common one, cylinder dogging puts that control on a key so a loose hex wrench is not the only thing standing between a locked door and an open one, and a less dogging version is there for openings that should never be held retracted. Fire rated devices are the exception: fire exit hardware is not dogged at all, so a labeled door gets no dogging regardless of what you would prefer.
14) We spec Grade 1 panic hardware across our facilities. Does the Falcon 25-R meet that?
It does. The 25 Series rim device is ANSI/BHMA Grade 1, tested to ANSI A156.3-2001, the exit device standard, and Grade 1 is the highest of the three grades and the one written into most institutional and commercial specifications. It is also UL listed for panic exit and fire exit hardware. Physically it is an extruded aluminum device with a stainless steel push pad cover, flush end caps and no exposed fasteners on the back of the device, which is what keeps it presentable in a school corridor or a hospital service route rather than just passing the cycle test.
15) I have a 48 inch door. Will the 36 inch Falcon 25-R work on it?
No, it is the wrong size. The 25-R-EO-3FT is built for a 36 inch (3 ft) leaf, and code requires the push bar to span at least half the width of the door it is mounted on, so a 3 ft device on a 4 ft leaf will not pass inspection even if it mounts. For a 48 inch leaf, comparable devices include the Dexter ED1000 Series 4FT Grade 1 rim device, the Cal-Royal A9820 Series 48 inch, or the Marks USA M9900F 48 inch if the opening is fire rated.
16) How does the Falcon 25-R compare to the Von Duprin 22 Series rim device?
At the opening they are close to interchangeable. The Von Duprin 22-3FT is also a 36 inch wide stile pushpad rim device, non-handed, Grade 1, for a 1-3/4 inch door, and neither one goes on a wood door. The difference is in what you can order around them: the Falcon 25-R is available in fire rated form and carries the UL fire exit listing, while the 22-3FT is the non fire rated version. Other wide stile 36 inch Grade 1 rim equivalents include the Corbin Russwin ED5200 and ED2200 and the TownSteel ED9700 Series.
17) Is there a lighter-duty alternative to the Falcon 25-R for a door that does not need Grade 1?
The Falcon 25-R is certified ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 under A156.3-2001. If the opening does not call for that, the Cal-Royal 5000 is a 36-inch wide rim device with a touch bar on a Grade 2 heavy duty chassis, and the Cal-Royal 5500 is the 48-inch Grade 2 heavy duty push bar version. Design Hardware 2000R is a 33-inch standard duty wide stile rim device, with the 1000R the heavy duty 33-inch device in the same family, both with hex key dogging. Hager 4701 is a 36-inch standard duty rim device that still carries Grade 1 BHMA certification, which is the option to look at when the specification calls out Grade 1 but the traffic is light.
18) My door is thicker than 1-3/4 inches - which rim exit device covers it instead of the Falcon 25-R?
The Falcon 25-R is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors. For a thicker leaf, Adams Rite 8800-30 is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device rated for 1-3/4 inch through 2-1/4 inch doors, and the DORMA 9300A is a 48-inch heavy duty Grade 1 wide stile rim device covering the same 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch range in exit only function. If the door falls between those, the SDC S6136 Spectra is a 36-inch wide stile rim device rated 1-3/4 inch to 2 inches on a 4-inch stile. Measure the actual leaf thickness first, since the 8800 is a narrow stile chassis and the 9300A is sized for a 48-inch opening.
19) Which other 36-inch rim exit devices carry a fire rating like the Falcon 25-R?
The Falcon 25-R is UL listed for both panic exit and fire exit hardware and is A or B label capable. Among comparable rim devices, Marks USA M9900F-36 is a 36-inch fire-rated rim device in exit only with a panic protector end cap, and the Orca Hardware OED85 is a 36-inch fire-rated rim device in exit only. Dexter ED1000-R-F-EO is the fire-rated Grade 1 version of the ED1000 rim device. Arrow FS1250 is fire rated at 32 inches for 1-3/4 inch doors, and Adams Rite 3700-30 is a fire-rated 30-inch Grade 1 narrow stile device that is also wood door compatible. On a fire door, dogging is not permitted, so match the fire rating to the label on the frame and order the device accordingly.
