Hager 4701 RIM 36 BLK – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is a rim exit device the right choice, or do I need vertical rod?
A rim device like the Hager 4701 latches into a strike on the frame, which makes it the straightforward pick for a single door in a frame, or for one leaf of a pair with a mullion between them. On a pair with no mullion there is no frame stop to catch a rim latch, and you need surface vertical rod hardware that latches at the head and the sill instead. The 4700 Series surface vertical rod versions come standard for 84 inch (2134 mm) openings and can be ordered for 96 inch (2438 mm), with extension rods up to 120 inch (3048 mm).
2) Does the Hager 4701 meet ANSI Grade 1 and ADA for a school or hospital spec?
It is BHMA certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3-2014 Grade 1 and compliant with ANSI A117.1 for ADA. It is also UL10C positive pressure rated and UL10B neutral pressure rated, and it meets ANSI A250.13 for severe windstorm resistant components. Note the Grade 1 certification sits on a standard duty commercial device, so for very high traffic openings an extra heavy duty rim device such as the Detex 10 Advantex Series 36 inch is the heavier option.
3) What comes in the box with the Hager 4701, and what do I still need to buy?
Thru-bolts, wood screws and machine screws are all in the package, along with slotted strikes that let you shift the strike to line up with the latch during install. What is not included is the cylinder. The 4701 takes a rim cylinder, so order that separately keyed to your system. If you want outside trim you order that too; the 4700 escutcheon trim is surface mounted with the locking mechanism inside the escutcheon, which means fewer holes in the door than a through-bored trim.
4) Can I put the Hager 4701 on a wood door, or do I need a different rim device?
The Hager 4701 is specified for metal doors, not wood. For a wood leaf, the Adams Rite 8700, a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device at 30 inches, is listed as wood door compatible, as is the Adams Rite 3700 in its fire rated Grade 1 form. Both carry Grade 1 like the 4701, so the security level is the same class; the difference is the door substrate they are prepared for.
5) The 4701 is not fire rated - what rim exit device should I use on a fire rated opening instead?
The Hager 4701 carries no fire rating, so a labeled opening needs a device that does. Fire rated rim options in the same 36 inch class include the Orca Hardware OED85, a 36 inch fire rated rim exit device, and the Marks USA M9900F, a fire rated 36 inch rim device with a panic protector end cap. The Dexter ED1000-R-F is a Grade 1 fire rated rim device, and the Adams Rite 3700 is a Grade 1 fire rated narrow stile rim device at 30 inches for narrow stile aluminum or wood doors. Match the device length to the door leaf as you would with the 4701.
6) My door is a narrow stile aluminum storefront - is the Hager 4701 the right rim device?
The Hager 4701 is a standard duty commercial rim device cut for 36 inch doors, and its escutcheon trim is surface mounted; narrow stile aluminum openings are typically served by devices built for that stile. Narrow stile rim devices include the Adams Rite 8800 at 30 inches, rated Grade 1 for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, the Corbin Russwin ED4200, a Grade 1 36 inch narrow stile rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the TownSteel ED3700, a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device at 36 inches. The Falcon 19-R is a Grade 1 exit only narrow stile device at 36 inches for 1-3/4 inch doors.
7) Is an electrified exit bar or switch bar a substitute for the Hager 4701?
No. The Hager 4701 is a mechanical rim exit device with a rim cylinder prep and hex key dogging. The SDC MSB550 is a mechanical switch bar that releases an electromagnetic lock, and the SDC PSB560 SureExit is a pressure sense bar - both are 36 inch bars intended to signal a separate locking device rather than latch the door themselves. The Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar. If the requirement is a latching rim device on the door, choose a mechanical rim device such as the SDC S6136 Spectra, a 36 inch electrified architectural rim exit device with a 4 inch wide stile, or one of the mechanical Grade 1 rim devices.
8) What is the closest equivalent to the Hager 4701 rim exit device from another manufacturer?
The Hager 4701 is a Grade 1 rim exit device for 36 inch doors, non fire rated, with hex key dogging. The Design Hardware 2000R is the nearest match in character: a standard duty rim device with hex key dogging, non fire rated, for metal doors. If the 33 inch cut of the 2000R does not suit the opening, the TownSteel ED1100 is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device in a 36 inch length, also non fire rated, and the Dexter ED1000 comes in a 3 foot Grade 1 non fire rated rim version. All three are metal door devices, as the 4701 is.
9) I need a rim exit device for a 48 inch door instead of 36 inch - what are my options?
The Hager 4701 in question is cut for 36 inch doors; the 4700 series device is also cut for 48 inch (1219 mm) doors, with recommended overall length equal to door width minus four inches. Across other manufacturers, 48 inch rim devices include the Cal-Royal 5500 heavy duty push bar device, the Corbin Russwin ED3200, a Grade 1 wide stile crossbar rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Marks USA M9900F in a 48 inch fire rated version, and the Dexter ED1000 in a 4 foot Grade 1 length. Sargent 2828 and 3828 are Grade 1 reversible wide stile devices for 48 inch minimum door width.
10) Does the Hager 4701 have to be handed when I order it?
