The XP98K-F-US28-3 is a Von Duprin XP98 Series Extra Protection rim exit device with Knob trim in Aluminum, sized for 3 Foot doors. Knob Trim — Night Latch function. Outside knob locked/unlocked by key, always free from inside. Ships less cylinder — order a mortise cylinder separately to match your existing keyway.
ANSI/BHMA A156.3 Grade 1 certified. UL listed for up to 3-hour fire-rated door assemblies. Hex key dogging standard. Field reversible handing. The XP (Extra Protection) model features a reinforced shield over the mechanism case — designed for high-abuse environments where standard exit devices take damage.
Pro-Tip from Our Locksmiths: Knob trim on the XP98 is common in retrofit applications where the building already has knob-style hardware throughout and they want the exit devices to match. The XP reinforced case is a smart upgrade if the old standard 98 has taken damage over the years. Fire-rated XP98 devices get UL listed for up to 3-hour fire doors. The fire-rated version uses a top latch with fire bolt that auto-latches on closing — make sure the door and frame are also fire-rated to maintain the assembly's listing.
