Von Duprin XP98-F/XP99-F-4 Rim Fire Exit Device 48" Wide Stile with Patented Smart Latch

Heavy-Duty Wide Stile Rim Fire Exit Device for High-Security Institutional Applications

The Von Duprin XP98-F/XP99-F-4 is a 48" wide stile rim fire exit device engineered for single and double doors requiring increased security in demanding institutional environments. Certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3 2014 Grade 1 and UL listed for fire exit hardware (ANSI/UL 10C), this device features Von Duprin's patented 2-piece “smart” latch bolt design that changes shape under external forces, enabling the door to withstand attack and remain secure. Compatible with the 9954-XP mullion for double-door applications, the XP98-F/XP99-F-4 accommodates door thicknesses of 1-3/4" and covers stock hollow metal doors with 86 or 161 cutouts on single doors.

Professional Features & Benefits

  • 48" Wide Stile Device: Designed for wide stile doors at 48" product size with a center case measuring 8" x 2-3/4" x 2-3/8", providing a robust and architecturally refined profile for institutional applications.
  • Door Thickness & Fastener Compatibility: Accommodates doors 1-3/4" thick; fasteners included for wood or metal doors 1-3/4" and 2-1/4" thick, ensuring versatile installation across common door constructions.
  • Patented Smart Latch Bolt Design: The XP patented 2-piece latch bolt changes shape when subjected to external forces, enabling the exit door to withstand external attack. The design provides greater, longer-lasting latch bolt-to-strike contact that resists the twisting motion of a weakened frame, keeping the opening strong and secure. Latch throw is 3/4".
  • Fire-Rated & Multi-Standard Certified: Certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3 2014 Grade 1, UL listed under ANSI/UL 10C (fire-rated), ANSI/UL 305, CAN/ULC-S104 (fire-rated), and CAN/ULC-S132, meeting the highest industry standards for fire exit hardware compliance.
  • Field-Selectable Functions: Product function is EO/DT/NL (field selectable); for TP, K, or L functions, simply remove the NL drive screw from the device, allowing on-site configuration without additional parts.
  • Non-Handed Design: The rim device is non-handed (except when the -2 Double Cylinder option is used), simplifying inventory management and installation across varied door configurations.
  • Retrofit & Upgrade Ready: Compatible with a wide range of retrofit options including CDSI/HDSI security dogging indicators, QEL electronic latch retraction, electronic switches (RX request-to-exit, LX latch bolt monitoring), AX accessible device (ADA 5 lb. force certified), and CX CHEXIT delayed egress meeting NFPA and IBC requirements.
  • Wide Device Type Availability: The 98/99 Series supports rim, surface-mounted vertical rod (27), concealed vertical rod with 5/8" bottom bolt (47), concealed vertical rod with 1-1/2" bottom bolt (48), concealed vertical cable (49), wood door concealed vertical cable (50WDC), 1-point concealed vertical cable (52), 3-point latching (57), and mortise lock devices (75).

Von Duprin VON-XP98-F-4-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Von Duprin XP98/XP99 rim exit device fit a 1-3/4 inch hollow metal door?
Yes, and 1-3/4 inches is the only thickness the XP98-F/XP99-F is built for, so it drops onto standard commercial hollow metal doors without an adapter. It covers stock hollow metal doors with 86 or 161 cutouts on single doors. Fasteners ship in the box for wood or metal doors 1-3/4 inch and 2-1/4 inch thick. If your opening is a wood door, this is the wrong device: the XP98/99 is not rated for wood door use.
2) Is the Von Duprin XP98/XP99-F fire rated for a labeled opening?
Fire rated, yes. The XP98-F/XP99-F is UL listed under ANSI/UL 10C and CAN/ULC-S104 for fire exit hardware, plus ANSI/UL 305 and CAN/ULC-S132 for panic hardware, and it is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3 2014 Grade 1. That combination is what a labeled door in a school or hospital corridor needs. Note that fire exit hardware cannot be dogged down, so plan on the device latching every time.
