Falcon MESC600DT-26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Falcon MESC600DT dummy escutcheon work on my exit device, or is it only for certain models?
The MESC600DT is exterior trim built for Falcon M9900 Series rim and vertical rod exit devices. It mounts thru-bolt through the door and pairs with the device chassis on the push side. It isn't a universal trim plate, so if the device on your opening is another series or another brand, this isn't the part.
2) Does the MESC600DT lever actually retract the latch, or is it fixed?
Fixed. It's a dummy function, non-keyed trim, so the lever is a pull only and does not retract the exit device latch. Anyone on the outside needs the door pulled open by someone inside or by another means. If you want the outside lever to operate the device, you need a keyed or night-latch trim instead.
3) Will this trim fit a narrow stile aluminum door?
Only if the stile is at least 3-1/2 inches. The MESC600DT escutcheon measures 10 inches by 5 inches overall and needs a minimum 3-1/2 inch stile, on doors up to 1-3/4 inches thick. Typical narrow stile storefront doors run under that, so measure the lock stile before ordering.
4) Can I use this escutcheon on a fire rated stairwell door?
Yes. The MESC600DT is UL listed with a 3-hour fire rating and carries an ANSI Grade 1 rating, so it suits fire-rated openings in schools, hospitals and commercial stairwells when used with the M9900 device it's made for.
5) I need a dummy lever but I don't have an exit device on the door. What should I use instead?
The MESC600DT only works as trim on a Falcon M9900 exit device, so on a plain door it's the wrong part. For a standalone dummy lever on a mortise-prepped door, the Schlage L0170 half dummy trim is a Grade 1 non-keyed option for 1-3/4 inch doors. On residential or decorative openings, Emtek's dummy mortise entrance sets such as the 3102 Memphis or 3104 Hamilton cover the same function with a different look.
6) I want outside access on my exit device door, not a fixed lever. Is this the right trim?
No. Dummy trim like the MESC600DT gives a pull handle and nothing more, which is right for doors that are egress-only or that get unlocked from inside. If staff or tenants need to get in from the outside, you want a keyed lever trim for the M9900, or a different lock type altogether, for example a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock such as the Accentra 8805FL or Cal-Royal NM8080.
7) I need the outside lever on this exit device door to actually retract the latch, not just be a pull. What should I order instead of the MESC600DT?
The MESC600DT is a dummy, so its lever is fixed and does nothing but give a hand-hold. If the outside lever has to operate the door, you need a keyed or latching lockset rather than dummy trim. The Cal-Royal NM8050 is a Grade 1 office/entrance mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal NM8080 is the Grade 1 storeroom version with an interchangeable core option. Both are complete locksets, so the door prep is a mortise pocket rather than exit device trim mounting.
8) Do I need to specify left or right hand for this Falcon escutcheon trim?
No handing to specify. The MESC600DT is non-handed and field reversible, so one part covers both swings. That's useful for a property manager or MRO stockroom keeping a single spare on the shelf for several openings.
9) Does the MESC600DT come with the mounting hardware or do I have to order that separately?
The mounting hardware is included. It's a thru-bolt installation, and Falcon supplies the fasteners plus templates for marking the hole locations, so a retrofit onto a prepped door goes in without sourcing extra fastener kits. What you do supply is the exit device itself, this is trim only.
10) Is this lever trim ADA compliant for a public building?
Yes, the MESC600DT uses a lever rather than a knob and meets ADA requirements for accessible door hardware in commercial installations. Keep in mind the lever is a dummy pull, so the accessible egress function comes from the exit device push bar on the inside.
11) Is the Schlage PM010 a substitute for the Falcon MESC600DT on a corridor door?
They are not interchangeable. The Schlage PM010 is a Grade 1 non-keyed passage latch mortise lock for 1-3/4 inch doors, meaning its lever retracts a latch and the door latches shut. The Falcon MESC600DT is a dummy escutcheon lever trim for M9900 Series rim and vertical rod exit devices, with no latch of its own, so the exit device holds the door. Choose the PM010 for a latching passage opening and the MESC600DT only where an M9900 device is already doing the latching.
12) We are specifying decorative dummy mortise trim for interior wood doors. Do the Emtek dummy locksets do the same job as the Falcon MESC600DT?
