Corbin Russwin ED5400A-630-W048 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the ED5400 surface vertical rod secure a pair of doors without a mullion?
It does. A surface vertical rod latches at the head and at the threshold rather than into a strike on the frame edge, so a pair of doors can be protected with no center mullion. The ED5400 top latch is a 3/4 inch throw pullman-type with deadlocking, and the bottom is a 5/8 inch throw deadbolt. If you would rather keep a mullion and use a simpler device, a rim device such as the ED5200 is the alternative.
2) Can I hold the door in a push-pull state during business hours with the ED5400?
On a non-fire opening, yes. The standard build uses single point 1/4 turn hex key dogging, which retracts the latch so the door pushes free. Cylinder dogging is available as M52 (cylinder not included), and electric dogging is offered. On a fire rated opening you order M51, less dogging, because fire exit hardware must latch at all times.
3) Does the ED5400 work as exit only, or can I add outside trim?
Its function is exit only but it accepts trim, so you can add outside lever trim or a pull for controlled entry from the corridor side. Lever trims and pulls are ADA compliant, and free wheeling levers are offered for vandal resistance. Remember that lever trim makes the assembly handed.
4) The ED5400 needs a 4-1/2 inch stile. What surface vertical rod device works on a narrow stile aluminum door instead?
The Corbin Russwin ED5400 is a wide stile device with a 4-1/2 inch minimum stile width. For a narrow stile opening, the narrow stile surface vertical rod peers include the Von Duprin 3327A grooved case and Von Duprin 7527 (75 Series), the Falcon 19-V-EO and Falcon 24-V-EO, the Adams Rite 8200 Series, and the TownSteel ED3727. Of those, the Arrow S1150 is listed for narrow or wide stile and is fire rated, which makes it the narrow stile option that keeps the fire label.
5) Is the Sargent 12-8710 an alternative to a Corbin Russwin ED5400 on an active egress door?
No. The Sargent 12-8710 is a Grade 1 fire rated wide stile surface vertical rod device with a dummy function, meaning it does not latch or provide egress operation. The Corbin Russwin ED5400 is an exit only device that accepts trim. For an inactive leaf matched to an ED5400 on the active leaf, the 12-8710 is the correct pairing; for the egress leaf itself, use the ED5400 or another exit only device such as the Sargent 3727 (30 Series, Grade 1, wide stile).
6) Need a vertical rod device for a wood fire door. Which models are listed as wood door compatible?
Among the comparable surface vertical rod devices, the TownSteel 9700 Series EF9727 is fire rated, Grade 1, wide stile, and listed as wood door compatible, making it the wood-door fire rated peer to the Corbin Russwin ED5400. The TownSteel ED8927 and ED3727 are also wood door compatible but are not fire rated. The Von Duprin 7527 and 7827 are listed as not wood door compatible.
7) What are the alternatives to the Corbin Russwin ED5400 for a fire rated wide stile surface vertical rod?
Two close cross-brand equivalents we carry: the TownSteel EF9727 from the 9700 Series, a fire rated Grade 1 heavy duty wide stile surface vertical rod for 36 x 84 inch doors and rated for wood doors, and the Sargent 2727, a reversible Grade 1 fire rated wide stile exit-only device. The Adams Rite 3100 Series is another fire rated Grade 1 wide stile option at 30 inches for 1-3/4 inch doors. Where the ED5400 stands apart in that group is the 48 inch bar, which covers leaves up to 48 inches wide.
8) My opening is not fire rated. Is there a cheaper alternative to the ED5400?
If the opening carries no label you do not need fire exit hardware. Non-rated Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod options we stock include the Von Duprin 2227 (36 inch, non-handed, 1-3/4 inch doors), the Falcon 20 Series and 25 Series at 36 inches, and the TownSteel ED8927. For lighter traffic, the TownSteel TS5100 is Grade 2. Note that none of those are listed for a 3-hour fire opening, so they are not a substitute on a labeled door.
9) Should I order the ED5400 less bottom rod?
Less bottom rod is offered as a yes/no option. LBR is the usual pick where the floor is uneven, where carpet or a threshold fouls the bottom strike, or where a dragging bottom rod becomes a maintenance call. Keep the bottom rod when you want the two-point latching, including the 5/8 inch bottom deadbolt, for extra pull resistance at the base of the door.
