Falcon MEL-25R-EO-710 Rim Exit Device, Wide Stile Pushpad, 36" Device, Exit Only Function, Less Trim, Less Dogging, Motorized Electric Latch Retraction, Grade 1, Non Handed, Dark Bronze Finish
The Falcon MEL-25R-EO-710 is a Grade 1 rim exit device built for high-traffic commercial openings that demand reliable, code-compliant egress. Designed for wide stile doors up to 36 inches, this exit-only model features motorized electric latch retraction (MEL), allowing the latch to be retracted and held open through an electrical signal for remote access control or automatic operator integration. It ships less trim and less dogging, making it ideal for installations where exterior access is managed electronically. The non-handed design simplifies ordering and installation, while the durable Dark Bronze (710) finish delivers a clean, professional appearance that holds up in demanding environments.
Features
- Grade 1 rim exit device engineered for heavy-duty commercial use.
- Wide stile pushpad design covering doors up to 36 inches wide.
- Motorized electric latch retraction for quiet, low-current remote operation.
- Exit-only function with no exterior trim, pairing cleanly with access control systems.
- Non-handed construction for versatile, simplified installation.

Functional Details
The motorized electric latch retraction system uses a quiet motor to withdraw the latch bolt and hold it in the retracted position when energized, enabling push-pull or automatic operator use. When power is removed, the device returns to its secure latching state for reliable egress at all times.
- Motorized latch retraction operates quietly with low current draw.
- Latch remains retracted while energized for remote or scheduled access.
- Fail-secure operation returns the latch to the locked position on power loss.
