Hager 4701 RIM 48 ALM – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is an equivalent 48 inch rim exit device if the opening is fire rated?
The Hager 4701 is not fire rated, so it cannot go on a fire door. For a 48 inch fire rated rim device, the Marks USA M9900F 48 inch is fire rated and exit only. The Dexter ED1000-R-F-EO is also a Grade 1 fire rated rim exit device, and the Orca OED85 is a 36 inch fire rated rim device if the leaf is narrower.
2) What should I use instead of the Hager 4701 on a narrow stile aluminum storefront?
The Hager 4701 is built for standard stile doors. For narrow stile openings, the Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device that accepts trim, the Falcon 19-R exit only and Falcon 1790EO are Grade 1 narrow stile devices at 1-3/4 inch door thickness, and the TownSteel ED3700 and ED8900 are Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim devices.
3) Can I hold the Hager 4701 exit device unlocked during business hours?
Yes. The 4701 comes with hex key dogging, so an authorized person depresses the pushbar and locks it down with the hex key to leave the latch retracted for free push-pull traffic. Fire rated devices can't be dogged mechanically, which is part of why dogging is available here.
4) What kind of cylinder does the Hager 4701 exit device take?
It takes a rim cylinder, not a mortise cylinder. If you're keying a building to one system, order the rim cylinder in your existing keyway so the exit door keys alike with the rest of the openings.
5) How does the Hager 4701 compare to other Grade 1 rim devices for a 48 inch door?
The Hager 4701 is a standard duty commercial device built to Grade 1, aimed at getting code compliance at economy pricing. Other 48 inch rim options carry different duty ratings: the Dormakaba 9300 Series is a heavy duty Grade 1 wide stile device rated for 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch doors, the Corbin Russwin ED3000 is a Grade 1 crossbar device for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Sargent 3828 is a Grade 1 reversible push bar device for 48 inch doors. Pick on duty level and trim style; all are rim devices needing a frame strike or mullion.
6) Do I have to order the Hager 4701 handed?
No. The 4701 rim device is non-handed, so one part covers left and right hand openings. That makes it easy to stock a single device for a building with mixed handing.
7) I ordered the 48 inch Hager 4701 but the door is 36 inches - what is the right part?
Recommended overall device length is door width minus four inches, so a 36 inch leaf takes a 36 inch cut device rather than the 48 inch. Comparable 36 inch Grade 1 rim devices include the Dexter ED1000-R-EO-3FT, the Corbin Russwin ED2200 wide stile exit only, and the TownSteel ED1100 wide stile heavy duty device. A 48 inch Dexter ED1000-R-EO-4FT covers the wider leaf if you have both sizes on the job.
8) Is there a Grade 2 rim exit device in a 48 inch size as an alternative to the Hager 4701?
Yes. 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 is a 48 inch heavy duty exit only rim device also listed as Grade 2. The Hager 4701 is Grade 1 under ANSI A156.3-2014, so on a job where the drawing calls out Grade 1 the Cal-Royal units will not meet the spec.
9) I need a heavier duty device than the Hager 4701 for a high traffic exit - what steps up?
The Hager 4701 is a standard duty commercial device. For heavier service, the Detex 10 Advantex is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty wide stile rim device and the Detex 40 Advantex is Grade 1 extra heavy duty in narrow stile. The TownSteel ED1100 and ED9700 are Grade 1 heavy duty wide stile rim devices, and the Design Hardware 1000R is a heavy duty rim device with hex key dogging like the 4701.
10) Does the Hager 4701 do the same job as a crossbar panic device?
Both are rim panic devices, but the touchpad style of the 4701 and a crossbar bar are different looks and different push actions. If the building is standardized on crossbars, the CRL Jackson 1095 Series 48 inch crossbar rim panic device is wide stile and exit only, and the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 48 inch crossbar rim device. Both cover the same 48 inch leaf the Hager 4701 is cut for.
11) Will an SDC pressure sense bar or switch bar substitute for the Hager 4701?
No. The Hager 4701 is a mechanical rim exit device with a rim cylinder prep and hex key dogging that latches the door on its own. The SDC PSB560 is a pressure sense bar and the SDC MSB550 is a mechanical switch bar that releases an electromagnetic lock - those signal a separate locking device rather than carrying a latchbolt. They suit access controlled or mag lock openings, not a straight mechanical panic replacement.
12) Which alternative to the Hager 4701 accepts a lever trim for outside entry?
The Hager 4701 is an exit device with surface mounted escutcheon trim and a rim cylinder prep. If you want a device catalogued as accepting trim, the Corbin Russwin ED5200 is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device listed as exit only, accepts trim, and the ED4200 offers the same in narrow stile. The Detex V4003A/03AN is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device offered with night latch trim, and the Sargent 8504 is a Grade 1 narrow design rim device in night latch function.
13) What finishes does the Hager 4701 48 inch exit device come in?
Five: 605 bright brass, 630 satin stainless steel, ALM aluminum, black, and dark bronze. For matching existing openings in a building, 630 satin stainless is the usual commercial standard and ALM matches storefront aluminum.
14) What are the latchbolt and body materials on the Hager 4701?
The latchbolt is a dead locking stainless steel Pullman type, and the device substrate spans zinc, stainless steel, brass and bronze depending on component and finish. The dead locking feature resists the latch being loided from outside once the door is closed.
15) My opening is taller than 84 inches. Does that change anything on the Hager 4700 Series?
Not for the rim 4701, since a rim device latches into the frame at the strike and door height doesn't affect it. Height only matters on the surface vertical rod models in the 4700 line, which ship standard for an 84 inch opening, can be ordered for 96 inch, and take extension rods up to 120 inch.
16) Is the Detex 00 Series a substitute for the Hager 4701 on a pair of doors?
No. The Detex Advantex 00 Series is a dummy exit device in wide stile - it gives the matching push bar appearance without a latching function. The Hager 4701 is a working Grade 1 panic device with dead locking stainless steel Pullman latchbolts. Use a dummy only on the inactive leaf where no latching is required, never as the egress device.
