Introduction:
The KC9116/KC9116-2 and KC9326/KC9326-2 are designed to replace existing
exterior trim for Von Duprin old style concealed vertical rod exit devices. The trim
will retract the latch(es) when an access code or iButton is entered and the lever is
depressed or the turnpiece is turned. Mechanical key override is standard. When a
‘toggle’ code or iButton is entered the lever or turnpiece will be continuously
engaged allowing latched passage mode until a ‘toggle’ code or iButton is entered
again to relock the trim.
The KC9116/KC9116-2 (trim w/lever) and the KC9326/KC9326-2 (trim w/
turnpiece) are both
compatible with Von Duprin (old style) 3347/3547 concealed vertical rod exit
devices.

Door Prepar ation
Door Conditions:
Installation may require the use of a cover plate (a) to cover the holes left in the
door. If the KC9326/KC9326-2 (trim w/turnpiece) is used and the existing pull (b)
must be removed, Ives offers a compatible pull.

Refer to existing Von Duprin prep. Use template or dimen-
sions below to remove required material from the outside of
the door. Do not remove material from the exit device side.

5) Verify Placement of Dead Latch:
Due to the d
i
ameter o
f
the key cyl
i
nder,
i
t
i
s necessary
to have dead latch (a) placed out of the way when
installing the key cylinder. Therefore...
• Using your finger or a pair of needle-nose
pliers, push dead latch towards the top end
of trim as indicated by arrow in photo.
NOTE: As indicated by arrow in photo, you’ll notice
that when you push the dead latch forward, it will
swing a little bit in a counterclockwise direction.
a
T
o
i
nsure that dead latch
i
s placed
f
ar enough out
o
f the way to allow key cylinder to be threaded in
p
roperly:
• Insert a finger into key cylinder hole and
hold dead latch firmly in place.
• Carefully turn the trim over while keep-
ing the dead latch in position.
Two holes on dead latch (a) should be showing
within the two holes (b) in baseplate.

IMPORTANT: A .050” cylinder washer must be used IN ALL CASES,
regardless of the key cylinder length.
• If you are installing a cylinder that is longer than 1-1/8”, you
must also install a blocking ring (see Table 1: Blocking
Rings, on page 8).
A simple formula for determining blocking ring thickness is:
Blocking ring thickness = length of cylinder minus 1-1/8”
• If not already done, install cam onto cylinder. Cam must be clo-
ver leaf design (see Table 2: Recommended Cams, on page 8).
• Tilt top of trim down at a sharp angle.
• Screw in key cylinder until it stops. Use mechanical key as a han-
dle for turning if necessary.

IMPORTANT: At this time, outer end of set screw should
be a little bit below the surface of the baseplate, as shown in
photo A. If you have turned in set screw as far as it will go
and it is protruding beyond the surface of baseplate, as
shown in photo B, the most probable cause is that dead
latch was not positioned properly (seePosition the Dead
Latch’s Set Screw Hole: on page 10).
If you have turned the set screw in as far as it will go and it is
p
rotruding from the surface of the baseplate, do the following:
• Turn set screw back out so that about 1/4” is pro-
truding from surface of baseplate.
• Reposition critical edge on dead latch according to
the instructions on page 10).
• Turn set screw in until it just hits the stop.
IMPORTANT: Do not overtighten set screw because the
baseplate may start to bow outward resulting in a gap
between trim and door when trim is mounted.
