Kawneer KW133480EL-17 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Kawneer KW133480EL-17 fit a door other than 36 inches wide?
No. The KW133480EL-17 is built for 36 inch door applications in the El Falcon 1790 rim exit device series. If your opening uses a different door width, you need the El Falcon 1790 service part sized for that width instead. Ordering the 36 inch part for a wider or narrower leaf leaves you with a device that will not line up with the strike or the stile.
2) Does the El Falcon 1790 electric latch retraction device work with an access control system?
Yes. The El Falcon 1790 is an electric latch retraction rim exit device, meaning the latch pulls back electrically so the door can be released remotely or on an automated schedule from an access control system. The KW133480EL-17 is the 36 inch service part for that electrified device, so it keeps that EL function intact after a repair.
3) Is the Kawneer KW133480EL-17 a genuine Kawneer part or an aftermarket copy?
It is an OEM service part supplied through the Kawneer Service Parts program, so it is made to fit the El Falcon 1790 rim exit device without modification. For a property manager or facilities crew restoring an existing Kawneer storefront opening, that matters: the part drops into the hardware already on the door rather than forcing a full device swap.
4) What finish is the Kawneer KW133480EL-17 and will it match my existing storefront doors?
Clear Aluminum, applied at the factory to match the original El Falcon 1790 device finish. On a run of aluminum storefront doors where the rest of the hardware is clear anodized, the replacement will read the same as what is already hanging. If your building standardized on a dark bronze or painted finish, this one will not blend.
5) Can I use the KW133480EL-17 on a pair of doors or a non-Kawneer exit device?
It is a rim exit device part specific to the Kawneer El Falcon 1790 series. A rim device latches into a strike on the frame or, on a pair, on a mullion, so it does not secure a pair without one. It is not a substitution part for another manufacturer's exit device, and it will not serve as a vertical rod component.
6) Is this Kawneer exit device part rated for commercial traffic?
Commercial is the intended application. The El Falcon 1790 series is used in office buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, retail, industrial and warehouse space, multi-tenant residential and government buildings, which is the traffic level this service part is built for.
