Von Duprin 9847EO 3 US26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Von Duprin 9847 concealed vertical rod device work on a wood door?
No. The 9847 is built for metal doors only, so a wood opening needs a different device. If the door is wood, the BEST Precision 2701 Series is a wide stile concealed vertical rod device made for wood doors. Worth noting the fasteners shipped with the 9847 cover wood or metal doors 1-3/4 inch and 2-1/4 inch thick, but the device itself is specified for metal.
2) Do I have to specify a hand when I order a Von Duprin 9847 exit device?
The 9847 is non-handed as built, so the mechanism itself does not care which way the door swings. Ordering still asks for RHR or LHR, and two options do force the hand: SD (special center case dogging) and SS (signal switch). Pick either of those and the device becomes handed, so get the swing right before you commit.
3) Can a concealed vertical rod exit device secure a pair of doors without a mullion?
Yes, and that is the main reason to pick one. A concealed vertical rod device like the 9847 latches at the head and at the threshold rather than into a strike on the jamb, so a pair of doors is secured with a clear opening between them and no removable mullion to store or reinstall. The rods run inside the door, so nothing is exposed on the face. Trade-off: the door has to be prepped for concealed rods, which is why this is a metal door product and why a surface rod or a rim device with a mullion is the simpler retrofit on an existing opening.
4) What size door does the 9847-3ft cover, and what is the latch engagement?
The 9847-3ft is the 36 inch device, sized for a 3 foot door leaf. Both the top and bottom latches throw 3/4 inch, so the top strike at the frame head and the bottom strike or floor prep have to be set to take a 3/4 inch bolt. The bottom bolt on the 47-type mechanism is 5/8 inch.
5) How do I dog down a Von Duprin 9847 so the door stays push-open during business hours?
Hex key dogging is standard, so the push pad holds the latches retracted with an Allen wrench. If you would rather not hand out hex keys, order CD for cylinder dogging, or CDSI / HDSI to add a security indicator that shows at a glance whether the device is dogged or secure. DI and CI give a dogging indicator without the full security package. Two other choices matter: SD is special center case dogging, and LD is less dogging, which is what you order when the authority having jurisdiction does not permit dogging on the opening.
6) Can the Von Duprin 9847 be tied into an access control system?
Yes, and there are two separate decisions. For remote unlocking, order electric latch retraction: EL, QEL (quiet electric latch retraction), or PN for pneumatic. For monitoring, order a switch: RX request-to-exit, LX latchbolt monitor, LX-RX for both, RX-2 for a double RX, RX-LC low current, WP-RX waterproof, or SS signal switch. Alarm kits are available as ALK, RX-ALK and LXRX-ALK. Note that SS makes the device handed.
7) Does the Von Duprin 9847 meet the 5 pound ADA operating force requirement?
Only with the AX option. Ordered as an accessible device, the 9847 meets the 5 lb. force requirement per 2010 ADA Chapters 404.2.7 and 30934 and the 2013 California Building Code Chapter 11B-309.4. Without AX you are on the standard push force. On an accessible route or a California job, specify AX at order time.
8) The opening needs a fire-rated concealed vertical rod device - what should be used instead of the 9847?
The 9847-3ft is a non-fire-rated device, so a labeled opening needs a different part. The Adams Rite 3600 Series is a fire-rated Grade 1 concealed vertical rod device for hollow metal doors in a wide stile chassis, and the Adams Rite 3900 Series is a fire-rated Grade 1 wide stile concealed vertical rod device carrying a 1-1/2 hour rating. On the Sargent side, the 12-MD8613 is a fire-rated Grade 1 wide stile concealed vertical rod device in classroom function. All three stay in the wide stile concealed vertical rod family the 9847 belongs to.
9) The door is a narrow stile aluminum storefront - which concealed vertical rod device fits instead of the 9847?
