  • Non-Handed Configuration: Standard non-handed design simplifies specification and installation; note that options SD (special dogging) or SS (signal switch) will require handing designation.
  • Hex Key Dogging: Equipped with hex key dogging for convenient hold-open functionality in appropriate applications.
  • ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 Certified: Certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3 2014 Grade 1, the highest industry standard, along with ANSI/UL 305 and CAN/ULC-S132 compliance. Fire-rated configurations also meet ANSI/UL 10C and CAN/ULC-S104 requirements.

Von Duprin 9950WDCEO 3 US26 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the 9950WDC concealed vertical cable device handed?
Non-handed as standard, so one device covers either swing. Two options change that: SD special center case dogging and SS signal switch both require a hand to be designated. When you order, RHR (right hand reverse) and LHR (left hand reverse) are the two handing choices.
2) Can I use the 9950WDC on a 36 inch wood door with a narrow stile?
No. It is a wide stile device sized for a 36 inch door, so the stile has to be wide enough to carry the wide push pad case. For an aluminum or narrow stile leaf, look at the Adams Rite 8600 Series narrow stile concealed vertical rod device or the Corbin Russwin ED4800 narrow stile Grade 1 device for 1-3/4 inch doors.
3) Will a concealed vertical rod device work on a pair of wood doors without a mullion?
Yes. A concealed vertical cable device like the 9950WDC latches at the head and the sill rather than into a strike on the frame edge, so a pair of doors can be secured with no center mullion. The latch throw is 3/4 inch, and case projection off the door face is 3-13/16 inches, which is what you check for clearance against side walls and adjacent leaves.
4) Can I tie this Von Duprin exit device into an access control system?
Yes. Switch options include RX request to exit, LX latchbolt monitor, LX-RX combination, WP-RX waterproof RX, RX-LC low current RX, RX-2 double RX, SS signal switch, and the ALK alarm exit kit variants. For remote unlocking, electric latch retraction is available as EL, QEL quiet electric latch retraction, or PN pneumatic. Specify the switch and retraction at order time; SS requires handing.
5) My opening is 48 inches wide. Is the 9950WDC-3ft still the right size?
No. This one is the 36 inch device. For a wider leaf, the CRL Jackson 1085 Series is a 48 inch non-handed wide stile concealed vertical rod panic device, exit only. Von Duprin also builds the 9950WDC in longer case sizes, so ask for the size that matches your leaf width rather than trimming a 36 inch device.
6) The 9950WDC-3ft is not fire rated. What concealed vertical rod device can I use on a fire door opening instead?
The 9950WDC-3ft is a non-fire-rated panic device. For a labeled opening, the Adams Rite 3600 Series and the Adams Rite 3900 Series are both fire-rated Grade 1 wide stile concealed vertical rod exit devices, with the 3900 Series listed at a 1-1/2 hour rating; both are built for hollow metal doors in the 3600 Series case. The Sargent 12-MD8613 is another fire-rated Grade 1 wide stile concealed vertical rod device, supplied in a classroom function.
7) My door is 2-1/4 inches thick. Will the Von Duprin 9950WDC-3ft work, or do I need a different device?
The 9950WDC-3ft is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors, though its fastener pack covers wood or metal doors 1-3/4 inch and 2-1/4 inch thick. If you want a device whose published door thickness range spans that dimension outright, the DORMA 9100 Series is a Grade 1 wide stile pushpad concealed vertical rod device listed for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, as is the narrow stile DORMA 9600BB Series.
8) What is the closest wide stile concealed vertical rod exit device to the Von Duprin 9950WDC-3ft 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 door material and stile class as the 9950WDC-3ft, which is a wide stile concealed vertical cable device for wood doors in a 36 inch size and non-handed as standard. The 9950WDC-3ft carries ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 certification and a 3/4 inch latch throw.
9) How much room do I need for the 9950WDC center case on the door?
The center case measures 8 x 2-3/4 x 2-3/8 inches and the device projects 3-13/16 inches from the door face. Plan the wall-side clearance and any door-mounted signage or kick plate around those numbers before you set the mounting height.
10) Does the 9950WDC come with dogging, and what dogging options can I order?
Hex key dogging is standard. Other choices are CD cylinder dogging, CDSI cylinder dogging with security indicator, HDSI hex dogging with security indicator, SD special center case dogging, LD less dogging, DI dogging indicator, and CI cylinder dogging indicator. Note SD requires a handing designation.
11) What trim and outside lever functions can I order with the 9950WDC?
