Resuming on 301-4, Wayne Madsen (85) could only add five to his overnight score, but Matt Critchley's 64 from 85 balls helped Derbyshire to 427 all out.
Hardus Viljoen took two wickets in three balls as Durham slipped to 51-2.
But an unbeaten stand of 64 from Graham Clark and Cameron Steel steadied the innings before bad light ended play.
