Von Duprin 7827EO 3 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Von Duprin 7827 fit a 1-3/4 inch hollow metal door?
Yes on the thickness, the 7827 is built for 1-3/4 inch doors and that is the only thickness it covers. It is not rated for wood doors, so plan on hollow metal or aluminum. Mounting height comes out at a 39-13/16 inch device centerline from finished floor, and the pushpad assembly projects 3-13/16 inch off the door face, which matters where the door swings into a corridor or against a wall stop.
2) Do I need a mullion to use the 7827 on a pair of doors?
No. A surface vertical rod device like the 7827 latches at the head and at the threshold rather than into the frame jamb, so a pair of doors can be secured without a center mullion and you keep the full clear opening for moving equipment or furniture. If you would rather have a rim device, that is the configuration that needs a removable mullion on a pair.
3) Is the 3 foot Von Duprin 7827 device fire rated?
This one is not. The 7827-3ft as configured is a panic device, not a fire exit device, and it comes with hex key dogging, which is not permitted on a fire door. Von Duprin builds fire rated versions of the 78 Series by adding the -F suffix, and those carry ANSI/UL 10C and CAN/ULC-S104. If the opening is in a rated wall, order the -F version, not this one. Fire rated alternates we carry include the Adams Rite 3100 Series and the TownSteel 9700 Series EF9727.
4) Will the 7827 latch into the strikes already on my door frame?
Not likely without changing them. The 7827 throws its latches 3/4 inch and is designed around its own 299 top strike and 304L bottom strike, both of which are supplied with the device. Surface vertical rod strikes are not interchangeable between brands, so if you are pulling off another manufacturer's SVR device, plan on replacing the head strike and the floor strike along with it.
5) What is the closest fire-rated 36 inch surface vertical rod exit device if the Von Duprin 7827 will not work on a fire door?
The Von Duprin 7827-3ft is a non-fire-rated 36 inch surface vertical rod device. For a labeled opening, the TownSteel 9700 Series EF9727 is a fire-rated 36 inch x 84 inch Grade 1 heavy-duty surface vertical rod device with a wide stile design, and the Sargent 2727 is a Grade 1 fire-rated reversible surface vertical rod device in a wide stile configuration. The Adams Rite 3100 Series 30 inch fire-rated surface vertical rod device is Grade 1 for 1-3/4 inch doors if a 30 inch device suits the leaf.
6) Which narrow stile surface vertical rod exit devices compare to the Von Duprin 7827 on an aluminum storefront door?
The 7827 is a narrow stile surface vertical rod device for 1-3/4 inch doors. Comparable narrow stile options at the same 36 inch size include the Corbin Russwin ED4400, a Grade 1 narrow stile surface vertical rod device for 1-3/4 inch doors that is exit only and accepts trim, and the TownSteel ED3727, a Grade 1 narrow stile 36 inch x 84 inch device. The Falcon 19-V-EO is a Grade 1 narrow stile vertical rod device at 36 inches supplied exit only, and the Adams Rite 8200 Series is a Grade 1 narrow stile life-safety device at 30 inches.
7) Does the Von Duprin 7827 come with the strikes, or do I order those separately?
The strikes ship with it. The 7827 is supplied with a 299 top strike and a 304L bottom strike, so the head and floor latching points are covered out of the box. If you order the device less bottom rod, the bottom strike is not used.
8) Why would I order the 7827 less bottom rod, and what do I give up?
Less bottom rod (LBR) removes the rod and latch that run to the floor. Crews specify it where the floor strike collects dirt, gets hit by carts, or sits in a wet entry, and it takes away a trip point in the opening. You lose the bottom latching point, so security rests on the top latch alone, which is why LBR is usually paired with a doorstop or auxiliary hardware on the inactive leaf. LBR is a yes/no choice when you order.
9) What dogging options does the Von Duprin 78 Series offer, and which should I pick?
Three. Hex key dogging is the default: you hold the pad down and set it with an Allen wrench so the door stays push-pull during business hours. CD cylinder dogging swaps that for a keyed cylinder, which is what most property managers want when they do not hand wrenches out to staff. LD, less dogging, has no hold-open at all and is what you specify on any fire door. There is also an HD-QEL option that combines quiet electric latch retraction with hex dogging on panic devices.
10) Can the Von Duprin 7827 be tied into an access control system?
Yes, and the electrical options are ordered on the device rather than added later. For monitoring there is RX (request to exit), LX (latchbolt monitor), LX-RX combined, RX2 double switch, and WP-RX for wet locations. For remote unlocking, QEL quiet electric latch retraction pulls the latches back so the door is push-pull under card reader control, with QELX offered for AX accessible devices. Alarm kits are available as ALK, RX-ALK, and LXRX-ALK.
11) What trim functions can I get on the Von Duprin 7827, and what does NL mean?
