Can the 25-V be ordered via engineering specials to be cut down to 28"?

Engineering specials will not process an order for a shorter device.  Technical support has guidance on how to cut the device down,  including cutting off or into the dogging mechanism, rendering dogging useless, if need be. 

Otherwise, go with a Von Duprin 9927, which can be cut down or ordered at a smaller size from the factory.
