Von Duprin XP98/XP99-3 Wide Stile Rim Exit Device - 3-Foot, Grade 1 with Patented Smart Latch

Von Duprin XP98/XP99-3 Wide Stile Rim Exit Device - 3-Foot, Grade 1 with Patented Smart Latch

Institutional-Grade Security with Patented Smart Latch Technology for Single and Double Doors

The Von Duprin XP98/XP99-3 is a wide stile, heavy-duty rim exit device engineered for single and double doors requiring increased security in demanding institutional environments. Featuring Von Duprin's patented 2-piece “smart” latch bolt design, this 3-foot (36") device changes shape under external force to resist attack while maintaining a secure opening. The patented latch bolt provides greater, longer-lasting latch bolt-to-strike contact that resists the twisting motion of a weakened frame. Certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3 2014 Grade 1 and UL listed for panic exit hardware, this device is built for schools, hospitals, and government buildings where dependable performance is essential. Door thickness compatibility is 1-3/4", with fasteners included for wood or metal doors 1-3/4" and 2-1/4" thick.
