Product Description
RXQEL98L-NL-17-F 4 US28 RHR Von Duprin 98 Series Night Latch Fire Rated Rim Exit Device in Anodized Aluminum
The RXQEL98L-NL-17-F 4 US28 RHR is a Von Duprin 98 Series rim exit device with L-17 Lever trim in Anodized Aluminum (US28/628), sized for 4' doors. Night Latch — outside lever locks and unlocks by key, inside always free for egress. Ships less cylinder — order a mortise cylinder separately to match your existing keyway.
Request to Exit + QEL — Combines Request to Exit monitoring with Quiet Electric Latch Retraction for full access control integration. 24VDC.
Fire Rated — UL listed for use on fire-rated openings. Mechanical dogging is deleted per UL code on fire-rated models. Field-reversible handing.
Pro-Tip from Our Locksmiths: Hex key dogging is standard on non-fire-rated 98 rim devices. That means you can hold the latch retracted during business hours so the door operates as a push/pull. Fire-rated models delete dogging per UL code — if the customer needs doors to stay open on a fire-rated opening, budget for mag holders tied to the fire alarm.
