    Von Duprin 8827EO US26D-3 – Frequently Asked Questions

    1) Will the Von Duprin 8827-3FT fit a 36 inch door with a 2-1/2 inch stile?
    Yes on both counts. The 8827-3FT is sized for a 36 inch door and mounts on wide stiles down to 2-1/2 inches. Door thickness has to be 1-3/4 inches, the standard commercial thickness, so it is not the device for a 1-3/8 inch leaf. Two more numbers worth checking before you commit: it stands 4-3/4 inches off the face of the door, which matters in a tight corridor, and the crossbar centerline sits 39-13/16 inches above finished floor.
    2) Will the Von Duprin 8827 secure a pair of doors with no center mullion?
    That is what a surface vertical rod device is built for. It latches into a strike at the frame head and into the floor rather than into the jamb, so a pair with no mullion is secured with one device per leaf and nothing standing between the two doors. The 8827 is non-handed, so the identical device goes on the left and right leaf. Each leaf still has to meet the same fit: a 36 inch wide, 1-3/4 inch thick door with at least a 2-1/2 inch stile for the 3 foot device.
    3) My door is not exactly 36 inches. Can the Von Duprin 8827-3FT be cut down, or do I need a different length?
    The 3 foot 88 Series device is field sizeable, so it can be trimmed on site for a leaf narrower than 36 inches instead of waiting on a special order. It will not stretch, though. For a leaf wider than 36 inches the 4 foot version of the device is what you order. Size to the individual leaf, not to the width of the pair.
    4) Will the Von Duprin 8827 cover the 86 cutout on my existing hollow metal doors?
    It does. The 8827-3FT covers stock hollow metal doors prepped with the 86 cutout, so an opening already prepped for a Von Duprin device does not need the face patched or the leaf replaced. The device mounts with its centerline 39-13/16 inches off finished floor, and all necessary mounting fasteners come with it.
    5) What trim do I have to order with a Von Duprin 8827 vertical rod device, and can the door be opened from outside?
    Outside operation is a separate choice, and the device alone gives you none. Exit only (EO) leaves a blank plate outside. For key entry from the outside, night latch trim (NL, K-NL or TP-NL) retracts the latch with a cylinder, which is ordered separately. For a door that stays free from outside, there is knob (K), lever (L), thumbpiece (TP) and thumb turn (TL) trim, each also offered with a blank escutcheon, plus dummy versions (DT, K-DT, L-DT) for the inactive leaf of a pair. The 88 Series trims are the 880 family, such as the 880NL night latch or the 880K knob trim.
    6) The opening is a fire rated stair door. What vertical rod exit device should I order instead of the Von Duprin 8827-3FT?
    The 8827-3FT carries a fire rating of No and is built with hex key dogging, so it belongs on non rated openings. For a fire labeled door, two vertical rod peers are rated. The Delaney F9100 Series DLY-694300 is a Grade 1 fire rated heavy duty vertical rod device for a 36" x 84" door in an aluminum finish. The Marks USA M9900FVR (MAR-M9900FVR-36X84) is a fire rated vertical rod exit device for a 36" x 84" door in an exit only, non handed configuration. If the same fire rated opening is a 48" door, the Marks USA M9900F-VR (MAR-MARM9900F-VR-48) covers 48" x 84" fire rated, exit only.
    7) Will a Von Duprin 8827-3FT work on a narrow stile aluminum storefront door, or do I need a different device?
    The 8827-3FT is a wide stile device, sized to fit stiles as narrow as 2-1/2" with a 4-3/4" projection off the door face. On a true narrow stile aluminum door, the Detex Advantex 50/51 Series 5001DN/5101DN is a Grade 1 narrow stile surface vertical rod exit device supplied with a blank escutcheon. It solves the same egress problem on the same rod arrangement, but it is built for the narrow stile prep the 8827 crossbar chassis is not.
    8) What are the closest Grade 1 surface vertical rod alternatives to the Von Duprin 8827-3FT on a 36 inch wide stile door?
