Von Duprin 940L-BE-06 26D RHR – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Von Duprin 940L-BE lever trim work on any exit device, or only certain ones?
The 940L-BE is built for the Von Duprin 94 and 95 Series recessed push pad exit devices, and nothing else. The 94 Series has a smooth mechanism case and the 95 Series a grooved case; the trim mounts to either. If the device on your door is a 98/99, a 33A/35A, or another maker's device, this trim will not attach. Match the device series first, then pick handing, lever style, and finish.
2) Does the 940L-BE lever trim lock, or is it always free to open?
It is a passage trim. The lever always retracts the latch from the outside, so the opening stays free at all times. There is no cylinder and no locking mode; the blank escutcheon has no keyhole in it. If you need the outside to be secured, you want a keyed function trim (nightlatch, entry, storeroom) rather than the 940L-BE. Inside egress is handled by the push pad on the device itself.
3) Do I have to order the 940L-BE handed, and which hand do I pick?
Handing is an ordering choice on this trim. It comes as LHR (left hand reverse) or RHR (right hand reverse), and it is handed but reversible, so the lever can be set for the opposite hand rather than needing a different part. Exit devices are always on the reverse-bevel side, which is why both options read as reverse. Stand outside the door, on the pull side: if the hinges are on your right, it's LHR; hinges on the left, RHR.
4) I'm replacing broken lever trim on a hospital corridor door with a Von Duprin recessed push pad device. Is the 940L-BE the same part?
If the existing trim is passage function on a 94 or 95 Series device, yes, the 940L-BE is the direct replacement. Confirm three things off the old trim before ordering: the hand (LHR or RHR), the lever style (03, 06, 07, 17 or M52), and the finish so it matches the other openings on the floor. If the old trim had a keyhole in the escutcheon, it was not passage and the 940L-BE will change how that door works.
5) What is the equivalent of the Von Duprin 940L-BE if the exit device is a Corbin Russwin ED5000 series?
The 940L-BE is a passage function lever trim built for the Von Duprin 94/95 Series, so it will not mount on a Corbin Russwin device. For an ED5200S, ED5200, ED5400 or ED5800 device, the passage function counterpart is the Corbin Russwin x910ET heavy-duty trim. On an ED4000 series device the passage trim is the x810ET, and on the ED3000 series it is the 3310AET, which covers rim, surface vertical rod and mortise devices. Exit trim mounts to a specific device chassis, so match the trim to the device family already on the door.
6) I need the outside lever to be electrically controlled rather than always free like the 940L-BE. What do I order?
The 940L-BE is a mechanical passage function trim, so the lever is always free and there is nothing to control from an access system. For electrified control, Command Access builds exit trim with 12V/24V operation and fail safe or fail secure options: the 230L is the electrified version of the Von Duprin 230L trim for V96/36/23 Series devices, and the ET15, ET25 and ET26 cover their own series, with the ET26 built Grade 1 and field reversible. Falcon offers the 510L-FSA/FSE, an electrified heavy duty lever trim for the Falcon 25 Series. Dormakaba's E-Plex 201U and PowerPlex P201U are pushbutton exit trims if you want credential control at the door rather than wiring to a panel.
7) Which lever exit trim should I use instead of the 940L-BE if I need the lever to stay locked and be released by key?
The 940L-BE is passage function, meaning the lever always retracts the latch with no key on the trim side. If the outside must stay secured, choose a keyed function trim instead: the Design Hardware KIL storeroom trim is a Grade 1 storeroom function trim with a Schlage C keyway and flat lever for 1000 and 2000 series devices, the Tell EDELT80 is a storeroom function escutcheon lever trim for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, and the Pamex E9000 is a Grade 1 storeroom function heavy duty trim with an L3 lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Sargent 704ET is a Grade 1 heavy duty night latch lever trim where the key retracts the latch. Each of these mounts to its own device family, so confirm the device before ordering.
8) Is the Falcon 212L the same thing as the Von Duprin 940L-BE?
They are both blank escutcheon lever trims, but they are not interchangeable. The Von Duprin 940L-BE is a Grade 1, heavy duty trim for the 94/95 Series with a lever and blank escutcheon and a 2 3/32 inch (75 mm) projection. The Falcon 212L is a blank escutcheon lever trim for the Falcon 20 Series and is rated medium duty. Because each is cut for its own device chassis, the 212L will not mount on a 94 or 95 Series device and the 940L-BE will not mount on a 20 Series device.
9) What is the difference between the 940L-BE passage trim and a dummy trim like the Detex 02BN?
The 940L-BE is a passage function lever trim: the lever turns and operates the device so the opening can be used from the outside without a key. The Detex 02BN is a dummy S-lever trim with a blank escutcheon for Value Series devices, and a dummy lever is fixed decoration only, it does not operate anything. The Dexter ED1500T dummy trim with handle pull plate is the same idea on the ED1500 platform. If someone must get through the door from the outside, a dummy trim is not a substitute for a passage trim.