3) Will a Von Duprin rim exit device latch into my existing strike?
The XP98/XP99 throws a 3/4 inch latch bolt into a surface-mounted rim strike on the frame stop, and it projects 3-13/16 inches off the door face. The XP latch is a patented 2-piece design that changes shape under external force, so it holds contact with the strike even when the frame has been twisted or pried. If you are replacing another brand's rim device, plan on using the strike that ships with the Von Duprin rather than reusing the old one, because rim strike geometry is not interchangeable across manufacturers.
4) Can I use a rim exit device on a pair of doors with no mullion?
No. A rim device latches into a strike on the frame or on a mullion, so on a pair you need something to latch into at the center. For the XP98/XP99 the answer is the 9954-XP removable mullion, which turns the pair into two openings each taking a rim device. If you cannot use a mullion because the opening has to stay clear for equipment or gurneys, go to a vertical rod device instead: the 98/99 family covers surface vertical rod (27), concealed vertical rod (47 and 48), concealed cable (49 and 52) and 3-point latching (57), all of which latch at the head and sill instead of the center.
5) Do I have to order handing on the Von Duprin XP98/XP99 rim device?
The device itself is non-handed, so one part number covers both left and right hand reverse openings. Two things do carry handing: the -2 double cylinder option, and the trim. Night latch, lever and lever-with-night-latch trims (990NL-R/V, 996L-R/V, 996L-NL-R/V) are ordered LHR or RHR, so you still need to know which way the door swings before the order goes in.
6) What trim do I need to order with a Von Duprin 98/99 exit device to get in from outside?
Exit only means no outside operation at all, so if anyone needs to come back in you have to specify trim on the order. The choices are dummy trim (990DT) for a pull only, night latch (990NL-R/V) where a key retracts the latch, thumbpiece (990TP-R/V), knob (996K-R/V) and lever (996L-R/V), plus blank escutcheon and knob or lever night latch combinations. Levers come as 06 by default, with 03, 07, 17 and Latitude available. The device function is EO/DT/NL field selectable; for thumbpiece, knob or lever function you remove the NL drive screw from the device on site.
7) Can a Von Duprin 98/99 be electrified for access control or a card reader?
Yes, and the option you pick depends on what the access control system does. EL and QEL are electric latch retraction, so the reader pulls the latch and the door pushes free; QEL is the quiet version, which matters in a hospital corridor or a library. E is electric locking and unlocking trim, where the lever outside gets released instead. RX request-to-exit and LX latch bolt monitoring are switches that tell the panel the bar was pushed or the latch moved, and RX-2 gives you two RX contacts. CX CHEXIT is the delayed egress version meeting NFPA and IBC requirements, and ALK is a standalone local alarm kit.
8) What other 48 inch fire rated rim exit devices are there besides the Von Duprin XP98/XP99?
For a 48 inch labeled opening the closest alternative ZenSupply carries is the Marks USA M9900F 48 inch fire rated rim device, exit only with a panic protector end cap. Marks is a plainer device, exit only rather than field selectable across EO/DT/NL. If you want a fire rated rim device on a narrower leaf, Orca's OED85 and the Arrow FS1250 are 36 and 32 inch fire rated rim devices. Watch what you are comparing against: the Cal-Royal A9820 and the Corbin Russwin ED3200 are both 48 inch wide stile devices but neither is fire rated, so they do not go on a labeled door.
9) What rim exit device should I use on a narrow stile aluminum storefront door instead of the XP98/XP99?
The XP98-F/XP99-F-4 is a wide stile device with a center case of 8 inch by 2-3/4 inch by 2-3/8 inch, which needs the stile width a wide stile door provides. On a narrow stile aluminum door, the Adams Rite 3700 Series 30 inch is a narrow stile rim exit device that is Grade 1 and fire rated. If the opening does not require a fire rating, the Adams Rite 8800 Series 30 inch 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 narrow stile rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors that accepts trim.
