Von Duprin 8827EO-F US26D-3 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What door size and stile does the Von Duprin 8827F-3FT fit?
The 3FT device is sized for a 36 inch door and is a wide stile device with a 1-3/4 inch door thickness. That is the standard commercial door thickness, so it suits hollow metal and most commercial wood and aluminum openings, but a 1-3/8 inch older interior door is out of range. Narrow stile aluminum storefront is the wrong application for it; for that, a narrow stile device like the Detex Advantex 50/51 Series is the type to look at.
2) Can a surface vertical rod exit device secure a pair of doors without a mullion?
That is exactly what a vertical rod device is for. The 8827F latches at the head and at the threshold rather than into a strike on the jamb, so a pair of doors can be secured with no center mullion and the full clear opening stays available for moving equipment or gurneys. If you use a rim device instead, you need a removable mullion between the leaves, and someone has to pull and reset it every time you need the wide opening.
3) What is LBR on a vertical rod exit device and should I order it?
Less bottom rod deletes the rod and latch that run down to the threshold, so the device latches only at the head. It is the usual choice where the bottom rod would be a trip hazard, would drag on carpet or an uneven slab, or gets bent by carts and mop buckets. The 8827F can be ordered less bottom rod or with the full bottom rod. If you go LBR, the top latch has to carry the opening on its own, and the ES top Pullman latch option is the pairing for that; with a full bottom rod, PL gives you Pullman latches top and bottom.
4) Will the 8827F latch into my existing top and bottom strikes?
Latch throw is 3/4 inch on the 8827F. Measure the depth of the strike pocket in your head frame and the floor strike or threshold cup you already have: if they accept a 3/4 inch throw and sit on the same centerline, the device drops in. Replacing another surface vertical rod device usually means new strikes anyway, and the strikes that come with the device are the ones its rods are set up for.
5) Does the Von Duprin 8827F have an ANSI grade and fire listing I can put on a submittal?
Grade 1 to ANSI/BHMA A156.3, 2008, with UL listing under ANSI/UL 10C and CAN/ULC-S104 for fire doors, plus ANSI/UL 305 and CAN/ULC-S132 for panic hardware. That is the set a facility spec normally calls for on a rated egress opening, and it is what standardizes across a campus of hollow metal openings.
6) What are the alternatives to the Von Duprin 8827F for a fire rated 36 inch vertical rod opening?
Two other fire rated vertical rod devices sit in the same slot. The Delaney F9100 Series is Grade 1 and fire rated, built for a 36 by 84 inch door. The Marks USA M9900FVR is fire rated, non-handed, and exit only, for a 36 by 84 inch door, so it suits an opening with no outside trim. If the door is 48 inches, the Marks USA M9900F-VR is the 48 by 84 inch fire rated version. Where the 8827F separates itself is the trim range and the electrified options, which matter when the opening is on access control.
7) What is a fire rated alternative to the Von Duprin 8827F-3FT surface vertical rod exit device for a 36 inch door?
The Delaney F9100 Series fire rated heavy duty vertical rod device is a Grade 1 fire rated vertical rod device sized for a 36 by 84 inch door, and the Marks USA M9900FVR is a fire rated vertical rod exit device for a 36 by 84 inch door in an exit only function. The 8827F-3FT is also Grade 1 with a fire rating, built for 36 inch doors on a wide stile, and it can be ordered with lever, knob, thumb piece or thumb turn trim as well as exit only, so if the opening needs outside trim the Von Duprin covers functions the exit only devices do not.
8) Is the Detex 30 Advantex a substitute for the Von Duprin 8827F-3FT surface vertical rod device?
They latch differently. The Detex 30 Advantex Series is a super heavy duty Grade 1 mortise exit device for 36 inch wide stile doors, and it is not compatible with wood doors. A mortise device latches into the frame at the strike, while the 8827F-3FT is a surface vertical rod device that latches top and bottom with a 3/4 inch latch throw. The Von Duprin is also fire rated, which the Detex 30 is not. Choose by how the opening is prepped: mortise prep in the door edge points to the Detex 30, top and bottom strikes point to the vertical rod.
9) How much clearance does the Von Duprin 88 Series crossbar device need off the face of the door?
Projection is 4-3/4 inches, measured off the door face. Check that against anything in the swing path: a wall the door opens back against, an adjacent leaf on a pair, or a push plate on the opposite side. Mounting height is fixed too, with the device centerline at 39-13/16 inches from finished floor, which is what you dimension your shop drawing and any electrified conduit stub to.
10) Do I have to specify a hand for the Von Duprin 8827F?
The device itself is non-handed, so the panic hardware is the same part either way. Handing still gets selected on the order, RHR or LHR, because the outside trim has to match the door swing. If you are ordering exit only with no outside trim, handing stops mattering to the function.
11) What outside trim options are available on the Von Duprin 88 Series vertical rod device?
