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.

Professional Features & Benefits

  • Patented Smart Latch Technology: The patented 2-piece latch bolt design changes shape when subjected to external forces, enabling the exit door to withstand external attack and remain secure while providing greater, longer-lasting latch bolt-to-strike contact.
  • Wide Stile Heavy-Duty Push Pad: The 98/99 Series features wide stile heavy-duty push pads with a center case measuring 8" x 2-3/4" x 2-3/8" and a latch throw of 3/4", designed for high-use institutional applications.
  • Product Size & Projection: Sized for 36" doors with a product projection of 3-13/16", compatible with 1-3/4" door thickness for precise, reliable installation.

  • 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, providing versatile configuration without additional parts.
  • Hex Key Dogging Configuration: Standard hex key dogging allows convenient hold-open capability; the device is non-handed except when SD (special dogging) or -2 (Double Cylinder) options are used.
  • Broad Device Type & Trim Compatibility: 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 (75) configurations.

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

1) Do I have to order the Von Duprin XP98 or XP99 handed?
No handing to specify on the device itself. The XP98/XP99 rim device is non-handed as standard, and the field-selectable EO/DT/NL function means one device covers exit only, dummy trim, and night latch. Two exceptions make it handed: SD special center case dogging and the -2 double cylinder option. Trim is a different matter, the lever and night latch trims are called out left hand reverse or right hand reverse, so the trim selection is where the door swing gets pinned down.
2) Will the XP98/XP99 latch cover the 86 or 161 cutout already in my hollow metal door?
On a single door, yes. The 98/99 device covers stock hollow metal doors prepped with 86 or 161 cutouts, which is what makes it a straightforward swap onto an existing prepped leaf. On pairs it may cover the cutouts, but that one has to be checked against the template before you commit. The latch bolt throws 3/4 inch, and the two-piece patented latch is shaped to hold contact with the strike even when the frame has been worked on and racked.
3) Is a rim exit device the right choice, or do I need vertical rods for my opening?
A rim device like the XP98/XP99 latches into a surface strike on the frame, which is the simplest and most serviceable arrangement on a single door or on a pair with a center mullion. If you have a pair with no mullion, a rim device has nothing to latch into at the center, and you need a vertical rod version instead. The 98/99 platform covers that too: surface vertical rod (27), concealed vertical rod with 5/8 inch bottom bolt (47) or 1-1/2 inch bottom bolt (48), concealed vertical cable (49), 1-point concealed cable (52), 3-point latching (57), and mortise (75). Same series, same look, different latching.
4) What trim do I order with the Von Duprin XP98/XP99 for classroom or office use?
Trim is a separate selection and it is required. Exit only (EO) is no outside trim at all. For pull-only outside use there is 990DT dummy trim; for key-in-outside-access the 990NL night latch (specified LHR or RHR) or the NL-OP cylinder assembly with a 110MD/WD pull. For a latch you can operate from outside, 996K knob or 996L lever trim, each available plain, with blank escutcheon, as dummy, or with night latch. Lever style options are 06 (the default), 03, 07, 17, and Latitude. The device ships EO/DT/NL field selectable, and for TP, K, or L you pull the NL drive screw out of the device.
5) Is the Von Duprin XP98/XP99 ANSI Grade 1 and UL listed for panic hardware?
Certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3 2014 Grade 1 and UL listed for panic exit hardware under ANSI/UL 305. It also carries ANSI/UL 10C and CAN/ULC-S104 for fire-rated configurations, plus CAN/ULC-S132. That is the certification package a school, hospital, or government facility spec usually calls for on an egress door.
6) Can I hold the door unlatched during business hours with a Von Duprin 98/99?
Hex key dogging is standard, so you depress the pad and set it with an Allen wrench to keep the latch retracted for daytime traffic. If you would rather staff not carry a hex key, CD cylinder dogging swaps it for a keyed cylinder, and CDSI or HDSI add a security indicator that shows at a glance whether the device is dogged. LD is less dogging, which is what you order on a fire-rated opening where dogging is not permitted. SD is special center case dogging, and it makes the device handed.
7) Can the Von Duprin XP98/XP99 be tied into an access control system?
Yes, and the options are ordered with the device rather than added later. QEL is quiet electric latch retraction and EL is standard electric latch retraction, both for remote unlatching from a card reader or button. E gives you electric locking and unlocking of the outside trim, which leaves the latch mechanical. For monitoring, RX is request-to-exit, RX-2 doubles it, LX-LC is a low current latch bolt monitor, and WP-RX is a waterproof request-to-exit for exterior doors. ALK adds a local alarm exit kit. CX CHEXIT delayed egress gives the 15-second delay called for by NFPA and IBC.
