Detex 100156-104 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the Detex 100156-104 screw used for?
It's the OEM screw for the top latch assembly on Detex exit devices. Thread size is 8-32 with a 1/4 inch length, so it's a short machine screw meant to fasten the top latch components rather than mount the device to the door.
2) Can I substitute a hardware store 8-32 screw for the Detex 100156-104?
The thread is a standard 8-32 machine thread, but the 100156-104 is specified at 1/4 inch length for the Detex top latch. A longer screw can bottom out or interfere with latch travel, and a shorter one won't hold the thread engagement the assembly was built around. If you're rebuilding a device you want back to its original function, order the OEM part number.
3) Do I have to take the whole exit device off the door to replace this screw?
No. It's a single fastener in the top latch, so it can be swapped during routine maintenance or an emergency repair without pulling the full device off the door.
4) Is this screw the latch itself or just the fastener?
Just the fastener. The 100156-104 is a replacement screw only, not the top latch, latch housing, or any rod. If the latch body itself is worn or bent, you need the latch component, not this screw.
5) Is the 100156-104 screw suitable for high-traffic commercial openings?
Yes. Detex lists it as a commercial-grade part, intended for institutional and commercial door hardware rather than residential use. It's the kind of item MRO and facilities teams keep on the shelf for schools, hospitals, offices, warehouses, and government buildings where exit devices cycle constantly.
6) How do I order the Detex top latch screw and how many do I get?
It's ordered by the Detex part number 100156-104, which is the single configuration offered. Quantity is per screw, so if you're servicing several devices across a building, order one for each fastener you intend to replace and a spare or two for the truck.