Ten trim functions are offered: EO exit only (no outside trim at all), L lever, L-BE lever with blank escutcheon, L-DT lever with dummy trim, L-NL lever night latch, NL night latch, NL-OP night latch with optional pull, T-BE thumbturn with blank escutcheon, TL thumbturn that unlocks, and DT dummy trim. NL is the one people ask about, it means the outside trim is key-operated only, so a key retracts the latch for entry but the door is otherwise locked from outside. Lever trims are picked from ten designs, 01, 02, 03, 05, 06, 07, 12, 16, 17 and 18.
12) Does the 36 inch Von Duprin 7827 have to match my door width exactly?
No. The 7827 is the 36 inch device and the 78 Series is offered in 3 foot and 4 foot lengths that are field sizeable, so an installer cuts it down on site to suit the leaf instead of ordering a special length. Pick the 3 foot for door widths it covers and the 4 foot for wider leaves, then size it in the field.
13) What other Grade 1 surface vertical rod exit devices could I use instead of the Von Duprin 7827?
Several, depending on what you are matching. Staying inside Allegion, the Falcon 19-V-EO and Falcon 24-V-EO are Grade 1 narrow stile SVR devices for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Falcon 20 and Falcon 25 are the wide stile equivalents. From other houses, the Corbin Russwin ED4400 is a Grade 1 36 inch narrow stile SVR that accepts trim, the ED5400 is the wide stile version, and the Sargent 3727 is a Grade 1 exit-only wide stile device. The TownSteel ED3727 and ED8927 are Grade 1 36 by 84 inch devices that are also rated for wood doors, which the 7827 is not.
14) Is the Von Duprin 7827 heavy duty enough for a warehouse or school entrance?
Yes. The 7827 is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3-2014 Grade 1, the top commercial durability grade, and is also listed to ANSI/UL 305 and CAN/ULC-S132 for panic hardware. It is a commercial-only device with a pushpad style actuator, which takes hand-truck and cart traffic better than a crossbar. If you want a Grade 2 device for a lighter-use interior opening instead, the TownSteel TS5100 and the Dexter ED2000 Series are the Grade 2 SVR options.
15) Is there a lower-grade surface vertical rod exit device than the Von Duprin 7827 for a lighter-traffic opening?
The 7827-3ft is certified ANSI/BHMA Grade 1. Where a Grade 2 device is acceptable, the Dexter ED2000 Series is a Grade 2 surface vertical rod panic device, non-fire-rated, and the TownSteel TS5100 Series is a Grade 2 heavy duty wide stile surface vertical rod device in a 36 inch x 84 inch size. The Design Hardware 2000V is a standard duty surface vertical rod device at 33 inches.
16) Which surface vertical rod exit devices look like the Von Duprin 7827 but will not take lever trim?
The Von Duprin 7827 is offered in trim functions including lever, night latch, thumbturn, dummy trim and exit only. Several comparable devices are catalogued exit only: the Arrow 3700 Series 30 inch Grade 1 wide stile pushpad device, the Falcon 20 Series and Falcon 25 Series, and the Orca OED56 Series 36 inch less bottom rod device are all listed with an exit only function. The Arrow S1150 is supplied as device only, less trim. The Sargent 12-8710 is a dummy function device, so it does not latch at all. If operator trim is required, the Corbin Russwin ED4400 and ED5400 are exit only devices that accept trim, and the ED7400 accepts operator trim.
17) Is there a reversible surface vertical rod exit device if we do not want to stock the Von Duprin 7827 by hand?
The BEST Precision 5201 Series is a 36 inch surface vertical rod exit device described as reversible, and the Sargent 2727 is a reversible Grade 1 fire-rated surface vertical rod device. The Orca OED56 Series 36 inch device is non-handed and comes less bottom rod in an aluminum finish. The Von Duprin 7827-3ft is a 36 inch device with a less bottom rod option as well.
18) What is the difference between the Von Duprin 7827 push pad device and a crossbar surface vertical rod device?
The Von Duprin 7827-3ft uses a push pad style actuator with a 3-13/16 inch projection and a device centerline of 39-13/16 inch from finished floor. The Corbin Russwin ED7400 is a Grade 1 narrow stile crossbar surface vertical rod device for 1-3/4 inch doors that accepts operator trim, while the Sargent 3727 is a Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod device with a standard push bar. Crossbar devices present a horizontal bar across the door rather than a pad, which changes the look and the clear projection into the opening.
19) What is the AX option on Von Duprin exit devices?
AX is Von Duprin's accessible device option, ordered as a yes or no on the 7827. It is specified where the opening has to meet reduced operating force requirements for accessibility. If you take AX and also want electric latch retraction, the matching retraction options are QELX and HD-QELX rather than the standard QEL.
20) Can I match the Von Duprin 7827 to the finishes on the rest of my building's doors?
Ten finishes are offered on the 78 Series: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 619 satin nickel, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 628 aluminum, 643E aged bronze, 710 dark bronze anodized, and 711 flat black. For a fleet of storefront or service openings, 628 aluminum and 626 satin chrome are the usual standards, with 710 and 711 for darker anodized entrances.
