Von Duprin 8827EO-F US26D-4 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Von Duprin 8827F work on a fire rated pair of doors with no center mullion?
Yes. The 8827F is a surface vertical rod device, so it latches into the head frame and the threshold rather than into a mullion or a strike on the opposite leaf. That is what makes it the right choice on a pair with no center mullion. It's fire rated and UL listed under ANSI/UL 10C and CAN/ULC-S104, so it's legal on a fire door assembly. If your opening has a removable mullion already, a rim device is the simpler device for that condition.
2) Why does the 8827F come less dogging, and can I add dogging to it?
Less dogging is required, not optional, on this one. Hold-open dogging keeps the latches retracted so a door can push freely, and that is not permitted on a fire rated door, which has to positively latch every time it closes. The 8827F is a fire rated device and ships less dogging for that reason. If you want a device you can dog open during business hours, you need a non-fire-rated exit device on a non-rated opening, such as the Falcon 25-V-EO or the Corbin Russwin ED5400, both wide stile surface vertical rod devices that are not fire rated.
3) What is the minimum door stile width for the Von Duprin 88 Series exit device?
The 88 Series fits stiles as narrow as 2-1/2 inches (90 mm), and it covers a stock hollow metal door with the standard 86 cutout. Measure the flat face of your stile from the glass or lite stop to the edge of the door before you order. If your aluminum door has less than 2-1/2 inches of stile, this is the wrong device family, and you want a narrow stile device instead, like the Corbin Russwin ED4400 or the TownSteel ED3727.
4) Will the 8827F fit a 1-3/8 inch door?
No. The 8827F is built for 1-3/4 inch doors only, which is the standard commercial thickness. A 1-3/8 inch door is typically an older interior residential-weight leaf, and it would not be a rated fire door assembly anyway, so an exit device of this class does not belong on it.
5) Do I need to specify handing on the Von Duprin 8827F?
The device itself is non-handed, so the chassis works either way. You do still pick RHR or LHR when ordering, because the trim and the strike prep follow the swing. Stand outside the opening: if the door pulls toward you and the hinges are on your right, it's right hand reverse. Get that call right and the lever or thumbpiece lands on the correct side.
6) 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 down to the threshold, so nothing is exposed at floor level to collect mop water, grit, or a kicked-in bend. It's a common call in schools, kitchens, and loading areas. Order it with the ES top latch only option, which is the pullman latch set built for LBR devices. If you keep the bottom rod, the PL option gives you top and bottom pullman latches. On a fire rated pair, confirm the LBR arrangement is accepted by the door manufacturer's listing for that assembly.
7) Will the 8827F latch into the strikes already on my door frame?
Latch throw on the 8827F is 3/4 inch, top and bottom. If you're replacing another surface vertical rod device, measure your existing head strike pocket and threshold strike depth against that 3/4 inch, and check that the strike locations line up with a crossbar centerline of 39-13/16 inches from finished floor. Surface vertical rod devices generally come with their own strikes, and on a fire rated opening the strikes supplied with the device are the ones the listing covers.
8) Which outside trim function do I order with the 8827F for a classroom or a storeroom door?
Trim function is a separate selection on the order. Storeroom keeps the outside trim rigid at all times and requires a key each entry. Classroom lets a key unlock the outside trim for free passage and relock it. Exit only (EO) means no outside trim at all, so the door is egress only from the inside. Beyond those you can specify dummy trim, knob (K, K-BE, K-NL), lever (L, L-BE), thumb turn (TL, TL-BE), or thumb piece (TP, TP-BE, TP-NL). If you choose a lever function, you also pick the lever style: 06 is the default, with 01, 02, 03, 07, and 17 also available.
9) Can I use a non-fire-rated exit device like the Adams Rite 8100 on a fire door if the rest of the hardware is rated?
No. A fire door assembly only holds its rating if every component in it is listed for that use, and a device that isn't fire rated voids the opening regardless of what else is on the door. The Adams Rite 8100 Series, the Falcon 20 Series, the Corbin Russwin ED5400, and the TownSteel ED8927 are all Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod devices but are not fire rated, so they belong on non-rated openings only. For a rated opening you need a device carrying the fire listing outright, like the 8827F with its ANSI/UL 10C and CAN/ULC-S104 listing.
10) What is the closest fire rated equivalent to the Von Duprin 8827F if I need another brand on a wide stile fire door?
The Sargent 12-8710 is a fire rated wide stile surface vertical rod exit device carrying Grade 1, and the TownSteel EF9727 in the 9700 Series is a fire rated Grade 1 heavy duty wide stile surface vertical rod device that is also compatible with wood doors. Both match the 8827F on the two specs that decide a fire opening: fire rating and Grade 1. The 8827F itself is a wide stile Grade 1 device with fire rating, 3/4 inch latch throw, and a less dogging configuration, which is what fire codes require since the latch cannot be held retracted.
