The Von Duprin 94 95 series exit device parts cover one of the most specialized exit hardware lines in commercial door hardware. The 94/95 INPACT series is a recessed push pad device built for high-traffic openings where a standard protruding push bar takes repeated impact from carts, gurneys, forklifts, and foot traffic. The recessed pad sits flush with the mechanism case, reducing the contact surface and protecting the internal components from damage that would fail a standard device quickly.

Quick Answer
- The Von Duprin 94 series has a smooth mechanism case; the 95 series has a grooved case. Internal components are mechanically identical and most parts interchange.
- The 94/95 INPACT series comes in four configurations: CVR panic (9447/9547), CVR fire-rated (9447/9547-F), mortise panic (9475/9575), and mortise fire-rated (9475/9575-F).
- The most commonly replaced components are the ratchet release kit, top and bottom latch kits, dogging assembly, and EL cable connector.
- Wood door installations require a separate mounting package (part 900856). All 30 OEM parts are stocked at SecurityParts.com.
What Is the Von Duprin 94/95 INPACT Series
The 94/95 INPACT series is Von Duprin's recessed push pad exit device, designed for applications where a protruding push pad is a maintenance and durability liability. Hospitals, schools, warehouses, and manufacturing facilities specify INPACT devices on corridor doors and service entrances where carts and equipment pass through repeatedly throughout the day.
The push pad sits recessed within the mechanism case rather than projecting outward. This protects the pad from direct impact and redirects force into the case structure rather than the push pad linkage. The result is a longer service life on high-abuse openings compared to a standard protruding push bar device.
The 94/95 is certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.3 Grade 1 and tested to one million operation cycles. It carries UL 305 panic hardware listing and UL 10C fire-exit hardware listing depending on configuration.
Where the 94/95 Is Specified
The 94/95 INPACT is most common on:
- Hospital corridor doors with gurney and cart traffic
- School gymnasium and cafeteria exits
- Warehouse and loading dock service doors
- Manufacturing facility egress doors
- Any opening where a protruding push bar has a history of impact damage
If you are servicing a device with a flush-mounted pad that does not protrude from the mechanism case, you are working with an INPACT device.
Von Duprin 94 vs 95 Series: The Key Difference
The only external difference between the 94 and 95 series is the mechanism case finish. The 94 series has a smooth case. The 95 series has a grooved case that provides a better grip surface in high-contact environments.
Internally, both are mechanically identical. The same latch kits, dogging assemblies, ratchet release components, and EL parts apply to both series. When ordering replacement parts, you do not need to specify 94 or 95 - the parts are the same.
When replacing outside trim, confirm whether smooth or grooved case trim is specified. For a full series comparison, see the Von Duprin exit device series comparison.
94/95 INPACT Device Configurations
The 94/95 series comes in four primary configurations. Each serves a different application and uses a different parts set for the latch assembly. Identifying the correct configuration is the first step before ordering any major replacement component.
9447/9547 Concealed Vertical Rod (CVR) Panic
The CVR configuration uses concealed vertical rods inside the door stile to drive latch bolts at the top and bottom of the door frame simultaneously. Both latches must release when the push pad is depressed. This configuration is used on double doors without a center mullion and on single doors where a rim device is not specified.
The CVR mechanism includes a top latch kit, a bottom latch kit, rods, and rod connecting hardware in addition to the push pad assembly. All are available as individual OEM parts.
9447/9547 CVR Fire-Rated (LBR/LBL)
The fire-rated CVR configuration adds an auxiliary fire latch to the bottom of the door. When the door closes during a fire event, this latch provides additional engagement with the floor strike to maintain the door's fire rating. The auxiliary fire latch components are separate from the standard bottom latch kit. The LBR designation indicates a bottom latch with right-hand application; LBL is left-hand.
Part 051860-32 is the auxiliary fire pin only kit for LBR/LBL configurations. If the fire latch is failing or the device is not meeting fire rating requirements during inspection, this component is the starting point. For fire door assembly requirements and UL listing requirements, see the commercial door fire rating guide.
9475/9575 Mortise Lock Device
Von Duprin 968939 Latchbolt Collar, specific to the 9475/9575 mortise configuration. OEM part available at SecurityParts.com.
The mortise configuration integrates the 94/95 INPACT push pad mechanism with a mortise lock chassis in the door edge. This provides the highest level of security and function range in the INPACT line. The mortise device uses a different latch assembly than the CVR configuration and includes a latchbolt collar (part 968939) that is specific to the mortise application.
9475/9575 Mortise Lock Fire-Rated
The fire-rated mortise configuration adds UL 10C fire-exit hardware compliance to the mortise device. Installation on a fire-rated opening requires the device to carry the fire-exit hardware label, which is separate from the panic hardware listing. Never substitute a panic-only device on a fire-rated opening.
Von Duprin 94/95 Series Exit Device Parts: What Each Component Does
Dogging Assembly (Dog Key, Dogging Clip, Spring)
The dogging assembly holds the latch retracted for free push-pull access on non-fire-rated openings, engaged with a 5/32-inch hex dog key.
