    Von Duprin 8827EO US26D-4 – Frequently Asked Questions

    1) Will the Von Duprin 8827 surface vertical rod device work on a pair of doors with no center mullion?
    Yes. The 8827 is a surface vertical rod device, so it latches into a top strike at the head and at the threshold rather than into a strike in the frame's edge. That is what lets it secure a pair of doors with no mullion between them, one device per leaf. If you would rather keep a mullion and use rim devices, that is a different device type entirely. Note the 8827 is not fire rated, so on a fire-rated pair you need a labeled device instead.
    2) Is a 48 inch exit device too long for a 36 inch door?
    No. The 48 inch crossbar on the 8827-4FT is field sizeable, so it gets cut down on site to the door width you actually have. The 4 foot size is the one to order for door leaves wider than a standard 3 foot opening; buy it to cover your widest leaf and size it in the field. Mount height is fixed at a 39-13/16 inch centerline from finished floor.
    3) What is Less Bottom Rod on a vertical rod exit device, and should I order it?
    Less bottom rod (LBR) deletes the rod and latch that run to the threshold, so nothing hangs at the floor to catch a mop, a cart, or a snow line. It is the usual choice on doors over hard-use thresholds and where floor latching is a maintenance headache. The 8827 is orderable either way. If you go LBR you should also take the ES top latch option, since the top latch is doing all the securing once the bottom rod is gone. Keep both rods and add the PL top and bottom pullman latches where you want the full two-point latching.
    4) What outside trim can I put on a Von Duprin 8827, and does it come with the device?
    Trim is a separate selection and covers fourteen functions: exit only, dummy, knob, knob with blank escutcheon, knob dummy, knob night latch, lever, lever with blank escutcheon, lever dummy, thumb turn, thumb turn with blank escutcheon, thumb piece, thumb piece with blank escutcheon, and thumb piece night latch. Lever trim gets a lever style on top of that: 01, 02, 03, 06, 07, or 17. The matching 88 Series trims are the 880 line, for example the 880NL night latch, the 880K knob, the 880TP thumbpiece, and the 880EO exit only plate. Mounting fasteners for the device are included.
    5) Can I tie a Von Duprin 8827 into my access control system?
    Yes, two ways, and they do different jobs. The RX request-to-exit switch signals your panel that someone pushed the bar, so a legitimate exit does not read as a forced door alarm. The E8875 electrified option is the one that actually lets the device be operated remotely, tied to access control, a fire alarm interface, or a remote switch. RX is a switch on the order form; specify it up front rather than retrofitting later.
    6) Does the Von Duprin 8827 meet Grade 1 for a school or hospital spec?
    It is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3, 2008, Grade 1, and listed to ANSI/UL 305 and CAN/ULC-S132 as panic hardware. It is not fire rated. If the drawing calls for a labeled device on a rated opening, you need a fire exit device instead: the TownSteel 9700 Series EF9727 and the Adams Rite 3100 Series are both fire rated wide stile surface vertical rod devices, and the Sargent 2727 is a fire rated Grade 1 wide stile unit.
    7) What is the closest wide stile Grade 1 surface vertical rod exit device to the Von Duprin 8827-4FT if a different brand is required?
    The Corbin Russwin ED5400 is the nearest match in a different brand: a Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod exit device for 1-3/4 inch doors that is exit only and accepts trim, in a 36 inch size. The Von Duprin 8827-4FT is also Grade 1 wide stile for 1-3/4 inch doors, but carries a 48 inch crossbar and a full trim range including knob, lever, thumbpiece and thumb turn functions. The TownSteel ED8927 is a second Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod option at 36 inches by 84 inches and is listed as wood door compatible.
    8) The opening needs a fire rated vertical rod exit device - what replaces the Von Duprin 8827-4FT?
    The 8827-4FT is not fire rated, so a fire rated opening needs a different device. Fire rated surface vertical rod options include the Adams Rite 3100 Series in a 30 inch size, Grade 1 wide stile for 1-3/4 inch doors; the TownSteel EF9727, Grade 1 heavy duty wide stile at 36 by 84 inches and wood door compatible; the Sargent 2727, a Grade 1 fire rated reversible wide stile exit only device; and the Arrow S1150 at 30 inches, exit only and less trim, for narrow or wide stile doors at 1-3/4 inch thickness.
    9) The door has a narrow stile - can the Von Duprin 8827-4FT still be used?
    The 8827-4FT is a wide stile device, built for stiles as narrow as 2-1/2 inches. For a true narrow stile opening the device changes: the Adams Rite 8200 Series is a Grade 1 narrow stile surface vertical rod device in a 30 inch size, the Corbin Russwin ED4400 is Grade 1 narrow stile at 36 inches for 1-3/4 inch doors and accepts trim, and the Falcon 19-V-EO is a Grade 1 narrow stile vertical rod device in 36 inch exit only form. The Corbin Russwin ED7400 keeps a crossbar operation on a narrow stile door and accepts operator trim.
    10) Which surface vertical rod exit devices look like a substitute for the Von Duprin 8827-4FT but will not take outside trim?
    Several surface vertical rod devices are supplied exit only and do not accept an outside trim function. The Arrow S1150 is listed as device only, less trim; the Arrow 3700 Series, Falcon 20 Series, Falcon 25-V-EO and Sargent 3727 are exit only. The Sargent 12-8710 is a dummy function device. The 8827-4FT is ordered with a trim function chosen at purchase, from exit only through knob, lever, thumbpiece, thumb turn and night latch variants, so any opening needing keyed or lever entry from the outside needs a device that accepts trim, such as the Corbin Russwin ED5400.
