Kawneer KW133480EL-40 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Kawneer KW133480EL-40 exit device fit a door other than 36 inches wide?
No. The KW133480EL-40 is built for 36 inch door applications only within the El Falcon 1790 rim exit platform. If your opening uses a different door width, you need the El Falcon 1790 device sized for that width instead, not this one cut down.
2) Is this a rim device or a vertical rod device for a pair of doors?
Rim mounted. The El Falcon 1790 KW133480EL-40 latches to a strike on the frame, so it suits single door commercial openings. A pair of doors without a mullion needs vertical rod hardware instead, and a pair with a removable mullion would take a rim device on each leaf.
3) What does the EL in the Kawneer KW133480EL-40 actually do on an access controlled door?
EL is electric latch retraction. Energizing the device pulls the latch back and holds it retracted, so the door can be released remotely or pushed open freely by a card reader, automatic operator, or front desk button. Mechanical push bar egress from the inside is unaffected. It is the part you specify when the opening has to unlock electrically rather than be dogged by hand.
4) I am replacing a failed El Falcon 1790 exit device on a 36 inch storefront door. Is this the right part?
Yes, provided the existing device is an El Falcon 1790 rim exit with electric latch retraction on a 36 inch leaf. The KW133480EL-40 is sold as a replacement part to restore or extend the life of that series, so it goes back into the same prep and strike location. If the door currently has a mechanical only 1790 with no EL wiring, you also need power and a way to route it through the frame before this device will function.
5) Is the KW133480EL-40 an aftermarket part or genuine Kawneer?
Genuine Kawneer service part, catalogued under Kawneer Service Parts. That matters on El Falcon 1790 openings because the device has to line up with the existing rim strike location and door prep already in the storefront leaf.
6) Can I use this Kawneer electric latch retraction device on a residential door?
It is a commercial grade product and is classified for commercial use. The El Falcon 1790 rim exit hardware belongs on storefront and commercial egress openings in offices, schools, healthcare, retail, and government buildings, not on residential entries.
7) What finish is the Kawneer KW133480EL-40 and will it match my other storefront hardware?
Dark Bronze, applied at the factory. It is the standard architectural bronze tone used across commercial storefront entrances, so it reads consistent with dark bronze anodized frames and pulls already on the building.
