Von Duprin XP98-F/XP99-F-3 Wide Stile Rim Fire Exit Device with Patented Smart Latch

Heavy-Duty Institutional Rim Fire Exit Hardware for Single and Double Doors

The Von Duprin XP98-F/XP99-F-3 is a wide stile, heavy-duty rim fire exit device engineered for demanding institutional environments including schools, hospitals, and government buildings. Certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3 2014 Grade 1 and UL listed for fire exit hardware (ANSI/UL 10C), this 36" device features Von Duprin’s patented 2-piece “smart” latch bolt design that changes shape under external force, enabling the door to withstand attack and remain secure. Designed for single and double doors—including configurations with the 9954-XP mullion—and compatible with wood or metal doors 1-3/4" thick, this device delivers the highest level of security and code compliance for fire-rated openings.

Professional Features & Benefits

  • Patented Smart Latch Technology: The XP 2-piece latch bolt design changes shape when subjected to external forces, enabling the exit door to withstand external attack and remain secure. The patented design also provides greater, longer-lasting latch bolt-to-strike contact that resists the twisting motion of a weakened frame.
  • Fire-Rated Certification: Certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3 2014 Grade 1 and UL listed under ANSI/UL 10C for fire exit hardware, as well as ANSI/UL 305, CAN/ULC-S104, and CAN/ULC-S132, ensuring full code compliance for fire-rated openings.
  • Wide Stile Heavy-Duty Push Pad Construction: The 98/99 Series features wide stile push pads with a center case measuring 8" x 2-3/4" x 2-3/8" and a latch throw of 3/4", built for high-use and high-abuse institutional applications.
  • Door Size & Thickness Compatibility: Sized for 36" doors with a door thickness of 1-3/4" and a product projection of 3-13/16". Fasteners are included for wood or metal doors 1-3/4" and 2-1/4" thick.
  • Non-Handed Design: The rim device is non-handed, simplifying specification and installation across a wide range of door configurations (except when the -2 Double Cylinder option is used).
  • Field-Selectable Functions: Product function is field selectable among EO (Exit Only), DT (Dummy Trim), and NL (No Lever) configurations. For TP, K, or L functions, simply remove the NL drive screw from the device.
  • Broad Device Type & Trim Options: The 98/99 Series supports rim, surface-mounted vertical rod (27), concealed vertical rod (47, 48), concealed vertical cable (49, 52), wood door concealed vertical rod/cable (47WDC, 50WDC), 3-point latching (57), and mortise lock (75) configurations. Popular trim options include the 990 pull trim and 996 lever/knob trim with multiple standard functions.
  • Retrofit & Upgrade Ready: Compatible with CDSI/HDSI security dogging indicators, QEL electronic latch retraction, RX (request to exit) and LX (latchbolt monitoring) electronic switches, AX accessible device option (certified to 5 lb. force ADA requirements), and CX CHEXIT delayed egress option meeting NFPA and IBC requirements.
  • Covers Standard Door Cutouts: Covers stock hollow metal doors with 86 or 161 cutouts on single doors and may cover cutouts on pairs (consult template for pairs).

