Von Duprin 100316 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Von Duprin 100316 top plate fit any 55 Series exit device, or only certain models?
The 100316 top plate is made for the 55 Series 5547 and 47WDC devices only. It is a genuine Von Duprin part cut for those two model designations, so if the device on your door is a different 55 Series model, this plate is not the one to order. Read the model stamped on the device chassis before you buy, not just the series.
2) We are servicing a fire-rated exit device. Does the 100316 top plate suit that opening?
The Von Duprin 100316 top plate carries a fire rating value of No, so it is not the part to specify where the opening requires fire-rated hardware. On the Accentra side the top latch components are drawn the same way: both the Accentra 7110/7120 and the 7110F top latch replacement components list a fire rating of No. For a fire-rated opening in a hospital, school, or multi-tenant corridor, confirm the rated service part for the exact device model before ordering any of these.
3) Is the Von Duprin 100316 top plate the same thing as an exit device top latch replacement, or a different part?
They are different components of the exit device. The Von Duprin 100316 is a top plate for the 55 Series 5547/47WDC exit devices, a replacement part supplied for those models. A top latch replacement component, such as the Accentra 7110/7120 Exit Device Top Latch Replacement Component, is the latching mechanism at the top of the door rather than the plate. If the latch is what failed on a 5547/47WDC device, the top plate will not restore it, and neither part crosses between the Von Duprin 55 Series and the Accentra 7110/7120.
4) The 5547/47WDC concealed vertical rod device needs a new top rod, not a plate. What part covers that?
A top plate and a top rod are separate service items. The Von Duprin 100316 is the top plate for the 55 Series 5547/47WDC. For a concealed vertical rod device where the rod itself is the worn item, the equivalent part on the Falcon side is the Falcon 610061 24 Series Monarch Concealed Vertical Top Rod, supplied for the F-25-C and F-25-CWDC exit devices. That Falcon rod is built for the Falcon 245 Series and does not serve a Von Duprin 55 Series device, so match the rod to the device family already hung on the opening.
5) Is the Von Duprin 100316 an OEM part or an aftermarket copy?
Genuine Von Duprin. The 100316 is the factory replacement top plate for the 55 Series 5547/47WDC, so the hole pattern and the fit to the device chassis are the original ones. That matters on a service call: an aftermarket plate that is close but not exact usually shows up as a device that will not sit flat or reassemble cleanly.
6) My exit device is worn out. Should I replace the top plate or the whole device?
If the chassis and the touchbar still work and the damage is to the top plate, the 100316 is a direct replacement part for the 55 Series 5547/47WDC and gets the device back in service without pulling the whole unit off the door. Replace the entire device when the chassis or latching is the problem, or when the opening is fire rated and the existing device is not, since the 100316 is not a fire rated part.
7) What is the difference between the two Accentra top latch replacement components if we are cross-shopping exit device service parts?
They are model-specific to different Accentra devices. The Accentra 7110/7120 Exit Device Top Latch Replacement Component serves the 7110 and 7120 devices, while the Accentra 7110F Exit Device Top Latch Replacement Component is the 7110F part. Both list a fire rating of No. Neither is an alternative to the Von Duprin 100316, which is the top plate for the Von Duprin 55 Series 5547/47WDC devices; exit device service parts are ordered against the device model stamped on the hardware.
8) A pair of doors keeps failing at the top. Is a top plate the fix, or is a mullion the better answer?
Those solve different problems. The Von Duprin 100316 is a replacement top plate for a single 55 Series 5547/47WDC device, a repair for hardware already on the door. If the issue is the pair of doors itself, a mullion is the hardware to look at: the Falcon 4023 Steel Mullion is made for double door exit device applications, and Falcon 525 Aluminum Mullion Stabilizers are the accompanying stabilizer accessory. A mullion changes how the opening is configured; the 100316 restores an existing device.
9) Can a rim cylinder housing or a deadlatch be used in place of the 100316 on a 55 Series device?
No. The Von Duprin 100316 is the top plate for the 55 Series 5547/47WDC exit devices. The Arrow 16RCR-27 SFIC Rim Housing is a 6/7-pin small format interchangeable core rim housing for the Arrow 24/25 Series, a cylinder component, and the Falcon 23981160 is a 2-3/8 inch square corner deadlatch replacement part for the Falcon T Series. Both are latching or keying components for other device families and neither replaces a 55 Series top plate.
10) For an MRO program standardizing exit device service parts across a facility, how does the 100316 compare with the other exit device components we stock?
The Von Duprin 100316 is a Grade 1 commercial top plate for the 55 Series 5547/47WDC, so it is stocked against Von Duprin 55 Series openings specifically. The comparable service components each tie to their own device families: the Accentra 7110/7120 and 7110F top latch components to those Accentra devices, and the Falcon 610061 concealed vertical top rod to the Falcon 245 Series F-25-C and F-25-CWDC. Exit device service parts do not standardize across brands, so a facility program is built by device family, with the top plate, latch, and rod stocked per family.
11) Is a Grade 1 rating on a replacement exit device part actually meaningful?
It is, because a device is only as good as the part you put back into it. The 100316 top plate is a Grade 1 commercial component, which is the heavy duty tier used on high traffic commercial openings. Dropping a lighter part into a Grade 1 device is how a school or hospital door starts failing again a few months after the repair.
12) Is the Von Duprin 100316 top plate suitable for a high traffic school or hospital door?
That is what it is built for. The 100316 is a commercial Grade 1 component for Von Duprin 55 Series 5547/47WDC devices, the class of hardware used on schools, healthcare buildings, offices, retail, and government facilities. The one limit to check first is the door label: it is not a fire rated part, so keep it off labeled openings.
