Von Duprin 9950WDCEO 4 US26 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What door thickness does the Von Duprin 9950WDC-4ft fit, and does it come with the right screws?
The device is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors, which is the standard commercial thickness. Fasteners ship with it for wood or metal doors 1-3/4 inch and 2-1/4 inch thick, so no separate fastener pack is needed for a standard wood door. If your openings are thicker than 1-3/4 inches, the DORMA 9100 Series wide stile concealed vertical rod device is listed for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors.
2) Will the 9950WDC latch into my existing strike prep?
Latch throw is 3/4 inch on this device. As a concealed vertical device it latches into a top strike at the head and a bottom strike at the sill rather than into a jamb strike, so the existing frame strike prep from a rim or mortise device will not carry over. Plan on head and threshold strikes.
3) Can I hold the 9950WDC unlocked during business hours?
Yes. Hex key dogging is standard, which holds the latchbolts retracted for free push/pull traffic. If you want key control of that instead, order CD cylinder dogging, or CDSI/HDSI to add a security indicator that shows whether the device is dogged. LD (less dogging) is also an option where the AHJ or the facility does not want dogging at all.
4) Can I tie this exit device into my access control system?
Yes. Electric latch retraction is available as EL, QEL (quiet), or PN pneumatic for remote unlocking. For monitoring, you can order RX request to exit, LX latchbolt monitor, LX-RX combined, WP-RX waterproof, RX-LC low current, or RX-2 double RX. Alarm kits (ALK, RX-ALK, LXRX-ALK) and the CX CHEXIT delayed egress package with a 15 second delay and nuisance alarm are also available.
5) Is this device strong enough for a high school or hospital corridor?
It is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3 2014 Grade 1, the top grade for panic exit hardware, and listed to ANSI/UL 305 and CAN/ULC-S132 for panic hardware. That is the level facilities standardize on for schools, hospitals and government buildings. Note it is not fire rated, so use it only on non-labeled openings.
6) Will a concealed vertical device secure a pair of doors without a mullion?
Yes. Because the 9950WDC latches at the head and at the sill rather than into a jamb, a pair of wood doors can be secured with a device on each leaf and no center mullion in the opening. That is the main reason to choose vertical rod or cable over a rim device, which needs a mullion on a pair.
7) The opening needs a fire label. What concealed vertical rod device should be used instead of the 9950WDC-4ft?
The 9950WDC-4ft carries a fire rating of No, so for a labeled opening look to a fire-rated concealed vertical rod device. The Adams Rite 3600 Series is a fire-rated Grade 1 wide stile concealed vertical rod device for hollow metal doors, and the Adams Rite 3900 Series is fire-rated Grade 1 wide stile with a 1-1/2 hour rating. On the wide stile metal side, the Sargent 12-MD8613 is a fire-rated Grade 1 wide stile concealed vertical rod device in classroom function. Note that the two Adams Rite devices and the Sargent are metal door products, so a labeled wood door will need a device listed for that door type.
8) Our doors are narrow stile aluminum, not wood. What replaces the 9950WDC-4ft there?
The 9950WDC-4ft is a wide stile device, so a narrow stile aluminum opening needs a different body. The Adams Rite 8600 Series is a narrow stile concealed vertical rod exit device for aluminum doors, Grade 1, non fire-rated. Other narrow stile concealed vertical rod options include the Corbin Russwin ED4800 Grade 1 narrow stile device for 1-3/4 inch doors and the Falcon 1690EO and 1990EO narrow stile devices, both Grade 1 exit only at 1-3/4 inch door thickness.
9) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to the Von Duprin 9950WDC-4ft for a wood door concealed vertical rod opening?
The BEST Precision 2701 Series is the nearest match in intent: it is a wide stile concealed vertical rod exit device described as reversible for wood doors, the same wood-door, wide-stile concealed vertical application the 9950WDC-4ft covers at 48 inches wide stile, Grade 1. The Von Duprin runs a concealed vertical cable mechanism and is non-handed in its standard configuration, while the Precision 2701 achieves both hands by being reversible, so confirm the hand at order time on either one.
10) Do I have to specify handing on the Von Duprin 9950WDC?
Standard configuration is non-handed, so for most orders handing is not a factor. It becomes required only when you pick SD (special center case dogging) or SS (signal switch). Handing choices are RHR and LHR.
11) Concealed vertical cable versus surface vertical rod on a wood door, which should I use?
Concealed vertical cable like the 9950WDC runs the latching hardware inside the door, so nothing hangs on the face and there is no rod to get kicked or vandalized. The tradeoff is door prep: the leaf has to be routed and prepped for concealed cable, which usually means specifying it with the door. Surface vertical rod (the 27 device on the same 98/99 platform) mounts to the face of an existing door and is the practical choice for a retrofit where you cannot rework the leaf.
12) How much does this exit device stick out into the doorway?
Projection is 3-13/16 inches from the door face, and the center case measures 8 x 2-3/4 x 2-3/8 inches. That matters where a corridor door swings toward a wall or where you are checking clear width in a tight vestibule.
13) What outside trim can I put on a 9950WDC, and is a classroom function available?