10) For a classroom door, is the 940L-BE the right trim or do I need something else?
A classroom opening normally needs the outside lever to lock, which the 940L-BE cannot do because it is passage function. Classroom function trims in the same category include the Falcon 510L, a heavy duty classroom trim with a lever handle for the 24/25 Series, and the Falcon 179L, a medium duty classroom lever control trim for the 1790 Series. The Accentra 446F is a Grade 1 classroom function trim with the Augusta lever, and the Dexter ED1000T-CLRM-TP-NC is a Grade 1 classroom trim in a thumbpiece and pull plate configuration, less cylinder. Use the 940L-BE only where the classroom side is meant to stay free at all times.
11) How far does the 940L-BE lever stick out from the door face?
Projection is 2 3/32 inches (75 mm) off the door face. That matters where the door swings into a corridor with a clearance requirement, where a pair of doors sits close to a wall return, or where carts and beds pass through, which is exactly the traffic the 94/95 recessed push pad platform is built for. Use that number when you are checking the lever against a door stop, an adjacent frame, or a wall-mounted holder.
12) Do I need to buy a cylinder with the 940L-BE?
No cylinder is needed and none is supplied. The blank escutcheon is a solid plate with no cylinder prep, so there is nothing to key. That also means a locksmith cannot later add a cylinder to this trim to make it keyed; if the function on that opening changes, you replace the trim with a keyed one, not the cylinder.
13) What lever styles and finishes can I get on the Von Duprin 940L lever trim?
Five lever designs: 03, 06 (the standard), 07, 17, and the M52. Ten finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 622 matte black, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 643E aged bronze, 693/SPBLK black painted, and 695/SP313 dark bronze. For a facility standardizing across openings, 06 lever in 626 satin chrome is the common commercial default and the easiest to match to existing Von Duprin trim.
14) Is the Von Duprin 940L-BE trim heavy duty enough for a hospital or school corridor?
It is Grade 1, classified heavy duty, and specified commercial. The 94/95 devices it fits are recessed into the door to take abuse from carts and equipment, which is why the platform shows up in hospitals and other high volume facilities. For a corridor door cycling all day, this is the right duty class.
15) The 940L-BE has no cylinder. Which comparable trims are night latch style if I want key access from outside?
The 940L-BE ships without a cylinder because passage function does not use one. If the outside needs to be locked with key entry, night latch trims are the closer fit: the Sargent 704ET is a Grade 1 heavy duty night latch lever trim with field reversible operation on the 700 Series, and the 704-ETL is the PE Series night latch lever trim with key retract. The Sargent 744 is a Grade 1 freewheeling night latch trim where the key retracts the latch, for 8700 and 8900 series surface vertical rod and mortise devices. The Corbin Russwin VT957ET is a nightlatch escutcheon trim in stamped or formed stainless steel for ED5000 Series, and the Dorma YR03R is a wide stile nightlatch escutcheon lever trim supplied less cylinder.
16) What passage function lever trim works with an Arrow or Marks exit device instead of the 940L-BE?
The 940L-BE is a passage function lever trim for Von Duprin 94/95 Series devices. On an Arrow ED910, S1150 or S1250 device the passage function trim is the Arrow SRX01, which uses a Sierra lever with a rose rather than an escutcheon. The Marks USA M195N is a passage leverset trim with a lever and rose for the M195N Series. If the escutcheon look matters for matching other openings, note that both of those are rose trims while the 940L-BE carries a blank escutcheon.
17) The 940L-BE is handed and reversible. Which comparable trims also handle both left and right hand doors?
The 940L-BE is handed and reversible, and is stocked in LHR left hand reverse and RHR right hand reverse. Among comparable trims, the Sargent 704ET is field reversible and the Command Access ET26 is a Grade 1 electrified trim with a field reversible design. Reversibility matters when a property is buying one part number for a mix of openings rather than tracking hand door by door.
18) What should I use instead of the 940L-BE if the outside needs keyed entry rather than free passage?
Keyed entry trims lock the outside lever and release it with a key, which the passage function 940L-BE does not do. Comparable entry function trims include the Tell EDELT53 escutcheon lever trim for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the Design Hardware KIL entry trim with Schlage C keyway and flat lever for 1000 and 2000 series devices, and the Design Hardware LE08, a Grade 1 entry function trim with a flat lever and escutcheon for the 1000R and 2000R devices. The Delaney 500L is an entrance function exterior lever trim offered in CT, MD and SD lever styles. If a thumbpiece suits the door better than a lever, the Tell EDTHP53 is the entry function thumbpiece trim.
