Detex 104796-1 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What exactly is the Detex 104796-1 part?
It's a genuine Detex OEM motor/gearbox assembly for Detex Automatic Door Operator systems, model 104796-1, built for the left hand push configuration and finished in clear aluminum. It is the drive unit that swings the door, not a closer body and not a control board.
2) My Detex operator is right hand push. Can I still use the 104796-1 motor/gearbox?
No. The 104796-1 is factory designated for left hand push applications, so the handing has to match the opening. On a right hand push operator you need the corresponding right hand push motor/gearbox instead, or you will have the drive working against the door swing.
3) How do I confirm my door is left hand push before ordering a Detex operator motor/gearbox?
Stand on the side of the door where the operator pushes the door away from you. If the hinges are on your left from that side, it's left hand push, and the 104796-1 is the matching motor/gearbox. If the hinges are on your right, or the door pulls toward you from the operator side, this is the wrong part.
4) Will an aftermarket motor/gearbox work in a Detex automatic door operator instead of the 104796-1?
The 104796-1 is built to Detex factory specification as a direct replacement in compatible Detex Automatic Door Operator assemblies, so mounting points, drive coupling and handing all line up without modification. Aftermarket drives are not covered by that fitment, which is where compatibility problems and short service life usually come from.
5) Is this Detex motor/gearbox rated for high traffic commercial entrances?
Yes, it's a commercial-grade component. Detex lists it for commercial use, and the typical applications are exactly that: office building entries, healthcare facility doors, school entrances, retail and municipal buildings, warehouse access points, and common areas in multi-tenant residential.
6) I manage several buildings with Detex automatic door operators. Can I stock one motor/gearbox for all of them?
Not with a single part number. The 104796-1 covers left hand push openings only, so a mixed-handing fleet needs both handings on the shelf. Walk your openings, record the handing at each operator, and stock to that count rather than assuming one drive fits every door.
7) Does the clear aluminum finish on the 104796-1 matter if the part is hidden inside the operator housing?
Functionally, no. Clear aluminum is the factory finish on this motor/gearbox and it matches standard commercial door hardware appearance, but the unit lives inside the operator, so finish is not a selection criterion here. Handing is what you need to get right.