No handing to specify. The 4701 rim device is non-handed, so one part number covers a left or right hand opening. That is why it works well as a stocked spare across a building with mixed handing.
11) Can I hold the door unlatched during business hours with the Hager 4701?
Yes, using hex key dogging. Insert the hex wrench and the pushpad stays depressed, so the latch is held retracted and the door pushes free until you undog it. Handy for a retail or school entrance that needs to be open during the day and secure after. Hex key dogging is only permitted because the 4701 is not a fire rated device.
12) Will the Hager 4701 latch reliably if my frame strike is slightly out of alignment?
The latch is a dead locking stainless steel Pullman type, and the device ships with slotted strikes so the installer can shift the strike to meet the latch rather than re-drilling the frame. Dead locking means the latch resists being loided back once it is engaged against the strike.
13) How does the Hager 4701 compare to other Grade 1 rim exit devices for a 36 inch door?
The 4701 is the economy positioned Grade 1 option, standard duty rather than heavy duty, with hex key dogging and surface mounted escutcheon trim. Among the 36 inch Grade 1 rim devices we carry, the Corbin Russwin ED2200 and ED5200 are wide stile Grade 1 for 1-3/4 inch doors, the TownSteel ED9700 is heavy duty wide stile, and the Detex 10 Advantex is extra heavy duty. Pick on duty level: the 4701 suits light commercial traffic, the Detex and TownSteel suit doors that get hammered all day.
14) The 4701 is standard duty - what rim exit device holds up on a high traffic entrance?
The Hager 4701 is built for standard duty commercial service. Where the opening sees heavier cycling, the Detex 10 Advantex is an extra heavy duty Grade 1 wide stile rim device in a 36 inch length, and the Detex 40 Advantex is an extra heavy duty Grade 1 narrow stile rim device. Heavy duty Grade 1 alternatives at 36 inches include the TownSteel ED9700 wide stile and the Dormakaba QED200. All of these are metal door devices, as the 4701 is.
15) What is the difference between the Hager 4701 and a Grade 2 rim exit device like the Cal-Royal 5000?
The Hager 4701 is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3-2014 Grade 1. The Cal-Royal 5000 is a 36 inch wide rim exit device with a touch bar on a Grade 2 chassis, and the Cal-Royal 5500 at 48 inches is likewise Grade 2. For a facility standardizing on Grade 1 rim hardware, the 4701 meets that line, as do the TownSteel ED1100, Corbin Russwin ED2200 and Dormakaba 8300, all Grade 1 wide stile rim devices.
16) I want a crossbar or paddle style panic device rather than a push pad - what should I look at instead of the 4701?
The Hager 4701 uses a push style exit device with surface mounted escutcheon trim. If the specification calls for a crossbar, the CRL Jackson 1095 is a 48 inch crossbar rim panic device in wide stile, exit only, and the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 48 inch wide stile crossbar rim device. For a paddle, the CRL Jackson 1095P is a paddle rim panic device, wide stile and exit only. All three are non fire rated, as the 4701 is.
17) Does a dummy exit device work in place of the Hager 4701 on an inactive leaf?
No. The Hager 4701 is a functioning Grade 1 panic device with dead locking stainless steel Pullman latchbolts. On an inactive leaf where only the appearance needs to match, the Detex Advantex 00 Series is a Grade 1 wide stile dummy exit device. Pair it with a working device on the active leaf, such as the Detex 10 Advantex 36 inch wide stile Grade 1 device, so the two leaves read the same.
18) The 4701 takes a rim cylinder - which other rim devices give me a night latch or trim function?
The Hager 4701 is prepped for a rim cylinder and its escutcheon trim is surface mounted with the locking mechanism built inside. If the function you need is night latch specifically, the Sargent 8504 is a Grade 1 night latch function narrow stile rim device. The Detex V4003A/03AN is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device supplied with night latch trim. Where trim is added later, the Corbin Russwin ED4200 and ED5200 are Grade 1 devices listed as exit only, accepts trim.
19) I have Hager 4701 devices on most doors but one opening needs electrified access control - what matches?
The Hager 4701 is a mechanical Grade 1 rim device with hex key dogging. For an opening that needs electrified control alongside it, the Dormakaba E2103 is a 36 inch electrified rim exit device with 4908A trim in classroom function, and the SDC S6136 Spectra is a 36 inch electrified architectural rim device on a 4 inch wide stile for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. Both are 36 inch devices, so the bar length matches what is already on the other leaves.
20) What finishes does the Hager 4701 exit device come in?
Five: 605 bright brass, 630 satin stainless steel, ALM aluminum, black, and dark bronze. For a building where the exits should disappear into a dark storefront, black or dark bronze match; 630 satin stainless is the one that blends with most existing commercial hardware and hides wear on a high traffic push side.
21) What is the Hager 4701 made of, and will it hold up in a coastal or exterior opening?
Construction is zinc, stainless steel, brass and bronze, with the Pullman latchbolt in stainless. It also meets ANSI A250.13 for severe windstorm resistant components, which matters on exterior openings in high wind regions. It is a standard duty commercial device, so for a heavily abused exterior door the heavy duty rim devices we carry, like the TownSteel ED1100 36 inch or the Design Hardware 1000R, are the step up.
