Hager 4601 RIM 36 US26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Hager 4601 handed, and do I need to order left or right?
No handing to specify. The 4601 is a non-handed rim device, so the same unit works on a left or right hand swing. For a property manager stocking spares across a building, that means one part number covers every opening instead of two.
2) What dogging options are available on the Hager 4601, and what cylinder does cylinder dogging need?
Standard is hex key dogging. You can order less dogging by specifying LD, or cylinder dogging by specifying CD. If you want to add cylinder dogging to a device already installed, the 4926 retrofit kit covers it. Cylinder dogging takes a 1-1/8 inch (29 mm) mortise cylinder, Hager part number 3902, with a standard cam. Note that dogging is only appropriate on a non fire rated opening, which this device is.
3) Does the Hager 4601 meet ANSI Grade 1 and ADA requirements for a school or healthcare facility?
It is BHMA certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3-2014 Grade 1 for heavy duty commercial use, and it complies with ANSI A117.1 for accessible buildings. It is also UL 305 listed as panic hardware with UL 10C positive pressure and UL 10B neutral pressure ratings.
4) What comes in the box with the Hager 4601, and what do I still need to buy?
Every 4601 ships with thru-bolts, wood and machine screws, and a slotted rim strike. The slotted strike lets you shift the keeper to line up the latch instead of re-drilling the frame. Not included: outside trim, a rim cylinder if you want the door keyed from outside, the 3902 mortise cylinder if you order cylinder dogging, and a shim kit if the door has glass bead.
5) Can a wide stile rim exit device be substituted for the Hager 4601 on an aluminum storefront door?
No. The Hager 4601 is built for narrow stile doors with a 2 inch minimum stile width, which is what aluminum and glass storefront construction gives you. Wide stile devices such as the BEST Precision 2101 Series 36 inch, the Corbin Russwin ED5200 36 inch, the TownSteel ED1100 36 inch, and the Detex Advantex 10 Series 36 inch are all rated Grade 1 or heavy duty but are listed as wide stile and need the wider rail to mount. The SDC S6136 is explicitly a 4 inch wide stile device. Keep the substitution inside the narrow stile group.
6) The Hager 4601 is not fire rated - what narrow stile rim device can go on a fire rated opening?
The Adams Rite 3700 Series in the 30 inch size is a fire rated Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device with starwheel interlocking, and it is also listed as wood door compatible. The Hager 4601 carries no fire rating and is not for wood doors, so on a labeled opening the Adams Rite 3700 is the narrow stile route. For fire rated rim devices without the narrow stile requirement, the Dexter ED1000 fire rated version is Grade 1, and the Marks USA M9900F is available in 36 inch and 48 inch.
7) Is a Cal-Royal 5000 rim exit device an equivalent swap for a Hager 4601?
They are not equivalent on grade. The Hager 4601 is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3-2014 Grade 1. The Cal-Royal 5000 36 inch rim exit device with touch bar carries a Grade 2 chassis and is described as heavy duty, and the Cal-Royal 5500 48 inch push bar device is also Grade 2. Where a specification calls out Grade 1, the Cal-Royal A9800 and A9820 are likewise listed as Grade 2. Match the grade on the drawing before substituting.
8) Is an SDC pressure sense bar or switch bar the same thing as a Hager 4601 rim exit device?
No, and this is the substitution that catches people. The Hager 4601 is a mechanical rim exit device with stainless steel latchbolts that latches into a rim strike. The SDC PSB560 Series 36 inch is a pressure sense bar with tri-failsafe technology and the SDC MSB550 Series 36 inch is a mechanical switch bar that releases an electromagnetic lock - both are bars that signal a separate locking device rather than carry a latch themselves. Both SDC units are listed for narrow or wide stile. If the opening has no maglock, they do not replace the 4601.
9) What cylinder type does the Hager 4601 take if I want keyed trim?
The 4601 takes a rim cylinder for keyed outside trim. Locksmiths should note that the cylinder dogging option is a separate opening and uses a 1-1/8 inch mortise cylinder, part number 3902, rather than the rim cylinder.
10) Will the Hager 4601 mount on a door with glass bead or interfacing moldings?
Yes, with a shim kit. Hager offers shim kits for rim devices going onto doors with glass bead kits or other interfacing moldings. Each kit has two 1/8 inch (3.2 mm) shims plus the longer fasteners needed to reach through the added thickness. Order the shim kit alongside the device if the door has a bead.
11) Should I use a rim exit device or a vertical rod device on my opening?
A rim device like the Hager 4601 latches into a strike on the frame at the strike jamb, so it suits a single door, or one leaf of a pair where a mullion or the other leaf carries the strike. If you have a pair of doors with no center mullion and need latching at the head and threshold, a rim device won't do it, and you want a vertical rod device instead. For a narrow stile pair without a mullion, the Dormakaba QED200 is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow device supplied with a 7 foot rod.
12) I have a hollow metal door with a wide stile. Is the Hager 4601 still the right device?
