Detex 101899 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What exactly is the Detex 101899, and is it the exit device itself?
The 101899 is a plastic installation template, not hardware that stays on the door. It's the marking guide you use to lay out mounting holes and cutouts for a Detex V40 exit device on a 2 inch narrow stile door. You still need the V40 device itself and its trim; the template only gets the prep in the right place.
2) Will the Detex 101899 template work for a V40 on a wider stile aluminum door?
No. The 101899 is laid out for a 2 inch narrow stile, so the hole pattern it marks is specific to that stile width. On a wider stile door the prep dimensions differ and this template will put your marks in the wrong place. Use the template matched to the stile width you're actually cutting.
3) Can I use this template for other Detex exit device series besides the V40?
It's built specifically for the Detex V40 exit device series. Other Detex series have their own chassis footprints and mounting patterns, so the 101899 should be treated as V40-only.
4) Why would a locksmith or maintenance tech buy an installation template instead of just measuring?
Because narrow stile prep leaves almost no margin for error. On a 2 inch stile the mounting holes and cutouts sit close to the glass pocket and the edge of the stile, and a hole a fraction off means an out of position chassis or a ruined door. The 101899 transfers the V40 pattern directly onto the stile, so field marking is repeatable across a run of doors.
5) Does the Detex 101899 come with mounting screws or the strike for the V40?
No. The 101899 is the plastic template alone, a single part number with no options or sizes to choose. Fasteners, strikes, rods, and trim come with or are ordered alongside the V40 device.
6) Is the Detex 101899 a genuine Detex part, and is it meant for commercial work?
Yes on both counts. It's carried as a genuine Detex replacement part and is classified for commercial applications, which is where V40 narrow stile devices normally live: storefront and aluminum entry doors in offices, schools, healthcare, retail and government buildings.
7) I'm standardizing several storefront doors on Detex V40 devices. Is one 101899 template enough for the whole job?
One template can be reused door to door as long as every opening is the same 2 inch narrow stile and the same V40 device. It's plastic, so it's light and easy to hold against a stile, but it's also a consumable in rough field use. Crews running multiple doors or multiple trucks usually keep a spare on hand.
