Kawneer KW133480EL-29 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Kawneer KW133480EL-29 exit device fit a door other than 36 inches wide?
No. The KW133480EL-29 is sized for 36 inch doors. Rim exit devices are built to a specific door width so the push rail and latch case land correctly, so a narrower or wider leaf needs the matching size instead of this one.
2) What does electric latch retraction mean on the Kawneer El Falcon 1790 rim device?
Electric latch retraction pulls the latch back electrically so the door can be released remotely or by an access control system, instead of requiring someone to push the rail. That is the whole point of the EL version of the 1790 rim device: it ties the egress hardware into card readers, buzzers, or automatic operators while the push rail still gives free mechanical egress from the inside.
3) Is this a genuine Kawneer part or an aftermarket substitute for an El Falcon 1790?
It is a genuine Kawneer service part, carried as an OEM replacement component for El Falcon 1790 rim exit device assemblies. If you are servicing a Kawneer storefront or entrance that already has the 1790 EL device, this is the factory part rather than a generic equivalent.
4) What finish is the KW133480EL-29 and will it match other black storefront hardware?
Black. It is the same dark finish commonly specified on aluminum storefront entrances, so it reads consistently alongside black pulls, closers, and frames on the rest of the openings.
5) Is a rim exit device the right choice for my opening, or do I need vertical rods?
A rim device like the El Falcon 1790 latches into a strike on the frame at the lock stile, which suits a single door or a pair with a mullion. If you have a pair of doors with no mullion and need the inactive leaf to latch top and bottom, a surface vertical rod device is the correct type instead, not a rim device.
6) Does the Kawneer 1790 EL device need a power supply to work?
Yes, electric latch retraction is powered hardware, so the latch retraction function only works when it is wired to power and to whatever release device or access control you are using. Mechanically, pushing the rail still releases the door. Plan on running power to the door and coordinating the transfer hinge or power transfer and the release control as part of the install; those are separate items from the device itself.
7) Can I use this device on a residential door?
It is a commercial-only device. The 1790 EL rim exit is built for commercial and institutional openings such as offices, schools, healthcare, government buildings, retail, warehouses, and multi-tenant residential common entrances, not for individual dwelling doors.
