Von Duprin 35AEO 3 US26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I put the Von Duprin 35A on a 2 inch or 2-1/4 inch thick door?
No. The 35A is a single thickness device, specified for 1-3/4 inch doors. For a thicker leaf, the Adams Rite 8800 Series narrow stile rim device lists a 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range, and the SDC S6136 lists 1-3/4 to 2 inches though it is a 4 inch wide stile device. One thing not to misread: the 1-3/4 inch and 2-1/4 inch fasteners packed with the 35A are screw lengths for mounting, not a door thickness range.
2) Can I use the Von Duprin 35A on a pair of doors, or do I need a mullion?
You need the mullion. The 35A is a rim device, so the latch throws into a strike mounted on the frame, and on a pair there has to be a mullion at the center for it to catch. It installs on single doors and on double doors with mullion. If the opening has to stay clear through the middle, move to a vertical rod device, which latches at the head and the sill instead: the Hager 4601 Series 36 inch narrow stile concealed vertical rod device, or the Hager 4501 in wide stile.
3) Do I have to specify handing when I order a Von Duprin 35A?
Non-handed, so the same device covers left hand reverse and right hand reverse openings. The single exception is the SS signal switch option, which makes it handed. For anyone stocking spares across a building with mixed openings, that means one part number on the shelf instead of two.
4) I need key access from outside on my Von Duprin 35A but free egress from inside. Which trim function do I order?
Night latch, NL, or NL-OP if you want the optional pull with it. A night latch trim lets a key retract the latch for entry while the pushpad always allows egress. The full trim range on the 35A: EO exit only with no outside trim, NL and NL-OP night latch, L and L-BE lever, L-DT lever with dummy trim, T and T-BE thumbturn, TL and TL-BE thumbturn and unlocks, and DT dummy trim. BE is the blank escutcheon version of each, for openings where the outside trim carries no cylinder.
5) Will a Von Duprin 35A latch into the rim strike already on my frame?
The 35A throws a 3/4 inch latchbolt into a surface rim strike on the frame or mullion. To reuse an existing strike it has to be a rim strike, positioned at the device centerline of 39-13/16 inches from finished floor, and prepped for that 3/4 inch throw. A strike cut for a mortise or cylindrical lock will not accept a rim device latch, the geometry and the location are both different.
6) What narrow stile rim exit device should be used on a fire rated opening instead of the Von Duprin 35A-3ft?
The Von Duprin 35A-3ft carries a fire rating of No. For a fire rated narrow stile opening, the Adams Rite 3700 Series at 30" is a fire rated Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device with starwheel interlocking, and it is listed as wood door compatible. At 36" the Orca Hardware OED85 Series is a fire rated rim exit device in exit only function, and the Marks USA M9900F at 36" is a fire rated rim exit device in exit only with a panic protector end cap. The Dexter ED1000 Series is available as a Grade 1 fire rated rim exit device as well. Confirm the required device length against the leaf before ordering, since the Adams Rite fire rated narrow stile device is a 30" bar.
7) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to the Von Duprin 35A-3ft narrow stile rim exit device?
Two devices match the Von Duprin 35A-3ft on the specs that matter for a narrow stile opening. The Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device at 36" for 1-3/4" doors, listed as exit only and accepts trim. The Falcon 19-R is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device at 36" for 1-3/4" doors in exit only function. The 35A-3ft is also Grade 1, narrow stile, 36", and specified for 1-3/4" doors, and it is offered across eleven trim functions covering exit only, lever, lever with blank escutcheon, night latch, night latch with optional pull, thumbturn, thumbturn and unlocks, and dummy trim, so one series covers openings that would otherwise be split between the exit only and trimmed versions of a competing line.
8) Which narrow stile rim exit devices are listed for wood doors?
The Von Duprin 35A-3ft is listed as not wood door compatible. Among narrow stile rim devices that are, the Adams Rite 8700 Series at 30" is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device with starwheel interlocking, wood door compatible, with a fire rating of No, and the Adams Rite 3700 Series at 30" is the fire rated Grade 1 narrow stile version, also wood door compatible. Note that the Adams Rite 8800 Series at 30" is not wood door compatible even though it sits in the same narrow stile Grade 1 family, so the series number is what decides it, not the manufacturer.