Twelve trim functions cover the range: exit only with no outside trim, dummy trim, knob and lever in plain, blank escutcheon and night latch variants, plus thumb turn and thumb piece versions including a thumb piece night latch. Lever trim comes in six lever styles, 01, 02, 03, 06, 07 and 17. Exit only is the common pick on a stair discharge or a rear service door where nobody needs to come back in; night latch is what you want when a keyholder has to re-enter.
12) How do I monitor or electrically control a Von Duprin 88 Series exit device?
Two separate things. An RX request-to-exit switch signals the access control panel that the bar was pushed, which is what you use to shunt an alarm or release a door contact on legitimate egress. The E8875 electric option is what handles access control or fire alarm integration on the outside trim. RX is a factory-ordered option on the 8827F, so specify it up front rather than retrofitting the case in the field.
13) Do I need to order mounting hardware separately for the 8827F, and can it be cut down for a narrower door?
All necessary mounting fasteners come with the device, so there is no separate fastener pack to add to the order. The crossbar is field sizeable, so the 3FT device sized for a 36 inch door can be cut down on site for a narrower leaf. It also covers the 86 cutout on stock hollow metal doors, which means a standard prepped HM door needs no additional metalwork.
14) I do not need a fire rating, just a heavy duty vertical rod device. What should I buy instead?
On a non-rated opening you have cheaper ways to go. The Imperial USA ED-VR531, 500 Series, is a Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod device in 36 inch, exit only. The Delaney 9100 Series and 8100 Series are both Grade 1 for a 36 by 84 inch door. The Cal-Royal 9860 is a Grade 2 heavy duty exit only device, a step down in grade but a fit for lighter traffic. None of those carry a fire rating, so do not put them on a door in a rated wall.
15) Should I use a surface vertical rod device or a mortise exit device on a wide stile door?
A surface vertical rod like the 8827F mounts on the face of the door and latches top and bottom, which is what lets it hold a pair with no mullion. Everything is exposed, so it is straightforward to service, but the rods and the bottom latch live where carts and mops hit them. A mortise exit device such as the Detex 30 Advantex, Grade 1 wide stile, pockets into the door edge and latches into the jamb, so nothing runs the height of the door. That suits a single door in heavy traffic; note that the Detex 30 is not for wood doors and is not fire rated.
16) What is a simpler exit only vertical rod device instead of a Von Duprin 8827F-3FT with trim?
For an opening that only needs egress with no outside trim, the Marks USA M9900VR is a 36 by 84 inch vertical rod panic exit device in an exit only, non-handed configuration, and the Imperial USA ED-VR531 is a Grade 1 36 inch surface vertical rod device in an exit only function for wide stile doors. Neither is fire rated. The 8827F-3FT is fire rated and non-handed, and it offers an EO exit only build as well, so it stays the choice where the opening is in a rated assembly.
17) Will a Detex Advantex 50/51 Series exit device work on the same door as a Von Duprin 8827F-3FT?
Not on the same stile. The Detex Advantex 50/51 Series surface vertical rod device is a Grade 1 narrow stile device supplied with a blank escutcheon, while the 8827F-3FT is a wide stile device. If you are matching a wide stile aluminum or hollow metal opening, the Detex V50/V51 Value Series surface vertical rod device is the wide stile Detex, Grade 1, with lever trim active by key and locked when the key is removed. The Von Duprin also offers a blank escutcheon build under its knob, lever, thumb turn and thumb piece trim functions.
18) What non-rated Grade 1 vertical rod device matches the Von Duprin 8827F-3FT on a door that is not in a fire rated assembly?
The Delaney 9100 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty vertical rod device for a 36 by 84 inch door in a stainless steel finish, and the Delaney 8100 Series is a Grade 1 vertical rod device for the same 36 by 84 inch opening. Neither carries a fire rating. Both hold the same Grade 1 rating as the 8827F-3FT, so on a non-rated opening they meet the same grade; the Von Duprin adds the fire rating and a less dogging build for openings where dogging is not permitted.
19) I need a delayed egress exit device on an exterior door - is that a version of the Von Duprin 8827F-3FT?
No, it is a different device. The Detex Advantex 10 Series is a weatherized delayed egress exit device with a 100 dB alarm and NEMA 4X protection, which is what an exterior opening needing delayed egress and an audible alarm calls for. The 8827F-3FT is a fire rated surface vertical rod device and can be ordered with an RX request to exit switch for door monitoring, but that signals status rather than delaying egress.
20) What finishes does the Von Duprin 8827F come in, and which match existing building 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. For matching a fleet of existing openings, 626 satin chrome is the workhorse on commercial hollow metal and 613 oil rubbed bronze is the usual pick where the rest of the trim is dark. Order the outside trim in the same number so the escutcheon and the crossbar read the same.
21) What is a knurled crossbar on an exit device for?
Knurling is a raised texture on the crossbar that acts as a tactile warning for a visually impaired user that the door leads somewhere hazardous, a mechanical room or a loading area for instance. On the 8827F it is the KN crossbar option. The third choice is RCB, a reinforced crossbar, which is what to specify in a school corridor, a gym or anywhere the bar takes abuse. Standard crossbar is fine everywhere else.
