Von Duprin 33A-3ft Grooved Case Narrow Stile Rim Exit Device for 36" Doors, Grade 1

Heavy-Duty Narrow Stile Panic Exit Hardware for Commercial and Institutional Applications

The Von Duprin 33A-3ft is a professional-grade, grooved case narrow stile rim exit device engineered for 36" single and double doors in demanding commercial environments. Certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3 2014 Grade 1 standards and UL listed for panic exit hardware, this device accommodates door stiles as narrow as 1-3/4" (44mm) and features a one-piece center case cover for streamlined installation and durability. Non-handed for versatile application, the 33A is purpose-built for schools, hospitals, and government facilities where reliable egress performance is essential.

Professional Features & Benefits

  • Narrow Stile Compatibility: Fits door stiles as narrow as 1-3/4" (44mm), making it ideal for aluminum storefront and narrow stile door applications where space is limited.
  • 36" Door Coverage: Sized for 36" doors with a product dimension of 8-3/16" x 1-9/16" x 2-13/32" and a product projection of 3-13/16" for precise, low-profile installation.
  • ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 Certified: Meets ANSI/BHMA A156.3 2014 Grade 1 standards, the highest industry certification, ensuring long-term reliability in high-traffic institutional settings.
  • Comprehensive Certifications: Listed to ANSI/UL 10C (fire-rated configurations), ANSI/UL 305, CAN/ULC-S104 (fire-rated configurations), and CAN/ULC-S132 for broad code compliance.
  • Non-Handed Design: The rim device is non-handed (except when the SS signal switch option is used), simplifying specification and reducing inventory requirements.
  • Grooved Mechanism Case: The distinctive grooved case of the 33A Series provides an architectural design element that differentiates it from the smooth-case 35A, while sharing the same heavy-duty push pad platform.
  • Hex Key Dogging Configuration: Equipped with hex key dogging for straightforward hold-open functionality in appropriate applications.
  • Included Fasteners: Ships with 1-3/4" and 2-1/4" wood/metal door fasteners plus SNB included, supporting a broad range of door preparations.
  • Field-Configurable Retrofit Options: Compatible with CDSI/HDSI security dogging indicators, QEL electronic latch retraction, and electronic switches (RX request-to-exit, LX latchbolt monitoring) for evolving access control needs.
  • ADA and Delayed Egress Upgrades Available: AX option certified to meet 5 lb. force requirements per 2010 ADA (Chapters 404.2.7 and 30934) and 2013 California Building Code (Chapter 11B-309.4); CX CHEXIT option meets NFPA and IBC delayed egress requirements with 15-second hold and nuisance alarm.
