Stanley Security QED127X 36 7 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Stanley QED127X exit device be used on a fire-rated door?
No. The QED127X is a non fire-rated device, so it cannot go on a labeled fire door opening. It is built for panic hardware duty on non-rated exits. For a fire exit opening you need a fire-rated (fire exit hardware) device from another Stanley QED variant instead. One practical reason: this configuration is less bottom rod and carries hex dogging, and mechanical dogging is not permitted on fire doors.
2) What does less bottom rod (LBR) mean on the Stanley QED127X, and what does it change about how the door latches?
With LBR, the bottom rod and floor strike are deleted, so the device latches only at the top into the head strike. That keeps the floor clear of a bottom latch and strike, which matters in wet, dirty, or high-traffic openings where a bottom rod gets damaged or fouled, and it makes the door easier to keep operating over time. Security is at the top only, so if your specification calls for two-point latching, order the full concealed vertical rod version rather than the LBR configuration.
3) Which door heights and device lengths does the Stanley QED127X cover, and how do I pick between the 36 inch and 48 inch device?
Two device lengths are offered, 36 inch and 48 inch, and each is available set up for either a 7 ft or an 8 ft door. Pick the device length off the door width (the push bar should run most of the door's clear width), and pick the door size option off the door height, since that determines rod length; the 8 ft configuration uses 96 inch rods. The device is field sizeable, so it can be cut down within its range during install.
4) What is the Request-to-Exit switch on the QED127X wired to, and what can it do?
The RX option is an integrated SPDT switch that signals when the push bar is pushed. Integrators use that dry contact to shunt a door alarm, drop a magnetic lock, or report a valid egress to the access control panel, so no one trips a forced-door alarm on the way out. You supply the wiring to the panel; the switch is built into the device.
5) Does the Stanley QED127X come with outside trim, and what trim fits it?
Trim is not included. The device ships as the push bar and latching mechanism only. It takes QED100 Series trim, so order the lever or pull separately to match the function you need, whether that is classroom/storeroom or office/privacy style operation. Trim mounts thru-bolted to the device.
6) Do I have to order the Stanley QED127X left hand or right hand?
Handing is not part of the order. The QED127X is non-handed and field reversible, so one device covers either swing. That is useful for a property manager stocking spares: a single part number on the shelf covers every opening in the building.
7) Should I use a concealed vertical rod device like the QED127X or a rim device with a mullion?
Concealed vertical rod is the choice when the architect wants nothing visible on the door face and the opening is a pair with no center mullion. The rods and the top latch live inside the door, so all you see is the push bar. The trade-off is door prep: the door must be manufactured or machined for concealed rods, and service means opening the door up. A rim device with a removable mullion is simpler to install and service on an existing pair, but you live with the mullion in the clear opening. On a single door in an existing frame, rim is almost always the easier route.
8) Can I hold the door in a push-pull state during business hours with the QED127X?
Yes, through hex-key dogging. Insert the hex wrench and depress the bar to hold the latch retracted, and the door pushes open freely until you undog it. It is a manual override, not electric, so there is no unlock schedule and no power dependency. Note again that dogging is only allowed here because this device is non fire-rated.
9) Is the Stanley QED127X rated for heavy commercial traffic?
It carries ANSI/BHMA A156.3 Grade 1, the highest commercial grade for exit devices, and is catalogued as commercial-duty hardware. Grade 1 is what most institutional and government specifications call for on main egress doors in schools, healthcare, and public buildings.
10) What fasteners come with the QED127X, and do I need anything else to install it?
Wood screws, machine screws, and sex bolts are supplied, so the device covers both hollow metal and wood door mounting out of the box. What you still need to source is the outside trim, a cylinder if your trim function requires one (the device uses conventional cylinders), and the low-voltage wiring and transfer hinge or door loop to get the RX switch signal off the door.
11) What finishes does the Stanley QED127X exit device come in, and will it match other hardware in the building?
Three finishes are offered: 626 satin chrome, 605 bright brass, and 313AN anodized duranodic bronze. All three are available in both the 36 inch and 48 inch device lengths. Styling is shared with the QED200 Series, so a facility mixing device types across openings keeps a consistent look.
