Kawneer KW133621CD-17 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Kawneer 1686 exit device work on a 36 inch wide aluminum storefront door?
That is exactly what the KW133621CD-17 is sized for. It is the Kawneer 1686 concealed exit device built for a 36 inch door width, and the clear aluminum finish is meant to match aluminum storefront and curtainwall door systems. If your leaf is a different width, you need the 1686 in that width instead, not this one.
2) What handing is the KW133621CD-17 Kawneer 1686 device, and can it be reversed in the field?
It is configured for Left-Hand or Right Hand Reverse openings. Handing is built in on this part, so it is not a field-reversible device. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your right and the door pulls toward you, that is Right Hand Reverse; hinges left and the door pushes away is Left Hand. For the opposite hand you need the Right-Hand/Left Hand Reverse version of the 1686.
3) What does cylinder dogging do on this Kawneer exit device, and do I need to buy the cylinder separately?
Cylinder dogging lets you key the pushbar down so the latch stays retracted and the door push-pulls freely during business hours, then key it back for latching after hours. The KW133621CD-17 is the exit device with the cylinder dogging mechanism; the dogging key cylinder itself is a separate keyed item, so order the cylinder to match the keyway you already use in the building.
4) Is this a genuine Kawneer part or an aftermarket exit device?
Genuine Kawneer service part, listed under Kawneer Service Parts as a replacement part for 1686 series systems. For a glass front installer or locksmith servicing an existing Kawneer storefront, that matters: the OEM device drops into the existing door prep and rod geometry rather than requiring you to re-machine the stile.
5) Concealed vertical rod versus a surface mounted rim exit device on an aluminum door, which should I use?
The 1686 is a concealed device, so the mechanism sits inside the door and only the pushbar shows. That is the right choice when you are matching an existing Kawneer concealed opening or you want the clean storefront look, because the door is already machined for it. A surface applied rim device is the easier retrofit on a door with no concealed prep, but it will read as added-on hardware and will not match adjacent Kawneer leaves. On an existing Kawneer door that had a concealed device, stay concealed.
6) I need to order a replacement for a Kawneer concealed exit device, what part number do I ask for?
The full designation is Kawneer KW133621CD-17, the 1686 concealed exit device in 36 inch width with cylinder dogging, clear aluminum, Left-Hand/Right Hand Reverse. Four things identify it: series, width, dogging type, and handing. Confirm the handing off the door and the leaf width before you order, since both are fixed on the part.
7) Is the Kawneer 1686 suitable for a high traffic school or healthcare entrance?
It is classified as a commercial product and is used on office, education, healthcare, retail, government and multi-tenant openings where egress hardware is being replaced or serviced. For a property manager standardizing a building, the clear aluminum finish keeps replaced doors consistent with the rest of the storefront line.