- Part 090085 - Dog Key 5/32" Hex, Package of 10
- Part 090005 - Dog Key 5/32" Hex, Package of 2
Dog keys are the most frequently lost component on INPACT devices. When dogging fails to hold, inspect the dogging clip spring (part 971664) and dogging clip (part 971659) first. These components are specific to the INPACT mechanism.
Latch Kits: Top and Bottom
The CVR configuration requires both a top latch kit and a bottom latch kit. These are the latch assemblies that engage the door frame strikes at the top and bottom of the door. Each kit contains the latch bolt, latch collar, and related hardware for that position.
- Part 050492 - Top Latch Kit
- Part 050493 - Bottom Latch Kit
- Part 050128 - Top Latch Kit (alternate configuration)
- Part 050495 - Bottom Latch Kit (alternate configuration)
Confirm the correct latch kit variant from the model number on the device label. If the latch bolt is not engaging the strike consistently, inspect the latch collar and compression spring (part 090066) before replacing the full kit.
Ratchet Release Kit: What It Is and When It Fails
The ratchet release kit is unique to the INPACT series and the most commonly misdiagnosed component on a failing 94/95 device. The ratchet mechanism is what allows the recessed push pad to engage the latch retraction linkage without protruding. When the ratchet release fails, the push pad either does not retract the latch at all or requires excessive force to operate.
- Part 106222 - Ratchet Release Kit
- Part 090070 - Ratchet Release Screw Package of 2
- Part 090069 - Ratchet Lever Spring Package of 2
The ratchet lever spring (090069) is the highest-wear component in this assembly. On high-traffic openings, this spring fatigues before the rest of the mechanism and causes the pad to feel loose or fail to fully retract the latch. Replace the spring first before ordering the full ratchet release kit (106222), which is the complete assembly for a full rebuild.
EL Electric Latch Retraction Parts
The EL option adds electric latch retraction to the 94/95 INPACT device, enabling the door to be unlatched remotely via an access control signal. The EL components are serviceable independently of the mechanical push pad assembly.
Von Duprin 110388 EL 6' Cable Connector for the 94/95 INPACT series. Available at securityparts.com.
- Part 110388 - EL 6' Cable, Connector
- Part 050534 - EL Potted Circuit Breaker
- Part 050539 - EL Receptacle Connector
- Part 050047 - Non-EL Latch Retrofit Kit (converts EL device to non-EL)
- Part 050048 - Non-EL Latch Retrofit Kit (alternate configuration)
The EL cable connector (110388) is the first component to check when electric latch retraction stops responding. Connector failures are more common than circuit breaker failures. The circuit breaker (050534) requires replacement after any over-voltage event.
Rod and Linkage Components
The CVR configuration includes vertical rods that run inside the door stile from the mechanism to the top and bottom latch assemblies. The rod connecting screws secure the rod joints and are a common source of CVR failures when they loosen from repeated operation.
- Part 090071 - Rod Connecting Screw Package of 2
- Part 090072 - Rod Connecting Screw Package of 2 (alternate)
- Part 090107 - Control Link Pin Retaining Ring, Package of 10
- Part 051808 - Extension Rod Kit 10'
The extension rod kit (051808) is required on oversized doors where the standard rod length does not reach the full height of the door. Confirm the door height before ordering any rod components.
Mounting and Door Prep Parts
- Part 900856 - Wood Door Mounting Package
- Part 090063 - Latch Link Pin Retaining Ring, Package of 10
- Part 090064 - Latch Link Pin, Package of 10
- Part 090065 - Bolt Return Spring, Package of 10
- Part 109324 - Latch Mounting Bracket Kit
- Part 112868 - Latch Mounting Bracket Kit (alternate)
INPACT Door Preparation Requirements
The 94/95 INPACT series has specific door preparation requirements that differ from standard exit devices. Understanding these before ordering any retrofit parts prevents installation errors.
Hollow Metal Door Preparation
The INPACT device requires a factory-cut door preparation on hollow metal doors. Field-modifying a standard hollow metal door is not recommended and may void the fire rating. When replacing an existing INPACT device, the replacement installs directly into the existing preparation, provided you order the same configuration and model generation.
Wood Door Installation
Wood door installations require part 900856, the Wood Door Mounting Package. This package contains the additional hardware needed to secure the mechanism to a wood door substrate. Standard hollow metal mounting hardware is not sufficient for wood door applications.
How to Identify the Right 94/95 Part Before Ordering
The 94/95 INPACT series has model generations where part numbers differ between the 9447/9547 and 9475/9575 configurations. Follow this process before placing any order:
- Read the model number from the device label. The label is on the mechanism case. The model number tells you the configuration (CVR or mortise) and the generation.
- Identify the failing component by symptom. Pad not retracting = ratchet release or spring. Latch not engaging strike = latch kit or collar. EL not responding = cable connector first, then circuit breaker. Rod not driving the latch = rod connecting screw or mounting bracket.
- Confirm the part number on the series page. The 94/95 series parts catalog lists all 30 stocked OEM parts. If the catalog part number matches your service manual, you have the right part.
- Call 845-935-0301 for compatibility confirmation on older generations before ordering.
