Von Duprin 105952 26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Von Duprin 105952 rod guide package fit a 3327A or 3527A exit device?
Yes. The 105952 rod guide package is the Von Duprin part for 33 and 35 Series exit devices, and the package is shown as the 33/3527A rod guide. If your device tag reads 3327A, 3327, 3527A or 3527, this is the guide set for it. It will not fit Von Duprin 98/99, 22 or 35A-series-unrelated devices, and it is not a Falcon or Accentra part.
2) What does a rod guide do on a Von Duprin 33/35 surface vertical rod exit device, and how do I know mine needs replacing?
On a 3327A/3527A surface vertical rod device the guides are the brackets that hold the top and bottom rods flat against the door and keep them in line as the pushpad strokes them. When a guide is bent, loose or missing, the rod flexes and binds, the top latch stops fully retracting or fails to re-latch at the head, and the pad feels gritty or sticks down. Replacing the guides restores rod alignment; it does not fix a worn latch or a mis-set strike.
3) Is the Falcon 610061 top rod a substitute for the Von Duprin 105952 rod guide?
No. The Von Duprin 105952 is a rod guide package for 33/35 Series exit devices, the bracket hardware that holds the vertical rod in alignment as it travels. The Falcon 610061 is a Monarch concealed vertical top rod for F-25-C and F-25-CWDC exit devices, which is the rod itself. They are different pieces of a vertical rod assembly, and the Falcon part is built to the Falcon 245 Series, not to Von Duprin 33/35 geometry. If a rod is bent or the wrong length, the 610061 is the rod-side part for a Falcon Monarch device; if the rod is fine but wandering or rattling in its travel, the 105952 rod guide is the Von Duprin part.
4) My double doors sag out of alignment and the exit device will not latch. Do I need a rod guide or a mullion?
Those solve different problems. The Von Duprin 105952 rod guide package addresses rod alignment inside a single 33 or 35 Series device, keeping the vertical rod running true to its latch point. If the trouble is a pair of doors with no fixed strike point between them, the part that addresses the opening is a mullion: the Falcon 4023 is a steel mullion for double door exit device applications, and the Falcon 525 aluminum mullion stabilizers are exit device accessories for mullion installations. Diagnose at the opening first. A rod that no longer tracks straight in one leaf is rod guide work; a pair with nothing solid to latch against in the middle is mullion work.
5) Will an Accentra 7110 top latch component work in place of a Von Duprin rod guide?
No. The Accentra 60-7010-0049-999 is a top latch replacement component for Accentra 7110 and 7120 exit devices, and the 60-7010-0050-999 is the top latch component for the 7110F. Those are the latching mechanism at the head of the door. The Von Duprin 105952 rod guide package is the guide hardware for Von Duprin 33 and 35 Series devices and does not latch anything. If the top latch is not throwing or retracting on an Accentra 7110 series device, the Accentra top latch component is the part; on a Von Duprin 33 or 35, a rod that binds or drifts in its channel is what the 105952 corrects.
6) What finishes does the Von Duprin 105952 rod guide come in, and do I have to match the finish on my exit device?
Seven finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 626 satin chrome, 628 aluminum, 710 dark bronze and 711 black. The guides sit out on the face of the door beside the rods, so on a visible opening order the code that matches the device (628 and 711 cover most aluminum storefront and dark-painted hollow metal doors). Function is the same across all seven, so on a back-of-house door pick whatever matches closest.
7) Can I use the Von Duprin 105952 rod guide on a fire rated exit door assembly?
The 105952 rod guide package is carried as a non fire rated part, so do not treat it as a listed component on a labeled fire door. Fire rated 33/35 openings use fire-labeled devices and less-bottom-rod arrangements, and swapping in a non-rated component can void the label on the assembly. For a standard panic (non-labeled) egress door, the guides are the correct replacement.
8) My exit device rods bind but the top latch is also worn. Do I need more than the rod guide package?
Guides only correct rod alignment. If the top latch itself is chewed up or won't hold, that's a separate replacement component, and ZenSupply carries top latch replacement parts for other brands' devices as well, for example the Accentra 7110/7120 exit device top latch component for Accentra hardware. Diagnose in this order: check the guides for bend or looseness, stroke the rods by hand with the pad depressed to see if they move freely, then look at the latch and the head strike. Replacing guides on a door whose real fault is a worn latch will not fix the re-latching problem.
9) Should I repair my old 33/35 vertical rod device with guides, or move the pair of doors to rim devices and a mullion?
If the vertical rod device is otherwise sound, replacing worn guides is the cheaper fix and keeps the clear opening free, which is the whole reason a surface vertical rod device is used on a pair: it latches at the head and the threshold, so there's no center mullion in the way of moving carts, gurneys or freight. If you want the simpler and more serviceable arrangement and can live with a post in the middle of the opening, rim devices with a removable mullion, such as the Falcon 4023 steel mullion for double door exit device applications, is the alternative. The 105952 guides only make sense on the first path.
10) What Falcon part goes with a vertical rod device the way a rod guide does?
The closest Falcon counterpart on the rod side of a vertical rod exit device is the Falcon 610061, a 245 Series Monarch concealed vertical top rod for F-25-C and F-25-CWDC devices. The Von Duprin 105952 rod guide package is the alignment hardware for Von Duprin 33 and 35 Series devices and is a Grade 1 commercial replacement part. Order by the device on the door: a Von Duprin 33 or 35 takes Von Duprin rod hardware, and a Falcon Monarch F-25-C takes the Falcon rod. Vertical rod parts are device-specific and do not cross between manufacturers.
11) What is the difference between a Von Duprin 105952 rod guide and a Falcon T Series deadlatch part?
The Falcon 23981160 is a 2-3/8 inch square corner deadlatch replacement part for the Falcon T Series, so it works at the door edge where the latch enters the frame. The Von Duprin 105952 is a rod guide package for 33 and 35 Series exit devices, working along the vertical rod path rather than at the latch face. A square corner deadlatch part is chosen by backset and corner shape to match the existing door prep; the rod guide is chosen by exit device series. They serve different hardware and are not interchangeable in either direction.
12) Does an Arrow 16RCR-27 rim housing have anything to do with a rod guide package?
No. The Arrow 16RCR-27 is a small format interchangeable core rim housing for 6 and 7 pin cores in the Arrow 24/25 Series, so it is keying and cylinder hardware for the trim side of a rim exit device. The Von Duprin 105952 rod guide package is mechanical alignment hardware inside a 33 or 35 Series device. A locksmith rekeying or converting an opening to SFIC reaches for the rim housing; a locksmith chasing a rod that binds during travel reaches for the rod guide. Buying one when the job calls for the other leaves the fault in place.
13) Is the Von Duprin 105952 rod guide tough enough for a high traffic commercial door?
It's a Grade 1 commercial part, carried for commercial use rather than residential, which is the level of duty a school corridor, hospital stairwell or retail rear exit needs. That matters on rod guides specifically because they take the side load every time the pad is hit, and a light-duty guide is what deforms first on a door that cycles all day.
14) Can a maintenance tech install the Von Duprin 105952 rod guides, or does it take a locksmith?
Guide replacement on a 33/3527A device is a mechanical swap on the door face and is within reach of a competent in-house maintenance tech, but the rods have to be re-timed so the top latch fully retracts and re-latches after the guides go back on. If the device is on a labeled or heavily used egress opening, use someone who knows Von Duprin 33/35 hardware, because a device that does not re-latch is an egress and security problem rather than a cosmetic one.
