Delaney Hardware 694300 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Delaney F9100 exit device fire rated, and can I use it on a labeled door?
The F9100 carries a fire rating and is a Grade 1 device. It is UL Listed to UL 305 as panic hardware. Note that fire rated exit devices are supplied without dogging, since a fire door has to latch on every cycle.
2) Do I need a mullion to use this on a pair of doors?
No. A surface vertical rod device like the F9100 latches into a strike at the head and one at the sill, so it secures the door on its own vertical edges rather than against a center post. That is exactly why it gets specified on pairs where a removable mullion would be in the way. A rim device, by contrast, throws a latch at the strike jamb and does need a mullion on a pair.
3) What is the closest fire rated equivalent to the Delaney F9100 vertical rod exit device for a 36 by 84 inch door?
The Marks USA M9900FVR is the closest match in the group. It is a fire rated vertical rod exit device sized for a 36 inch by 84 inch door, exit only and non-handed. The Delaney F9100 is likewise a Grade 1 fire rated vertical rod device for a 36 inch by 84 inch opening, with painted steel chassis, end cap and rail in the aluminum finish and a zinc alloy cover. If your opening is fire rated and you need surface vertical rod hardware at that size, either device addresses it.
4) Is the Cal-Royal 9860 a substitute for the Delaney F9100 exit device?
Only on a non-rated opening. The Cal-Royal 9860 is a heavy duty surface vertical rod exit device, Grade 2, exit only, and it is not fire rated. The Delaney F9100 is Grade 1 and fire rated. If the door assembly is fire rated or the specification calls for Grade 1, the 9860 will not satisfy it; on a standard non-rated egress door where Grade 2 is acceptable, it is a working vertical rod alternative.
5) My aluminum storefront door has a narrow stile. Will the Delaney F9100 fit, or do I need something else?
The Delaney F9100 requires a minimum stile width of 3-1/2 inches, so a true narrow stile storefront leaf will not accept it. For narrow stile aluminum doors, the Detex Advantex 5001DN/5101DN is a Grade 1 narrow stile surface vertical rod exit device supplied with a blank escutcheon. Confirm your actual stile dimension before ordering either one.
6) What strikes come with the Delaney F9100 vertical rod device?
Three strikes are specified for the F9100: a #8171 steel strike for the top case, a #8178 steel strike for the bottom case, and a #8285 overlapping strike. The overlapping strike is the one to use where the pair meets and you need the leaf to overlap rather than land in a mortised frame pocket.
7) What mounting hardware ships with this panic bar, and do I need sex bolts?
Wood and machine screws come standard with the F9100. Sex nuts and bolts, part 1346, are an option you add. On a fire rated wood door or any through-bolted application where the door skin will not hold a machine screw, specify the 1346 sex bolts at the time of order.
8) What else can I buy if I need a fire rated 36 x 84 vertical rod exit device?
The Marks USA M9900FVR in 36 x 84 is the closest cross-brand match, a fire rated vertical rod device in exit only function. If the opening is a 48 inch leaf, Marks offers the M9900F-VR at 48 x 84, also fire rated. Both are exit only, meaning no outside trim, so if you need keyed entry from the pull side the Delaney F9100 with trim is the better route.
9) What Grade 1 vertical rod options are there if I do not need a fire rating?
Two wide stile Grade 1 devices cover non-rated openings. The Imperial USA ED-VR531 from the ED-500 Series is a 36 inch surface vertical rod exit device, exit only, not fire rated. The Von Duprin 8827-3FT from the 88 Series is a wide stile surface vertical rod device at 3 feet, listed for 1-3/4 inch door thickness and not fire rated. The Delaney F9100 differs in that it is fire rated and takes doors 1-3/4 to 2 inches standard with 2-1/4 inches optional.
10) I need the exit device to also allow keyed entry from the outside. Does the Delaney F9100 do that?
The Delaney F9100 is furnished as a vertical rod panic device with strikes for the top and bottom cases and does not include outside trim. If you need controlled entry from the pull side, the Detex V50/V51 Value Series V5009BN/V5109BN is a Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod device supplied with lever trim that is active by key and locked when the key is removed. Note that the V50/V51 is a wide stile device like the F9100, so the same stile considerations apply.
11) Is the Detex 30 Advantex a drop-in replacement for the Delaney F9100 vertical rod device?
No. The Detex 30 Advantex is a mortise exit device, not a vertical rod device, so it latches at the strike jamb rather than at the head and sill and requires different door prep. It is a super-heavy-duty Grade 1 wide stile unit for a 36 inch door and is not fire rated and not wood door compatible. The Delaney F9100 is a vertical rod type device that covers stock hollow metal doors with a 161 cutout and ships with wood and machine screws.
12) I need delayed egress with an alarm on an exterior door. Does the Delaney F9100 offer that?
The Delaney F9100 is a mechanical panic device listed to UL 305 as panic hardware; it has no alarm or delayed egress function. For that application, the Detex Advantex 10 Series 10EEX is a weatherized delayed egress exit device with a 100 dB alarm and NEMA 4X protection, which is the direction to take for an exterior opening needing egress delay and audible annunciation.
13) What is the difference between the Delaney F9100 and the Marks USA M9900VR for a 36 inch door?
Size coverage is comparable, but the fire rating is not. The Marks USA M9900VR is a 36 inch by 84 inch vertical rod panic exit device, exit only and non-handed, and it is not fire rated. The Delaney F9100 is Grade 1 and fire rated for the same 36 inch by 84 inch opening, and it accepts a top rod extension up to 10 feet with the bar field cuttable to size. Choose by whether the door assembly carries a fire label.
14) What finishes does the Delaney F9100 exit device come in?
The chassis, end cap and rail assembly are painted steel in aluminum or duronodic, or stainless steel in US32D. The cover is zinc alloy. Aluminum is the common pick when it has to blend with a storefront or an existing aluminum frame; US32D stainless is the usual choice for schools and hospitals where the whole opening is brushed stainless.
15) Is the Delaney F9100 heavy duty enough for a school or hospital corridor?
That is what it is built for. It is a Grade 1 commercial device with steel chassis and rail, a zinc latchbolt and stainless steel latch springs throughout, and Delaney lists it for offices, schools, hospitals, apartments, hotels and other public buildings. For a lower traffic, non-labeled opening where Grade 2 is acceptable, the Cal-Royal 9860 surface vertical rod is a lighter-spec alternative.