20) What is the difference between the Falcon 25-R rim device and a concealed vertical rod exit device?
The Falcon 25-R latches at one point, 3/4 inch of throw into a 299 strike mounted on the frame. A concealed vertical rod device instead latches into the head and the sill through rods hidden inside the door, which means different door prep and a different strike arrangement. Hager 4501 is a 36-inch Grade 1 concealed vertical rod device with a wide stile pushpad, and Hager 4601 is the 36-inch Grade 1 narrow stile concealed vertical rod version. Dormakaba QED200 is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow device at 36 inches supplied with a 7-foot rod. Choose vertical rod when the opening is a pair without a mullion or when a frame-mounted rim strike is not workable; choose rim when a single strike on the frame is available.
21) Which 36-inch rim exit devices arrive electrified rather than mechanical only?
The Falcon 25-R is a 36-inch Grade 1 wide stile rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors. If the opening needs the electrification built into the device itself, the SDC S6136 Spectra is a 36-inch electrified architectural rim exit device on a 4-inch wide stile for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Dormakaba E2103 is a 36-inch electrified rim device supplied with 4908A trim in classroom function. The Sargent 12-8810-LTRIM is a fire-rated wide stile rim device with RX and MELR, though it is supplied in dummy function. Access control wiring, power supply, and door cord all have to be planned with the device on an electrified opening.
22) What else offers night latch re-entry like the Falcon 25-R NL-OP function?
The Falcon 25-R is available in Night Latch Optional Pull as well as Exit Only, which gives controlled re-entry from the outside by key. Among comparable devices, the Detex V4003A/03AN is a Grade 1 wide stile rim exit device supplied with night latch trim, and the Sargent 8504 is a narrow stile Grade 1 rim exit device in night latch function for openings where the stile will not take a wide stile chassis. The Falcon 25-R itself ships less trim, so the outside pull or cylinder trim is a separate line either way.
23) I need the exit devices to match the satin chrome hardware already in the building. What finishes does the Falcon 25-R come in?
Twelve finishes, and each one is offered in both functions, so a building can be standardized on a single look while some doors run Exit Only and others Night Latch Optional Pull. The full set: 313AN dark bronze anodized, 643E aged bronze, US3 bright brass, US4 satin brass, US10 satin bronze, US15 satin nickel, US19 matte black, US26 bright chrome, US26D satin chrome, US28 aluminum anodized, US32 bright stainless steel, US32D satin stainless steel. US26D and US32D are the two that most often match existing commercial door hardware.
24) We have old crossbar panic devices on our doors. What changes if we go to the Falcon 25-R?
The 25-R is a touch bar device, not a crossbar, so the look and the feel at the door both change: a flat push pad across the face of the door instead of a horizontal bar standing off it, with a stainless steel pad cover and flush end caps that hold up better where the door gets abused. Door and frame prep is done from the Falcon templates and the 299 strike that ships with the device, so treat it as a fresh prep rather than assuming the old device's holes carry over. If you want to keep the crossbar style across the building, the CRL Jackson 1095 Series and the Corbin Russwin ED3200 are crossbar rim devices in 48 inch.
25) I need a crossbar or paddle exit device instead of a touch bar - what matches the Falcon 25-R otherwise?
The Falcon 25-R uses a streamlined touch bar with a stainless steel push pad cover. For a crossbar look, the CRL Jackson 1095 is a 48-inch crossbar rim panic device in wide stile, exit only, and the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a 48-inch Grade 1 wide stile crossbar rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors. CRL Jackson 1095P is the paddle version of the 1095 in wide stile, exit only, and the CRL Jackson 1295 is a non-handed push pad rim panic device in wide stile for 1-3/4 inch doors. Sargent 3828 is a Grade 1 reversible standard push bar rim device sized for 48-inch doors. Confirm the door width first, since the crossbar options here are 48-inch devices.
