Von Duprin 5547WDC-4ft Concealed Vertical Rod Exit Device for 4ft Narrow Stile Wood Doors
Classic Crossbar Design with Concealed Vertical Rod Technology for Wood Door Applications
The Von Duprin 5547WDC-4ft is a 4-foot (48") Concealed Vertical Rod Exit Device engineered for single or double wood door applications requiring a narrow stile crossbar solution. Designed to fit door stiles as narrow as 4" (102 mm), this device accommodates 1-3/4" thick doors and delivers a 1/2" latch throw with a 3-3/4" product projection. Certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3, 2008 Grade 1 standards and UL rated, the 5547WDC is part of Von Duprin's 55 Series — a narrow stile crossbar line favored in retro-inspired architecture and historical buildings. The device is field reversible for door hand direction and features Hex Key Dogging for convenient hold-open functionality.