8) What else could I buy instead of a Von Duprin XP98/XP99 for a 36 inch wide stile door?
Several Grade 1 wide stile rim devices cover the same 36 inch opening. The Corbin Russwin ED5200 is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors that accepts trim, and the ED2200 is the exit-only wide stile in the same size. BEST Precision 2101 and the TownSteel ED1100 are both 36 inch wide stile heavy duty Grade 1 rim devices. Detex 10 Advantex is the extra heavy duty wide stile option at 36 inches. Where the Von Duprin separates itself is the patented two-piece smart latch and the depth of the option list, dogging indicators, latch retraction, delayed egress.
9) The XP98/XP99-3 will not fit an aluminum storefront stile - what rim device should be used instead?
The XP98/XP99-3 is a wide stile device with a center case of 8 inches by 2-3/4 inches by 2-3/8 inches, which needs more stile face than a narrow aluminum storefront rail offers. For narrow stile openings, use the Adams Rite 8800 Series 30-inch narrow stile rim device, which covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness, the Adams Rite 8700 Series 30-inch narrow stile rim device, the Corbin Russwin ED4200 Grade 1 36-inch narrow stile rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors, or the Falcon 19-R Grade 1 36-inch narrow stile exit only device. All four are built for the narrow stile profile the XP98/XP99 is not.
10) Which rim exit device should go on a wood door if the XP98/XP99-3 cannot?
The XP98/XP99-3 is not wood door compatible. Adams Rite lists wood door compatibility on the 8700 Series 30-inch narrow stile rim device and on the fire-rated 3700 Series 30-inch narrow stile rim device, both Grade 1. Both are narrow stile rather than wide stile, so the push pad footprint on the door face differs from the XP98/XP99 wide stile case.
11) Which rim exit devices come as fire rated when the XP98/XP99-3 configuration is not?
The XP98/XP99-3 is UL listed for panic exit hardware and complies with ANSI/UL 10C and CAN/ULC-S104 for fire-rated configurations, which means the fire label depends on how the device is ordered and dogging is omitted. Peers carrying a fire rating as listed include the Dexter ED1000 Series Grade 1 fire rated rim device, the Marks USA M9900F in 36-inch and 48-inch exit only, the Orca Hardware OED85 36-inch fire rated rim device, the Arrow FS1250 32-inch fire rated rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Adams Rite 3700 Series 30-inch fire rated Grade 1 narrow stile device, and the Sargent 12-8810 fire rated wide stile rim device with RX and MELR.
12) How much does a Von Duprin 98/99 exit device stick out into the door opening?
Projection is 3-13/16 inches off the face of the door. That is the number to check against a hallway clear width, a door that swings against a wall, or a pair where two push pads face each other. The push pad case itself measures 8 x 2-3/4 x 2-3/8 inches.
13) Which Von Duprin option meets the 5 pound ADA operating force requirement?
The AX accessible device option. It is certified to the 5 lb. force ADA requirement under 2010 ADA Chapters 404.2.7 and 30934 and 2013 California Building Code Chapter 11B-309.4. Order it as a mechanical option on the XP98/XP99 if the opening is on an accessible route and the standard pad force will not pass inspection.
14) What is the difference between the Von Duprin 98 and the 99 on this device?
Cosmetics, not function. The 98 is the smooth case and the 99 is the grooved case, and both are offered across 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 devices down a corridor, match the case style as well as the finish, because a smooth pad next to a grooved pad reads as mismatched even in the same 630.
15) What makes the XP version of the Von Duprin 98/99 different from a standard 98/99?
The XP is the patented two-piece smart latch bolt. It changes shape under external force, so it keeps latch bolt to strike contact when someone is prying or when a frame has been twisted and weakened. Standard latch geometry loses that contact as the frame distorts. That is why the XP goes on the doors that get attacked, school and institutional exterior openings, rather than interior traffic doors.
16) Is there a cheaper wide stile panic device than the Von Duprin 98/99 for a low traffic door?
For a door that is not seeing institutional abuse, the Cal-Royal 5000 is a 36 inch wide rim device with a touch bar on a Grade 2 chassis, and the Cal-Royal 5500 is the 48 inch push bar version, both heavy duty. Design Hardware 2000R is a 33 inch standard duty rim device with hex key dogging. Those are a step down from the Grade 1 XP98/XP99 in certification, so if the spec on the drawing says Grade 1 or the door is a school exterior, stay with the Von Duprin or another Grade 1 device.
17) What is a simpler alternative to the XP98/XP99-3 for an opening that only needs push-to-exit?
The XP98/XP99-3 is field selectable across EO, DT and NL functions and accepts thumbpiece, knob and lever trim, so much of its configurability goes unused on a door that only needs to push open. Straight exit only rim devices include the Corbin Russwin ED2200 36-inch Grade 1 wide stile device, the Marks USA M9900 36-inch exit only device with panic protector end cap, the Orca Hardware OED55 36-inch exit only rim device, and the Imperial USA ED-501 Grade 1 36-inch wide stile rim panic device in exit only. The Cal-Royal 5000 36-inch wide rim device uses a touch bar with a Grade 2 chassis, a different duty rating from the XP98/XP99 Grade 1.
