Is the Von Duprin 1609 strike fire rated for pairs of doors?

Solution ID

61162

Resolution

The Von Duprin 1609 cannot be used on a pair of fire rated doors. We recommend using the Von Duprin fire rated mortise exit device in lieu of the rim device such as the Von Duprin 5575-F, 8875-F or 9975-F fire rated exit devices.

Notes

The 1609 is made of brass and would melt during the fire.