11) My door is aluminum storefront with a narrow stile - can I use the 8827F or do I need a different device?
The 8827F is a wide stile device built for stiles as narrow as 2-1/2 inches, so a true narrow stile storefront leaf needs a narrow stile chassis instead. The Adams Rite 8200 Series is a narrow stile surface vertical rod exit device at Grade 1, the Corbin Russwin ED4400 is a Grade 1 narrow stile surface vertical rod device that accepts trim, and the Corbin Russwin ED7400 is a Grade 1 narrow stile crossbar surface vertical rod device that accepts operator trim. If the opening is also a fire door, the Arrow S1150 is fire rated and fits narrow or wide stile.
12) Is a Grade 2 surface vertical rod device an acceptable alternative to the Von Duprin 8827F?
The 8827F is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3 Grade 1. Grade 2 alternatives in the same device type include the Dexter ED2000 Series surface vertical rod panic device and the TownSteel TS5100 Series heavy duty wide stile device, both Grade 2 and neither fire rated. Where a specification or facility standard calls out Grade 1, or the opening is a labeled fire door, a Grade 2 device will not satisfy it. Grade 1 non-fire-rated options in this class include the Dexter ED1500 Series and the BEST Precision 5201 reversible device.
13) I am putting an exit device on a wood door - does the Von Duprin 8827F suit that or is there a better choice?
The 8827F is a wide stile device for 1-3/4 inch doors, described for stock hollow metal doors with the 86 cutout. If the leaf is wood, TownSteel calls out wood door compatibility directly: the EF9727 is fire rated Grade 1 heavy duty wide stile and wood door compatible, the ED8927 is Grade 1 wide stile and wood door compatible without a fire rating, and the ED3727 is Grade 1 narrow stile and wood door compatible. For a labeled wood fire door the EF9727 is the one that carries both the fire rating and the wood door callout.
14) Which surface vertical rod exit devices are built for the same 1-3/4 inch door thickness as the Von Duprin 8827F?
The 8827F is specified for a 1-3/4 inch door. Peers listing the same 1-3/4 inch door thickness include the Adams Rite 3100 Series, which is also fire rated Grade 1 wide stile, the Arrow S1150 fire rated device, the Corbin Russwin ED5400 Grade 1 wide stile, the Falcon 20 Series and Falcon 25-V-EO Grade 1 wide stile devices, and the Orca OED56. For a fire door on a 1-3/4 inch leaf, the Adams Rite 3100 is the peer that matches on thickness, grade, stile type and fire rating together.
15) How much room does the 8827F exit device stick out into the corridor?
Projection is 4-3/4 inches off the door face, and the crossbar centerline sits 39-13/16 inches above the finished floor. Those two numbers are what you check against a tight vestibule, an opposing door swing, or a required clear corridor width before you commit.
16) Is the 4 ft 8827F only for 48 inch doors, or can it be cut down?
The 88 Series is field sizeable, and it comes in 3 ft and 4 ft lengths. The 4 ft device carries a 48 inch crossbar and is the one to order for wider leaves; on narrower doors it can be sized in the field rather than reordered. Pick the length that covers at least half the door width so the crossbar is where a person's hand lands.
17) Can I tie the 8827F into an access control system or a door position alarm?
Two options cover that. RX is a request-to-exit switch built into the device, which signals your access control panel or alarm that someone pushed the bar from the inside, so egress doesn't trip a forced-door alarm. The E8875 electrified option is the one for access control and fire alarm integration. Order RX and the electrification with the device rather than adding them later, since both are internal to the chassis.
18) What is the difference between the standard, RCB reinforced, and KN knurled crossbar on the 88 Series?
Crossbar choice is required on every order. Standard is the plain crossbar. RCB is a reinforced crossbar for openings that take abuse, such as loading docks, stadium exits, and back-of-house doors where carts and crowds hit the bar. KN is knurling, a roughened texture on the crossbar that serves as a tactile hazard warning, which is what you specify on a door leading to a hazardous area so someone can feel the difference in the dark or without looking.
19) What can I use instead of the Von Duprin 8827F on a fire rated wide stile opening?
Staying fire rated and wide stile, the closest cross-brand equivalents are the TownSteel EF9727 from the 9700 Series, which is Grade 1, fire rated, heavy duty, and also listed for wood doors, and the Sargent 8700 Series 12-8710, a Grade 1 fire rated wide stile surface vertical rod device. Adams Rite's 3100 Series is another fire rated Grade 1 wide stile option and fits the same 1-3/4 inch door thickness. All three are surface vertical rod, so they latch a pair the same way the 8827F does. The 88 Series is the crossbar device of the group; the others differ in actuator style and trim range.
20) Is the Von Duprin 8827F Grade 1, and what standards is it certified to?
