PDQ 429020626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What door height does the PDQ 429020 vertical rod cover?
The 429020 is cut for a 7 foot 0 inch door, which is the standard commercial opening height. For doors taller than 7 feet you need a rod extension rather than this rod on its own, and PDQ's extensions carry their own part numbers (429021, 429023, 429024).
2) Can I use a PDQ rod extension on a fire rated exit device?
No. The PDQ vertical rod extensions 429021, 429023 and 429024, and the bottom rod, are not approved for fire rated devices. On a fire rated 4200V opening taller than 7 feet, do not solve it with an extension. The fire and panic rated items in the 4200 parts range are the rim and SVR top and bottom strikes.
3) What finishes does the PDQ 429020 top vertical rod come in?
Six: 626 satin chrome, 630 satin stainless steel, 689 aluminum, 693 black, 695 duro bronze and 696 gold. 626 and 630 are plated, the 689, 693, 695 and 696 rods are painted. Match the rod to the finish of the device already on the door, the finish code is the suffix on the part number, so a black rod orders as 429020693.
4) Do I need to order a strike separately when replacing a PDQ top vertical rod?
The 429020 is the rod only. If the head strike is worn or the prep is changing, the SVR top and bottom strikes are separate parts in the PDQ 4200 range and they ship with two 1/16 inch shims for adjusting rod engagement. If the existing strike is sound, the rod alone finishes the repair.
5) Is the PDQ 429020 rod suitable for a commercial opening or is it light residential hardware?
Commercial door hardware. The 429020 rod is a 4200 Series exit device component, so it belongs on panic and fire exit openings, not on residential doors.
