Falcon 912L-NL SP28 DANE RHR – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Falcon 912L-NL exit trim come with a cylinder, or do I have to order one separately?
The 912L-NL night latch trim ships less cylinder. The key cylinder is a separate line item, so plan on adding a rim cylinder that matches your building's keyway and keying when you order. Everything else on the trim, the escutcheon, the lever, and the shear pin, comes as part of the trim.
2) What does night latch function mean on a Falcon 912L trim, and is that what I want on an exterior door?
Night latch means the outside lever is always rigid and the key retracts the latch to get in. Push the bar from inside and you always get out; from outside, no key means no entry. That's the standard setup for a back door or service entrance you want locked around the clock. If you instead want the outside lever to stay unlocked during business hours and only lock at night, night latch is the wrong function. Passage trim like the Corbin Russwin ED3000 series 3310AET, or a storeroom lever like the Marks USA M195F, covers those other patterns.
3) Do I need to order the Falcon 912L-NL trim left hand or right hand?
Handing is on the order form: the 912L-NL is offered LHR (left hand reverse) and RHR (right hand reverse). The lever itself is field reversible, and if handing isn't specified it ships RHR. So if you get the wrong one on site you can flip the lever rather than send it back, but ordering to the door's handing saves you the step.
4) Is the Falcon 912L-NL heavy duty enough for a high traffic entrance?
It is a medium duty commercial trim, sized for moderate traffic openings, offices, tenant spaces, back-of-house doors. On a main entrance cycling all day, step up to a heavy duty night latch trim: the Sargent 704ET and the 704-ETL are both Grade 1 heavy duty night latch lever trims, and the Von Duprin 110MD-NL is a Grade 1 heavy duty night latch cylinder assembly for metal and wood doors.
5) What other brands make a night latch escutcheon lever trim like the Falcon 912L-NL?
Closest matches by function: the Dorma YR03R, a wide stile escutcheon trim with an R lever, night latch function, less cylinder, and the Corbin Russwin VT957ET nightlatch escutcheon trim in stamped or formed stainless steel for the ED5000 series. The Accentra 121NL is a nightlatch trim as well. Trims are device-specific, so the deciding factor is which exit device is already on the door, not the trim alone.
6) I need to control this door from an access control system - what replaces a mechanical night latch trim?
The Falcon 912L-NL is a mechanical trim with no electronic function. For an electrified opening, Command Access offers the ET15, ET25 and ET26 electrified exit trims with 12V and 24V operation and fail safe or fail secure options, with the ET26 built to Grade 1 and field reversible, and the 230L electrified trim for V96, 36 and 23 Series devices. Von Duprin's E360L-BE-03 is a Grade 1 electric passage trim with the 03 lever, fail safe, for 33 and 35A Series devices. For standalone credential control without wiring to a panel, the Dormakaba E-Plex 201U is an electronic pushbutton exit trim and the PowerPlex P201U covers rim, mortise and surface vertical rod devices. Each of these is tied to a specific device family, so match the chassis first.
7) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to the Falcon 912L-NL night latch exit device trim?
For a lever escutcheon trim in night latch function, the Sargent 704ET is the nearest peer - it is a night latch lever exit device trim with field reversible operation, listed as heavy duty and Grade 1. The Falcon 912L-NL is night latch function with a reversible lever and medium duty construction. Dorma's YR03R is another night latch escutcheon lever trim, described as wide stile with an R lever and supplied less cylinder, which matches the less-cylinder configuration the 912L-NL ships in. Confirm the trim is compatible with the exit device chassis on the door before ordering any of the three.
8) I need a Grade 1 night latch lever trim instead of a medium duty one - what should I order?
The Falcon 912L-NL is medium duty construction. Where a specification calls for Grade 1, the Sargent 704-ETL is a nightlatch lever trim with key retract function listed as Grade 1 heavy duty in the PE Series, and the Sargent 744 is a Grade 1 night latch trim for surface vertical rod and mortise 8700 and 8900 Series devices with freewheeling trim where the key retracts the latch. Match the trim to the device family you already have on the opening - the 744 is built for the 8700/8900 chassis, not a universal fit.
9) The opening does not need a lever - what is the simpler night latch trim option?
If a pull is acceptable in place of a lever, the Design Hardware 2P-03NL-32D is a pull trim with cylinder hole in night latch function for the 1000R and 2000R exit devices, and the Dexter ED1500T-PULL-NC is a nightlatch function trim with a raised lip pull plate. The Von Duprin 110MD-NL is a night latch cylinder assembly for metal and wood doors, which gives key-retract operation with no handle at all. The Falcon 912L-NL is the lever version, with a 9 3/4 inch by 2 3/4 inch escutcheon and a lever that returns to within 1/2 inch of the door. Note that a lever is what accessible-design reviews usually look for on the pull side, so confirm the requirement before substituting a pull.
10) What lever styles and finishes can I get on the Falcon 19 Series 912L-NL night latch trim?