9) What rim exit device fits a door thicker than 1-3/4 inches?
The Von Duprin 35A-3ft is specified for a 1-3/4" door thickness. Where the leaf is thicker, the Adams Rite 8800 Series at 30" is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device with a door thickness range of 1-3/4" to 2-1/4", and the DORMA 9300 Series at 48" is a Grade 1 heavy duty wide stile rim exit device in exit only with the same 1-3/4" to 2-1/4" range. The SDC S6136 Spectra covers 1-3/4" to 2" on a 4" wide stile, and the Securitron EMB electromechanical exit bar is listed at 2-1/4". Measure the actual leaf thickness before specifying, because a device sized for 1-3/4" will not pick up the through-bolt pattern on a thicker door.
10) Can an SDC MSB550 or PSB560 bar be used in place of a Von Duprin 35A-3ft rim exit device?
No, they solve a different problem. The SDC MSB550 Series at 36" is a mechanical switch bar with electromagnetic lock release, and the SDC SureExit PSB560 Series at 36" is a pressure sense bar with tri-failsafe technology. Both are listed for narrow or wide stile doors and both signal a lock to release rather than operating a latch of their own. The Von Duprin 35A-3ft is a mechanical rim exit device with a 3/4" latch throw that latches into a rim strike, so it holds the door closed by itself. A switch bar needs an electromagnetic lock and its power supply on the opening to do the same job.
11) Is the Hager 4601 concealed vertical rod device a substitute for the Von Duprin 35A-3ft?
It is not a like-for-like swap. The Hager 4601 Series at 36" is a Grade 1 concealed vertical rod narrow stile exit device, and the Hager 4501 Series at 36" is the Grade 1 concealed vertical rod version with a wide stile pushpad. Concealed vertical rod devices latch through rods routed inside the door at the head and sill, which means door prep at top and bottom plus a top strike. The Von Duprin 35A-3ft is a rim device that latches into a strike on the frame or mullion, and it ships with a 1439 roller strike or a 299 strike for hollow metal and wood doors. The two match on stile type and grade but not on door prep, so they are not interchangeable once a door is already cut.
12) What are the alternatives to the Von Duprin 35A-3ft on a 42 inch or 48 inch leaf?
The Von Duprin 35A-3ft is a 36" device. For a 42" narrow stile opening, the Falcon 1590EO and the Falcon 1790EO are both Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit devices at 42" in exit only for 1-3/4" doors. At 48", the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 crossbar rim exit device for 1-3/4" wide stile doors, the DORMA 9300 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty wide stile device in exit only, and the Sargent 2828 is a Grade 1 reversible rim exit device rated for a 48" minimum door width. The Dexter ED1000 Series is also offered as a 4 ft Grade 1 rim exit device.
13) Which comparable rim exit devices come electrified for access control the way the Von Duprin 35A does with QEL, RX and LX?
The Von Duprin 35A-3ft is field configurable with QEL quiet electric latch retraction and RX request to exit and LX latchbolt monitoring switches. Comparable electrified devices include the Sargent 12-8810, a fire rated Grade 1 wide stile rim device supplied with RX and motorized electric latch retraction and lever trim; the SDC S6136 Spectra, a 36" electrified architectural rim exit device for a 4" wide stile and 1-3/4" to 2" doors; and the Dormakaba E2103, a 36" electrified rim device with 4908A trim in classroom function. The Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar for 2-1/4" doors. Of these, the 35A-3ft is the narrow stile option, so on an aluminum door with a 1-3/4" stile the wide stile electrified devices will not land on the rail.
14) Can I substitute a wide stile rim exit device on a narrow stile aluminum door?
No, and it is the most common mis-order on storefront openings. A wide stile device needs more stile than a storefront door has; the Von Duprin 35A is built to land on a 1-3/4 inch stile. The Corbin Russwin ED5200, BEST Precision 2101, Detex 10 Advantex, and TownSteel ED1100 are all 36 inch rim devices, and all four are wide stile, so their mounting will not fit an aluminum storefront stile. On hollow metal doors with a wide stile, any of them is a candidate.
15) Will a Von Duprin 35A line up with the exit devices already installed on my other doors?