Von Duprin VON-XP98-F-3-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is this exit device fire rated for a labeled opening?
Yes. The XP98-F/XP99-F is fire exit hardware, UL listed under ANSI/UL 10C and ANSI/UL 305, with CAN/ULC-S104 and CAN/ULC-S132 for Canadian work, and it is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3 2014 Grade 1. The F in the model designation is the fire designation. One consequence a lot of people get caught by: fire exit hardware has no dogging, so the latch stays projected at all times. If you want the door pushed open freely during business hours, you need an electrified option like QEL, not mechanical dogging.
2) Will this cover the existing 86 or 161 cutout in my hollow metal door?
On single doors, yes. The 98/99 center case covers stock hollow metal doors prepped with 86 or 161 cutouts, which is the usual situation when you are pulling a mortise lock or a cylindrical lock off an opening and putting a panic on it. On pairs it may cover the cutouts, but that one depends on the specific prep, so pull the template for pairs before you commit. The center case measures 8 x 2-3/4 x 2-3/8 inches.
3) How do I secure a pair of doors with a Von Duprin XP98 rim device?
A rim device latches into a strike, so on a pair you need something for it to latch into. The XP98/XP99 is set up for single and double doors including configurations using the 9954-XP mullion, which gives each leaf its own strike and lets you run two rim devices on the pair. If you cannot have a mullion in the opening, because you need the full clear width for equipment or beds, then a rim device is the wrong type and you want a vertical rod device instead: the 98/99 platform also comes as surface vertical rod (27), concealed vertical rod (47, 48), and concealed vertical cable (49, 52).
4) Does the Von Duprin XP98 need to be ordered handed?
The device itself is non-handed, so you do not hand the XP98/XP99 rim device when you order it. Two exceptions worth knowing. If you specify the -2 double cylinder option, the device is no longer non-handed. And several trims are handed even though the device is not: night latch trim, lever trim, lever with blank escutcheon, and lever night latch all come as LHR or RHR, so you have to know which way the door swings before you pick the trim.
5) What trim do I need to order with a Von Duprin 98/99 exit device, and can it be locked from outside?
Trim is a separate selection and it decides how the outside of the door behaves. Exit only (EO) means no outside trim at all, the door is always locked from outside. Dummy trim (990DT) is a fixed pull with no key. Night latch (990NL) is a keyed pull, standard for back doors and service entrances. For latching outside trim you have thumbpiece (990TP), knob (996K) and lever (996L) versions, with blank escutcheon and night latch variants of each. Lever trim takes a 06 lever by default, with 03, 07, 17 and Latitude levers available. Function on the device is field selectable among EO, DT and NL; for TP, K or L you remove the NL drive screw from the device.
6) What should I use instead of a Von Duprin XP98/XP99 on a narrow stile aluminum storefront door?
The XP98-F/XP99-F is a wide stile device with an 8 inch by 2-3/4 inch by 2-3/8 inch center case, which will not fit a narrow storefront stile. For a fire rated narrow stile opening, the Adams Rite 3700 Series is a 30 inch fire rated Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device with starwheel interlocking. Where the opening is not fire rated, the Adams Rite 8800 Series is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device covering 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness, and the Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a Grade 1 36 inch narrow stile rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors that accepts trim.
7) What is the closest fire-rated Grade 1 wide stile rim exit device to the Von Duprin XP98/XP99?
Among fire-rated peers, the Sargent 12-8810-LTRIM is the nearest match on the three specs that usually drive the substitution: it is listed Grade 1, fire rated, and wide stile, the same combination the XP98-F/XP99-F carries at Grade 1 with a fire rating and a wide stile push pad chassis. The Sargent is an 8800 Series device supplied with lever trim, RX and motorized electric latch retraction, so it lands as an electrified trimmed opening rather than a bare device; the Von Duprin is ordered EO, DT or NL field selectable with trim and electrical options chosen separately. On a fire-rated opening where the drawing calls for wide stile Grade 1, either satisfies the grade and rating line.
8) Is a Cal-Royal 5000 or A9800 rim exit device equivalent to a Von Duprin XP98/XP99?
They are not equivalent on the two specs a fire-rated institutional opening turns on. The Cal-Royal 5000 is a 36 inch heavy duty wide rim exit device with a Grade 2 chassis and no fire rating, and the Cal-Royal A9800 Series 36 inch exit only device is likewise listed Grade 2 heavy duty with no fire rating. The XP98-F/XP99-F is Grade 1 and fire rated, certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3 2014 Grade 1 and UL listed under ANSI/UL 10C. Where a school or hospital spec calls out Grade 1 fire exit hardware, the Cal-Royal devices do not meet that line.
9) What looks like a substitute for a Von Duprin XP98/XP99 but is not an exit device?
The SDC MSB550 Series 36 inch mechanical switch bar and the SDC SureExit PSB560 Series 36 inch pressure sense bar mount like a 36 inch push bar and fit narrow or wide stile doors, but they release an electromagnetic lock rather than latching the door themselves, and neither is fire rated. The XP98-F/XP99-F is a mechanical latching rim device with a 3/4 inch latch throw, Grade 1, and a fire rating. On a fire-rated opening the SDC bars are not an exchange for it.
10) What do I order instead of a Von Duprin XP98/XP99 rim device when the pair of doors has no mullion?
The XP98-F/XP99-F is a rim device and needs a strike, which on a pair means the 9954-XP mullion. Where a mullion cannot be used, a vertical rod device is the alternative: the Hager 4501 Series is a 36 inch Grade 1 concealed vertical rod exit device with a wide stile push pad, and the Hager 4601 Series is a 36 inch Grade 1 concealed vertical rod device in narrow stile. Neither Hager device is fire rated, so a rated pair calls for a fire-rated vertical rod device instead.
11) What is the XP smart latch and does it actually change anything on a real opening?
It changes what happens when someone attacks the door. The XP latch bolt is a patented two-piece design that changes shape under external force, so the door resists being pried or forced and stays latched. The second benefit shows up in older buildings: it holds longer latch bolt to strike contact, which resists the twisting motion of a frame that has already been racked or weakened. Latch throw is 3/4 inch. That is the reason to spec XP over a standard 98/99 on schools, courthouses and anywhere the exterior doors take abuse.
