Von Duprin 9950WDCEO-F 4 US26 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Von Duprin 9950WDCF fit a 1-3/4 inch wood door?
Yes. The 9950WDCF-4ft is built for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the fasteners in the box cover wood or metal doors at 1-3/4 inch and 2-1/4 inch thickness. It's a wide stile device with a 48 inch case, so the door leaf needs enough face width to carry a 4 ft push pad. Projection off the face of the door is 3-13/16 inches, and the center case measures 8 x 2-3/4 x 2-3/8 inches.
2) Is the 9950WDC concealed vertical cable device fire rated, and what standards does it carry?
It is fire rated. The 9950WDCF-4ft is certified to ANSI/UL 10C and CAN/ULC-S104 for fire door assemblies, UL 305 and CAN/ULC-S132 for panic hardware, and ANSI/BHMA A156.3 2014 Grade 1. That combination is what a fire-rated egress opening in a school, hospital or government building needs. Note that fire-rated devices are supplied less dogging in service, so if you need hold-open passage, that belongs on a non-rated opening.
3) Do I have to specify handing on the Von Duprin 9950WDC, or is it non-handed?
The standard device is non-handed, so one unit covers a left or right hand reverse opening. Two exceptions: if you order SD (special center case dogging) or SS (signal switch), the device becomes handed and you must call out RHR or LHR. Handing is a required selection when ordering so the trim and any switch option are built correctly.
4) Why choose a concealed vertical cable device on a wood door instead of surface vertical rod?
The 50WDC cable mechanism runs inside the door, so there are no exposed rods down the face of the leaf to get kicked, painted over, or bent in a school corridor. It still latches at top and bottom, which is how it secures a pair of doors without a center mullion. The tradeoff is prep: the door has to be manufactured or routed for concealed cable, so on an existing door with no concealed prep, a surface vertical rod device is the practical retrofit.
5) What trim functions can I get with the 9950WDC, and what do I order for a classroom door?
Trim functions run from exit only through lever, knob, thumbpiece, night latch and dummy: DT, EO, K, K-BE, K-NL, L, L-BE, L-KC, L-NL, NL, NL-OP, TP and TP-BE. Outside trim is 990 pull or 996 lever/knob in Classroom, Storeroom, Dummy, Passage or Exit Only function. For a classroom opening you want a keyed lever trim, and if you pick an L option you also choose the lever design (06 is default, with 01, 02, 03, 05, 07, 17 and 18 also available).
6) What dogging and electrified options do I need to decide on when ordering this Von Duprin exit device?
Hex key dogging is the standard. Alternatives are CD cylinder dogging, CDSI or HDSI with a security indicator, SD special center case dogging, LD less dogging, DI dogging indicator and CI cylinder dogging indicator. Switch options include RX request to exit, LX latchbolt monitor, LX-RX, WP-RX waterproof, RX-LC low current, RX-2, SS signal switch, and ALK alarm exit kits. For access control you can add EL or QEL electric latch retraction, or PN pneumatic. Push bar choices are standard, BR braille, KN knurled, RSS emergency exit, or SG safety glow.
7) What's a comparable fire-rated Grade 1 concealed vertical rod device from another brand?
For a wide stile fire-rated Grade 1 concealed vertical rod, the closest peers we carry are the Sargent 12-MD8613 (8600 Series, classroom function, fire rated, Grade 1) and the Adams Rite 3600 and 3900 Series, both fire rated Grade 1 wide stile, with the 3900 carrying a 1-1/2 hour rating. Note the Adams Rite 3600 and 8500 are specified for hollow metal doors, where the Von Duprin 9950WDC is the wood door version. If your leaf is wood, the BEST Precision 2701 Series is the other wood door wide stile concealed rod option.
8) My door is aluminum with a narrow stile. Can I use the 9950WDC?
No. The 9950WDCF-4ft is a wide stile device built for wood doors, and a narrow aluminum stile won't take the case. For narrow stile aluminum, look at the Adams Rite 8600 Series concealed vertical rod (narrow stile, Grade 1, non-fire rated) or the CRL Jackson 1285 push pad device, which covers narrow, medium or wide stile. The Corbin Russwin ED4800 is another Grade 1 narrow stile concealed rod option for 1-3/4 inch doors.
9) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to the Von Duprin 9950WDCF-4ft concealed vertical exit device for a wood door?
The BEST Precision 2701 Series is the nearest wood-door match: it is a wide stile concealed vertical rod exit device described as reversible for wood doors, the same stile class and concealed vertical configuration as the 9950WDCF-4ft, which is wide stile with a 48 inch push pad case. The Von Duprin device is non-handed in standard configuration, while the Precision 2701 is specified as reversible.
10) Which concealed vertical rod exit device should I use if my opening is a hollow metal door instead of wood?
The Von Duprin 9950WDCF-4ft uses a concealed vertical cable mechanism purpose-built for wood doors. For hollow metal, the Adams Rite 3600 Series is a fire-rated Grade 1 wide stile concealed vertical rod device for hollow metal doors, and the Sargent MD8613F-LTRIM is a Grade 1 heavy duty concealed vertical rod device for metal doors at 36 inch by 84 inch with hex dogging - the same dogging style the Von Duprin carries as standard.
