SDC S6101FU42 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the SDC S61 42-inch rim exit device fit a 2 inch thick door?
Yes. The Spectra S6000 rim device covers a door thickness range of 1-3/4 inches to 2 inches, so it handles both standard 1-3/4 inch commercial doors and the thicker 2 inch leaves you see on some heavier openings. Below 1-3/4 inches it is out of range.
2) Is the SDC S61 exit device approved for a fire rated door opening?
It is. The S61 is fire rated and carries UL 10C Positive Pressure Fire Test certification along with UL 305 Panic Hardware listing and ANSI/BHMA A156.3 Grade 1 compliance. Note that fire rated exit devices do not get mechanically dogged down, which is why the electrified dogging options on this device matter on a fire opening.
3) Does the 42 inch S6000 device need a 42 inch door, and how much stile does it need?
The 42 inch size is sized for a 42 inch door leaf, and it is a wide stile device needing 4 inches of stile. On an aluminum storefront with a 1-3/4 inch or 2 inch narrow stile you will not have the face to land it, so go to a narrow stile rim device instead, like the TownSteel ED3700 or the Corbin Russwin ED4200.
4) What electrified options can I get on the SDC Spectra S6000 rim device?
Six choices on the electrified axis: A for alarmed exit battery powered, B for alarmed exit hardwired, E for motorized electric latch retraction and dogging, EM for the same motorized latch retraction and dogging with an external module, G for electric dogging, or None for a straight mechanical device. Pick E or EM when your access control needs to pull the latch back for remote unlock; G only releases the pushpad dogging.
5) Can I get latch monitoring or request-to-exit signalling on the SDC S61?
Yes. The device option axis offers L for Latch Status monitoring and R for Request-To-Exit, or None if you do not need a switch. Integrators tying the door into an access control panel usually want R for REX to shunt the alarm on legitimate egress, and L when the head end needs to confirm the latch is actually secured.
6) What trim functions does the SDC S6000 series offer for outside entry?
Five trim functions: 01 exit only with no trim, 02 dummy trim with no cylinder prep, 03 key retracts latchbolt (nightlatch), 08 key locks and unlocks the lever (classroom), and 14 lever always active (passage). A stairwell or back door usually gets 03; a classroom or office suite that has to be locked from outside with a key gets 08; 14 is for openings where the outside lever should always turn and security comes from the access control side.
7) Will the SDC S61 latch into the rim strike that is already on my frame?
The latchbolt throws 3/4 inch, which is the usual rim device throw, so it will engage a standard surface-mounted rim strike. Because this is a rim device it latches into a strike on the frame stop, not into the head or threshold, so it is for a single door or a pair with a mullion. For a pair with no mullion you need vertical rod hardware instead, such as the Hager 4501 concealed vertical rod device.
8) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to the SDC S61 Spectra fire rated rim exit device with electric latch retraction and request-to-exit?
The Sargent 12-8810-LTRIM is the nearest peer: a fire rated wide stile rim exit device in the 8800 Series with RX and motorized electric latch retraction built in, carrying Grade 1. The SDC S61 covers the same ground from its own option set, with Motorized Electric Latch Retraction and Dogging offered as an E or EM electrified option and Request-To-Exit as an R device option, on a fire rated wide stile device with a 4 inch stile width and 1-3/4 to 2 inch door thickness range. The practical difference is configuration: the SDC is ordered by combining device option, electrified option and trim function, while the Sargent peer is listed as a fixed dummy-function build with L trim.
9) If I only need a mechanical fire rated rim device with no access control, what can I use instead of the SDC S61 Spectra?
Several fire rated rim devices cover the opening without electrification. The Marks USA M9900F is offered in 36 inch and 48 inch exit only versions with a panic protector end cap, the Orca OED85 Series is a 36 inch fire rated rim exit device in exit only, and the Dexter ED1000-R-F-EO is a Grade 1 fire rated rim device. The SDC S61 remains the choice when the door needs latch status monitoring, request-to-exit signaling, alarmed exit or electric dogging, since those are its device and electrified options.
10) My opening is an aluminum storefront with a narrow stile. Is the SDC S61 Spectra the right device, or should I look at something else?
The SDC S61 Spectra is a wide stile device built for a 4 inch stile, so a narrow stile storefront needs a narrow stile device. Fire rated narrow stile options include the Adams Rite 3700 Series 30 inch device with starwheel interlocking, which is Grade 1 and fire rated. Non-fire-rated narrow stile choices include the Adams Rite 8800 Series, the Corbin Russwin ED4200 Grade 1 narrow stile 36 inch device, the Falcon 1590EO at 42 inches, and the TownSteel ED3700. Confirm the fire rating requirement for the opening before choosing among them.
11) We need a thicker door than 2 inches. What rim device works where the SDC S61 Spectra does not?
The SDC S61 Spectra covers a 1-3/4 to 2 inch door thickness range. For thicker leaves, the Adams Rite 8800 Series narrow stile rim device is listed at 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch, and the DORMA 9300A wide stile device is also listed at 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch. The Securitron EMB electromechanical exit bar is listed at 2-1/4 inch. Note that the Adams Rite 8800 and the DORMA 9300A are not fire rated.
12) What can I use instead of the SDC S61 Spectra on a 48 inch door?
The SDC S61 Spectra is sized at 42 inches. For wider leaves, the Marks USA M9900F is offered as a 48 inch fire rated rim panic device in exit only, the DORMA 9300A is a 48 inch Grade 1 wide stile device, and the Sargent 2828 and 3828 are Grade 1 reversible wide stile rim devices for 48 inch doors. Of those, the Marks M9900F 48 is the fire rated one.