12) What is the difference between the Von Duprin 98 and 99 series?
Case style, and nothing else here. The 98 is the smooth case and the 99 is the grooved case, and both are offered on the same XP fire device in the same 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. If you are matching existing openings in a building, match the case style as well as the finish, because a grooved pad next to a smooth pad is obvious from down the corridor.
13) What are the alternatives to a Von Duprin XP98 for a 36 inch fire rated wide stile door?
For a fire rated wide stile rim device at 36 inches, the closest cross-brand options are the Sargent 8800 Series, which is fire rated Grade 1 wide stile and comes configured with RX and motorized latch retraction, and the Marks USA M9900F, a fire rated 36 inch exit only rim device with a panic protector end cap. The Orca Hardware OED85 Series is a fire rated 36 inch exit only rim device as well. What the XP98/XP99 carries that these do not state is the patented two-piece XP latch bolt and the full 98/99 option range: QEL, RX, LX, CX delayed egress, AX, and security dogging indicators.
14) Which electrified option do I pick for access control on a Von Duprin 98/99, EL, QEL or E?
It depends on which side of the door you are controlling. QEL is quiet electric latch retraction, the one to spec on a school or hospital corridor where the standard EL solenoid noise is a problem, and it pulls the latch back so the door pushes open from outside on a card read. E is electric locking and unlocking trim, which leaves the latch alone and controls the outside lever instead, so egress and latching are unaffected. RX is a request to exit switch that tells the panel someone pushed the pad, RX-2 gives two, and LX-LC is a low current latch bolt monitor that reports the bolt itself. ALK is the local alarm kit and WP-RX is the waterproof request to exit for an exterior opening.
15) Does the Von Duprin XP98 meet the 5 pound ADA push force requirement?
Only with the AX accessible device option specified. AX on the 98/99 is certified to the 5 lb. force ADA requirement. The standard device is not the AX device, so if the opening is on an accessible route and the specification calls out a maximum operating force, AX has to be on the order.
16) Can I get delayed egress on a Von Duprin 98/99 exit device?
Yes, through the CX CHEXIT option, which builds delayed egress into the device itself rather than hanging a separate box on the door. It meets NFPA and IBC requirements for delayed egress openings, which is what an institutional buyer needs for a controlled exit in a hospital, memory care unit or a retail back door. Note it is a device option, so it gets specified on the order, not added later in the field.
17) I need more than a rim device on this opening. Does the Von Duprin 98/99 come in other configurations?
The 98/99 platform runs well past rim. Beyond the rim device you can get surface vertical rod (27), concealed vertical rod (47 and 48), concealed vertical cable (49 and 52), wood door concealed vertical rod and cable (47WDC and 50WDC), three point latching (57), and a mortise lock version (75). That matters when you are standardizing a building: you can hold the same push pad look and the same trim across single doors, pairs without a mullion, and three point latching openings by moving down the same series rather than mixing brands.
18) Is there a simpler fire-rated rim exit device than the Von Duprin XP98/XP99 for a 36 inch opening?
Two fire rated 36 inch exit-only devices cover the plain case: the Orca Hardware OED85 is a 36 inch fire rated rim exit device in exit only function, and the Marks USA M9900F is a 36 inch fire rated rim device, exit only, with a panic protector end cap. Both are single-function devices with no trim selection to make. The XP98-F/XP99-F is a Grade 1 wide stile device with a field-selectable EO, DT and NL function and a 3/4 inch latch throw, so it is the choice when trim, electrification or a specific function has to be added later.
19) Difference between the Von Duprin XP98/XP99 and the Corbin Russwin ED5200 for a 36 inch opening?
Both are Grade 1 wide stile rim exit devices for a 36 inch door on 1-3/4 inch thick doors. The Corbin Russwin ED5200 is an ED5000 Series device in exit only that accepts trim, and it is not fire rated. The XP98-F/XP99-F is fire rated, non-handed, and field selectable among EO, DT and NL with TP, K and L reached by removing the NL drive screw. If the opening is in a fire-rated wall the ED5200 is out on the rating alone; on a non-rated wide stile opening the two line up on grade, stile and door thickness.
20) Which rim exit device should I pick over a Von Duprin XP98/XP99 when the door already runs on an access control system?
The XP98-F/XP99-F is ordered with electrical options including QEL quiet electric latch retraction, RX request to exit, LX latchbolt monitoring and the CX delayed egress option, so it is normally the device that gets electrified rather than replaced. Where the opening is non-rated and a factory-electrified device is preferred, the SDC S6136 Spectra S6000 Series is a 36 inch electrified wide stile rim exit device with a 4 inch stile for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Dormakaba E2103 is a 36 inch electrified rim device supplied with 4908A classroom-function trim. Neither of those is fire rated, so a rated opening stays with the Von Duprin.
21) Can a crossbar rim device replace a Von Duprin XP98/XP99 push pad device?
Only on a non-rated opening, and the look and feel change. The XP98-F/XP99-F uses a wide stile push pad style with a 3-13/16 inch projection. The Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 48 inch wide stile crossbar rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the CRL Jackson 1095 Series is a 48 inch crossbar rim panic device in exit only wide stile; neither is fire rated. A crossbar also reads differently from a push pad on a run of doors, so matching an existing fleet of 98/99 push pad devices means staying with a push pad style.
22) Which rim exit device matches a Von Duprin XP98/XP99 if the spec calls for a night latch function from the outside?
The XP98-F/XP99-F reaches night latch as one of its field selectable EO, DT and NL functions, with 990NL-R/V trim. Among peers, the Detex V4003A/03AN is a Grade 1 wide stile rim exit device supplied with night latch trim, and the Sargent 8504 is a Grade 1 night latch function rim device in a narrow design. The Sargent narrow stile chassis suits a slim stile the Von Duprin wide stile 8 inch by 2-3/4 inch case will not fit; the Detex is the wide stile counterpart.
