Von Duprin 9849EO 4 US26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What door width and thickness does the Von Duprin 9849-4ft fit?
It is a 48 inch (4 ft) device built for wide stile doors at 1-3/4 inch thickness. Fasteners ship for wood or metal doors 1-3/4 inch and 2-1/4 inch thick. If your doors are aluminum storefront or otherwise narrow stile, this is the wrong case size; a narrow stile concealed vertical rod device like the Adams Rite 8600 Series or the Corbin Russwin ED4800 is the right family for that opening.
2) Do I have to specify a hand when ordering the Von Duprin 9849?
The device itself is non-handed, so the same unit works on either swing, with two exceptions: SD (special center case dogging) and SS (signal switch) are handed and must be ordered RHR or LHR. Handing is a required selection when ordering because those options and the outside trim need it.
3) Will the 9849 latch into my existing top and bottom strikes?
Latch throw is 3/4 inch at both the head and the threshold. As a concealed vertical device it engages a top strike in the frame head and a bottom strike or floor strike, so the existing strikes have to be located for a 3/4 inch throw and prepped for concealed cable operation. Retrofitting a surface vertical rod opening usually means new door prep, since the cables run inside the door.
4) Can the Von Duprin 9849 tie into an access control system?
Yes. RX request to exit and LX latchbolt monitor switches are available (including the LX-RX combination, RX-2 double RX, WP-RX waterproof, and RX-LC low current), and electric latch retraction is available as EL, QEL quiet electric latch retraction, or PN pneumatic. QEL is also offered as a retrofit kit for devices already installed.
5) What is a comparable Grade 1 wide stile concealed vertical rod exit device to the Von Duprin 9849-4ft from another manufacturer?
The Corbin Russwin ED5800 is a Grade 1 wide stile concealed vertical rod exit device built for 1-3/4 inch doors, and it is offered exit only or accepting trim, which lines up with the Von Duprin 9849-4ft's Grade 1 wide stile construction, 1-3/4 inch door thickness, and trim range that runs from EO exit only through lever, knob, thumbpiece and night latch functions. The DORMA 9100 is another wide stile Grade 1 pushpad concealed vertical rod device, rated heavy duty and covering 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors.
6) I need a 36 inch concealed vertical rod device instead of the 48 inch Von Duprin 9849-4ft. What are my options?
The 9849-4ft is a 48 inch device. For a narrower opening, the Falcon 24-C Series is a Grade 1 36 inch narrow stile exit only concealed vertical rod device for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Falcon 1690EO is a 3 ft narrow stile exit only device, and the DORMA 9600BB is a 36 inch narrow stile Grade 1 pushpad device. The Sargent MD8613F-LTRIM is a heavy duty Grade 1 concealed vertical rod device with hex dogging sized for 36 by 84 inch metal doors, which matches the 9849-4ft's hex key dogging standard.
7) Will the 9849 clear the door frame and adjacent wall once mounted?
Projection off the door face is 3-13/16 inches, and the center case measures 8 x 2-3/4 x 2-3/8 inches. That projection is what to check against pull-side wall returns, door stops, and anything mounted close to the opening. The push pad style device latches top and bottom through concealed vertical cables, so nothing projects into the opening beyond the case and pad.
8) What is the difference between the Von Duprin 9849 and the 9949?
Case finish, not function. The 9849 has a smooth mechanism case; the 9949 is the grooved case version of the same 98/99 Series concealed vertical cable device. Pick the one that matches the other exit devices already in the building so the openings look consistent.
9) How do I dog the 9849 open during business hours?
Hex key dogging is standard. If you want key control over dogging, order CD cylinder dogging, or CDSI / HDSI to add a security indicator that shows whether the device is dogged. LD (less dogging) removes it entirely, and SD is special center case dogging (which makes the device handed). DI and CI dogging indicator options are also available.
10) Does the 9849 meet the 5 lb operating force requirement for accessibility?
Only with the AX option. The AX accessible device upgrade is certified to the 5 lb force ADA requirement, and AX is a selectable option when ordering. A standard 9849 without AX is not offered against that force figure.
11) Can I get delayed egress on this Von Duprin device?
Yes, through the CX CHEXIT option. Configured that way the door stays secure for 15 seconds after a request to exit while a nuisance alarm sounds, which is how NFPA and IBC delayed egress is handled. That is the configuration to specify for behavioral health wings, retail stockrooms, and similar controlled openings.
