Door Width For Concealed Vertical Rods

When browsing our selection of concealed vertical rod exit devices, you will find that many of the device product pages allow you to choose a door width. You will want to know the width of the doors you are working on in order to determine which styles of concealed vertical rods will fit your door.

The Jackson 2085 Panic Device is a product that was designed to fit only one door width. This concealed vertical rod panic device was constructed to fit 36 inch doors. Even so, it is one popular item because it is highly rated and Grade 1 ANSI Certified. The device is made up of aluminum, stainless steel and hardened steel parts.

On the other hand, with the Jackson 1285 Panic Device you can choose from a few different door widths. The door widths for this concealed vertical rod exit device include a 30 to 36 inch version or a 37 to 48 inch version. This device was constructed of extruded aluminum and comes in dark brown or aluminum colors. You can also choose the hand options that your door requires, left hand reverse or right hand reverse.

Heavy-Duty Concealed Vertical Rod Panic Devices

The Von Duprin 5547 Concealed Vertical Rod Exit Device is a very heavy-duty crossbar panic product. It dates back to the 1970’s and has remained in production ever since. This device can be used on either wood or metal doors.

The Dor-O-Matic 1690 and the Dor-O-Matic EL1690 Panic Device (electrified version) are both meant for buildings that have high traffic volumes on a daily basis. The cover plates and end caps are made of cast metal to withstand damage from high usage. These concealed vertical rod panic devices will be shipped with strikes and screws. You will need to have a power supply for the electrified version.

Replacement Concealed Vertical Rod Exit Devices

You will also want to remember that some concealed vertical rod exit devices should only be used to replace already existing hardware. The Dor-O-Matic EL2390 Exit Device should be used specifically to replace older devices of the same model that are currently installed and falling apart. These currently installed devices may simply be worn out due to overuse throughout the years.