The 9847-3ft is a wide stile device, so a narrow stile aluminum door needs a narrow stile chassis. The Adams Rite 8600 Series is a narrow stile concealed vertical rod exit device built for aluminum doors, Grade 1 and non-fire-rated. Other narrow stile options in the same concealed vertical rod class are the Corbin Russwin ED4800, Grade 1 for 1-3/4 inch doors and available exit only or accepting trim, the DORMA 9600BB in 36 inch, Grade 1 narrow stile pushpad for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Falcon 24-C at 36 inches, Grade 1 narrow stile exit only.
10) What is the closest wide stile concealed vertical rod equivalent to the Von Duprin 9847 for a metal door?
The Corbin Russwin ED5800 is the nearest wide stile match. It is a Grade 1 concealed vertical rod exit device with a wide stile chassis and a 1-3/4 inch door thickness range, the same thickness the 9847-3ft is built for, and it is offered exit only or accepting trim, which covers the same EO and lever-trim ground the 9847 covers. The DORMA 9100 is a second wide stile Grade 1 concealed vertical rod device with a pushpad, matching the 9847 push pad style, and it carries a 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range. Both are non-fire-rated devices in the same class as the 9847, which is also non-fire-rated.
11) How much does a Von Duprin 9847 stick out from the door face?
Projection is 3-13/16 inches off the door face. That is the number to check against a corridor width, an adjacent wall return, or a door that swings back against something. The push pad center case runs 8 x 2-3/4 x 2-3/8 inches.
12) What is the difference between a Von Duprin 9847 and a 9947?
The case. The 9847 has a smooth mechanism case and the 9947 has a grooved one. Function, latching, and stile requirement are the same wide stile concealed vertical rod arrangement; the choice is architectural. If a building already runs one look across its openings, match it so the doors read consistently.
13) What trim options can I order with the Von Duprin 9847?
Seventeen trim functions: exit only (EO), dummy trim (DT), night latch (NL) and NL with optional pull, thumbpiece (TP and TP-BE), thumbturn (TL and TL-BE), knob (K, K-BE, K-DT, K-NL) and lever (L, L-BE, L-DT, L-KC, L-NL). Exit only means push to get out with no outside operation at all. Night latch gives key access from outside. If you order any L trim, you also pick the lever style: 01, 02, 03, 05, 06 (default), 07, 17 or 18.
14) How do I get delayed egress on a Von Duprin 9847?
Order the CX (CHEXIT) option. It holds the door secure for 15 seconds after someone pushes the bar while a nuisance alarm sounds, which is what NFPA and IBC call for on delayed egress openings. That is a factory option, not a field add-on to a standard device, so specify it up front on any opening where the facility needs controlled exit.
15) Is the Von Duprin 9847 heavy enough for a school or hospital corridor?
It is built for exactly that. Certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3 2014 Grade 1, the highest grade in the standard, with a heavy-duty wide stile push pad intended for high use and abuse, and specified commercial rather than residential. UL listed for panic exit hardware to ANSI/UL 305, with ANSI/UL 10C, CAN/ULC-S104 and CAN/ULC-S132 covered across the series. For a labeled fire door in that same building you will need a fire-rated device instead.
16) The doors are 2-1/4 inch thick - which concealed vertical rod devices list that range?
The DORMA 9100 Series wide stile pushpad device and the DORMA 9600BB narrow stile pushpad device both carry a 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range, and both are Grade 1 heavy duty concealed vertical rod devices. The 9847-3ft is specified at 1-3/4 inch door thickness and ships with fasteners for wood or metal doors 1-3/4 inch and 2-1/4 inch thick.
17) Is there a simpler exit-only concealed vertical rod device if no lever or key trim is needed?
Yes. The 9847-3ft is ordered with a trim function that includes exit only as well as knob, lever, thumbpiece, thumbturn and night latch configurations. If the opening only needs push-to-exit, the BEST Precision 2601 Series is an exit only narrow stile concealed vertical rod device and is non-handed, the Falcon 1690EO is a 3 ft narrow stile exit only device for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the CRL Jackson 1085 Series is a non-handed wide stile concealed vertical rod panic device in exit only function at 48 inches.
