DORMA 9100 Concealed Vertical Rod Exit Device Installation Guide

Verify door width, handing, and product with carton label for
correct exit device and length.
Install the device and make preliminary adjustments before
hanging the door(s) in the frame.

For hand reversal of chassis assembly, refer to Step 3 in the
instruction sheet.
For hand reversal of trim assembly, refer to Step 4 in the
instruction sheet.

Tools Required:

Special tools needed for installation include:

12-24 Tap

10-32 Tap
Drill bits: 1/8, #25, #16, #21 & 3/8

Hole saws: 1, 1 1/4, & 2 1/8 diameter for trim (if
required)
Jig saw or router (may be required for thumbpiece trims)

Set of saw horses

Troubleshooting:

If hand reversal of chassis is required, follow the steps
provided in alphabetical sequence in the instruction manual.

FAQ:

Q: What should I do if the device is to be installed over glass
lite panels?

A: If the device is to be installed over glass lite panels, a
shim kit may be required. You can order the DORMA No. GK9000 for
this purpose.

Q: What is the standard door opening height for which the
device is shipped?

A: The device is shipped standard for a 7′ (2134 mm) high door
opening. For doors up to but not over 10′ (3048 mm), you can order
the ETR (Extended to rod) device.

Depress tripping lever allowing latch bolt to extend.

Bell crank should be all of the way down in slot as shown.

Push down on top latch bolt, bolt should not retract

or be able to be pushed in. Bolt should be dead-locked.

If latch bolt can be pushed in; additional adjustment will be

required.

Top Rod Adjusting Screw (slotted)

Connecting Link

Locking Screw

a. Loosen locking screw in top connecting link. #2 phillips head screwdriver required.

b. Rotate adjusting screw clockwise (right) to shorten the rod assembly. Medium flat blade screwdriver required.

Note: Check outside trim operation and make any required adjustments in same manner; use outside trim in lieu of touch bar assembly to retract latch bolts; ensure that both top and bottom bolts retract fully and clear strikes.

c. Re-check adjustment “after each half turn” of adjusting screw. Do this by attempting to push in on top latch as before then push in on tripping lever to ensure latch bolt is fully out; adjust until dead latch is achieved.
d. Once dead latch is achieved secure in place by tightening the locking screw in top of connecting link securely.
e. Retract latch bolts, tripping lever in top latch should hold latch bolts in fully retracted position. Ensure bottom bolt is protruding no more then 1/8″ to 1/4″ below door edge. Adjust it in same manner as with top latch.
Note: If resistance is met when making adjustment to rods ensure they are not to long or are in a bind inside of the door, or the connecting spring can be broken.

12 Prepare to install touch and rail on door.

NOTE: All dimensions are based on 5/8″ stop height; Verify strikes, stile width, any trim and stop height prior to making any cuts. If cutting is required follow instructions below.

Size A: Fits 48″ door opening without cutting. Can be cut to fit a 34″ minimum door opening. Size B: Fits 36″ door opening without cutting. Can be cut to fit a 28″ minimum door opening. Size C: Fits 36″ door opening with out cutting. Using a shorter touch pad then the standard “B” size allows it to be cut to 25″ door opening.

Note: Models with prefix options such as “ES”, “DE” etc. may not be cut down to minimums shown to left. Consult factory or catalog for details.

IMPORTANT
Use caution when cutting touchbar and rail to size on models with “ES”, “MS”, “LM” or “DWA” prefix options. These units contain internal wiring. For models with prefix options “BPA”, BPAR” or “DE” remove filler containing electronics before cutting.

Note: If door opening width is less then standard touch bar will have to be cut down. ie: door opening width 34″ subtract 2″ from rear of touch bar and rail, tape and cut to length as shown.

Note: If door opening width is less or stops are different, then standard touch bar will have to be cut down. ie: door opening width 34″ subtract 2″ from rear of rail, depress touch bar as shown, tape and cut to length as shown. Touch bar should be approximately 3/16″ longer then rail once it is released to upward position.

Remove two 8-32 screws from chassis, slide touch bar and rail assembly under rear of chassis. Note: If device has prefix “ES” ensure that pins in lever bolt align with slots in actuator located inside nose of touch bar. See instruction sheet IES-7 packed with device. Install (2) two 8-32 x 3/8″ P.H.P.M.S. to secure touchbar to chassis.

Hold rear mounting bracket tightly against door and rear of rail. Mark (2) two holes and drill per chart. Secure with proper fasteners.