10) Is a Cal-Royal A9820 48 inch rim exit device an acceptable substitute for a Von Duprin XP98/XP99 on a fire door?
No. The Cal-Royal A9820 is a 48 inch exit-only rim exit device carrying a Grade 2 rating with no fire rating, so it does not serve a fire-rated opening. The same applies to the Cal-Royal 5500 48 inch push bar device, which is Grade 2 and not fire rated. The Von Duprin XP98-F/XP99-F-4 is Grade 1 and fire rated. If the opening is not fire rated and a 48 inch exit-only device is all that is required, the Sargent 3828 is a Grade 1 reversible wide stile push bar rim device for 48 inch doors.
11) What looks like a rim exit device substitute for the XP98/XP99 but will not work the same way?
Three in the same aisle behave differently. The SDC SureExit PSB560 Series 36 inch is a pressure sense bar and the SDC MSB550 Series 36 inch is a mechanical switch bar that releases an electromagnetic lock - both are switch bars rather than mechanically latching rim devices, and neither is fire rated. The Detex Advantex 00 Series is a dummy exit device, so it has no working latch at all. The Von Duprin XP98-F/XP99-F-4 latches mechanically with a 3/4 inch latch throw and is fire rated.
12) What is the difference between the Von Duprin 98 and 99 series exit device?
Case style, nothing functional. The 98 is the smooth case and the 99 is the grooved case; both come in the same twelve finishes, from 605 bright brass through 626 satin chrome, 630 satin stainless, 643E aged bronze, 710 dark bronze anodized and 711 flat black. Pick whichever matches the other openings in the building, since specs, grade and fire rating are identical between them.
13) Which exit device meets the 5 lb ADA operating force requirement?
Order the XP98/XP99 with the AX accessible device option. AX is certified to the ADA 5 lb operating force, which is what you want on an accessible route or where a facility standard calls for reduced push force. The standard device does not carry that certification, so AX has to be on the order, it is not a field adjustment.
14) What is the XP smart latch on the Von Duprin XP98/XP99 actually protecting against?
Prying and frame distortion. The 2-piece latch bolt changes shape when force is applied to it, which keeps more latch bolt in contact with the strike than a conventional bolt holds once a frame has been twisted or spread. On a school exterior door or a back-of-house entry that gets attacked, that is the failure mode you are buying against. Standard 98/99 devices without the XP prefix use the conventional latch.
15) How much room does a push pad exit device take up on the door, and how big is the center case?
Figure 3-13/16 inches of projection off the door face for the XP98/XP99, which matters where the door swings past a wall return, a handrail, or into a tight vestibule. The center case measures 8 x 2-3/4 x 2-3/8 inches. Push pad style, so the pad depresses flat rather than a crossbar sweeping out; if you specifically need a crossbar look to match existing openings, the CRL Jackson 1095 Series is a 48 inch crossbar rim device, though it is not fire rated.
16) What options should I add for an exterior door or a high abuse opening?
Three worth specifying on the XP98/XP99. WH weep holes let water out of the device on an exterior application. SNB sex bolts pull the device through the door so it cannot be removed by attacking the fasteners from the push side, and SEC security screws do the lighter version of the same job. For access control monitoring on an exterior door, WP-RX is the waterproof request-to-exit switch rather than the standard RX. CDSI and HDSI dogging indicators are also available if the facility needs a visual check that a device is secured.
17) Is a Grade 1 exit device worth it over a Grade 2 for a school or apartment building?
On a high-traffic egress door, yes. The XP98/XP99 is ANSI/BHMA A156.3 2014 Grade 1, the top cycle and strength tier for exit devices, and it is fire rated on top of that. Grade 2 devices like the Cal-Royal 5000 and 5500 are built for lighter duty and are not fire rated, so they belong on interior non-labeled doors that see less use. Where the opening is a corridor exit, a stair door, or a main entry that gets hit hundreds of times a day, Grade 1 is what the spec will call for.
18) I need to standardize exit hardware across a whole facility. Does the Von Duprin 98/99 cover every door type?
