Hager 4501 MRTN F 48 US26 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What fire rating does the Hager 4501 carry, and will it pass on an A label door?
Up to 3 hours, UL and cUL Listed, for A label single doors. It holds both UL10C positive pressure and UL10B neutral pressure listings. The device is also ANSI/BHMA A156.3-2014 Grade 1. One thing to know about fire-rated exit devices generally: they must latch, so mechanical dogging is not permitted on a fire door even though the 4501 ships with hex key dogging as standard on panic rated devices.
2) Will the Hager 4501 latch into the strike I already have on the frame?
The 4501 comes with its own strike, so plan on using it. It is a stainless steel strike with plated rollers, included standard with panic devices, and it is matched to the 3/4 inch (19mm) throw Pullman latchbolt with automatic dead-latching. Reusing an old rim strike from a different manufacturer risks the deadlatch plunger not riding correctly, which defeats the anti-shim function.
3) What is the night latch function on the Hager 4501 MRTN and when would I use it?
Night latch means free egress from the inside through the push pad, with outside entry by key only through a rim cylinder. There is no outside lever, so nobody gets in without a key. Property managers use it on back-of-house and service exits where staff leave freely but entry has to be controlled. If you want keyed entry that then retracts the latch for a lever, order one of the trim options instead: Archer, August, Charles, Johnston, Joshua, Louis, Warren, William or Withnell lever with escutcheon.
4) Does a cylinder come with the Hager 4501, or do I have to order it separately?
Cylinders are separate. The 4501 takes a rim cylinder for the night latch function, and if you want cylinder dogging instead of the standard hex key, Hager specifies the 3902 1-1/8 inch mortise cylinder, sold separately. Locksmiths keying a building should plan on two cylinders per opening if they go the cylinder dogging route.
5) My aluminum storefront door has a narrow stile. Can I still use the Hager 4501?
No. The 4501 is a wide stile device needing at least 5-3/8 inches (137mm) of stile on a single door with a standard 5/8 inch stop. A typical glass storefront stile is far narrower than that. For those openings, look at narrow stile rim devices such as the Adams Rite 8800 Series, the Corbin Russwin ED4200, the Falcon 19-R, or the TownSteel ED3700. If the storefront door is also fire rated, the Adams Rite 3700 Series is the narrow stile device in that group that carries a fire rating.
6) Which other night latch rim exit device can I use if the Hager 4501 will not fit my stile?
The Hager 4501 is a wide stile pushpad device requiring a minimum 5-3/8 inch stile. For a narrow stile opening, the Sargent 8504 is a night latch function rim exit device of narrow stile design, Grade 1, not wood door compatible. Detex also builds the V4003A/03AN as a Grade 1 wide stile rim exit device with night latch trim if you want to stay wide stile but change manufacturers.
7) If the door is not fire rated, is there a non fire rated equivalent to the Hager 4501 in 48 inches?
Yes. For a 48-inch opening with no label, the Dormakaba 9300 series is a Grade 1 heavy duty wide stile panic rim device in 48 inches with a 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range, and the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 48-inch crossbar rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors. Sargent also lists the 2828 and 3828 as Grade 1 reversible wide stile rim devices for 48-inch doors. The Hager 4501 remains the choice where the opening carries an A label, since it is fire rated.
8) My door is thicker than 2 inches - which rim exit devices will take it?
The Hager 4501 covers 1-3/4 inch doors up to 3 inches, with the night latch configuration topping out at 2-1/2 inches. Most comparable rim devices are built for 1-3/4 inch doors only, including the Corbin Russwin ED5200 and the Falcon 19-R. The Dormakaba 9300 series and Adams Rite 8800 series both extend to 2-1/4 inches, and the Securitron EMB exit bar is listed at 2-1/4 inches. For the thickest leaves the Hager 4501 has the widest thickness coverage of the group.
9) How much does a Hager 4501 push bar stick out into the corridor?
3 inches (76mm) projection undogged, dropping to 2-5/8 inches when the bar is dogged down. That figure matters when the door swings into a tight corridor or when you have a wall-mounted stop or an adjacent door leaf to clear. Note the 4501 is listed as not ADA compliant, so if the opening has to meet accessibility requirements you should be looking at a different device.
10) I need a fire rated 48 inch rim exit device. What else could I use besides the Hager 4501?
