Corbin Russwin ED5470B-W048-630 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does "less bottom rod" mean on the Corbin Russwin ED5470B, and is it still fire rated without the bottom rod?
Less bottom rod (the M55 option) means the ED5470B latches only at the head of the frame, with no rod or latch running down to the threshold. That keeps the floor clear of a bottom strike, which is why it is the common pick for hospital corridors, schools and anywhere carts or wheelchairs cross the opening. It stays a 1-1/2 hour fire rated device because Corbin Russwin supplies a heat activated door bolt (popper) as standard on every fire rated device ordered less bottom rod. The popper drops into the floor under fire conditions to hold the leaf shut.
2) Will a Corbin Russwin ED5470B fit my door stile, and what if my door has a narrow stile?
The ED5470B is a wide stile device and needs a minimum stile width of 4-1/2 inches. Measure the lock stile of the leaf; if it is under 4-1/2 inches, this device will not mount and you need a narrow stile device instead. For narrow stile aluminum openings ZenSupply carries the Adams Rite 8200 Series and the Von Duprin 3327A, both narrow stile surface vertical rod devices, though neither of those is fire rated. If you need narrow stile and fire rated, the Arrow S1150 is listed for narrow or wide stile with a fire rating.
3) Do I have to specify handing when I order the ED5470B?
Not for the device itself. The ED5470B is non-handed and field reversible, so one part number covers left and right hand openings. Handing only comes into play if you add lever trim or a double cylinder device, which are handed. Order the trim to the swing of the door.
4) Is this exit device for a single door or a pair, and do I need a mullion?
A surface vertical rod device latches into the frame head rather than into a strike on the edge of the door, so the ED5470B works on a single leaf or on both leaves of a pair with no center mullion. That is the main reason to choose vertical rod over a rim device: a rim exit device latching into a strike needs either a jamb or a removable mullion between the two leaves. On a fire rated pair, each leaf gets its own device.
5) Which dogging option should I pick on the ED5470B, and can I dog a fire rated device?
Three choices are offered: standard single point 1/4-turn hex key dogging, M51 less dogging, and M52 cylinder dogging supplied less cylinder. Mechanical dogging holds the pushbar depressed so the door stays push-pull during business hours, which is a retail and school lobby habit. On fire rated openings the door has to latch at all times, so M51 less dogging is the configuration that belongs on a labeled fire door. If you go M52, budget for a mortise cylinder separately since none is included.
6) Does the ED5470B come with a lever or pull, or is it exit only?
It ships exit only, meaning pushbar on the inside and no outside operating trim. The chassis accepts trim, so you add the lever, pull or thumbpiece separately from the Corbin Russwin trim range, including the Museo and Vineyard collections. Levers are free wheeling for vandal resistance, and the lever trims and pulls are ADA compliant.
7) What ratings and code approvals does the Corbin Russwin ED5470B carry?
ANSI/BHMA A156.3 Grade 1, UL/cUL listed panic and fire exit hardware, and a 1-1/2 hour fire rating on this configuration. It is listed as compliant with NFPA 101 and NFPA 80 and is California State Fire Marshal approved, with ADA compliant lever trims and pulls. That combination is what a facilities or spec writer needs for a labeled corridor or stair door.
8) What is the closest fire rated wide stile surface vertical rod exit device to the Corbin Russwin ED5470B from another brand?
The closest cross-brand matches are the Sargent 2727, a Grade 1 fire rated reversible wide stile surface vertical rod exit device with an exit only function, and the TownSteel EF9727, a heavy duty Grade 1 fire rated wide stile surface vertical rod device for a 36 inch by 84 inch door. Like the ED5470B, both are wide stile fire rated Grade 1 surface vertical rod devices. The ED5470B itself carries a 1-1/2 hour fire rating with a reversible hand and a 4-1/2 inch minimum stile width, and it is built to accept trim as well as run exit only.
9) Is the Sargent 12-8710 a substitute for the Corbin Russwin ED5470B?
