Corbin Russwin ED5400-630 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Corbin Russwin ED5400 fit my door, and what stile width does it need?
The ED5400 is a wide stile device and needs at least 4-1/2 inches of stile to mount. Door thickness is 1-3/4 inches. The standard 36 inch push bar covers doors from 30 to 36 inches wide, and the bar can be field cut within that range. If your aluminum storefront door has a narrower stile than 4-1/2 inches, this is the wrong device.
2) Do I need to order the ED5400 handed?
No, handing is field reversible on the device itself. The exception is lever trim and double cylinder devices, which are handed and must be specified left or right hand when you order them. If you are buying exit only, hand does not matter.
3) Will a surface vertical rod device like the ED5400 secure a pair of doors without a mullion?
Yes. The ED5400 latches into the head and the threshold rather than the frame jamb, so a pair of doors can be secured with no center mullion in the opening. Top latch is a 3/4 inch throw pullman deadlocking latch, bottom is a 5/8 inch throw deadbolt. If you have a single door in a frame with a jamb to latch into, a rim device is simpler to install and maintain.
4) Can I get the ED5400 without the bottom rod?
Yes, less bottom rod is an orderable option. LBR removes the bottom rod and latch so nothing drags at the threshold, which is common where floors are carpeted, out of level, or where the bottom latch keeps fouling. On an LBR setup the top latch is doing the work, so plan on a door closer and often a coordinator on a pair.
5) How do I hold the ED5400 in a push-pull state during business hours?
Standard is single point 1/4 turn hex key dogging, which retracts and holds the touchpad down so the door pushes free. You can also order M52 cylinder dogging (cylinder not included, order separately) if you would rather staff used a key than a hex wrench, or M51 less dogging where the code or the owner does not want the device dogged at all. Electric dogging is also offered in the ED5000 Series.
6) The ED5400 is not fire rated. What surface vertical rod device should I order for a fire rated opening?
The ED5400 carries a Fire Rating value of No, so for a labeled opening choose a fire rated surface vertical rod device. Wide stile fire rated options include the TownSteel EF9727 in the 9700 Series, a heavy duty Grade 1 device for 36 by 84 inch wood-compatible doors, the Sargent 2727 Grade 1 fire rated reversible device, and the Adams Rite 3100 Series at 1-3/4 inch. The Arrow S1150 is fire rated and fits narrow or wide stile doors as an exit only device.
7) My door is a narrow stile aluminum storefront - the ED5400 needs 4-1/2 inch stile. What should I use instead?
The ED5400 is a wide stile device requiring a minimum 4-1/2 inch stile, so a narrow stile storefront needs a different device. Narrow stile surface vertical rod options include the Von Duprin 3327A for 36 inch doors at 1-3/4 inch thickness, the Von Duprin 7527 in the 75 Series, the Falcon 19-V-EO at 36 inch Grade 1 exit only, the Falcon 24-V-EO, the Adams Rite 8200 Series, and the TownSteel ED3727 at 36 by 84 inches. All are Grade 1 narrow stile surface vertical rod devices.
8) What is the closest Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod equivalent to the Corbin Russwin ED5400 if I need a different brand?
The Von Duprin 2227-3FT is the nearest match. Like the ED5400 it is a wide stile surface vertical rod device, Grade 1, non-handed, for 1-3/4 inch doors on a 36 inch opening. The ED5400 is also Grade 1 wide stile with reversible handing and a 1-3/4 inch standard door thickness. Sargent's 2727 is another wide stile Grade 1 exit-only surface vertical rod that is reversible, and Falcon's 20 Series 20-V wide stile device covers the same 36 inch Grade 1 exit-only application at 1-3/4 inch.
9) What finishes does the ED5400 come in, and can I match the rest of my building hardware?
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 match for commercial openings already running BHMA 630 levers and closers.
10) Does the ED5400 accept outside trim, or is it exit only?
Both. It ships as exit only but accepts trim, so you can add lever or pull trim for outside access. Corbin Russwin offers Free Wheeling levers on the trim for vandal resistance, and the lever trims and pulls are ADA compliant. Remember lever trim is handed even though the device is not.