The closest cross-brand match on size and rating is the Marks USA M9900F 48 inch fire rated rim device, exit only, with a panic protector end cap. For 36 inch openings, fire-rated rim options include the Marks USA M9900F 36 inch, the Orca Hardware OED85 Series, the Dexter ED1000 Series fire rated Grade 1, and the Arrow FS1250 at 32 inches. Among those, the Hager 4501 and the Dexter ED1000-R-F are the ones we hold a Grade 1 rating on alongside the fire listing.
11) Is the Hager 4501 approved for coastal hurricane zone work?
Yes. Hager states the 4501 meets ANSI requirements as a Severe Windstorm Component and is approved for High Velocity Hurricane Zone areas. Combined with the 3 hour fire listing and Grade 1 certification, that covers the usual stack of requirements on a Florida or Gulf Coast exterior commercial exit. It is a commercial, heavy duty application device, not a residential one.
12) What fasteners ship with the Hager 4501 and do I need anything else to mount it?
Wood and machine screws are supplied. On a metal door you will use the machine screws into tapped or reinforced prep, and Hager recommends the device go on appropriately reinforced doors, so confirm the slab has backing at the pushpad and end cap locations. Beyond the screws and the included stainless strike with plated rollers, the items you may need to add are the cylinder, lever trim if you are not running exit only, and any electric modification, all specified separately.
13) Should I pick a rim device like the Hager 4501 or a vertical rod for my opening?
A rim device latches into a strike on the frame stop, so it suits a single door in a frame, or the active leaf of a pair with a mullion. The 4501 is exactly that: a rim device with an included frame strike and a 3/4 inch Pullman latchbolt. If you have a pair of doors with no center mullion, a rim device has nothing to latch into and you need vertical rods instead. For a single hollow metal fire door up to 48 inches wide, the rim device is the simpler install and the fewer parts to keep aligned.
14) Is the SDC MSB550 switch bar a substitute for the Hager 4501?
No. The SDC MSB550 is a mechanical switch bar that releases an electromagnetic lock, not a latching rim exit device, and it is not fire rated. The Hager 4501 is a fire rated rim exit device with a 3/4 inch throw Pullman latchbolt that latches the door itself. The same distinction applies to the SDC PSB560 pressure sense bar, which is also a non fire rated sense bar rather than a latching device.
15) Does the Detex 00 series dummy exit device work in place of the Hager 4501?
No. The Detex Advantex 00 series is a dummy exit device in wide stile design - it gives the look of a push bar with no latching mechanism. The Hager 4501 is a fire rated Grade 1 rim device with an automatic dead-latching Pullman latchbolt, so it is the one to use where the opening must latch and hold a label. The Sargent 12-8810-LTRIM is likewise catalogued in dummy function despite being a fire rated wide stile device.
16) I want a crossbar look instead of the Hager 4501 pushpad - what are my options?
The Hager 4501 uses a wide stile pushpad with a stainless steel push bar cover. For a crossbar appearance, the CRL Jackson 1095 series is a 48-inch crossbar rim panic device in wide stile, exit only, non fire rated, and the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 48-inch crossbar rim device. CRL also offers the 1095P in a paddle configuration if you want a paddle rather than a bar.
17) Which rim exit device should I standardize on if I need both hex key dogging and a fire rated option?
The Hager 4501 comes with hex key dogging standard and is fire rated, so one series covers both labeled and unlabeled leaves in a facility. Among comparables, Design Hardware's 1000R heavy duty rim device and 2000R standard duty rim device both list hex key dogging but are non fire rated, and the Stanley QED200 series narrow stile device is Grade 1 heavy duty with hex-key dogging. Keep in mind that fire rated devices do not dog in service; the mechanism is there for the non labeled openings in the same standard.
18) What is the difference between the Hager 4501 and a narrow stile Grade 1 rim device like the TownSteel ED8900?
The TownSteel ED8900 is a 36-inch Grade 1 narrow stile heavy duty rim device, non fire rated and not wood door compatible; TownSteel's ED3700 is a similar narrow stile Grade 1 device. Narrow stile devices are built for aluminum storefront and similar slim rails, while the Hager 4501 is a wide stile pushpad device needing a minimum 5-3/8 inch stile on a single door. The Hager is also fire rated, which the ED8900 is not.
19) What finishes does the Hager 4501 exit device come in?
Seven finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, and 630 satin stainless steel. For matching an existing building, 630 satin stainless and 626 satin chrome are the two that read closest to the US32D and US26D hardware already hanging on most commercial openings. The push bar cover is stainless steel with die cast caps and covers on an extruded aluminum body.
