Hager 4701 SVR 48X84 DBZ – Frequently Asked Questions

1) My opening is 8 feet tall. Do I need a special order Hager 4701 vertical rod device?
Yes, specify the taller size. The 4701 SVR ships standard for an 84 inch (2134 mm) opening, and a 96 inch (2438 mm) version is a separate orderable size. Both the 48 x 84 and 48 x 96 configurations are offered. For openings above 96 inches, extension rods cover up to 120 inches (3048 mm) and are ordered separately.
2) Can I use a surface vertical rod device on a pair of doors with no center mullion?
That is exactly what a surface vertical rod device is for. The 4701 SVR latches at the head and at the threshold with its own top and bottom latchbolts rather than into a strike on the frame jamb, so a pair of doors can be secured without a removable mullion between them. If you already have a mullion in the opening, a straight rim device latching into a mullion strike is the simpler choice and leaves the floor clear.
3) Is the Hager 4701 Grade 1, and what standard is it certified to?
Grade 1, BHMA certified to ANSI A156.3-2014, which is the exit device standard. It is classed as standard duty commercial hardware, so it suits offices, schools, retail and multi-tenant residential exits where the traffic is steady rather than punishing. For a facility standardizing on one device across many openings, the Grade 1 certification plus ANSI A117.1 accessibility compliance is usually what the spec calls for.
4) What is the closest wide stile Grade 1 alternative to the Hager 4701 for a 48 inch door?
For a 48 inch opening with a wide stile pushpad, the Dormakaba 9300A is a Grade 1 heavy duty wide stile rim panic device sized for 48 inch doors with a 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range, and the Sargent 2828 is a Grade 1 reversible wide stile rim device for a 48 inch minimum door width. The Hager 4701 SVR is Grade 1 to ANSI A156.3-2014 with hex key dogging, cut for a 48 inch wide door. Note the Hager 4701 SVR is a surface vertical rod device, so it latches top and bottom rather than into the frame at the strike.
5) The Hager 4701 is wide stile - what rim device works on a narrow stile aluminum storefront door?
Narrow stile openings need a device built for the smaller rail. The Adams Rite 8800 Series is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device with a 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range, the Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors that accepts trim, and the Falcon 19-R is a Grade 1 narrow stile exit only device for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Hager 4701 SVR uses a wide stile pushpad and is cut for 48 inch wide doors.
6) Can I hold the door in a push-open state during business hours with the Hager 4701?
Yes. The 4701 uses hex key dogging, so with the supplied Allen wrench you depress the pushpad and dog it down to leave the latch retracted for daytime free passage, then undog it at close. Hex dogging is mechanical, so no power or cylinder is involved.
7) What cylinder do I need to key the Hager 4701 exit device from the outside?
It takes a rim cylinder, not a mortise cylinder. Order the rim cylinder in the keyway your building is keyed to along with whichever outside trim you are using; the exit device itself does not ship with a cylinder.
8) What mounting hardware comes with the Hager 4700 Series exit device?
Thru-bolts come in every 4700 package, along with wood screws and machine screws, so the device covers both hollow metal and wood door mounting without a separate fastener order. Strikes are slotted, which lets you shift them to line the latch up instead of re-drilling. The escutcheon trim is surface mounted with the locking mechanism inside it, so the door prep is fewer holes than a device requiring a through-door lock case.
9) Is the Hager 4701 heavy duty enough for a high traffic exit, or should I step up?
It is classed standard duty commercial, Grade 1, and Hager positions the 4700 as security and performance at economy pricing. That is fine for an office, retail or multi-tenant exit. If the opening is a school gym, stadium or transit door taking constant abuse, step to an extra heavy duty device: the Detex Advantex 10 Series is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty wide stile rim device, and the Detex 40 Advantex is the extra heavy duty narrow stile equivalent.
10) Is a Grade 2 rim device like the Cal-Royal 5500 an acceptable swap for the Hager 4701?
They are not the same certification level. The Cal-Royal 5500 is a 48 inch wide rim exit device with a push bar carrying a Grade 2 chassis, and the Cal-Royal A9820 48 inch exit only device is also listed Grade 2. The Hager 4701 SVR is Grade 1 to ANSI A156.3-2014 and ADA compliant. If a drawing or facility standard calls for ANSI Grade 1, a Grade 2 chassis will not satisfy it.
11) Which alternatives to the Hager 4701 also have hex key dogging?
Hex key dogging appears on the Design Hardware 1000R heavy duty rim device and the Design Hardware 2000R standard duty wide stile rim device, both 33 inch, and on the Stanley Security QED200 Series Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim device. The Hager 4701 SVR is also supplied with hex key dogging and is a standard duty commercial device. Dogging on a labeled fire door is not permitted, so confirm the opening before specifying any dogged device.
12) What is a heavier duty alternative if the Hager 4701 standard duty rating is not enough for a high traffic entrance?
The Hager 4701 SVR is classified for standard duty commercial use. For heavier cycle counts, the Detex 10 Advantex Series 36 inch wide stile device is rated extra heavy duty and Grade 1, the Detex 40 Advantex narrow stile is extra heavy duty Grade 1, and the TownSteel ED1100 36 inch wide stile and ED9700 36 inch wide stile are Grade 1 heavy duty. Those peers are listed at 36 inch widths, so verify the door width for your opening.
13) Will the SDC S6136 or Securitron EMB work as a substitute for the Hager 4701?
They solve a different problem. The SDC S6136 Spectra is a 36 inch electrified architectural rim exit device with a 4 inch wide stile and a 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch door thickness range, and the Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar listed at 2-1/4 inch door thickness. The SDC MSB550 and PSB560 are switch bars and pressure sense bars rather than latching exit devices. The Hager 4701 SVR is a purely mechanical surface vertical rod device with dead locking stainless steel Pullman latchbolts and hex key dogging, so it needs no power or access control tie-in.
14) What should I order instead of the Hager 4701 if the door is 36 inches wide?
The Hager 4700 Series is cut for both 36 inch and 48 inch wide doors, so the 36 inch version of the same 4701 SVR model is the direct answer. If you are cross shopping, 36 inch Grade 1 wide stile rim devices include the Corbin Russwin ED2200 exit only, the Corbin Russwin ED5200 for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the TownSteel ED9700, though those latch into the frame rather than using surface vertical rods.
15) What finishes does the Hager 4701 48 inch exit device come in?
Four: 605 bright brass, 630 satin stainless steel, ALM aluminum, and dark bronze. All four are offered in both the 48 x 84 and 48 x 96 sizes. For matching existing openings, 630 satin stainless and dark bronze are the two that most commonly line up with hardware already installed in commercial buildings.
16) What are the latchbolts on the Hager 4700 Series made of?
Dead locking stainless steel Pullman type latchbolts. Dead locking means the latch resists being pushed back once seated, which matters on an exterior exit where someone could otherwise loid it. Body materials across the series run zinc, stainless steel, brass and bronze depending on finish.
