Von Duprin 050654 US26 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Which Von Duprin exit devices does the 050654 top rod kit fit?
The 050654 one piece top rod kit is made for Von Duprin 3527A, 9827 and 9857 vertical rod exit devices, all within the 35/98 Series family. It is a genuine Von Duprin rod, so it matches the factory rod geometry on those devices. If your device is a rim or mortise exit device rather than a vertical rod type, no top rod applies at all.
2) Is the Von Duprin 050654 top rod kit fire rated?
No. The 050654 top rod kit carries a Fire Rating of No, so it is for non-rated vertical rod openings. On a labeled fire door assembly the rod is part of the listed device, and you need the fire-rated rod called out for that specific device rather than this one.
3) My concealed vertical rod device needs a top rod. Is this the right part?
Not necessarily. The 050654 is the top rod kit for Von Duprin 3527A, 9827 and 9857 devices, and rods are not interchangeable across brands or between surface and concealed applications. For a Falcon concealed vertical rod device, the corresponding part is the Falcon 610061 24 Series Monarch concealed vertical top rod for F-25-C and F-25-CWDC devices. Identify the device model stamped on the chassis before ordering a rod.
4) My exit device is not latching at the top - do I need a new rod or a new top latch?
A rod kit and a top latch are different repairs. The Von Duprin 050654 is the one piece top rod itself, supplied at 10 feet for field cutting to the door height, and it addresses a bent, damaged or wrong-length rod. If the rod travels correctly but the latch bolt will not hold, the replacement is the latch assembly instead - Accentra offers top latch replacement components under 60-7010-0049-999 for 7110/7120 devices and 60-7010-0050-999 for the 7110F. Those are Accentra parts and fit Accentra devices, not Von Duprin.
5) What finishes does the Von Duprin 050654 top rod come in?
Eight finishes: 605 bright brass, 612 satin bronze, 619 satin nickel, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 643E aged bronze, 710 dark bronze and 711 black. Match the rod to the finish on the existing device, since a surface top rod is visible on the door face. 626 satin chrome is the most common on commercial 98 Series hardware.
6) Can I use a mullion instead of replacing the vertical rods on my pair of doors?
That is a real fork in the road. A vertical rod device latches at the head and threshold, so the pair works with no center post and the opening stays clear. If you would rather convert to rim devices, a removable mullion carries the strikes instead, and ZenSupply stocks the Falcon 4023 steel mullion for double door exit device applications along with the Falcon 525 aluminum mullion stabilizers. Converting means new devices and new strike prep, so replacing the 050654 top rod is the lower labor path if the existing vertical rod devices are sound.
7) Is the 050654 the whole device or just a replacement part?
Just the top rod. It is an installation accessory within the exit device parts family, supplied as a one-piece rod kit, so it assumes you already have a working 3527A, 9827 or 9857 device on the door. Worn top latches, strikes or bottom rods are separate parts.
8) I have a pair of doors and want to avoid vertical rods entirely - what is the alternative?
A removable mullion lets you run rim exit devices on a double door opening instead of vertical rod devices, so there is no top rod to cut, align or maintain. The Falcon 4023 is a steel mullion for double door exit device applications, and the Falcon 525 aluminum mullion stabilizers support exit device mullion installs. The Von Duprin 050654 one piece top rod kit is the right part only if you are staying with the vertical rod devices already hung - specifically 3527A, 9827 and 9857 series.
9) Can I use this rod kit on a fire rated opening?
The Von Duprin 050654 one piece top rod kit carries a fire rating value of No, so treat it as a non-rated commercial installation accessory. The Accentra top latch replacement components 60-7010-0049-999 and 60-7010-0050-999 also carry a fire rating of No. On a labeled fire door, the rod and latch components must match the device manufacturer's fire listing for that exact device, so confirm the labeled assembly before ordering any of these.
10) What looks like a substitute for this top rod kit but is not?
Two things get ordered by mistake. A deadlatch such as the Falcon 23981160, a 2-3/8 inch square corner deadlatch replacement part for T Series, is a latch component and does nothing for vertical rod travel. An SFIC rim housing such as the Arrow 16RCR-27, a 6/7-pin SFIC rim housing in the 24/25 Series, is cylinder hardware for keyed outside access. The Von Duprin 050654 is the vertical top rod itself for 3527A, 9827 and 9857 series devices.
11) Is this top rod kit rated for high traffic commercial doors?
It is a Grade 1 commercial component, which is the heaviest duty level in the ANSI/BHMA classification and the level specified for schools, hospitals, offices and other high traffic openings. It is classified for commercial use, not residential.
12) Why order a one-piece top rod rather than a sectional one?
A single-piece rod removes the splice, so there is no joint to loosen or fall out of adjustment and the top latch timing stays consistent once set. The tradeoff is that you are handling a 10 foot stick on site and cutting it to the opening.
13) Does the finish of the rod need to match the rest of my exit device hardware?
On a surface vertical rod device the rod is visible, so finish matching matters. The Von Duprin 050654 one piece top rod kit is offered in 626 satin chrome, 625 bright chrome, 605 bright brass, 612 satin bronze, 619 satin nickel, 643E aged bronze, 710 dark bronze and 711 black, which lets you match the device chassis already on the door. A concealed rod such as the Falcon 610061 for F-25-C and F-25-CWDC devices sits inside the door, where appearance is not a factor.