Trim functions run from exit only (no outside trim) through night latch, thumbpiece, knob and lever, including blank escutcheon, dummy, key capture and night latch variants. Classroom and storeroom functions are covered on 990 pull trim (99TP classroom, 99NL storeroom) and on 996 lever or knob trim. Lever style is selectable across 01, 02, 03, 05, 06, 07, 17 and 18 designs.
14) Is there an ADA-compliant version of the Von Duprin 9950WDC?
Yes, specify the AX accessible device option. AX is certified to the 5 lb force requirement under 2010 ADA chapters 404.2.7 and 30934 and 2013 California Building Code chapter 11B-309.4. For visually impaired users there are also BR braille and KN knurled pushbar options, plus SG safety glow.
15) What is the difference between the Von Duprin 9950WDC and the 9850WDC?
Mechanically they are equivalent heavy duty concealed vertical cable devices for wood doors. The difference is the mechanism case: the 9950WDC has a grooved case, the 9850WDC a smooth case. Pick whichever matches the look of the other openings in the building.
16) Is there another wide stile concealed vertical rod device for wood doors if I do not want Von Duprin?
The BEST Precision 2701 Series is a wide stile reversible concealed vertical rod device for wood doors. For wide stile concealed vertical rod in general, the Corbin Russwin ED5800 (Grade 1, 1-3/4 inch doors, exit only or accepts trim) and the DORMA 9100 Series pushpad (Grade 1, 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch) are the other wide stile options. Von Duprin's advantage here is the concealed cable mechanism and the breadth of electrified and dogging options.
17) The door is 36 inches, not 48. What are the options besides the 9950WDC-4ft?
The 9950WDC-4ft is sized for 48 inch openings. For a 36 inch door, the DORMA 9600BB is a 36 inch non fire-rated Grade 1 narrow stile pushpad concealed vertical rod device for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, the Falcon 24-C is a 36 inch Grade 1 narrow stile exit only device, and the Sargent MD8613F-LTRIM is a Grade 1 heavy duty concealed vertical rod device for metal doors 36 inches by 84 inches with hex dogging. Match the stile type and door material to the opening when choosing among them.
18) We only need free egress with no outside trim. Is there a simpler concealed vertical rod device than the 9950WDC-4ft?
Yes. The 9950WDC-4ft is configurable across a broad trim range including lever, knob, thumbpiece, night latch and dummy functions, which is more than an exit-only opening needs. For pure egress, the CRL Jackson 1085 Series is a 48 inch non-handed exit only concealed vertical rod panic device, matching the 48 inch size of the 9950WDC-4ft. The Corbin Russwin ED5800 is another wide stile Grade 1 device offered exit only or accepting trim, and the BEST Precision 2601 is a narrow stile exit only non-handed device if the stile is the constraint.
19) Which wide stile push pad concealed vertical rod devices from other brands compare directly with the Von Duprin 9950WDC-4ft?
The 9950WDC-4ft is a Grade 1 wide stile push pad concealed vertical rod device. Comparable wide stile Grade 1 devices include the DORMA 9100 Series, a heavy duty wide stile pushpad concealed vertical rod device rated non fire-rated for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, the Corbin Russwin ED5800 wide stile Grade 1 at 1-3/4 inch, the Adams Rite 8500 Series wide stile Grade 1 non fire-rated for hollow metal doors, and the BEST Precision 2801 wide stile concealed vertical rod device. The Von Duprin accommodates 1-3/4 inch doors and ships with fasteners for wood or metal doors 1-3/4 inch and 2-1/4 inch thick.
20) Can a Falcon 1491DT be used in place of the 9950WDC-4ft on the inactive leaf?
No, those are different animals. The Falcon 1491DT is a narrow stile dummy trim device with a 9970 pull at 42 inches, dummy function only, so it provides no latching or egress. The 9950WDC-4ft is a Grade 1 panic device with a 3/4 inch latch throw and hex key dogging standard. If a dummy look is wanted on a Von Duprin opening, the 9950WDC-4ft itself is configurable in DT dummy trim and other dummy-style trim functions rather than substituting a narrow stile device from another line.
21) We want a crossbar look instead of a push pad. What concealed vertical rod device gives that?
The 9950WDC-4ft is a push pad device. For a crossbar actuator, the Corbin Russwin ED7800 is a Grade 1 narrow stile crossbar concealed vertical rod device for 1-3/4 inch doors that accepts operator trim. The trade-off is stile type: the ED7800 is narrow stile while the Von Duprin is wide stile, so confirm the stile width of the door before switching.
22) Is the CRL Jackson 1285 a drop-in substitute for the Von Duprin 9950WDC-4ft?
Not a drop-in. The CRL Jackson 1285 is a push pad concealed vertical rod panic device offered for narrow, medium or wide stile in exit only function, so it does not carry the outside trim functions the 9950WDC-4ft supports, which include lever, knob, thumbpiece, night latch, key capture and blank escutcheon configurations. Use the 1285 where free egress with no outside operation is all the opening needs, and keep the Von Duprin where outside trim is part of the door schedule.
23) 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. 626 and 630 are the usual institutional choices when you are standardizing a building.