18) Which of the comparable concealed vertical rod devices is not a functioning exit device?
The Falcon 1491DT is dummy function - it is a 42 inch narrow stile concealed vertical rod device with dummy trim and a 9970 pull, so it provides the matching appearance on an inactive leaf rather than panic operation. The 9847-3ft is a functioning device, and its DT dummy trim and blank escutcheon trim options are trim selections on a working exit device, not the same thing as a dummy unit.
19) For standardizing a facility on Grade 1 concealed vertical rod hardware, which alternatives hold the same grade?
The 9847-3ft is certified ANSI/BHMA Grade 1. Grade 1 concealed vertical rod peers include the Adams Rite 3600, 3900 and 8500 Series, the Corbin Russwin ED4800, ED5800 and ED7800, the DORMA 9100 and 9600BB, the Falcon 1690EO, 1990EO, 24-C and 1491DT, and the Sargent 12-MD8613 and MD8613F-LTRIM. Within that group the wide stile devices - Adams Rite 3600, 3900 and 8500, Corbin Russwin ED5800, DORMA 9100 and Sargent 12-MD8613 - share the 9847's wide stile chassis, while the rest are narrow stile.
20) Which concealed vertical rod device besides the 9847 comes with hex dogging on a 36 inch metal door with lever trim?
The Sargent MD8613F-LTRIM is a Grade 1 heavy duty concealed vertical rod device for metal doors at 36 inches by 84 inches, supplied with lever trim and hex dogging. The 9847-3ft is a 36 inch device with hex key dogging standard and lever trim among its ordering options, so the two land on the same 36 inch metal door opening with the same dogging method.
21) Is there a concealed vertical rod device that fits narrow, medium and wide stile doors in one part?
The CRL Jackson 1285 push pad concealed vertical rod panic exit is offered for narrow, medium or wide stile doors and is exit only function. The 9847-3ft is a wide stile push pad device only, so where a single part number has to cover mixed stile widths across a building, the 1285 spans that range while the 9847 stays on wide stile openings.
22) Does a classroom function concealed vertical rod device exist as an alternative to specifying trim on the 9847?
Yes. The Sargent 12-MD8613 is a Grade 1 wide stile concealed vertical rod device supplied in classroom function and fire rated. The 9847-3ft reaches its outside operation through trim function selection - lever, knob, thumbpiece, thumbturn, night latch and key capture variants - rather than being ordered as a named classroom device, and it is not fire rated.
23) What finishes does the Von Duprin 9847 come in for matching existing doors?
Twelve finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 619 satin nickel, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 628 aluminum, 630 satin stainless steel, 643E aged bronze, 710 dark bronze anodized, and 711 flat black. For matching a fleet of openings, order by the BHMA number rather than the name, since brands describe the same number differently.
24) What push bar options are available on the Von Duprin 9847?
Beyond the standard bar, four: BR braille pushbar, KN knurled bar, RSS emergency exit push bar, and SG safety glow. Knurled bar is the tactile warning surface some jurisdictions require on a door to a hazardous area; safety glow helps the bar be found in a smoke or power-loss condition. Braille addresses signage requirements on the bar face itself.
25) Is there a quieter version of the Von Duprin 9847 for a hospital or a residence hall?
Yes, two things to order. QM (quiet mechanical) uses a fluid damper that decelerates the push pad return stroke so the bar does not slap back. For the electric side, QEL is the quiet electric latch retraction option instead of standard EL. On overnight-occupancy openings, corridors outside patient rooms or dorm floors, specify both.
26) What is the difference between the BEST Precision 2801 and the 9847 for a wide stile opening?
The BEST Precision 2801 Series is a wide stile concealed vertical rod exit device, the same chassis class as the 9847-3ft wide stile push pad device. The 2801 sits in the 2800 Series, while the companion 2701 in the 2700 Series is the reversible wood door version, so on a metal door the 2801 is the one that parallels the 9847.