    The 8827-3FT is a wide stile surface vertical rod device carrying ANSI/BHMA Grade 1, sized for a 36" door. Three Grade 1 peers cover the same opening. The Imperial USA ED-VR531 (ED-500 Series) is a 36" Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod device in an exit only function, with no fire rating. The Delaney 9100 Series DLY-692301 is a Grade 1 heavy duty vertical rod device for a 36" x 84" door in a stainless steel finish, also non fire rated. The Detex V50/V51 Value Series V5009BN/V5109BN is a Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod device supplied with lever trim that is active by key and locked when the key is removed. The difference that usually decides it is outside trim: the 8827-3FT is ordered across knob, lever, thumb piece, thumb turn, dummy, blank escutcheon and night latch functions, while the ED-VR531 and the Delaney 9100 are single function devices as listed.
    9) My door is 48 inches wide. What vertical rod panic device covers it instead of the Von Duprin 8827-3FT?
    The 8827-3FT is sized for a 36" door. For a 48" leaf, the Marks USA M9900VR-48X84 is a 48" x 84" vertical rod panic device in an exit only function, and the Marks USA M9900F-VR (MAR-MARM9900F-VR-48) is the fire rated 48" x 84" version, also exit only. Both are exit only devices, so if the 48" opening needs outside lever, knob or night latch trim, that is a function the M9900VR pair does not cover.
    10) Is the Detex 30 Advantex a direct replacement for a Von Duprin 8827 vertical rod device?
    No. The Detex 30 Advantex (DET-30 36) is a mortise exit device, not a vertical rod device. It is a Grade 1, super heavy duty, 36" wide stile unit that latches through a mortise lock case in the edge of the door, so the opening needs a mortise pocket and a jamb strike rather than the top and bottom rod runs and top strike the 8827-3FT uses. The Detex 30 is also listed as not wood door compatible. The two match on stile type, door width and Grade 1, and part ways on door prep.
    11) Can the Von Duprin 8827 be held unlocked during business hours?
    Hex key dogging handles that. A hex wrench applied at the crossbar holds the latches retracted so the door pushes and pulls freely through the day, then locks again when you undog it. Nothing electrical is involved. That same dogging is why the 8827 is a non-fire-rated device only.
    12) Can I order the Von Duprin 8827 without the bottom rod?
    Less bottom rod is an option on the 8827. LBR deletes the bottom rod and floor latch, which is the usual call where a floor strike would fill with grit, sit in standing water, catch a cart wheel, or where the slab is out of level enough that the bottom latch never lines up. The trade is that the leaf is then held at the head only. Order it as the LBR configuration rather than trying to remove the rod later.
    13) Can a Von Duprin 8827 exit device tie into access control or a fire alarm system?
    Two options cover it. The RX request to exit switch signals when the crossbar is pushed and provides door position monitoring, which is what an access control panel needs to see a legitimate egress instead of a forced door. The E8875 electrified option is the route for access control or fire alarm integration. Both are specified with the device.
    14) How much latch engagement does the Von Duprin 8827 give at the top and bottom?
    Three quarters of an inch of throw, at both the head and the floor, and both latches pull back together when someone pushes the crossbar. Because 3/4 inch is all the engagement you get, the top strike has to be set true to the device centerline of 39-13/16 inches from finished floor or the latch will drag or miss. Mounting fasteners come with the device. The Von Duprin 299 is the top strike used with 22, 88, 98 and 99 Series devices.
    15) Surface vertical rod or mortise exit device for a 36 inch wide stile door?
    Surface vertical rod, like the 8827, bolts to the face of the door and latches top and bottom, so it takes a pair with no mullion and needs no pocket machined into the door edge, which is what makes it the easy retrofit. The rods and latches are exposed, and that is the usual objection to them. A mortise exit device latches into the jamb and requires the door edge mortised, so it suits a single door in a frame with a strike and keeps the hardware out of harm's way. Detex's 30 Advantex Series is a Grade 1 super heavy duty wide stile mortise device for a 36 inch opening, though it is not for wood doors.
    16) Is the Von Duprin 8827 Grade 1, and what else is there if my spec allows something lighter?