11) I have doors thicker than 1-3/4 inch - which concealed vertical rod device covers that range?
The Von Duprin 9950WDCF-4ft is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors, though its fasteners are included for wood or metal doors 1-3/4 inch and 2-1/4 inch thick. The DORMA 9100 Series lists a door thickness range of 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch as a wide stile Grade 1 concealed vertical rod device, and the DORMA 9600BB covers the same thickness range in narrow stile.
12) Will the 3/4 inch latch throw work with my existing top and bottom strikes?
The 9950WDC latches with a 3/4 inch throw at both the head and the threshold. If your frame already has a 99 Series top strike and a floor or threshold strike set for that engagement, the bolts will pick up. If the opening was previously rim or mortise hardware, you need new head and sill strikes prepped for vertical bolts, since a rim strike gives the vertical bolts nothing to catch.
13) Can I get this device to meet the 5 lb ADA push force requirement?
Yes, with the AX accessible option. AX is certified to the 5 lb force requirement under 2010 ADA Chapters 404.2.7 and 309, and 2013 California Building Code Chapter 11B-309.4. It's a selectable option at order, not standard, so it has to be called out. There's also a QM quiet mechanical option if noise on the opening matters.
14) I need delayed egress on a fire-rated wood door. Does this device support it?
The 9950WDCF-4ft accepts the CX CHEXIT delayed egress upgrade, which holds the door secure for 15 seconds after a request to exit while a nuisance alarm sounds, and meets NFPA and IBC delayed egress requirements. There's also an XP option with the patented 2-piece latchbolt if the opening sees abuse or attack attempts.
15) If the opening doesn't need a fire rating, is there a cheaper concealed vertical rod option?
A non-rated opening opens up devices without the fire label. Among what we stock, the DORMA 9100 Series is a Grade 1 wide stile pushpad concealed vertical rod, non-fire rated, for doors 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inches. The Adams Rite 8500 Series is another Grade 1 wide stile non-rated device, specified for hollow metal doors. Corbin Russwin's ED5800 is a Grade 1 wide stile concealed rod for 1-3/4 inch doors that accepts trim. Keep the fire-rated 9950WDCF where the door assembly is labeled.
16) Can I upgrade an installed 9950WDC later for access control without replacing the device?
The 98/99 platform is built around field-configurable options and retrofit kits. QEL quiet electronic latch retraction, RX request to exit, LX latchbolt monitoring, and CDSI/HDSI security dogging indicators are all available as retrofits, so a mechanical device installed today can be electrified later as the facility's access control changes rather than being torn off the door.
17) I need a fire-rated concealed vertical rod device with lever trim in classroom function - what are my options besides the Von Duprin 9950WDCF-4ft?
The Sargent 12-MD8613 is a fire-rated Grade 1 wide stile concealed vertical rod device supplied in classroom function. The Von Duprin 9950WDCF-4ft is also fire rated and Grade 1, and its trim functions include L - Lever and K - Knob variations along with night latch and thumbpiece options.
18) What is a simpler exit-only alternative if I do not need trim or dogging options on the door?
The CRL Jackson 1085 Series is a 48 inch non-handed concealed vertical rod panic device built as exit only, matching the 48 inch size and non-handed configuration of the Von Duprin 9950WDCF-4ft without trim function. The Corbin Russwin ED5800 is another wide stile Grade 1 concealed vertical rod device offered exit only or accepting trim.
19) What do I order if I only need matching inactive-leaf hardware rather than a functioning exit device?
A dummy option covers that. The Falcon 1491DT is a Grade 1 narrow stile concealed vertical rod device in dummy function at 42 inches with a 9970 pull. The Von Duprin 9950WDCF-4ft also lists DT - Dummy Trim among its trim functions if you want the wide stile 98/99 Series appearance on the inactive leaf.
20) My opening is a 44 inch or 36 inch leaf rather than 48 inch - what concealed vertical rod devices fit those widths?
The Von Duprin 9950WDCF-4ft is a 48 inch device. For narrower leaves, the Falcon 1990EO is a 44 inch exit only narrow stile concealed vertical rod device, the Falcon 24-C is a 36 inch Grade 1 narrow stile exit only device, and the DORMA 9600BB is a 36 inch narrow stile pushpad device. All three are narrow stile rather than wide stile.
21) What finishes does the Von Duprin 9950WDC come in for matching existing hardware?
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, 643E aged bronze, 710 dark bronze anodized and 711 flat black. For institutional corridors 630 satin stainless and 628 aluminum are the usual specs; 613 and 643E are the ones to pick when matching darker architectural trim.
22) Is a crossbar concealed vertical rod device an alternative to the push pad Von Duprin 9950WDCF-4ft?
They are different operating styles. The 9950WDCF-4ft uses push pads. The Corbin Russwin ED7800 is a Grade 1 narrow stile crossbar concealed vertical rod device, so it differs both in actuator style and stile class. The CRL Jackson 1285 is a push pad concealed vertical rod exit device offered for narrow, medium or wide stile, keeping the push pad style.
