Kawneer KW133623-17 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What sizes does the Kawneer KW133623-17 exit device replacement part come in?
Two device sizes are offered on the KW133623-17: 42 inch and 48 inch. Match the size to the door width your existing 1686 concealed exit device was built for, since the part has to span the same door as the device it is servicing.
2) Will the Kawneer KW133623-17 work on a right-hand door?
No. The KW133623-17 is built for Left-Hand / Right-Hand Reverse (LH/RHR) openings only. Handing on an exit device is read from the secure side, so an RH or LHR opening needs the opposite-handed service part. Confirm the handing of the door before ordering, because a handed concealed device part will not flip in the field.
3) Does this Kawneer part fit any concealed exit device, or only the 1686?
Only the Kawneer 1686 Concealed Exit Device. The KW133623-17 is an OEM Kawneer service part engineered for that platform. It is not a universal concealed vertical rod part and should not be used to service another manufacturer's device or another Kawneer series.
4) Is the KW133623-17 a genuine Kawneer part or an aftermarket copy?
It is a genuine Kawneer service part, carried under Kawneer Service Parts. For a concealed device buried in an aluminum stile, that matters: the mounting and rod geometry has to match the original assembly exactly, and an aftermarket substitute rarely does.
5) What finish is the Kawneer 1686 replacement part, and will it match my existing doors?
Clear Aluminum, factory applied. That is the standard anodized look on most Kawneer aluminum entrance systems, so it blends with clear anodized storefront and matching 1686 hardware. If your building is dark bronze or black anodized, this one will stand out.
6) I manage a building with Kawneer 1686 devices on several doors. Can I stock one part for all of them?
Not with a single part number. The KW133623-17 covers LH/RHR openings in one of two device sizes, 42 inch or 48 inch. A mixed set of openings means you need the matching handed part and the correct size for each door. Survey the doors, record handing and device size, then order per opening.
7) Is this Kawneer exit device part suitable for a high-traffic commercial entrance?
Yes, it is a commercial-grade item, not a residential part. Kawneer 1686 concealed devices are typically found on aluminum storefront and institutional entrances, and this service part is built to keep those openings operating after a failure.