11) How much does the ED5400 stick out from the door face?
Projection is 3-1/4 inches (83mm) in the active position and 2-3/4 inches (70mm) when dogged. That matters in a tight vestibule, on a door that swings near a wall return, or where you need to keep the egress path clear.
12) What is the closest equivalent to the Corbin Russwin ED5400 from another brand?
For a Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod on a 36 inch door, the direct peers are the Von Duprin 2227-3FT, the Falcon 20 Series and Falcon 25-V-EO, and the Sargent 3727. All are Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod devices, and the Von Duprin and Falcon units list the same 1-3/4 inch door thickness. If you want a lighter duty option, the TownSteel TS5100 and Dexter ED2000 are Grade 2.
13) Is the ED5400 heavy duty enough for a school or hospital entrance?
It is ANSI/BHMA A156.3 Grade 1, the highest commercial grade, built on a cold-forged steel chassis with electroplated corrosion resistance. The ED5000 Series has been tested to 3.25 million cycles on the ED5800 CVR. That is the duty level facilities buyers standardize on for schools, healthcare, and high-traffic office entries.
14) Will the ED5400 latch into my existing strike?
Plan on using the supplied strike. The ED5400 comes with a surface-mounted 3/8 inch roller strike with a positive locking plate and shims, and the top latch throws 3/4 inch while the bottom deadbolt throws 5/8 inch. The shims let you take up gap at the head, so the roller strike is what you want to set rather than reusing an old one.
15) I need a surface vertical rod device on a wood door - does the ED5400 comparison set have wood door options?
For wood doors, TownSteel lists wood door compatibility on the ED8927, a Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod for 36 by 84 inch openings, and on the fire rated EF9727 heavy duty Grade 1 wide stile device. By contrast the Von Duprin 7527 and 7827 are listed as not wood door compatible. The ED5400 itself is a Grade 1 wide stile device with a 4-1/2 inch minimum stile and 1-3/4 inch standard door thickness.
16) What is the difference between the ED5400 and the Sargent 12-8710 for a vertical rod opening?
They do different jobs. The Sargent 12-8710 is an 8700 Series fire rated wide stile Grade 1 surface vertical rod with a Dummy function, so it does not latch or provide egress on its own and is used on the inactive or pull side. The ED5400 is an exit only device that accepts trim, with a Grade 1 rating and reversible handing. For a working egress leaf from Sargent, the 2727 and the 3727 are both Grade 1 wide stile exit only surface vertical rod devices.
17) I am standardizing a building on reversible 36 inch surface vertical rod devices. What matches the ED5400 handing flexibility?
The ED5400 is a 36 inch surface vertical rod device with reversible door hand direction, so one part number serves both hands. Comparable reversible or non-handed 36 inch choices include the BEST Precision 5201 Series, described as a 36 inch reversible surface vertical rod device, the Von Duprin 2227-3FT, listed as non-handed Grade 1 wide stile at 36 inches, the Sargent 2727 reversible Grade 1, and the Orca OED56 at 36 inches, non-handed. The BEST Precision 2201 is a 36 inch wide stile surface vertical rod option in the same size class.
18) My opening is 30 inches wide. Which surface vertical rod devices come in that size instead of the 36 inch ED5400?
The ED5400 is listed at 36 inches. For a 30 inch device, the Adams Rite 8100 Series is a 30 inch life-safety wide stile surface vertical rod, the Adams Rite 3100 Series is a 30 inch fire rated wide stile version, the Arrow 3700 Series is a 30 inch Grade 1 wide stile pushpad device, and the Arrow S1150 is a 30 inch fire rated exit only device. Design Hardware offers the 1000V and 2000V at 33 inches.
19) Which Dexter surface vertical rod device lines up with the Corbin Russwin ED5400?
Dexter offers two Grade 1 surface vertical rod lines: the ED1000 Series, available as an exit only vertical rod device, and the ED1500 Series Grade 1 surface vertical rod. Both share the ED5400 Grade 1 rating. The Dexter ED2000 Series sits at Grade 2 instead. If your spec calls for exit only with the option to add trim, the ED5400 is an exit only device that accepts trim.