Trim functions run from EO exit only and DT dummy trim through knob versions (K, K-BE, K-DT, K-NL), lever versions (L, L-BE, L-DT, L-KC key capture, L-NL night latch), NL and NL-OP night latch with optional pull, and thumbpiece TP and TP-BE. If you pick an L trim, you also choose the lever design: 01, 02, 03, 05, 06 (default), 07, 17, or 18.
12) I need delayed egress on a wood door exit device. Can this one do it?
Yes, with the CX (CHEXIT) upgrade, which meets NFPA and IBC delayed egress requirements with a 15-second door hold and nuisance alarm. That is ordered as an upgrade to the device rather than a separate wall-mounted control.
13) What else could I use instead of the Von Duprin 9950WDC on a wide stile wood door?
Two close peers: the BEST Precision 2701 Series is a wide stile concealed vertical rod device that is reversible and built for wood doors, and the Corbin Russwin ED5800 is a Grade 1 wide stile concealed vertical rod device for 1-3/4 inch doors that accepts trim. The BEST Precision 2801 Series is another wide stile concealed vertical rod option.
14) Will the 9950WDC latch reliably into existing top and bottom strikes?
The latch throw is 3/4 inch, so the head and sill strikes have to be prepped for that engagement depth and aligned to the concealed cable device's latch positions. Swapping in over another manufacturer's concealed rod prep usually means new strikes rather than reusing what is in the frame and threshold.
15) What is the difference between the Von Duprin 9950WDC-3ft and the Corbin Russwin ED5800?
Both are Grade 1 wide stile concealed vertical rod exit devices for 1-3/4 inch doors. The ED5800 is catalogued as exit only and accepts trim in the ED5000 Series. The 9950WDC-3ft is a concealed vertical cable device for wood doors with a grooved 8 inch by 2-3/4 inch by 2-3/8 inch center case, a 3/4 inch latch throw, hex key dogging standard, and a 3-13/16 inch projection.
16) If I only need push-to-exit with no outside trim, is there a simpler alternative to the Von Duprin 9950WDC-3ft?
The 9950WDC-3ft can be ordered exit-only, but it is configured from a wide trim range including knob, lever, thumbpiece, night latch and dummy trim. If the opening never needs outside operation, dedicated exit-only devices include the Falcon 24-C Series, a Grade 1 narrow stile concealed vertical rod device at 36 inches, the Falcon 1690EO at 3 ft, and the CRL Jackson 1085 Series, a 48 inch non-handed exit-only concealed vertical rod panic device.
17) I need a crossbar-style concealed vertical rod device, not a push pad. What should I look at instead of the 9950WDC-3ft?
The 9950WDC-3ft is a push pad device. For a crossbar actuator, the Corbin Russwin ED7800 is a Grade 1 narrow stile crossbar concealed vertical rod exit device for 1-3/4 inch doors, exit only and accepting operator trim.
18) Is the Falcon 1491DT a substitute for a Von Duprin 9950WDC-3ft?
No. The Falcon 1491DT is a dummy trim narrow stile concealed vertical rod device supplied with a 9970 pull at 42 inches, so it is a non-latching dummy application. The 9950WDC-3ft is a working panic device certified to ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 with a 3/4 inch latch throw, though it can be ordered in dummy trim configurations if that is the intent.
19) How does the Sargent MD8613F-LTRIM compare with the Von Duprin 9950WDC-3ft?
The Sargent MD8613F-LTRIM is a heavy duty Grade 1 concealed vertical rod exit device for metal doors at 36 inches by 84 inches with hex dogging and lever trim, from the 80 Series. The 9950WDC-3ft also carries Grade 1 and hex key dogging as standard, and offers lever trim in several lever designs, but it is a concealed vertical cable device for wood doors in the 98 and 99 Series.
20) Is the BEST Precision 2601 a drop-in replacement for the Von Duprin 9950WDC-3ft?
Not for the same opening. The BEST Precision 2601 Series is an exit-only narrow stile concealed vertical rod device, non-handed. The 9950WDC-3ft is a wide stile device and is also non-handed in standard form, so the shared trait is handing rather than stile; a narrow stile chassis will not cover a wide stile prep.
21) What finishes does the Von Duprin 9950WDC exit device come in?
Twelve: 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 run of openings across a building, 626 and 630 are the usual institutional choices.
22) Can I get a push bar with braille or a glow finish on this device?
Yes. Bar options are standard bar, BR braille pushbar, KN knurled bar (the tactile warning bar often specified on hazardous-area doors), RSS emergency exit push bar, and SG safety glow pushbar. Push pad style is the device's standard configuration.
23) Is there a quieter version of this exit device for a library or patient corridor?
Yes, two paths. QM quiet mechanical is a yes/no option on the device itself, and if you are electrifying it, QEL quiet electric latch retraction replaces standard EL. Both are specified at order time on the 9950WDC.
