We’re in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, and the good news is that the specwriter Chip and I came to see has agreed to include Falcon exit devices in his specifications! Yippee!
The bad news is that we arrived a bit early for Bike Week, but I figured it’s still a good place to mention cycle testing. The new Falcon exit devices are certified to meet the BHMA requirements for Grade 1, which include cycle-testing the devices for a minimum of 500,000 cycles. So if you’d like to propose Falcon 24/25 devices for a project that requires Grade 1 panic hardware, give my office (or your local SSC office) a call and we’ll help you with the process. And if you need more information about BHMA certifications, their website has a wealth of information, including “Standards at a Glance” which are summaries of the standards. Most of the Standards at a Glance can be downloaded for free.
Chip did a little cycle testing of his own on our road trip:
The kids got in on the cycle testing too:

I like the “cycle test”.
ha! i thought a cycle test related to how mane actuations of a piece of hardware… LOL… anyway, panic hardware is panic hardware, unless you’re haning von duprin fire rated,, then that’s expensive !!
but my big concern is, does the outside trim levers clutch ?? that’s my big security concern…