That is the reason the 98/99 gets specified facility-wide. The same push pad and case cover rim (this device), surface vertical rod (27), concealed vertical rod with a 5/8 inch bottom bolt (47) or a 1-1/2 inch bottom bolt (48), concealed vertical cable (49), wood door concealed cable (50WDC), 1-point concealed cable (52), 3-point latching (57) and mortise lock (75). So single doors, pairs, and glass or full-height doors all get the same look, the same trim, and the same touch, with one set of parts to stock. Finishes carry across too, twelve of them including 626 satin chrome and 630 satin stainless.
19) What is a simpler wide stile rim exit device than the Von Duprin XP98/XP99 for a non-fire interior opening?
The XP98-F/XP99-F-4 carries its patented two-piece smart latch bolt and fire rating for attack-resistant fire openings. On an interior opening with no fire rating and no attack concern, several Grade 1 wide stile push pad rim devices cover the job: the Corbin Russwin ED5200 36 inch for 1-3/4 inch doors, the TownSteel ED1100 36 inch heavy duty Grade 1, and the DORMA 8300 Series wide stile panic rim device. For a 48 inch crossbar layout, the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 wide stile crossbar rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors.
20) I need a wide stile fire-rated rim device with request-to-exit and electric latch retraction built in. What compares to the Von Duprin XP98/XP99?
The Sargent 12-8810-LTRIM is a fire-rated Grade 1 wide stile rim exit device supplied with RX and motorized electric latch retraction. The Von Duprin XP98-F/XP99-F-4 reaches the same territory through options rather than a fixed build: RX request to exit, LX-LC latch bolt monitor, EL electric latch retraction and QEL quiet electric latch retraction are all orderable on the device. Note the Sargent 12-8810-LTRIM is catalogued in dummy function, so the trim on it does not retract the latch mechanically.
21) The XP98/XP99 is a rim device. What should I use if the opening needs vertical rod hardware instead?
A rim device latches into a strike on the frame or mullion, so a pair of doors with no mullion needs vertical rod hardware. The Hager 4501 Series 36 inch is a Grade 1 concealed vertical rod exit device with a wide stile pushpad, and the Hager 4601 Series 36 inch is the Grade 1 narrow stile concealed vertical rod equivalent. Within Von Duprin's own 98/99 family the device type can instead be ordered as surface vertical rod (27), concealed vertical rod (47 and 48), concealed vertical cable (49), or three-point latching (57).
22) For a school or hospital corridor that takes constant abuse, what compares to the Von Duprin XP98/XP99 on durability?
The Detex 10 Advantex Series 36 inch is a Grade 1 wide stile rim exit device rated extra heavy duty, and the Detex 40 Advantex Series is the extra heavy duty Grade 1 narrow stile version. Both are catalogued without a fire rating, so on a fire-rated corridor opening the Von Duprin XP98-F/XP99-F-4 stays in play: it is Grade 1, fire rated, and uses the patented two-piece latch bolt that changes shape under external force to hold contact with a distorted frame.
23) My doors are 2-1/4 inch thick. Which rim exit device covers that thickness?
The Von Duprin XP98-F/XP99-F-4 device is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors, though its included fasteners cover wood or metal doors 1-3/4 inch and 2-1/4 inch thick. For a device whose published thickness range itself runs to 2-1/4 inch, the DORMA 9300 Series 48 inch wide stile exit-only device covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch and is Grade 1 heavy duty, and the Adams Rite 8800 Series 30 inch narrow stile covers the same 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch range at Grade 1. Neither is fire rated, so confirm the opening's rating before selecting.
24) I want a crossbar rim device on a 48 inch door rather than a push pad. What are the options?
The Von Duprin XP98-F/XP99-F-4 is a push pad style device. For crossbar styling at the same 48 inch width, the CRL Jackson 1095 Series 48 inch crossbar rim panic device is a wide stile exit-only device, and the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 wide stile crossbar rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors. Neither carries a fire rating, so they suit non-rated openings.