    11) Do I have to specify handing when I order a Von Duprin 8827 exit device?
    The device itself is non-handed, so the chassis is not built left or right. You do still pick RHR or LHR on the order, along with the trim function, because the outside trim and the strike side depend on which way the door swings. Get the swing wrong on the trim and the lever ends up on the wrong side of the door.
    12) Can I hold a Von Duprin 88 Series exit device open during business hours?
    Yes, with the hex key dogging that comes on the 8827-4FT. A hex wrench depresses and holds the crossbar so the latches stay retracted and the door pushes free from the outside, then you undog it at close. Dogging is only legal on a non-fire-rated opening, which this device is. On a labeled fire door you cannot mechanically dog an exit device at all.
    13) Will the Von Duprin 8827 latch into the strike I already have at the head?
    Latch throw on the 8827 is 3/4 inch at each latch point. Surface vertical rod devices latch into their own top strike rather than a frame strike, so plan on the 299 rim/vertical rod top strike, which covers the 22, 88, 98, 99, and 98/9957 series. An existing strike from a rim or mortise device will not accept these latches; the geometry is different.
    14) What is the closest equivalent to a Von Duprin 8827 from another brand?
    For a like-for-like Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod device, the closest peers are the Falcon 20 Series and Falcon 25-V-EO (both Grade 1, wide stile, 1-3/4 inch doors), the Corbin Russwin ED5400 (Grade 1 wide stile, accepts trim), the Sargent 3727, and the TownSteel ED8927. The Corbin Russwin ED7400 is the other crossbar-style device in the set if you specifically want a crossbar rather than a push pad, though it is narrow stile. Falcon and Sargent peers listed here are non-rated like the 8827.
    15) The Von Duprin 8827-4FT is non-handed - which alternatives also avoid specifying handing?
    The 8827-4FT is a non-handed device. Among other surface vertical rod devices, the BEST Precision 5201 Series at 36 inches and the Sargent 2727 are reversible designs, and the Orca Hardware OED56 Series at 36 inches is non-handed, supplied less bottom rod in an aluminum finish for 1-3/4 inch doors. The 8827-4FT itself can be ordered with or without the bottom rod.
    16) What surface vertical rod exit devices come in a shorter size than the Von Duprin 8827-4FT for a narrower door?
    The 8827-4FT carries a 48 inch crossbar. Shorter surface vertical rod devices include the Design Hardware 1000V at 33 inches in a heavy duty build and the 2000V at 33 inches in a standard duty build, the Adams Rite 8100 Series at 30 inches in Grade 1 wide stile, and the BEST Precision 2201 Series at 36 inches in wide stile. None of those four is fire rated, matching the 8827-4FT on that point.
    17) For a facility standardizing on Grade 1 vertical rod exit devices, which alternatives to the Von Duprin 8827-4FT hold that certification?
    The 8827-4FT is ANSI/BHMA A156.3 2008 Grade 1. Other Grade 1 surface vertical rod devices span several brands: Adams Rite 8100 and 8200 Series, Arrow 3700 Series, Corbin Russwin ED4400, ED5400 and ED7400, Dexter ED1000 and ED1500 Series, Falcon 19-V-EO, 20, 24-V-EO and 25-V-EO Series, Sargent 2727 and 3727, and TownSteel ED8927 and ED3727. That gives a facility more than one Grade 1 source for the same device type when standardizing across openings.
    18) Which vertical rod exit devices besides the Von Duprin 8827-4FT can be ordered less bottom rod?
    The 8827-4FT can be ordered less bottom rod, with an ES top latch only option for that configuration. The Orca Hardware OED56 Series is supplied less bottom rod as built, in a 36 inch standard duty exit only form with an aluminum finish for 1-3/4 inch doors. Less bottom rod removes the bottom latch and rod at the threshold, which matters on openings where floor debris or carpet interferes with a bottom strike.
    19) What finishes does the Von Duprin 8827 come in for matching the rest of a building?
    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. For a fleet of openings, 626 satin chrome and 630-family satin finishes are the usual commercial standard, and 613 or 643E are what you match to a darker bronze package. Order all the doors in one finish code at once so the crossbars match across the building.
    20) What is the KN knurled crossbar option and when do I need it?
    Knurling puts a rough texture on the crossbar as a tactile warning that the door leads somewhere hazardous, which some codes require on doors to mechanical rooms, roofs, loading areas, and similar. On the 8827 it is a crossbar option alongside the standard crossbar and the RCB reinforced crossbar. RCB is the one to pick for abuse-prone openings such as schools and shipping doors. All three are ordering choices, not field changes.
    21) Which alternatives to the Von Duprin 8827-4FT support access control monitoring on the exit device?
    The 8827-4FT can be ordered with an RX request to exit switch and is compatible with the E8875 electrified option for access control, fire alarm or remote switching integration. Among other surface vertical rod devices, the Corbin Russwin ED7400 is a Grade 1 device that accepts operator trim, and the Dexter ED1500 Series is a Grade 1 vertical rod device. Confirm the switch and electrification package against the specific device before ordering for a monitored opening.