No. The Sargent 12-8710 is a Grade 1 wide stile fire rated surface vertical rod device with a dummy function, meaning it does not latch or provide egress operation. The ED5470B is an exit only device that also accepts trim, so it performs the egress function on the opening. A dummy device is used on an inactive leaf or for appearance matching, not as a functional replacement.
10) If the opening is not fire rated, is there a simpler alternative to the Corbin Russwin ED5470B?
Yes. On a non-rated wide stile opening you can use the Von Duprin 2227, a Grade 1 non-handed wide stile surface vertical rod device for 36 inch doors at 1-3/4 inch thickness, the Falcon 25-V-EO or Falcon 20 Series Grade 1 wide stile exit only devices, or the TownSteel ED8927 Grade 1 wide stile device for a 36 inch by 84 inch door. None of those carry a fire rating, so they cannot replace the ED5470B on a rated opening, where its 1-1/2 hour rating is what the door assembly requires.
11) What strike does the top latch of this vertical rod device use, and will it work with my existing frame?
The top latch is a 3/4 inch throw pullman-type deadlocking latchbolt on the ED5400 vertical rod platform, and it lands in a surface-mounted 3/8 inch roller strike supplied with a positive locking plate and shims. Because the strike surface mounts to the frame head rather than dropping into a mortised prep, you are not tied to an existing strike cutout, and the shims let you take up gap variation on an out-of-square frame.
12) Which other fire rated surface vertical rod exit device should I look at for a wide stile door if I also need a less bottom rod configuration?
The ED5470B is configured less bottom rod with a heat activated door bolt, which suits wide stile openings where floor conditions or thresholds rule out a bottom latch. Among other brands, the Orca Hardware OED56 Series is a 36 inch standard duty vertical rod device supplied less bottom rod and non-handed for 1-3/4 inch doors, though it is listed without a fire rating. For a rated wide stile opening, the Adams Rite 3100 Series is a Grade 1 fire rated wide stile surface vertical rod device for 1-3/4 inch doors.
13) How does the Corbin Russwin ED5470B compare to the Sargent 3727 and BEST Precision 2201?
The Sargent 3727 is a Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod exit device with a standard push bar and an exit only function. The BEST Precision 2201 Series is a 36 inch wide stile surface vertical rod device listed without a fire rating. The ED5470B differs in that it is a 48 inch device with a 1-1/2 hour fire rating, reversible handing, and hex key dogging as standard, and it accepts trim in addition to running exit only.
14) Are there wood door compatible alternatives to the Corbin Russwin ED5470B?
Yes. The TownSteel EF9727 is listed as wood door compatible and is a heavy duty Grade 1 fire rated wide stile surface vertical rod device, which makes it the wood door option that keeps both the wide stile format and a fire rating. The TownSteel ED8927 and ED3727 are also wood door compatible Grade 1 devices but are listed without a fire rating. By contrast, the Von Duprin 7527 and 7827 are listed as not wood door compatible.
15) How far does the ED5470B stick out from the door face?
Projection is 3-1/4 inches (83mm) with the device active, dropping to 2-3/4 inches (70mm) when dogged. Worth checking against your clear door width and against anything mounted on the opposite wall in a tight vestibule or narrow corridor.
16) What finishes does the Corbin Russwin ED5470B come in?
Ten finishes are offered on the 48 inch device: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 611 bright bronze, 612 satin bronze, 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, 619 satin nickel, 722 black oxidized bronze oil-rubbed, 625 bright chrome, 629 bright stainless steel, 630 satin stainless steel, and BSP black suede powder coat. For a property manager matching existing openings, 630 satin stainless is the usual commercial standard and BSP is the match for black storefront and modern lobby packages.
17) What standard duty surface vertical rod exit devices are there if the ED5470B is more device than the opening needs?
For lighter traffic, the Design Hardware 2000V is a 33 inch standard duty surface vertical rod exit device and the Design Hardware 1000V is a 33 inch heavy duty version, both listed without a fire rating. The Dexter ED1500 Series is a Grade 1 surface vertical rod device, also without a fire rating. The ED5470B is a Grade 1 device with a 1-1/2 hour fire rating, so it stays the choice on rated openings and high traffic doors.
