Hager 4501 MRTN 48 US26 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Hager 4501 48-inch rim exit device fit a door narrower than 48 inches?
Yes, within limits. The 4501 is supplied for 48 inch doors and is field sizeable down to 36 inches for panic or fire rated applications. If your opening is well under that, order the shorter device rather than cutting this one down.
2) Will the Hager 4501 latch into an existing rim strike?
The 4501 uses a 3/4 inch (19mm) throw Pullman type latchbolt with automatic dead-latching in stainless steel, and a stainless steel strike with plated rollers ships standard with the panic device. If your frame already carries a standard rim strike, compare the existing strike's lip and prep against the supplied one before reusing it.
3) My door does not have the 5-3/8 inch stile the Hager 4501 needs. What narrow stile rim device can I use?
On an aluminum storefront with a narrow stile, consider the Adams Rite 8800 Series 30 inch narrow stile rim device with a door thickness range of 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch, the Corbin Russwin ED4200 Grade 1 36 inch narrow stile device at 1-3/4 inch thickness, the Falcon 19-R Grade 1 exit only narrow stile at 1-3/4 inch, or the TownSteel ED3700 Grade 1 narrow stile device. The Hager 4501 requires a minimum 5-3/8 inch stile on a single door with a standard 5/8 inch stop.
4) The Hager 4501 is not fire rated. What rim exit device should I use on a fire door instead?
For a labeled opening, look at the Marks USA M9900F in 48 inch or 36 inch, both fire rated exit only rim devices with a panic protector end cap; the Dexter ED1000 Series fire rated Grade 1 rim device; the Orca OED85 Series 36 inch fire rated rim device; or the Adams Rite 3700 Series 30 inch fire rated narrow stile rim device, which is also wood door compatible. The Hager 4501 carries no fire rating.
5) What is a comparable 48 inch wide stile rim exit device to the Hager 4501 if I need Grade 1 on a hollow metal door?
The Sargent 3828 is a Grade 1 wide stile rim exit device with an exit only function built for 48 inch doors, and the Sargent 2828 is a Grade 1 reversible wide stile rim device also rated for a 48 inch minimum door width. The DORMA 9300 Series covers the same 48 inch wide stile territory as a Grade 1 heavy duty panic rim device with a door thickness range of 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch. The Hager 4501 is Grade 1 to ANSI A156.3-2014 and is not wood door compatible, so confirm your leaf is metal or aluminum for any of these.
6) Which other rim exit devices offer a night latch function like the Hager 4501 MRTN?
The Sargent 8504 is a night latch function rim exit device in a narrow design, and the Detex V4003A/03AN is a Grade 1 wide stile rim exit device supplied with night latch trim. The Hager 4501 MRTN pairs its night latch trim with a mortise lock chassis, and its door thickness allowance in the night latch configuration is 2-1/2 inch rather than the 3 inch maximum of the standard build.
7) Can an SDC push bar or switch bar replace the Hager 4501 rim exit device?
No. The SDC MSB550 Series 36 inch is a mechanical switch bar that releases an electromagnetic lock, and the SDC PSB560 Series is a pressure sense bar with tri-failsafe technology; both fit narrow or wide stile doors but signal a separate locking device rather than latching the opening themselves. The Hager 4501 is a mortise rim exit device with a 3/4 inch throw Pullman latchbolt that does the latching. If you want an electrified version of the mechanical device, the SDC S6136 Spectra is an electrified architectural rim exit device with a 4 inch wide stile and a 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch door thickness range.
8) Does the Hager 4501 have dogging, and how much does the pushpad stick out from the door?
Hex key dogging is standard on the panic rated 4501, so you can hold the latch retracted for business hours. Projection is 3 inches (76mm) in the undogged position, which matters where the door swings into a corridor or against a wall.
9) What does the night latch function on the Hager 4501 mean for outside access?
Night latch means free egress from inside via the pushpad, and outside entry only by key through a rim cylinder. The device takes a rim cylinder, and the base function is exit only (Function 1) unless you add lever trim.
10) What lever trim can I order with the Hager 4501 exit device?
Hager offers the 4501 with Archer, August, Charles, Johnston, Joshua, Louis, Warren, William or Withnell lever on escutcheon. Pick the lever style to match the rest of the openings in the building; the device itself is exit only without trim.
11) What is the difference between a rim exit device like the Hager 4501 and a vertical rod device?
