All standard devices and trim are designed for 1-3/4”- 2-1/4” thick doors. For door thickness greater than 2-1/4”, consult DORMA Technical Service.

Motorized Latch Retraction

The MLR feature retracts the latch using a whisper quiet motor, drawing in the touch bar, thus retracting the latch. The device can be activated by a variety of credentials and also has the ability to electrically hold/dog the exit push bar in a retracted position during non-secure hours.

Dormakaba F9100A-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Do I need to specify handing when ordering a DORMA F9100 exit device?
No handing to call out. The F9100 is non-handed, so one device covers a left or right hand door. What you do specify is the device length (30, 36 or 48 inch) and the finish.
2) Can I use the F9100 on a fire rated stairwell or corridor door?
Yes, the F9100 is the fire rated version of the DORMA 9100 concealed vertical rod device and it is Grade 1 heavy duty. Note that fire rated exit devices are not meant to be held dogged down; use the hex key dogging only where the opening is not fire rated.
3) Does the DORMA F9100 come with outside trim or a lever?
It ships exit only, meaning push the bar from the inside to get out and there is no outside operating trim in the box. If you need entry from the corridor side you order lever trim separately; DORMA offers free wheeling lever trim across the 9000 Series in a range of architectural finishes.
4) Concealed vertical rod or rim device with a mullion for a pair of doors?
A concealed vertical rod device like the F9100 latches top and bottom inside the door, so a pair gets a clear full-width opening with nothing standing between the leaves. That takes doors prepped for concealed rods. If the doors are not prepped, DORMA's other route for pairs is rim devices on both leaves with a removable mullion, available in steel or aluminum in 8 foot or 10 foot lengths; the mullion comes out when you need the full opening.
5) Will the DORMA F9100 fit a narrow stile aluminum storefront door?
No. The F9100 is a wide stile device with a cast chassis and pushpad, sized for wood and hollow metal openings. For narrow stile aluminum entrances look at a narrow stile concealed vertical rod device such as the Adams Rite 8600 Series or the Corbin Russwin ED4800.
6) What is the closest fire-rated Grade 1 wide stile concealed vertical rod exit device to the DORMA F9100?
The Adams Rite 3600 Series is the nearest match: it is a fire-rated Grade 1 concealed vertical rod exit device in a wide stile configuration, the same combination the DORMA F9100 carries. The Adams Rite 3900 Series is also fire-rated Grade 1 wide stile and is described with a 1-1/2 hour rating. The 3600 Series is specified for hollow metal doors, while the F9100 is built for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch thick doors and uses hex key dogging.
7) I have a narrow stile aluminum door - what concealed vertical rod device should I use instead of the F9100?
The DORMA F9100 is a wide stile device, so a narrow stile opening calls for a different part. The Adams Rite 8600 Series is a narrow stile concealed vertical rod exit device for aluminum doors. Other narrow stile options include the Corbin Russwin ED4800 Grade 1 for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Falcon 1690EO exit only, the Falcon 24-C Series Grade 1, and the Von Duprin 3347A. Note that the Adams Rite 8600 and the Von Duprin 3347A-3ft are listed as not fire rated, while the F9100 is fire rated.
8) The F9100 is exit only - what concealed vertical rod device do I use if I need outside lever trim?
The DORMA F9100 is configured exit only with no outside operating trim. If the opening needs outside access, the Corbin Russwin ED5800 is a Grade 1 wide stile concealed vertical rod device listed as exit only or accepts trim, and the Corbin Russwin ED7800 is a narrow stile crossbar version that accepts operator trim. The Sargent MD8613F-LTRIM is a Grade 1 heavy duty concealed vertical rod device supplied with lever trim for a 36 by 84 inch metal door, and the Sargent 12-MD8613 is a fire-rated Grade 1 wide stile device in classroom function.
9) Which concealed vertical rod devices accept a door thicker than 1-3/4 inches?
The DORMA F9100 is specified for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch thick. Many comparable concealed vertical rod devices are listed at 1-3/4 inch only, including the Corbin Russwin ED4800, ED5800 and ED7800, the Falcon 1690EO, 1990EO and 24-C Series, and the Von Duprin 3347A and 7547. If the opening uses a thicker leaf, the F9100 range is the one to work from.
10) Can the DORMA 9100 exit device be tied into a card reader so the door stays unlocked during the day?
Yes, through the motorized latch retraction option. MLR pulls the touch bar in with a quiet motor to retract the latches, it can be triggered by a range of credentials, and it will hold the bar electrically retracted through non-secure hours instead of relying on mechanical dogging. That is the option to specify on a fire rated opening where hex dogging is off the table.
11) Does the F9100 offer a reduced operating force option for accessibility requirements?
The 5 lb maximum operating force option (BF) in the 9000 Series is offered on the 9300, 9500 and 9700 devices. The series as a whole complies with NFPA life safety code. If the specification calls for the CBC 5 lb force, specify one of those three models rather than the 9100.
12) I need a concealed vertical rod exit device for a wood door - is the F9100 the right choice?
The DORMA F9100 is specified for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch thick without a door material restriction. If you want a device called out specifically for wood, the BEST Precision 2701 Series is a wide stile reversible concealed vertical rod device for wood doors. By contrast, the Von Duprin 7547 is listed as not wood door compatible. The BEST Precision 2801 Series is another wide stile concealed vertical rod option.
13) What is a push pad concealed vertical rod alternative to the DORMA F9100 that fits more than one stile width?
The F9100 uses a wide stile pushpad and is non-handed. The CRL Jackson 1285 push pad concealed vertical rod panic exit is listed for narrow, medium or wide stile and is exit only, which makes it flexible where stile width varies across an opening set. The CRL Jackson 1085 Series is a 48 inch non-handed wide stile exit only device; the F9100 comes in 30, 36 and 48 inch sizes.
14) Is there a crossbar concealed vertical rod device instead of a pushpad like the DORMA F9100?
Yes. The DORMA F9100 uses a wide stile pushpad touchbar. If the specification calls for a crossbar, the Corbin Russwin ED7800 is a Grade 1 narrow stile crossbar concealed vertical rod device that accepts operator trim, and the Von Duprin 5547-3ft is a 36 inch narrow stile Grade 1 crossbar device. Both are narrow stile, so confirm the stile width before substituting for the wide stile F9100.
15) My existing device has no bottom rod - is there a less bottom rod concealed vertical rod option comparable to the F9100?
The Von Duprin 3347A-EO is an exit only, less bottom rod narrow stile Grade 1 concealed vertical rod device for 1-3/4 inch doors, which suits openings where a bottom latch and floor strike are not wanted. The DORMA F9100 is a wide stile device for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, so the two differ in both stile width and door thickness range.
16) What finishes does the DORMA F9100 exit device come in for matching existing hardware?
Fifteen finishes, covering the usual architectural codes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 611 bright bronze, 612 satin bronze, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 619 satin nickel, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 629 bright stainless, 630 satin stainless, plus powder coated 689 anodized aluminum, 691 light bronze, 693 black, 695 dark bronze and 696 satin brass. For a building standardizing on one look, 630 and 626 are the common commercial choices.
17) Is the DORMA 9000 Series exit device suitable for a school or high traffic institutional corridor?
That is what it is built for. Heavy duty Grade 1 with a cast chassis, aimed at high impact applications like schools, universities and other institutional and commercial buildings. The touch bar has reduced projection to cut down on catch hazards in busy corridors, and the chassis carries an antimicrobial coating.