Mounting centerline is 39-13/16 inches from finished floor, which is the number to check against what is on the adjacent leaves so the push bars read level across a bank of doors. The device projects 3-13/16 inches off the door face, worth knowing in a tight vestibule or where a pair swings toward each other. Stated product dimension is 8-3/16 x 1-9/16 x 2-13/32 inches.
16) What is the difference between the Von Duprin 33A and the 35A?
The case is what separates them. The 35A has a smooth mechanism case and a one-piece center case cover; the 33A is the grooved case version. Both are 33/35 Series, and the 3 ft size carries a single model designation, 33A/35A-3', covering the two case styles. Choose on appearance and on what is already installed elsewhere in the building.
17) Can I dog the Von Duprin 35A open during business hours?
Yes. Hex key dogging is the standard configuration: a hex wrench holds the pushpad depressed and the latch retracted, so the door is push/pull through the day where code permits it. If you want staff to be able to tell at a glance whether a door has been left dogged, the 35A takes CDSI and HDSI security dogging indicators as field-configurable options.
18) Can the Von Duprin 35A be tied into a card reader or access control system?
Yes, and through field-configurable options rather than a different device. QEL electronic latch retraction pulls the latch on a signal, so a reader or a time schedule can unlock the opening. RX gives you a request to exit signal when the pushpad is used, and LX monitors latchbolt position. Worth flagging for the integrator: the SS signal switch option is the one condition that makes an otherwise non-handed 35A handed.
19) Does the Von Duprin 35A meet the 5 pound ADA operating force requirement?
In AX configuration it does. The 35A is upgradeable to AX, certified to meet the 5 lb force requirement per 2010 ADA Chapters 404.2.7 and 2013 California Building Code Chapter 11B-309.4. That is an upgrade, not the base device, so if the drawing or the accessibility spec calls out the 5 lb operating force, AX has to be specified on the order.
20) I need delayed egress on a stairwell or a retail back door. Can the Von Duprin 35A do that?
The 35A upgrades to CX CHEXIT configuration for delayed egress, with a 15 second delay and a nuisance alarm, meeting NFPA and IBC delayed egress requirements. Like the AX accessibility upgrade, it is a configuration you specify when ordering rather than something added to a standard device later on the job.
21) Is the Von Duprin 35A heavy duty enough for a school or hospital main exit?
Grade 1 to ANSI/BHMA A156.3 2014, UL listed for panic exit hardware and listed to ANSI/UL 305, with CAN/ULC-S132 for Canadian projects. Grade 1 is the top of the three ANSI/BHMA durability grades for exit devices. It is commercial hardware, and the openings it is built for are schools and universities, hospitals and clinics, government buildings, offices, industrial facilities, retail, and multi-tenant residential.
22) What other narrow stile rim exit devices are comparable to the Von Duprin 35A?
Several, depending on what you need out of the trim. Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a Grade 1 narrow stile 36 inch rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors, exit only or accepting trim. Falcon 19-R is Grade 1 narrow stile 36 inch, exit only, 1-3/4 inch door. Arrow 4800 Series is a 36 inch narrow stile exit only device for 1-3/4 inch doors. BEST 2401 is narrow stile, non-handed, exit only. Detex 40 Advantex is Grade 1 extra heavy duty narrow stile. Adams Rite 8700 and 8800 are Grade 1 narrow stile with starwheel interlocking. Where the 35A pulls ahead is breadth: eleven trim functions from exit only through lever, thumbturn and night latch, plus the electrified and dogging options.
23) What rim exit device covers an opening narrower than the 36 inch Von Duprin 35A-3ft?
The Von Duprin 35A-3ft is a 36" device. On a narrower leaf, Adams Rite offers three 30" narrow stile rim devices: the 8700 Series and the 8800 Series, both Grade 1 with a fire rating of No, and the fire rated 3700 Series, also Grade 1. Design Hardware splits the difference at 33" with the 1000R heavy duty rim device and the 2000R standard duty wide stile rim device, both with hex key dogging like the 35A-3ft.
24) What is the wide stile counterpart when the door has a wide stile rather than a 1-3/4 inch narrow stile?