A rim device latches into a strike on the frame at the lock stile, which is the simplest option on a single door or on a pair with a mullion. A vertical rod device latches at the head and sill instead, which is what you need on a pair with no center mullion. The 4501 is rim, so plan on a mullion if it's going on a pair.
12) What other 48-inch wide stile rim exit devices could I use instead of the Hager 4501?
Comparable 48 inch wide stile rim devices include the Corbin Russwin ED3200 (Grade 1, crossbar rather than pushpad, 1-3/4 inch doors), the DORMA 9300 Series (Grade 1, 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch doors), the Sargent 2828 and 3828 (Grade 1 reversible, 48 inch minimum door width), and the CRL Jackson 1095 crossbar. If budget drives the choice, the Cal-Royal 5500 48 inch is a Grade 2 push bar device.
13) What fasteners come with the Hager 4501 and what else do I need for the install?
Wood and machine screws are supplied, along with the standard end cap and the rim strike. What you add separately is the rim cylinder for night latch keyed access, any lever trim, and thru-bolts if the door construction calls for them. Templates come with the device for marking the door and frame prep.
14) Is there a Grade 2 alternative to the Hager 4501 for a lower traffic 48 inch opening?
The Cal-Royal 5500 is a 48 inch wide rim exit device with a push bar rated Grade 2 heavy duty, and the Cal-Royal 5000 covers 36 inch openings as a Grade 2 heavy duty touch bar device. Neither is fire rated, and neither is wood door compatible. The Hager 4501 is certified Grade 1 to ANSI A156.3-2014 for heavy duty commercial service.
15) What is the difference between the Hager 4501 pushpad device and a crossbar rim device like the Corbin Russwin ED3200?
The Corbin Russwin ED3000 Series ED3200 is a Grade 1 crossbar rim exit device for 48 inch wide stile doors at 1-3/4 inch thickness, and the CRL Jackson 1095 Series is a 48 inch crossbar rim panic device in wide stile, exit only. Those use a horizontal crossbar actuator; the Hager 4501 uses a wide stile pushpad and projects 3 inch in the undogged position. Crossbar and pushpad devices use different door preparations, so treat them as distinct retrofits rather than drop-in swaps.
16) Which devices besides the Hager 4501 come with hex key dogging?
The Design Hardware 1000R 33 inch heavy duty rim device and the 2000R 33 inch standard duty rim device both include hex key dogging, as does the Stanley Security QED200 Series Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim device. The Hager 4501 carries hex key dogging as standard on panic rated devices.
17) Is the Detex Advantex 00 Series a substitute for the Hager 4501?
No. The Detex Advantex 00 Series is a dummy exit device in a wide stile design, so it provides the look and push action without a working latch. The Hager 4501 is an active Grade 1 device with a dead locking Pullman latchbolt and night latch trim. If you want a Detex device that latches, the Detex 10 Advantex 36 inch is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty wide stile rim exit device.
18) What Grade 1 exit only rim device would standardize alongside the Hager 4501 on 36 inch openings?
For 36 inch leaves in the same wide stile pushpad family, the Corbin Russwin ED2200 is a Grade 1 exit only wide stile rim device, the TownSteel ED1100 is a Grade 1 heavy duty wide stile panic rim device, and the BEST Precision 2101 Series is a 36 inch wide stile rim device. The Hager 4501 itself ships at 48 inch and is field sizeable down to 36 inch for panic or fire rated applications, so one part number can cover both widths if you prefer a single SKU.
19) If I need a non-handed rim exit device instead of the Hager 4501, what are my options?
The BEST Precision 5101 Series is a non-handed universal design rim exit device, the BEST 2401 Series is a non-handed narrow stile rim device in exit only, and the CRL Jackson 1295 Series is a non-handed push pad rim panic device for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Sargent 2828 and 3828 are reversible Grade 1 wide stile devices for 48 inch doors.
20) What finishes does the Hager 4501 48-inch exit device come in?
Seven: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 oil-rubbed satin bronze, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, and 630 satin stainless steel. For standardizing a building, 630 satin stainless is the usual commercial default and 626 the common match to existing lever hardware.
21) What is the 4501 made of, and will it hold up in a high-traffic entrance?
Extruded aluminum body with a stainless steel push bar cover, stainless Pullman latchbolt, and die cast zinc caps and covers. Substrate is listed as zinc and stainless steel. Combined with the Grade 1 rating it's built for heavy duty commercial traffic.
