Von Duprin 109361 US28 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Von Duprin 109361 top vertical rod fit my 2227 exit device?
The 109361 is the top vertical rod for the Von Duprin 22 Series 2227 surface vertical rod device, so it drops into that device without modification. It is a single component, not the whole device: if the bottom rod, latch, or chassis is also worn, those are ordered separately. On a 22 Series device the top rod is what throws the latch into the head strike, so this is the part to order when the door stops latching at the top but the pushbar and bottom latch still work.
2) Can I use the Von Duprin 109361 rod on a fire rated exit device?
No. The 109361 top vertical rod is carried as a non fire rated component, so it is not the part for a fire rated opening. On a labeled door, replacing a rod with a component that is not fire rated puts the assembly outside its listing, and the rod for a fire rated 22 Series device is a different part. Use it on standard, non labeled commercial openings.
3) What is the equivalent top vertical rod for a Falcon concealed vertical rod exit device instead of the Von Duprin 109361?
The Von Duprin 109361 is the top vertical rod for the 22 Series 2227 device. On the Falcon side, the comparable top rod is the Falcon 610061 24 Series Monarch concealed vertical top rod, which is built for the F-25-C and F-25-CWDC exit devices. The two are not interchangeable with each other: each rod is cut and drilled for its own device family, so match the rod to the device chassis already hanging on the door rather than to the door itself.
4) What finishes does the Von Duprin 109361 top vertical rod come in?
Two finishes: 695 dark bronze and 628 aluminum. Those are the standard architectural finishes that match a 22 Series device, so pick the one already on the door. On a surface vertical rod the rod is visible for the full height of the door face, so a mismatched finish shows immediately, unlike a concealed component.
5) Is the Von Duprin 22 Series 2227 rod Grade 1?
Grade 1, and rated for commercial use. That matters on replacement parts because a 22 Series device installed on a school corridor or an office stair door sees heavy cycle counts, and a Grade 1 component keeps the repaired device at the same duty level as the original build rather than downgrading it.
6) Do I need to re-prep the door to install a replacement top vertical rod on a Von Duprin 22 Series device?
No new prep is needed when you are replacing a rod on a device that is already mounted, since the rod runs on the existing device and strike locations. If you are doing a fresh 22 Series install or moving a device, Von Duprin publishes separate template indexes for hollow metal doors and for wood doors, plus template indexes for the trims and strikes on each, and those give the prep dimensions for the opening.
7) My vertical rod device on a pair of doors keeps going out of adjustment. Should I replace the rod or switch to a rim device and mullion?
Both are real options. Replacing the top rod on the 22 Series 2227 keeps the pair free swinging with no center post, which is what you want for moving carts, gurneys, or stock through the opening. If the doors are constantly out of adjustment and a center post is acceptable, a removable mullion with rim devices takes the latching off the door and into the frame; the Falcon 4023 steel mullion is a double door mullion for exit device applications, and Falcon 525 aluminum mullion stabilizers go with that approach. Switching means changing the devices too, not just the rod.
8) The 22 Series top vertical rod is not fire rated. Which comparable replacement part is intended for a fire rated device?
The Accentra 60-7010-0050-999 top latch is the component for the 7110F device, the F designating the fire rated version of that exit device family; its non-fire counterpart, the 60-7010-0049-999, serves the 7110/7120. The Von Duprin 109361 top vertical rod carries a Fire Rating of No, matching a non-labeled 22 Series 2227 opening. On a labeled opening, the replacement part has to come from the fire rated device line, since the label follows the whole assembly.
9) We keep breaking vertical rods on a pair of doors. What can we use instead of vertical rod devices?
Convert the pair to rim exit devices with a removable mullion and the vertical rods come out of the equation entirely. The Falcon 4023 is a steel mullion for double door exit device applications, and the Falcon 525 aluminum mullion stabilizers are the accessory that steadies a mullion in service. That route replaces the devices, not just the rod, so it is a project decision rather than a repair; the Von Duprin 109361 top vertical rod is the fix when the existing 22 Series 2227 device stays.
10) Our exit device latches but the top of the door is not securing. Is the rod the right part, or the latch?
Two different parts sit behind that symptom. The Von Duprin 109361 is the top vertical rod on the 22 Series 2227, the linkage that carries motion from the push bar to the head of the door. The latch itself is a separate replacement item in other device families, such as the Accentra 60-7010-0049-999 top latch for the 7110/7120 or the Falcon 23981160 T Series 2-3/8 inch square corner deadlatch. If the rod moves and the latch does not retract or project, the latch is the failed piece; if the rod is bent, disconnected, or out of adjustment, the rod is.
11) Can I repair a Von Duprin 22 Series exit device instead of replacing the whole unit?
Yes, the top vertical rod is sold on its own as a replacement part, so a worn or bent rod on a 2227 gets swapped without pulling the device off the door. That keeps the opening in service and avoids re-prepping the door. Accentra sells the equivalent idea on its own devices, with top latch replacement components for the 7110/7120, but those parts belong to Accentra devices, not to a Von Duprin 22 Series.
12) Will an Arrow 16RCR-27 rim housing work with a Von Duprin 22 Series vertical rod device?
No, and it answers a different question. The Arrow 16RCR-27 is a 6/7-pin SFIC rim housing for the Arrow 24/25 Series, a cylinder component for keyed outside access. The Von Duprin 109361 is the top vertical rod for the 22 Series 2227, a mechanical linkage inside the device. A rod replacement does not change keying, and a cylinder housing does not restore vertical rod latching.
13) For standardizing exit device parts across a facility, how does the Von Duprin 109361 compare to the Falcon 610061?
Both are top vertical rods, but they commit a facility to different device families. The Von Duprin 109361 is Grade 1 and matched to the 22 Series 2227, and it is stocked in 695 dark bronze and 628 aluminum. The Falcon 610061 is a 245 Series Monarch concealed vertical top rod for F-25-C and F-25-CWDC devices. Standardizing means picking the device family first; the rod inventory follows from that choice, and mixing families means carrying two rod part numbers.