13) Do I have to order the SDC S61 handed?
No handing to specify. The S61 is non-handed, so one device covers left and right hand openings. That helps if you are stocking spares for a building with doors swinging both ways.
14) What is the closest alternative to the SDC S61 if I need a fire rated electrified wide stile rim device from another brand?
The Sargent 12-8810-LTRIM is the nearest match we carry: fire rated, Grade 1, wide stile rim with RX and motorized electric latch retraction, which lines up with the S61's R Request-To-Exit and E motorized latch retraction options. If you do not need the electrification, the Marks USA M9900F and the Orca OED85 are fire rated rim devices in exit-only form.
15) Can I add a local door alarm to the SDC S61 without running wire?
Yes. Option A gives you an alarmed exit that is battery powered, so there is no power run to the door. If you have power available or want the alarm tied into a panel, option B is the hardwired alarmed exit version.
16) Which wide stile rim exit devices are comparable to the SDC S61 Spectra if the door does not need a fire rating?
For a non-rated wide stile opening, the Corbin Russwin ED5200 is a Grade 1 36 inch wide stile rim device and the ED2200 is a Grade 1 36 inch wide stile exit only version. The DORMA 8300 Series and 9300 Series are Grade 1 wide stile panic rim devices, with the 9300 listed at 48 inches. TownSteel ED1100 and ED9700 are Grade 1 heavy duty wide stile devices at 36 inches, and Detex 10 Advantex is an extra heavy duty Grade 1 wide stile device at 36 inches. None of these carry a fire rating, so the SDC S61 stays the pick where the door assembly is rated, since it is a fire rated device.
17) Is the Securitron EMB electromechanical exit bar a substitute for the SDC S61 Spectra electrified rim device?
They are not interchangeable. The Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar listed for a 2-1/4 inch door. The SDC S61 Spectra is a rim exit device with a 3/4 inch latch throw that latches into a rim strike, is fire rated, and is ordered with trim functions such as key retracts latchbolt, key locks and unlocks lever, or lever always active. If the opening requires a latching fire rated panic device with keyed outside trim, the EMB is not a drop-in for it.
18) Are concealed vertical rod devices like the Hager 4501 an alternative to the SDC S61 Spectra rim device?
They solve a different opening. The Hager 4501 is a 36 inch Grade 1 concealed vertical rod exit device with a wide stile pushpad, and the Hager 4601 is the narrow stile concealed vertical rod version; neither is fire rated. Vertical rod devices latch top and bottom and require the door to be prepped for rods, while the SDC S61 Spectra is a rim device with a 3/4 inch latch throw into a strike on the frame. Pick by the existing door prep, not by the pushpad style.
19) Is there another electrified rim device with classroom trim comparable to the SDC S61 Spectra?
The Dormakaba E2103 is a 36 inch electrified rim exit device supplied with 4908A trim in an 08 classroom function. The SDC S61 Spectra reaches the same function through its 08 trim option, key locks and unlocks the lever, and pairs it with electrified choices including electric dogging, motorized electric latch retraction, and alarmed exit in battery powered or hardwired form. The SDC device is fire rated and non-handed.
20) We standardize on Grade 2 exit hardware in low traffic areas. What is the Grade 2 alternative to the SDC S61 Spectra?
Cal-Royal offers Grade 2 rim devices: the 5000 at 36 inch with a touch bar and the 5500 at 48 inch with a push bar, both heavy duty and neither fire rated. The Cal-Royal A9800 at 36 inch and A9820 at 48 inch are also listed as Grade 2 heavy duty and not fire rated. The SDC S61 Spectra is ANSI/BHMA A156.3 Grade 1 with UL 305 panic hardware and UL 10C positive pressure fire test listings, so it is the one to specify where the opening is in a rated assembly.
21) I need a crossbar or paddle style exit device rather than the SDC S61 Spectra push pad. What are the options?
The SDC S61 Spectra uses a push pad. For a crossbar look, the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 48 inch wide stile crossbar rim device and the CRL Jackson 1095 Series is a 48 inch crossbar rim panic device in exit only. The CRL Jackson 1095P is the paddle version, also wide stile exit only. None of those three are fire rated, and the CRL and Corbin crossbar devices are exit only, so keyed outside trim functions such as nightlatch or classroom would need to come from a device that accepts trim.
22) Is the Detex 00 Series dummy exit device an alternative to the SDC S61 Spectra with 02 dummy trim?
They are not the same thing. The Detex Advantex 00 Series is a super heavy duty dummy exit device in a wide stile Grade 1 design, meaning the device itself does not latch. On the SDC S61 Spectra, the 02 option is dummy trim with no cylinder prep on the outside, while the device remains a fire rated latching rim exit device with a 3/4 inch latch throw. Use the Detex 00 on an inactive leaf and the SDC where the leaf must latch.
23) Which device should I pick if I want a nightlatch function instead of the SDC S61 Spectra configuration?
The SDC S61 Spectra reaches nightlatch through its 03 trim function, key retracts latchbolt, on a fire rated non-handed device. If a fixed nightlatch build is preferred, the Sargent 8504 is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device in night latch function, and the Detex V4003A/03AN is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device supplied with night latch trim. Stile type is the deciding factor between those two.
24) Is the SDC S6000 durable enough for a high traffic entrance in an apartment building or school?
It is built for it. Stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance, ANSI/BHMA A156.3 Grade 1, which is the highest commercial duty rating for exit hardware, and a quiet push pad action. Grade 1 is what most institutional and multi-family specs call for on main egress doors.