The Von Duprin 35A-3ft is built for narrow stile doors. Where the leaf has a wide stile, the Corbin Russwin ED5200 is a Grade 1 wide stile rim exit device at 36" for 1-3/4" doors, listed as exit only and accepts trim. The TownSteel ED1100 at 36" is a Grade 1 heavy duty wide stile panic rim device, the Detex 10 Advantex at 36" is an extra heavy duty Grade 1 wide stile rim device, and the BEST Precision 2101 Series at 36" is a wide stile rim exit device. The DORMA 8300 Series is a Grade 1 wide stile panic rim device as well.
25) Which other rim exit devices offer hex key dogging like the Von Duprin 35A?
The Von Duprin 35A-3ft ships with hex key dogging and can also be ordered with CD cylinder dogging or the CDSI and HDSI security dogging indicators. Among comparable devices, the Stanley Security QED200 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim exit device with hex key dogging, which makes it the closest match on both stile type and dogging. The Design Hardware 1000R at 33" is a heavy duty rim device with hex key dogging, and the Design Hardware 2000R at 33" is the standard duty wide stile version with hex key dogging. Dogging matters where the opening is held in a push-pull state during business hours, so confirm the local authority permits it before specifying.
26) What are the options for a night latch function on a narrow stile door besides the Von Duprin 35A NL?
The Von Duprin 35A-3ft is offered in NL night latch and NL-OP night latch with optional pull trim functions. The closest cross-brand match is the Sargent 8504, a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device in night latch function. On a wide stile leaf, the Detex V4003A/03AN is a Grade 1 wide stile rim exit device supplied with night latch trim. Night latch is the function to specify when the outside pull needs to release the latch with a key and stay locked otherwise, which is the usual arrangement on a rear service door.
27) What should be specified when the drawing calls for a crossbar rather than a push pad exit device?
The Von Duprin 35A-3ft is a push pad device. Where the specification calls for a crossbar, the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 crossbar rim exit device at 48" for 1-3/4" wide stile doors, and the CRL Jackson 1095 Series is a 48" crossbar rim panic exit device for wide stile doors in exit only. The CRL Jackson 1095P is the same series in a paddle configuration. Crossbar devices are wide stile products in this set, so a 1-3/4" narrow stile aluminum door will not accept them.
28) What is available for an opening that takes heavier abuse than a standard Grade 1 rim device?
The Von Duprin 35A-3ft is ANSI/BHMA A156.3 Grade 1. Two Detex Advantex devices carry an extra heavy duty rating on top of Grade 1: the Detex 40 Series is an extra heavy duty Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device, which is the one that matches the 35A-3ft on stile type, and the Detex 10 Series at 36" is the extra heavy duty Grade 1 wide stile version. The Detex 00 Series is the super heavy duty wide stile dummy device for the inactive leaf of a pair, which pairs with the DT dummy trim function offered on the 35A.
29) Is there a standard duty or Grade 2 alternative for a low traffic opening instead of the Grade 1 Von Duprin 35A-3ft?
The Von Duprin 35A-3ft is Grade 1 and specified as commercial. For openings where a lighter duty device suits, the Cal-Royal 5000 at 36" is a heavy duty Grade 2 rim exit device with a touch bar, and the Cal-Royal 5500 at 48" is the heavy duty Grade 2 push bar version. The Hager 4701 Series at 36" is a standard duty rim exit device with Grade 1 BHMA certification, and the Design Hardware 2000R at 33" is a standard duty wide stile rim device with hex key dogging. Institutional and government specifications commonly require Grade 1, so check the spec before dropping to a Grade 2 device.
30) What fasteners come with the Von Duprin 35A, or do I need to supply my own?
Both 1-3/4 inch and 2-1/4 inch wood/metal door fasteners ship with the device, plus SNB for through bolting. The two screw lengths cover the mounting conditions you run into on a 1-3/4 inch door. The trim function is the piece you still have to decide at order time, from exit only right through lever, thumbturn, night latch, and dummy.
31) What finishes does the Von Duprin 35A come in to match the rest of the hardware in my building?
Ten finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 628 aluminum, 643E aged bronze, 710 dark bronze anodized, and 711 flat black. On existing commercial work the two that usually match are 628 aluminum on storefront and 626 satin chrome on hollow metal; 710 dark bronze anodized is the one to check against bronze anodized storefront framing.