12) What outside trim can I order with the Von Duprin 9849-4ft?
Fifteen trim functions are offered, covering exit only (EO), night latch (NL and NL-OP), knob functions (K, K-BE, K-DT, K-NL), lever functions (L, L-BE, L-DT, L-KC key capture, L-NL), thumbpiece (TP, TP-BE), and dummy trim (DT). If you choose an L trim you also pick the lever design: 01, 02, 03, 05, 06 (default), 07, 17, or 18.
13) I need a wide stile concealed vertical rod device for wood doors. Is the Von Duprin 9849 the right pick?
The 9849-4ft ships with fasteners for wood or metal doors 1-3/4 inch and 2-1/4 inch thick, so wood doors are covered. Other wide stile concealed vertical rod options ZenSupply carries include the BEST Precision 2701, which is specifically a wide stile reversible device for wood doors, the Corbin Russwin ED5800 (Grade 1, 1-3/4 inch doors), and the DORMA 9100 Series (Grade 1, 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch doors).
14) Can I add cylinder dogging or electric latch retraction to 9849 devices already installed in my building?
Yes on both counts. Retrofit kits are listed for CDSI/HDSI security dogging indicators and for QEL quiet electric latch retraction, plus CX CHEXIT delayed egress, the AX accessible upgrade, and the XP two-piece latchbolt. That is the practical reason facilities standardize on the 98/99 Series: the installed device can be upgraded rather than replaced.
15) I only need exit only function with no outside trim - is there a simpler alternative to the Von Duprin 9849-4ft?
The 9849-4ft does offer an EO exit only trim function alongside its keyed and lever options, but if the opening never needs outside trim, the CRL Jackson 1085 Series is a 48 inch non-handed wide stile concealed vertical rod panic device built as exit only, matching the 9849-4ft's 48 inch size and non-handed design. The BEST Precision 2601 Series is another exit only, non-handed concealed vertical rod device, built for narrow stile.
16) I want a crossbar look rather than a push pad - what is the alternative to the Von Duprin 9849-4ft?
The 9849-4ft is a push pad style device. If the specification calls for a crossbar instead, the Corbin Russwin ED7800 is a Grade 1 narrow stile crossbar concealed vertical rod exit device for 1-3/4 inch doors that accepts operator trim. Note it is narrow stile, so confirm the stile width on the door before substituting it for a wide stile opening.
17) Which non-fire-rated Adams Rite concealed vertical rod device is closest to the Von Duprin 9849-4ft?
The Adams Rite 8500 Series is a Grade 1 wide stile concealed vertical rod exit device for hollow metal doors with a fire rating of No, which aligns with the 9849-4ft's Grade 1 wide stile construction and non-fire-rated status. The two differ in series and in the option sets each manufacturer builds around them - the 9849-4ft is configured with hex key dogging as standard and a 3/4 inch latch throw.
18) Is the Falcon 1491DT a substitute for the Von Duprin 9849-4ft?
No. The Falcon 1491DT is a dummy trim narrow stile concealed vertical rod device with a 9970 pull at 42 inches - a dummy function has no active latching, and it is narrow stile. The 9849-4ft is a Grade 1 wide stile latching panic device at 48 inches with a 3/4 inch latch throw. The 9849-4ft does offer DT dummy trim among its trim functions if a matching inactive leaf is what you are after.
19) What concealed vertical rod device covers narrow, medium and wide stile doors if I am standardizing across mixed openings?
The CRL Jackson 1285 push pad concealed vertical rod panic device is listed for narrow, medium or wide stile doors in exit only function, which makes it a single part across mixed stile widths. The Von Duprin 9849-4ft is a wide stile device only, but it carries a broader trim range - lever, knob, thumbpiece, night latch and key capture among others - and Grade 1 certification if the openings need outside operating trim.
20) Will the 9849 match the finishes on the rest of my doors?
Twelve finishes are offered: 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 institutional corridors 630 and 626 are the usual standards to spec across a building.
21) What push bar options are available for high abuse or low light areas?
Beyond the standard bar, the 9849 can be ordered with KN knurled bar (tactile warning), BR braille push bar, SG safety glow push bar for low light egress paths, or RSS emergency exit push bar. The device is a push pad style unit.