10) Is the ED5400 handed, or can I use one device for both doors of a pair?
Non-handed as standard and field reversible, so a single device works on either leaf. Handing only becomes a factor if you add lever trim or a double cylinder device, which are handed.
11) What door thickness does the ED5400 mount on?
1-3/4 inches (44mm) is standard, which covers most commercial hollow metal and wood doors. Thicker doors are handled with the D200 option for 2 inch and D214 for 2-1/4 inch.
12) How much does the ED5400 stick out into the corridor?
Projection is 3-1/4 inches (83mm) with the device active and 2-3/4 inches (70mm) when dogged. That matters where the door swings into a tight corridor or against a wall, and where you are checking clear egress width.
13) Will the ED5400 latch into my existing surface strike?
Plan on using the strike supplied with the device. The ED5400 comes with a surface mounted 3/8 inch roller strike with a positive locking plate and shims, and the latching is matched to it: 3/4 inch throw pullman top latch with deadlocking auxiliary latch, 5/8 inch throw deadbolt at the bottom. Shims let you take up minor gap variation at the head.
14) Is there a lighter duty or Grade 2 alternative to the Corbin Russwin ED5400 vertical rod device?
The ED5400 is ANSI/BHMA Grade 1. For lower-traffic openings that do not need Grade 1, the Dexter ED2000 Series is a Grade 2 surface vertical rod panic device and the TownSteel TS5100 Series is a Grade 2 wide stile device described as heavy duty. The Design Hardware 2000V is catalogued as standard duty and the Orca OED56 Series as standard duty, less bottom rod. None of those four carry a fire rating, so they suit panic-only, non-labeled doors.
15) I need a 48 inch wide stile vertical rod device. Do the comparable models cover doors that wide?
The Corbin Russwin ED5400 is offered with a 48 inch bar covering doors from 36 to 48 inches. Most comparable surface vertical rod devices are stocked at shorter bar lengths: the BEST Precision 2201 and 5201 at 36 inches, the Von Duprin 2227 and Falcon 20 Series at 36 inches, the Design Hardware 1000V and 2000V at 33 inches, and the Adams Rite 3100 and 8100 Series at 30 inches. For a 48 inch leaf the ED5400 with the 48 inch bar is the direct fit.
16) Which vertical rod devices are reversible like the Corbin Russwin ED5400?
The ED5400 is a reversible, non-handed device. Among the comparable surface vertical rod models, the BEST Precision 5201 Series is listed as reversible, the Sargent 2727 is a reversible Grade 1 fire rated wide stile device, the Von Duprin 2227 is non-handed, and the Orca OED56 Series is non-handed. Any of these avoids specifying hand at the time of order.
17) What is the difference between the Corbin Russwin ED5400 and the Dexter ED1000 or ED1500 vertical rod devices?
All three are Grade 1 surface vertical rod exit devices. The Corbin Russwin ED5400 is fire rated, wide stile with a 4-1/2 inch minimum stile, and configured exit only while accepting trim. The Dexter ED1500 Series is listed as not fire rated, so on a labeled opening the ED5400 is the one that carries the 3 hour fire exit hardware listing. The Dexter ED1000 Series is the exit only Grade 1 device in that family.
18) Which alternatives to the Corbin Russwin ED5400 offer hex key dogging?
The ED5400 comes standard with single point 1/4 turn hex key dogging, with cylinder dogging (M52) and less dogging (M51) as options. Among comparable devices, the Von Duprin 7827 is a 3 ft Grade 1 surface vertical rod device specified with hex key dogging. Note that on fire rated openings dogging is generally not permitted, which is why the less dogging option exists on the ED5400.
19) What finishes can I get the ED5400 in to match the rest of my building?
Eleven finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 611 bright bronze, 612 satin bronze, 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, 619 satin nickel, 625 bright chrome, 629 bright stainless, 630 satin stainless, 722 black oxidized bronze oil-rubbed, and BSP black suede powder coat. 630 satin stainless is the usual standard for commercial openings.
