Von Duprin 050473 US26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Von Duprin 050473 top latch kit actually replace on an 8827 device?
The 050473 is the top latch assembly plus its cover for Von Duprin 8827 surface vertical rod exit devices. On an 8827 the top rod drives a latch that catches at the head of the frame, so this is the part you order when the head latch is worn, damaged, or missing rather than replacing the whole device. It is a replacement part, not a complete exit device, so the pushbar, rods, and bottom hardware stay as they are.
2) Do I need to know the door handing before ordering the 050473 top latch kit?
No. The 050473 top latch kit is non-handed, so the same kit goes on a left hand or right hand door with no separate part number to specify. For a property manager stocking spares across a building, that means one part covers every 8827 opening regardless of swing.
3) Will this top latch kit work on an 8827 with electric latch retraction or request-to-exit switches?
It will. The 050473 top latch is built to work with both mechanical and electronic 8827 configurations, including electrified latch retraction and the RX, LX, and SS switch options. Security integrators servicing a monitored opening can swap the head latch without disturbing the switch or EL wiring in the device.
4) My vertical rod device has rods hidden inside the door. Is this the right top latch?
Probably not. The 050473 is for the 8827, a surface vertical rod device where the rods run on the face of the door. If your rods are concealed inside the door, you need a concealed vertical rod top latch or rod instead, such as the Falcon 610061 top rod for the 24 Series Monarch F-25-C and F-25-CWDC concealed vertical rod devices. Look at the door face before ordering: exposed rods and covers mean surface mounted.
5) What is the equivalent top latch replacement part for an Accentra exit device instead of the Von Duprin 050473?
The Von Duprin 050473 top latch kit with cover is built for Von Duprin 8827 series exit devices and is not a cross-brand part. On an Accentra device, the corresponding component is the Accentra 7110/7120 exit device top latch replacement component (60-7010-0049-999), which serves the 7110 and 7120 devices. Match the replacement to the device family already on the door: the 8827 kit goes on 8827 hardware, the Accentra component goes on Accentra 7110/7120 hardware.
6) My 8827 concealed vertical rod device latches at the top but the rod is bent - do I need the 050473 top latch kit?
No. The 050473 is the top latch kit with cover, the latch assembly itself, for Von Duprin 8827 series devices. A damaged vertical rod is a different part. The rod counterpart in a concealed vertical rod device is an item like the Falcon 610061 24 Series Monarch concealed vertical top rod for F-25-C and F-25-CWDC exit devices, in the 245 Series - that is the rod, not the latch. Order by which of the two failed, and by the device series stamped on the chassis.
7) What finishes does the Von Duprin 050473 top latch kit come in?
Three: US10B dark oxidized satin bronze oil rubbed, US26D satin chrome, and US4 satin brass. Match the finish to the device already on the door, since the cover is visible at the head of the opening. US10B is the one to pick when the rest of the trim on the building is oil rubbed bronze.
8) Is the 050473 latch kit rated for a high traffic commercial opening?
Grade 1, the commercial heavy duty tier, with bronze construction. That is the rating institutional buyers want on a school, hospital, or government corridor door where the exit device cycles constantly. It is a commercial part, not a residential one.
9) What do I order if the pair of doors will not stay secure at the top - the top latch kit or a mullion?
They solve different problems. The Von Duprin 050473 top latch kit with cover replaces the top latching assembly on a Von Duprin 8827 series device, so it is the answer when the device itself no longer latches at the head. If the double door opening needs a fixed vertical member to strike against instead, that is a mullion, such as the Falcon 4023 steel mullion for double door exit device applications, with Falcon 525 aluminum mullion stabilizers as the related mullion accessory. Diagnose whether the device latch failed or the opening lacks a strike point before ordering.
10) I need a top latch component for a fire rated opening - how do the Accentra parts compare to the Von Duprin 8827 kit?
The Accentra top latch replacement components, both the 7110/7120 part (60-7010-0049-999) and the 7110F part (60-7010-0050-999), are carried with a fire rating of No. The Von Duprin 050473 top latch kit with cover is a Grade 1 commercial component for Von Duprin 8827 series devices. On a labeled opening, confirm the complete device assembly on the door carries the listing your inspector requires, since the label follows the device and frame assembly rather than a single replacement component.
11) Does the 050473 kit include the cover, or do I order that separately?
The cover is part of the kit. You get the top latch and its cover in one part number, so there is no second line item for the trim piece at the head of the device. Choose the finish so the cover matches the device.
12) Is an Arrow 16RCR-27 SFIC rim housing an alternative to the 050473 top latch kit?
No. The Arrow 16RCR-27 is a 6/7-pin SFIC rim housing for the 24/25 Series - a cylinder housing that carries the key core for keyed exit trim. The Von Duprin 050473 is the top latch kit with cover for Von Duprin 8827 series devices, a mechanical latching component with no keying role. A locksmith rekeying an opening orders the housing; a locksmith restoring top latching on an 8827 orders the latch kit.
