Falcon MEL-1690-EO-US28-30"-7' RHR Long Range Exit Door Bar

Deliver secure, code-compliant egress with the Falcon MEL-1690-EO-US28-30"-7' RHR Long Range Exit Door Bar. This Falcon motorized electric latch retraction (MEL) exit device gives building owners and facility managers an energy-efficient, electromechanical alternative to mechanical dogging—enabling credential-based or system-driven unlatching for monitored access without compromising emergency egress. Engineered for use on Falcon 24 and 25 Series exit devices (not compatible with 25-M mortise), the MEL assembly is self-calibrating and includes on-board installation diagnostics for faster commissioning. Its low power profile supports longer wire runs and works with a standard Schlage power supply and option board, reducing infrastructure costs. The unit is vandal resistant, responds to tamper events, and is available on panic and fire-rated devices—note that fire-rated MEL installations require fire alarm integration to drop power in an emergency. Ideal for multifamily, commercial real estate, and institutional environments where security, access control, and surveillance integration matter, the Falcon MEL-1690 simplifies retrofit and new-build deployments. Contact your sales rep or add to cart to specify MEL-1690 for your next access control project.