Three lever styles: Dane, Quantum, and Sutro. Three finishes: 628 aluminum anodized, SP313 dark bronze anodized, and 619 satin nickel. Each lever style is offered in all three finishes and in both handings, which is what lets a property manager keep one lever look across a building even where the doors hand differently.
11) Does the Falcon 912L-NL lever meet ADA projection requirements?
All levers on this trim return to within 1/2 inch of the door face. A returned lever is the detail ADA looks for, since it won't catch a sleeve or a bag, and 1/2 inch is a tight return. That matters most on healthcare, education, and government openings where every lever on the path of travel gets inspected.
12) What happens if someone yanks hard on the outside lever of a night latch exit trim?
The 912L-NL is protected by a shear pin. Force the locked outside lever and the pin shears, so the lever goes loose instead of the trim or the device taking the damage. The pin is replaceable in the field, so a maintenance tech restores the opening with a small part rather than a new trim. Worth knowing on tenant doors and school exteriors where levers get abused.
13) Can I add the Falcon 912L-NL to an exit device that's already installed, or does the door need new prep?
The function is built into the trim itself, which is what makes it a field retrofit part rather than one that forces you to change the device. That keeps door prep simple and means you can change what the outside of an opening does by swapping trim. Match it to a Falcon 19 Series exit device and confirm the existing cutout against the 9 3/4 by 2 3/4 inch escutcheon.
14) What is the difference between a night latch trim and a storeroom or entry function trim?
Night latch means the key retracts the latch to allow entry and the lever itself does not, which is what the Falcon 912L-NL provides. Storeroom function trim is a different operation - the Tell EDELT80 is a storeroom function escutcheon lever trim, the Design Hardware KIL Storeroom uses a Schlage C keyway with a flat lever, and the Pamex E9000 is a Grade 1 storeroom trim with an L3 lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. Entry function trims such as the Tell EDELT53 keyed entry escutcheon lever trim and the Design Hardware LE08 entry trim with escutcheon operate differently again. These are not drop-in substitutes for a night latch opening.
15) Is there a night latch escutcheon trim in stainless steel rather than an anodized aluminum or bronze finish?
The Falcon 912L-NL comes in 628 Aluminum Anodized, SP313 Dark Bronze Anodized and 619 Satin Nickel. If the opening calls for stainless, the Corbin Russwin VT957ET is a nightlatch escutcheon trim in stamped or formed stainless steel for ED5000 Series devices, supplied less cylinder like the Falcon. It is built for the Corbin Russwin ED5000 chassis, so it is a finish alternative only if you are also on that device family.
16) What are the alternatives to a Falcon night latch trim if I want a keyed lever trim from another maker?
The Accentra AU-441F is an exit device night latch keyed lever trim with the Augusta design, and the Accentra 121NL is an exit device nightlatch trim - both share the night latch operation the Falcon 912L-NL provides with its reversible lever and 9 3/4 inch by 2 3/4 inch escutcheon. Neither Accentra trim carries a fire rating. The Accentra 426F Augusta lever escutcheon trim is built for 6000 and 1800 Series devices and the 446F is classroom function Grade 1, so those two are not night latch replacements.
17) Can I use a rose-mounted lever trim in place of an escutcheon trim on an exit device?
The Falcon 912L-NL uses a 9 3/4 inch by 2 3/4 inch escutcheon, which covers a taller area of the door face. Rose-mounted alternatives include the Marks USA M195F storeroom function lever and rose trim with spring loaded roses for the M9900 touchbar and the M195N lever and rose trim in the M195 Series, plus the Arrow SRX01 Sierra lever with rose in passage function. A rose will not cover an existing escutcheon cutout, so on a retrofit check what the previous trim left behind in the door face before switching.
18) Which night latch trims give freewheeling lever operation instead of a shear pin?
The Falcon 912L-NL protects the lever with an easily replaceable shear pin that gives way under excessive force and can be serviced in the field. The Sargent 744 takes a different approach - it is a Grade 1 night latch trim with freewheeling trim where the key retracts the latch, built for surface vertical rod and mortise 8700 and 8900 Series devices. Both are abuse-resistant approaches for high-traffic openings; the 744 is limited to the Sargent device families it is made for.
19) We are standardizing lever trim across a building - can one night latch trim cover both hands of door?
The Falcon 912L-NL lever is field reversible and ships RHR unless specified, and both LHR and RHR are offered outright in Dane, Quantum and Sutro lever styles. Among the peers, the Sargent 704ET is a night latch lever trim with field reversible operation and the Command Access ET26 electrified trim is Grade 1 with a field reversible design. Field reversible trim lets a facility hold one part number instead of stocking each hand separately.
20) The tenant wants a thumbpiece instead of a lever on the exit door - what are the options?
The Falcon 912L-NL is a lever trim. For a thumbpiece, the Tell EDTHP53 is a thumbpiece exit device trim in keyed entry function for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, and the Dexter ED1000T-CLRM-TP-NC is a Grade 1 ED1000 Series trim with thumbpiece, pull plate and cylinder, supplied less cylinder, in classroom function. Both change the function as well as the handle, so check what key operation the opening needs.