18) Which rim exit device is comparable to the XP98/XP99-3 for an electrified opening?
The XP98/XP99-3 accepts QEL quiet electric latch retraction, EL electric latch retraction, RX request to exit, LX-LC latch bolt monitoring, E electric trim and CX delayed egress as ordered options on the mechanical device. Peers that are electrified as built include the SDC S6136 Spectra S6000 Series 36-inch electrified architectural rim device with a 4-inch wide stile for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, the Dormakaba E2103 electrified 36-inch rim device with 4908A classroom-function trim, and the Sargent 12-8810 wide stile rim device supplied with RX and motorized electric latch retraction.
19) How does the XP98/XP99-3 compare to Grade 2 rim exit devices for a lower-traffic door?
The XP98/XP99-3 is ANSI/BHMA A156.3 2014 Grade 1 with a wide stile heavy-duty push pad. The Cal-Royal 5000 36-inch wide rim device with touch bar and the Cal-Royal 5500 48-inch wide rim device with push bar are both Grade 2 heavy duty, as are the Cal-Royal A9800 36-inch and A9820 48-inch exit only devices. Grade 2 devices are tested to a different cycle and force standard than the Grade 1 XP98/XP99, which is the distinction to check against a spec that calls out a grade.
20) What other rim exit devices offer hex key dogging like the XP98/XP99-3?
Hex key dogging is standard on the XP98/XP99-3, with CD cylinder dogging, CDSI, HDSI, SD, LD and dogging indicator available as ordered options. Among comparable devices, the Design Hardware 1000R 33-inch heavy duty rim device and the 2000R 33-inch standard duty wide stile rim device both come with hex key dogging, as does the Stanley Security QED200 Series Grade 1 heavy-duty narrow stile rim device. Dogging matters for holding a door in push-free operation during business hours, and it is the feature that gets omitted on fire-rated openings.
21) For standardizing exit hardware across a school or hospital, which devices match the XP98/XP99-3 duty level?
The XP98/XP99-3 is a commercial Grade 1 wide stile device with a heavy-duty push pad and a 3-13/16 inch projection off the door face. For a facility standard at the same duty level, the Detex Advantex 10 Series 36-inch wide stile device and the Detex 40 Advantex narrow stile device are both Grade 1 extra heavy duty, the Detex V4003A/03AN wide stile device is Grade 1 with night latch trim, the DORMA 8300 Series is a Grade 1 wide stile panic rim device, and the TownSteel ED1100 36-inch is Grade 1 heavy duty wide stile. Mixing narrow and wide stile across a facility changes the door face prep, so keeping to one stile type keeps the standard consistent.
22) The XP98/XP99-3 is non-handed - which comparable rim devices are also handing-free to stock?
The XP98/XP99-3 is non-handed except when SD special dogging or the -2 double cylinder option is specified. Among comparable devices, the BEST 2401 Series narrow stile rim device is exit only and non-handed, the BEST Precision 5101 Series is a non-handed universal design, the CRL Jackson 1295 Series push pad rim panic device is non-handed for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Sargent 2828 and 3828 are reversible. Non-handed devices reduce what has to be carried on the shelf for a mixed set of openings.
23) What is the difference between the XP98/XP99-3 and a crossbar rim panic device?
The XP98/XP99-3 uses a wide stile push pad with a center case measuring 8 inches by 2-3/4 inches by 2-3/8 inches. The CRL Jackson 1095 Series 48-inch device and the Corbin Russwin ED3200 Grade 1 48-inch device are crossbar rim panic devices in wide stile, and the CRL Jackson 1095P is the paddle version of the same series. A crossbar spans the door with an exposed bar rather than a full-width pad, which changes the look and the projection off the face, and both CRL Jackson devices are exit only where the XP98/XP99-3 accepts lever, knob, thumbpiece and night latch trim.
24) Which Falcon or Arrow rim exit device is the counterpart to the XP98/XP99-3?
The XP98/XP99-3 is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device for a 36-inch door, 1-3/4 inch thick. From Falcon, the Monarch 18 Series 36-inch rim device is Grade 1, while the 19-R and the 1590EO and 1790EO are narrow stile. From Arrow, the 3880 Series 30-inch Grade 1 wide stile pushpad exit bar and the ED910 36-inch rim device both fit 1-3/4 inch doors; the Arrow 4800 Series 36-inch device is narrow stile. Where a wide stile pushpad is what the opening was prepped for, the Arrow 3880 and Falcon 18 are the closer profile match.
25) For a night latch opening, is the XP98/XP99-3 the right choice or is there a dedicated device?
The XP98/XP99-3 handles night latch as a field-selectable NL function with 990NL-R/V trim, or 996L-NL and 996K-NL lever and knob night latch trim, on a non-handed Grade 1 wide stile chassis. The Sargent 8504 is a dedicated night latch function device in a narrow design, and the Detex V4003A/03AN is a Grade 1 wide stile device supplied with night latch trim. Where an opening also needs to switch to exit only or dummy later, the XP98/XP99 changes function in the field; the Sargent 8504 is built as night latch.
