Falcon Lock RX-MEL-F25C-L-DAN-US26D-36X96-RHR RX MEL Motorized Exit Device, Fire Rated, Concealed Vertical Rod, Satin Chrome

Falcon Lock RX-MEL-F25C-L-DAN-US26D-36X96-RHR KIT offers an advanced solution for securing commercial and multifamily properties with its motorized electric latch retraction (MEL) system. This fire-rated, concealed vertical rod exit device combines safety and aesthetic appeal, making it an ideal choice for both single and double door applications. Featuring a durable extruded aluminum construction, it resists impacts while maintaining a streamlined design with no exposed screws or rivets. This exit device supports two-point latching for enhanced security and is designed for easy in-field adjustments through a patented center slide mechanism. The MEL functionality allows authorized users to gain access via credential readers, providing the flexibility of momentary or extended latch retraction. The device is UL rated for a three-hour fire rating and accommodates doors up to 36 inches wide and 96 inches tall, with a right-hand reversible configuration. Additional highlights include a vandal-resistant design, self-calibrating motor assembly, and compatibility with security monitoring systems. The unit is certified to ANSI A156.3-2001 grade 1 standards, ensuring reliability and performance. Falcon Lock’s RX-MEL exit device stands out with its energy-efficient motor for longer wire runs, making it a smart investment for modern security needs.

KIT - RX MEL Request to Exit, Motorized Electric Latch Retraction, Fire Rated CVR Concealed Vertical Rod Exit Device, Escutcheon x Dane Lever Trim 510L, (Requires 1-1/4 Mortise Cylinder), 36in x 96in, RHR Right Hand Reverse/Reversible, 24VDC 1 Amp, Grade 1, 626/US26D Satin Chrome

The F-25-C Series device lets you combine the safety of a fire-rated device with the clean aesthetics that come with a concealed vertical rod installation. In-field adjustment is simple thanks to our patented center slide mechanism. Two-point latching ensures optimal security at the door. Motorized electric latch retraction (MEL) provides energy efficient electronic control of an exit device for an affordable around the door solution. The MEL option is Falcon’s solution of choice for multifamily and commercial real estate facilities where cost competitive electromechanical latch retraction is desired. It is available on most Falcon 24 and 25 Series exit devices (not available for mortise 25-M or F-25-M). These devices always provide mechanical egress. Motorized electric latch retraction can be used with credential readers to unlatch doors momentarily for authorized users, or it can be incorporated with systems to retract latches for extended periods of time to allow free entry. This is a convenient alternative to mechanical dogging. Doors with automatic operators also may use exit devices with electric latch retraction.