No, the 4601 is a narrow stile device built around a 2 inch minimum stile and is not for wood doors. On a wide stile door you get better pushbar coverage from a wide stile device: the Corbin Russwin ED5200 in 36 inch Grade 1 accepts trim, the TownSteel ED1100 in 36 inch is Grade 1 heavy duty, and the BEST Precision 2101 Series comes in 36 inch. The Detex 10 Advantex 36 inch is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty wide stile option for high traffic.
13) What narrow stile rim device steps up in duty level from the Hager 4601?
The Detex 40 Advantex Series is a narrow stile rim exit device rated Grade 1 and listed at an extra heavy duty level, one step above the heavy duty commercial application the Hager 4601 is specified for. Both are Grade 1 and neither is wood door compatible, so the change is duty level rather than grade or door material. For high traffic entrances in schools and transit facilities, that distinction is the one worth checking.
14) Which narrow stile rim exit devices match the Hager 4601's hex key dogging?
The Hager 4601 ships with standard hex key dogging. The Stanley Security QED200 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim exit device specified with hex key dogging, and the Dormakaba QED200 is the same series in a 36 inch device, Grade 1 heavy duty. Design Hardware also lists hex key dogging on the 1000R 33 inch heavy duty rim device and the 2000R 33 inch standard duty device, though the 2000R is a wide stile unit.
15) The Hager 4601 is 36 inch - what narrow stile rim devices cover a 42 inch or wider leaf?
The Falcon 1590EO and the Falcon 1790EO are both narrow stile rim exit devices sized 42 inches, exit only, Grade 1, and listed for 1-3/4 inch door thickness. The Hager 4601 is factory cut for 36 inch doors, with the recommended overall length equal to the door width minus four inches, so an oversize leaf is where the longer Falcon devices come in. At 48 inch wide stile openings, the Sargent 2828 and Sargent 3828 are Grade 1 reversible devices for a 48 inch minimum door width.
16) What narrow stile rim device gives a night latch function instead of exit only?
The Sargent 8504 is a narrow stile rim exit device with a night latch function, Grade 1, not wood door compatible. The Hager 4601 uses surface mounted escutcheon trim with the locking mechanism built inside, reducing door preparation. Where the outside trim needs a keyed pull that retracts the latch, the Sargent 8504 is the narrow stile night latch option; the Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a narrow stile Grade 1 device listed as exit only and able to accept trim.
17) Can a crossbar panic device replace the Hager 4601 push pad?
Only if the opening suits a crossbar. The Hager 4601 is a push pad device with stainless steel push bar covers on a narrow stile aluminum door. The CRL Jackson 1095 Series 48 inch crossbar rim panic device and the Corbin Russwin ED3200 48 inch crossbar rim device are both wide stile, exit only crossbar designs. CRL Jackson also offers the 1095 Series in a paddle version and the 1295 Series as a non handed push pad, both wide stile. A crossbar projects further into the opening and mounts on a wider rail than a 2 inch stile provides.
18) Which non handed rim exit devices are comparable to the Hager 4601 for stocking one part across both hands?
The Hager 4601 is a non handed device, which is why one part number covers both hands. The BEST 2401 Series is a narrow stile rim exit device, exit only and non handed, and the BEST Precision 5101 Series is a non handed universal design rim device. The Sargent 2828 and 3828 are reversible Grade 1 rim devices for 48 inch openings. For a property manager standardizing a fleet of storefront doors, any of these removes the handing call at order time.
19) Is the Arrow 4800 Series a match for the Hager 4601 on a narrow stile aluminum door?
It is the closest Arrow option. The Arrow 4800 Series is a 36 inch narrow stile rim exit device, exit only, listed for 1-3/4 inch door thickness and not wood door compatible, matching the Hager 4601 on size and narrow stile construction. Arrow's 3880 Series 30 inch rim exit bar is a wide stile pushpad and will not sit on a 2 inch stile. Arrow's FS1250 is a 32 inch fire rated rim device, which covers a different application than the non fire rated 4601.
20) Can I get the Hager 4601 in a finish that matches the other door hardware in my building?
Seven finishes are offered on the 4601: 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 aluminum storefront work 630 and 626 are the usual matches to existing pulls and closers.
21) How much door prep does the Hager 4601 need compared to other exit devices?
Prep is light for a device of this grade. The escutcheon trim is surface mounted with the locking mechanism built inside it, so fewer holes go through the door than with a trim that requires a through-door lock case. The slotted rim strike absorbs frame alignment variance, so the keeper can be adjusted rather than the frame re-drilled.
22) What is the Hager 4601 exit device made of, and will it hold up in a high traffic entrance?
The body is extruded aluminum with stainless steel push bar covers and stainless steel latchbolts, plus die cast caps and covers. Substrate is listed as zinc and stainless steel. It carries ANSI/BHMA A156.3-2014 Grade 1 certification, which is the heavy duty commercial tier and the one to specify for a main entrance or a school corridor.