They fill different openings. The Emtek 3102 Memphis, 3104 Hamilton, 3106 Manhattan and 3019 Brisbane are all dummy-function mortise entrance locksets in decorative series for residential-style interior and entry doors. The Falcon MESC600DT is a commercial dummy escutcheon lever trim, ANSI Grade 1, UL listed with a 3-hour fire rating, sized for doors up to 1-3/4 inch with a 3-1/2 inch minimum stile and mounted thru-bolt to an M9900 Series exit device. For a fire-rated exit device opening, the Emtek trims do not apply; for a decorative interior door with no exit device, they do.
13) Our opening needs credentialed access on the outside instead of a fixed dummy lever. What replaces the MESC600DT?
The MESC600DT is a non-electronic dummy trim, so it offers no access control at all. For a credentialed outside trim you move to an electronic mortise lockset: the TownSteel FME-2000 is a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom mortise lockset with RFID for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Schlage LEMD-GRW is a Grade 1 ENGAGE Series wireless mortise lock with a 125kHz proximity reader and a 3-hour fire rating. Both carry their own latching and power requirements, unlike the Falcon, which simply dresses an M9900 device.
14) Will the Falcon MESC600DT work on a 1-7/8 inch thick door, and what fits if it will not?
No. The MESC600DT accommodates doors up to 1-3/4 inch thick with a minimum 3-1/2 inch stile. For thicker doors, the Hager 3810E is a 3800 Series Grade 1 passage mortise lock with escutcheon and 2-3/4 inch backset rated for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/2 inch doors, and the Alarm Lock DL3500CR Grade 1 classroom electronic mortise lock covers 1-5/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch. Both are full locksets rather than exit device trim, so confirm the opening does not require an M9900 device before switching.
15) For a behavioral health or patient room door, is the MESC600DT an acceptable lever trim?
The MESC600DT is a standard commercial lever escutcheon and carries no anti-ligature construction. For ligature-resistant openings, the TownSteel MRX-L-01 is a Grade 1 heavy duty stainless steel anti-ligature lever mortise lockset in passage function for 1-3/4 inch doors, the MRX-A-01 is the arch trim passage version, and the Marks USA 5PDN is a Grade 1 hospital passage mortise push/pull paddleset described as ligature resistant and ADA compliant in satin stainless steel. All three are complete locksets rather than exit device trim.
16) We standardize on Grade 1 non-keyed lever hardware across a campus. How does the MESC600DT line up with the other Grade 1 non-keyed options?
The Falcon MESC600DT is ANSI Grade 1, non-keyed, lever handle, field reversible, UL listed with a 3-hour fire rating, and it serves openings fitted with M9900 Series rim or vertical rod exit devices. On openings without an exit device, the matching Grade 1 non-keyed choices are the Schlage PM010 passage latch mortise lock and the Schlage L0170 half dummy mortise lever, both listed for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Schlage PC10 Grade 1 passage cylindrical lock with rose where the door is bored rather than mortised. That gives one lever family across exit device, mortised and bored openings.
17) What finish does the Falcon MESC600DT dummy escutcheon come in?
Satin chrome, US26D. That's the standard commercial finish and it will read as a match alongside most 626 satin chrome lever trim and exit devices already hung in an office or school building.
18) Is the Falcon MESC600DT wired or does it need power?
No power, no wiring. It's purely mechanical trim with no electronic components, so there's no transfer hinge, power supply or door loop to plan for. If your spec calls for electrified access control on that opening, look at an electrified mortise lock like the BEST 45HW, which runs on 12V or 24V.
19) Is this trim heavy duty enough for a high traffic entrance?
The MESC600DT is ANSI Grade 1 rated and specified for commercial use, which is the top tier for door hardware and appropriate for high traffic openings in offices, schools, healthcare and retail. Because the lever is a dummy and doesn't drive a latch, there's no mechanism to wear out, only the mounting.
20) Is there a simpler non-lever alternative to the Falcon MESC600DT for a pull-only door?
If the opening only needs something to grab and a lever is not required, the Sargent 130KB standard duty mortise thumbturn from the 8200 Series and the 130W mortise thumbturn with round backplate from the 7800 Series are minimal non-keyed mortise-side pieces. They are far smaller than the Falcon's 10 inch by 5 inch lever escutcheon and do not provide an ADA lever, which the MESC600DT does. Use the Falcon where accessible lever operation on an M9900 exit device is required.
