Von Duprin 22L Rim Exit Device with 230L Lever Trim

The Von Duprin 22L is a Grade 1 rim exit device paired with the 230L keyed lever trim, built for single and double doors that need reliable panic egress plus controlled outside access. As part of the Von Duprin 22 Series, this panic bar combines proven exit-device durability with a key-operated lever, so the door always allows free egress from the inside while the outside lever locks and unlocks by key. It is a practical, cost-effective choice for medium to low traffic openings in healthcare, multifamily, retail, and commercial buildings.

What the Von Duprin 22L with 230L Trim Does

The 22L is the lever-trim configuration of the Von Duprin 22 panic bar. Press the touchpad from inside and the door opens instantly for safe egress, which is the core life-safety function every exit device must provide. On the outside, the 230L lever trim controls entry: turn the key to lock or unlock the lever (ANSI Function 08, key locks and unlocks). That makes it a fit for classroom and entrance applications where staff need keyed control of a door that still has to dump occupants safely in an emergency.

The 22 Series is non-handed, which makes it more adaptable in the field, and it covers stock hollow metal doors with standard 161 cutouts, fitting door stiles as narrow as 3-13/16 inches.

Why Choose the 22 Series Panic Bar

The Von Duprin 22 Series earns its place as the value workhorse of the Von Duprin line. It delivers genuine Grade 1 panic performance at a price point suited to back-door employee entrances, parking-garage stairwells, and secondary exits where you need proven reliability without specifying the heavy-duty 98/99 Series. The non-handed design cuts down on stocking and field errors, and the wide range of electric and trim options means one platform covers many openings.

If your opening needs no outside trim at all, the Von Duprin 22EO (Exit Only) is the push-bar-only version, and the 22EO-3ft-28 references that exit-only device in a 3-foot length, aluminum finish. The 22L covered here is the opposite: it adds the keyed lever for controlled entry.