Grade 1 under ANSI/BHMA A156.3, 2008, which is the top durability tier for exit devices and what most institutional and government specs call for. It is also UL listed to ANSI/UL 10C for fire, ANSI/UL 305 as a panic hardware listing, and the Canadian equivalents CAN/ULC-S104 and CAN/ULC-S132. If you're standardizing a campus or a hospital on one device family, those four listings are the ones a submittal reviewer looks for.
21) Do I need to order mounting hardware separately for the 8827F, or is anything else required to finish the door?
All necessary mounting fasteners come with the device. What isn't in the box is the outside trim, which is a separate selection, and the lever style if you go with a lever function. Order the device, the trim function, and the finish together so the trim matches. On a fire rated opening you'll also need a listed closer, since a fire door has to self-close and positively latch.
22) Should I use a surface vertical rod device or a rim device with a removable mullion on a double door?
It comes down to whether you want anything standing in the opening. A surface vertical rod device like the 8827F latches into the head and the sill on each leaf, so both doors swing free and you get the full clear width, which matters for moving equipment or beds. The tradeoff is exposed rods on the door face and more adjustment over time. Rim devices with a removable mullion put a post in the middle of the opening that has to be pulled out to move anything wide, but the hardware is simpler and there is nothing at floor level. On a fire rated opening either approach is acceptable if the components are listed; the 8827F carries the ANSI/UL 10C listing for that.
23) What is a simpler exit-only surface vertical rod device if I do not need outside trim like the Von Duprin 8827F offers?
The 8827F accepts a wide range of outside trim functions including lever, knob, thumb piece, thumb turn, night latch and dummy. If the opening only needs egress with no outside operation, exit-only devices skip that trim entirely: the Falcon 25-V-EO is a Grade 1 wide stile exit only device, the Sargent 3727 is a Grade 1 wide stile exit only device with a standard push bar, and the Arrow 3700 Series is a Grade 1 wide stile pushpad exit only device. For a fire rated exit only opening, the Arrow S1150 is fire rated and supplied less trim.
24) I need a crossbar exit device rather than a push pad - which other brands offer a crossbar style?
The 8827F uses a cross bar style push rail on a 48 inch device. Among other brands, the Corbin Russwin ED7400 is a crossbar surface vertical rod device, though it is a Grade 1 narrow stile chassis rather than wide stile. Most of the other surface vertical rod devices in this class use a push pad or push bar rail instead, such as the Sargent 3727 with a standard push bar and the Arrow 3700 Series pushpad. If the crossbar look has to match existing doors on a wide stile opening, the 88 Series is the closer match.
25) Do I have to order handing on a surface vertical rod exit device, or are there reversible options?
The 8827F is a non-handed device, so handing does not change the part that arrives. Among other brands, the BEST Precision 5201 and the Sargent 2727 are described as reversible, and the Orca OED56 Series is non-handed. A reversible or non-handed device is the safer stock item for a property manager holding spares across a mixed set of openings, since one unit covers both swings. The Sargent 2727 is Grade 1 wide stile exit only and fire rated.
26) I want a less bottom rod device to avoid the floor strike - what are the options besides the Von Duprin 8827F?
The 8827F can be ordered less bottom rod, with ES top latch only or PL top and bottom pullman latches configuring how it latches. Among other brands, the Orca OED56 Series is supplied less bottom rod as a standard duty exit only device for 1-3/4 inch doors, though it is not fire rated. Dropping the bottom rod removes the floor strike that collects debris and takes abuse from carts and traffic, which is why it comes up on high-traffic openings.
27) I need a dummy device to match an active exit device on the inactive leaf of a pair - what works?
The 8827F can be ordered with DT dummy trim or a blank escutcheon trim function so the inactive leaf visually matches the active one. The Sargent 12-8710 is a fire rated wide stile Grade 1 surface vertical rod device with a dummy function, which is the equivalent move in the Sargent 8700 Series. On a labeled pair, both leaves need to carry the fire rating, so a non-rated dummy is not an acceptable stand-in.
28) What is the difference between a heavy duty and a standard duty surface vertical rod exit device when picking against the Von Duprin 8827F?
Duty level tracks how much traffic the device is built to absorb. The Design Hardware 1000V is a heavy duty surface vertical rod device and the 2000V is standard duty, both in the same rod configuration and neither fire rated. The TownSteel EF9727 is heavy duty and fire rated at Grade 1. The 8827F is a Grade 1 commercial device with a 3/4 inch latch throw, which is the specification that governs on a high-traffic labeled opening in a school or hospital corridor.
29) What finishes does the Von Duprin 88 Series exit device come in, and which holds up in a high traffic entrance?
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 high traffic entry that gets handprints and cart strikes, 626 satin chrome is the standard commercial pick because the brushed surface hides wear; the bright finishes (605, 625) show every scuff. If you're matching existing openings in a building, order by the BHMA number, not by the finish name.
