Von Duprin QEL9927EO US26D 36 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Von Duprin CX9957EO fit a 36 inch wide door, and what door widths does it cover?
The CX9957EO is a 36 inch device, and the 9957 device lengths cover doors from 2'10" to 4' (864 mm to 1219 mm). Mount it with the device centerline at 39 13/16" (1011 mm) from finished floor. It is field reversible, so handing is set on site.
2) What door thickness does the CX9957EO screw pack cover?
The included screw pack covers metal or wood doors from 1 3/4" (44mm) to 2 1/4" (57mm) thick, and 325 SNB sex nuts and bolts are supplied for the top and bottom latch. For thicker leaves, 425 SNB is the optional substitute.
3) Will the CX9957EO work on a door taller than 84 inches?
Standard 1/2" square tubing rods ship for 7' (2134mm) doors, with a 34 15/16" (887mm) top rod and 31 1/2" (794mm) bottom rod. Above 7', order extension rods in 1' (205mm) or 3' (914mm) lengths, or a one-piece top rod for 8' (2438mm) and 10' (3048mm) doors. The device as configured here is set up for an 84 inch door height.
4) What does three-point latching actually get me over a standard rim exit device?
Three-point latching secures the door at the head, the threshold, and the strike jamb instead of at one point. The top and bottom bolts are deadlocking anti-friction with a 5/8" (16mm) throw, and the rim bolt is deadlocking with a 3/4" (19mm) throw. A plain rim device latches only at the jamb, which is fine for most openings but does not pull a tall or warped leaf tight top and bottom.
5) How does the 15 second delayed egress on the CX9957EO behave, and what is EO/DT/NL?
The CX device delays egress 15 seconds after the pushbar is pressed before the door releases, for secured openings where a timed delay is permitted by the authority having jurisdiction. It ships configured for EO/DT/NL with field-selectable functions: exit only (no outside trim), dummy trim, or night latch (key retracts the latch from outside). As listed it is the exit-only arrangement.
6) Will this exit bar cover the 161 cutout on my existing hollow metal door?
Yes. The grooved case is made to cover stock hollow metal doors prepped with 86 or 161 cutouts, so an existing cylindrical or mortise prep sits behind the device rather than needing a filler plate.
7) Is the CX9957EO handed, or can I set the hand in the field?
Non-handed as supplied and field reversible at 36 inches. The exception is SD (special dogging) or SS (signal switch) options, which make the device handed, so those have to be specified for the correct hand at order.
8) How far does the pushbar stick out into the corridor?
Projection is 3 13/16" (97mm) at rest and 3 1/16" (78mm) depressed. Worth checking against corridor clear width and any wall-mounted stop or adjacent leaf. The center case measures 8" x 2 3/4" x 2 3/8" (203mm x 70mm x 60mm), the mechanism case 2 1/4" x 2 1/4" (57mm x 57mm), and each latch case 4 1/2" x 2 1/8" x 1 1/2" (114mm x 54mm x 38mm).
9) Which finishes and operation options does the CX9957EO come in?
Two finishes, 626 satin chrome and 628 aluminum, each available as less dogging delayed egress or as less trim with quiet electric latch retraction. The QEL version pulls the latches electrically for access control or scheduled unlocking; the less dogging version is mechanical delayed egress only. Delayed egress devices do not mechanically dog, which is why the less dogging build is the standard one here.
10) Is this device Grade 1 and is it listed as panic hardware?
The CX9957EO is Grade 1 and UL listed for panic exit hardware, which is what a spec calling for Grade 1 panic hardware on a commercial egress door is asking for.
11) Are rod guards included with the CX9957EO or do I order them separately?
Rod guards are included. They shield the exposed vertical rods from carts, tampering, and impact, which matters on warehouse, school, and multi-tenant openings where surface rods take abuse.
12) Can I add outside trim later if I order the exit-only version?
The device ships exit only but the function is field-selectable among EO, DT, and NL, so a night latch or dummy trim arrangement can be set up on site. Trim itself is a separate order; the less trim QEL build is supplied without it.