    ANSI/BHMA A156.3, 2008 Grade 1, along with ANSI/UL 305 and CAN/ULC-S132, and UL listed for accident hazard installations. Grade 1 is the top of the three ANSI/BHMA grades and is what most commercial and institutional specs call out. If the spec allows Grade 2, the Cal-Royal 9860 is a heavy duty Grade 2 surface vertical rod in exit only function. Staying at Grade 1 with a different brand, the Imperial USA ED-VR531 is a wide stile exit only surface vertical rod for a 36 inch door and the Delaney 9100 Series covers a 36 x 84 opening.
    17) I need delayed egress and an alarm on an exterior door. Does the Von Duprin 8827 cover that or do I need another device?
    The 8827-3FT can be ordered with an RX request to exit switch, which monitors and signals that the crossbar has been pushed. It does not delay the exit or sound its own alarm. Where the opening calls for delayed egress with a local alarm and exposure to weather, the Detex Advantex 10 Series 10EEX is a weatherized delayed egress exit device with a 100 dB alarm and NEMA 4X protection. Use the 8827-3FT with RX where the access control panel does the annunciating, and the 10EEX where the device itself must hold the door and sound off.
    18) If the door only needs push to exit with nothing on the outside, what exit only vertical rod devices compare to the Von Duprin 8827?
    The 8827-3FT itself is ordered in an EO exit only function, so a blank outside face is available on the same Grade 1 chassis. Among the peers, the Imperial USA ED-VR531 (500 Series) is a Grade 1, 36", wide stile surface vertical rod device built exit only. The Marks USA M9900VR is a 36" x 84" vertical rod panic device, exit only and non handed. The Cal-Royal 9860 is a heavy duty, ADA compliant surface vertical rod device in an exit only function at Grade 2 rather than Grade 1. None of the three is fire rated, and neither is the 8827-3FT.
    19) Carts keep tearing up the bottom rod. What are my options besides another surface vertical rod device?
    Two directions. On the same device, the 8827-3FT is ordered less bottom rod, which removes the bottom rod and latch from the traffic path while keeping the top latching and the 3/4" latch throw. If the opening can take a different latching method entirely, the Detex 30 Advantex (DET-30 36) is a Grade 1, super heavy duty, 36" wide stile mortise exit device that latches at the door edge with no vertical rods at all. The Detex 30 requires a mortise prep and is not wood door compatible, so it suits a hollow metal opening being reworked rather than a straight swap.
    20) What finishes does the Von Duprin 8827 come in for matching the rest of a building's hardware?
    Nine finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 619 satin nickel, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 643E aged bronze and 693 black. Those are BHMA finish numbers, so 626 satin chrome on the 8827 lines up with 626 on other manufacturers' hardware in the same opening, which is how you standardize across a building without matching by eye.
    21) What is the knurled crossbar option on a Von Duprin 88 Series exit device for?
    KN knurling textures the crossbar as a tactile warning that the door leads somewhere hazardous: stairs, a loading platform, a boiler room. Someone reaching for the bar in the dark, or without looking, feels the difference before they push. It is specified with the device rather than added afterward, so decide on it when you place the order.
    22) How do the finish choices on the Von Duprin 8827-3FT compare with the other Grade 1 vertical rod devices?
    The 8827-3FT is ordered in 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 619 satin nickel, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 643E aged bronze and 693 black, which lets a device match existing lever and closer finishes across a building. The Delaney 9100 Series DLY-692301 is listed in a stainless steel finish and the fire rated Delaney F9100 DLY-694300 in an aluminum finish, each a single finish per part number. Where the architectural finish is dictated by the rest of the opening hardware, the 8827-3FT finish range is the deciding difference.
    23) What is the difference between the Delaney 8100 and 9100 vertical rod devices when cross shopping a Grade 1 device for a 36 inch door?
    Both are Grade 1 vertical rod devices for a 36" x 84" door and neither is fire rated: the Delaney 8100 Series DLY-8100-3684 and the Delaney 9100 Series DLY-692301, the latter described as heavy duty in a stainless steel finish. Against them, the Von Duprin 8827-3FT is a Grade 1 wide stile crossbar device for a 36" door at 1-3/4" thickness, non handed, with hex key dogging and a device centerline of 39-13/16" from the finished floor for laying out the door prep.
