Hager 4701 SVR 36X84 ALM – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Hager 4701 surface vertical rod exit device work on a pair of doors with no center mullion?
Yes. The 4701 SVR latches at the head and at the threshold rather than into a strike on the jamb, so it secures an opening that has no center mullion. That is the main reason to pick a surface vertical rod over a rim device: a rim device throws its latch sideways into a strike, so on a pair it needs a mullion or a strike on the inactive leaf. On a 36 inch active leaf you'd order the 4701 SVR as cut, and mirror it on the other leaf for a full pair.
2) I have a 7 foot door opening. Does the Hager 4701 SVR come long enough, or do I need extension rods?
An 84 inch (2134 mm) opening is the standard build, so a 7 foot door is covered with no extras. The device can also be ordered for a 96 inch (2438 mm) opening, and both 36 x 84 and 36 x 96 are stocked in all five finishes. Above 96 inches, up to 120 inches (3048 mm), extension rods are what get you there.
3) Does the Hager 4701 meet ANSI Grade 1 and ADA for a school or healthcare specification?
It's BHMA certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3-2014 at Grade 1, and it's ADA compliant, which covers the two lines most institutional specs put on the drawing for panic hardware. It also carries ANSI A250.13 Severe Windstorm Resistant Component certification, which matters if the opening sits in a wind-borne debris region. What it does not carry is a fire rating, so it can't be used on labeled openings such as stair or corridor doors in a rated wall.
4) Should I use a surface vertical rod device or a rim exit device on my opening?
It comes down to whether the opening is a single door or a pair. A rim device throws one latch into a strike on the frame, which is the simpler and lower-profile choice on a single door. A surface vertical rod like the Hager 4701 SVR runs rods up and down the leaf to latch at the head and threshold, which is what you need on a pair without a mullion, and it gives you two latching points on a door that gets abused. If yours is a single door, ZenSupply's rim options in the same 36 inch width include the Corbin Russwin ED2200, the BEST Precision 2101 wide stile, and the TownSteel ED1100. Rods do sit exposed on the door face and need periodic adjustment, which is the tradeoff for losing the mullion.
5) Is the Hager 4701 wide stile or narrow stile, and will it fit an aluminum storefront door?
Wide stile pushpad. That rules out most aluminum storefront leaves, which have a narrow vertical stile that a wide stile pushpad chassis won't sit on. For a glass front installer working storefront, the narrow stile devices ZenSupply stocks are the better match: the Adams Rite 8700 and 8800 Series, the TownSteel ED3700 and ED8900 in 36 inch, and the Corbin Russwin ED4200. Note the Adams Rite 8800 is not rated for wood doors while the 8700 is.
6) What is the closest equivalent to the Hager 4701 SVR if I need a fire-rated exit device on the same 36 inch opening?
The Hager 4701 is not fire rated, so a fire-rated opening needs a different device. On a 36 inch door, the Marks USA M9900F is a fire-rated rim exit device in exit only function, and the Orca Hardware OED85 is a 36 inch fire-rated rim exit device, also exit only. The Dexter ED1000 Series is available in a fire-rated Grade 1 rim version as well, matching the 4701's Grade 1 certification.
7) Which Grade 1 wide stile rim exit device is the nearest cross-brand match to the Hager 4701 on a 36 inch door?
The Hager 4701 is a Grade 1 wide stile pushpad device cut for a 36 inch door. Cross-brand devices with the same Grade 1 rating, wide stile design, and 36 inch width include the TownSteel ED1100 in the 1000 Series, the Corbin Russwin ED5200 in the ED5000 Series, the Corbin Russwin ED2200 in exit only function, and the Imperial USA ED-501 in the ED-500 Series. The Detex 10 Advantex is also a 36 inch Grade 1 wide stile rim device, built to an extra heavy duty level.
8) Is a Cal-Royal 5000 or A9800 the same thing as the Hager 4701 for a commercial exit?
They are not the same certification level. The Hager 4701 carries a Grade 1 rating under ANSI A156.3-2014, while the Cal-Royal 5000 36 inch rim device and the Cal-Royal A9800 36 inch exit only rim device are both Grade 2 chassis rated at a heavy duty level. If a Grade 1 device is what the spec calls for, the Cal-Royal pair will not satisfy it.
9) The door is a wood door. Will the Hager 4701 comparables work, or do I need a specific device?
Most rim devices in this class are specified for metal or aluminum doors rather than wood. Among the cross-brand options, the Adams Rite 3700 Series fire-rated narrow stile rim device and the Adams Rite 8700 Series narrow stile rim device are both listed as wood door compatible, and both are Grade 1 at 30 inches. The Adams Rite 8800 Series, by contrast, is not wood door compatible even though it shares the same narrow stile Grade 1 design.
10) The opening is a 48 inch leaf, not 36. What rim exit device covers that width?
The Hager 4701 covered here is factory cut for a 36 inch door. For a 48 inch leaf, the Dormakaba 9300 Series is a 48 inch Grade 1 wide stile panic rim device in exit only function for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a 48 inch Grade 1 crossbar rim device, the Marks USA M9900F is offered in a 48 inch fire-rated exit only version, and the Sargent 2828 is a Grade 1 reversible rim device for a 48 inch minimum door width.
11) What looks like a substitute for the Hager 4701 but is actually a different kind of device?
