Von Duprin XP98/XP99-4 48" Wide Stile Rim Exit Device with Patented Smart Latch
Heavy-Duty Institutional Rim Exit Device with Patented 2-Piece Latchbolt Security
The Von Duprin XP98/XP99-4 is a 48" wide stile rim exit device engineered for single and double doors requiring increased security in high-demand institutional environments. Featuring Von Duprin's patented XP 2-piece latchbolt design, the “smart” latch changes shape when subjected to external forces, enabling the exit door to withstand external attack and remain secure. The patented latch bolt design provides greater, longer-lasting latch bolt to strike contact that is not easily affected by 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. The device accommodates door thickness of 1-3/4" and features a 3/4" latch throw, with a center case measuring 8" x 2-3/4" x 2-3/8" and a product projection of 3-13/16".