Several 36 inch bars sit next to the Hager 4701 in a search but do a different job. The SDC MSB550 is a mechanical switch bar with electromagnetic lock release, and the SDC SureExit PSB560 is a pressure sense bar with tri-failsafe technology, both of which signal a separate locking device rather than latching the door themselves. The Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar. The Detex Advantex 00 Series is a dummy exit device with wide stile design, so it has no latching function at all. The Hager 4701 is a mechanical device with dead locking stainless steel Pullman type latchbolts.
12) Does the Hager 4701 exit device have to be ordered handed?
No handing to specify. The 4701 is non-handed, so one part covers left hand and right hand openings and a property manager stocking spares only has to carry one. You pick finish, opening height, and door thickness; handing isn't one of the choices.
13) Can you hold the Hager 4701 unlocked during business hours?
Hex key dogging is standard on the 4701, so staff can depress the pushpad and dog it down with an allen wrench to keep the door in free push-pull during open hours, then undog at close. Worth noting that dogging is only legal on non-rated openings, and this device is non-rated, so there's no conflict. If you want the same feature from another brand ZenSupply carries, the Design Hardware 2000R standard duty rim device also ships with hex key dogging.
14) What kind of cylinder do I need for the Hager 4700 Series exit device?
A rim cylinder. The 4700 Series takes rim cylinder prep, not a mortise cylinder, so a locksmith keying this into an existing system needs a rim cylinder in the building's keyway with the correct tailpiece. The cylinder is not part of the device itself, so order it alongside.
15) How much door prep does the Hager 4701 need compared to other exit devices?
Less than most. The escutcheon trim surface mounts with the locking mechanism built inside it, which cuts the number of holes that have to go through the door leaf, and the strikes are slotted so the top and bottom latch alignment is adjusted with a screwdriver instead of a re-drill. On a retrofit where you're working an existing leaf in place, that's the difference between a template job and a machining job.
16) Is the Hager 4701 heavy duty enough for a high traffic entrance?
The 4701 is a standard duty commercial device. It's Grade 1 certified and built from zinc, stainless steel, brass and bronze with dead locking stainless steel Pullman type latchbolts, but Hager positions it as security and performance at economy pricing, which suits an office, retail, or back-of-house door rather than a main entrance cycling all day. For a genuinely punishing opening, ZenSupply carries extra heavy duty options like the Detex Advantex 10 Series 36 inch wide stile and the Detex 40 Advantex narrow stile, and heavy duty units like the TownSteel ED9700 and the Design Hardware 1000R.
17) Can the Hager 4701 SVR be tied into an access control system?
The 4701 SVR as built is a mechanical device with hex key dogging, not an electrified one. If the opening needs to be released or monitored by a card reader, ZenSupply carries devices built for that: the SDC Spectra S6136 electrified rim device with a 4 inch wide stile for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors, the SDC SureExit PSB560 pressure sense bar, the SDC MSB550 mechanical switch bar with electromagnetic lock release, the Securitron EMB electromechanical exit bar for 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Dormakaba E2103 electrified 36 inch rim device with 4908A trim.
18) I want a rim device with hex key dogging like the Hager 4701 but the opening is 33 inches. What are my options?
The Hager 4701 uses hex key dogging and is factory cut for 36 inch doors. At 33 inches, Design Hardware offers two rim devices with hex key dogging: the 2000R Series standard duty wide stile device and the 1000R Series heavy duty device. Both match the Hager on dogging method while sizing to the shorter leaf.
19) The Hager 4701 accepts a rim cylinder. Which comparable devices accept trim or come as exit only?
The Hager 4701 uses a rim cylinder and keyway with surface mounted escutcheon trim. Among the cross-brand set, the Corbin Russwin ED5200 and Corbin Russwin ED4200 are both listed as exit only and accepting trim, and the Sargent 8504 is a narrow stile rim device in night latch function, which is the function that gives outside key retraction. Devices that are exit only with no trim option include the Corbin Russwin ED2200, the Marks USA M9900 at 36 inches, and the Orca OED55 at 36 inches.
20) Is the BEST Precision 2101 a drop-in alternative to the Hager 4701 on a 36 inch wide stile door?
The BEST Precision 2101 is a 36 inch wide stile rim exit device in the 2100 Series, non fire rated, for non-wood doors, which lines up with the Hager 4701 on width, stile type, and fire rating. The Hager 4701 carries a Grade 1 rating under ANSI A156.3-2014 and hex key dogging; confirm the dogging and grade requirement on the drawing before treating the two as interchangeable.
21) If I want one non-handed rim device I can stock across several openings, what are the options alongside the Hager 4701?
The Hager 4701 is non-handed. For the same stocking advantage in other lines, the BEST Precision 5101 is a rim exit device with a non-handed universal design, the BEST 2401 is a non-handed narrow stile rim device in exit only function, the CRL Jackson 1295 Series is a non-handed push pad rim panic device in wide stile for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Sargent 3828 is a Grade 1 reversible standard push bar rim device for 48 inch doors.
22) What finishes does the Hager 4701 SVR come in, and do they all cover both opening heights?
Five finishes: 605 bright brass, 630 satin stainless, ALM aluminum, black, and dark bronze. All five are offered in both the 36 x 84 and the 36 x 96 configuration, so matching a finish across a building's short and tall openings is not a problem. 630 satin stainless is the usual pick when the rest of the commercial hardware on the job is 630.
