Detex 2702C-693-36x84 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Detex 2702C exit device be used on a pair of doors with no mullion?
Yes. The Advantex 27 Series 2702C is a surface vertical rod device built for double doors without a mullion. It latches at the top with a stainless steel relatching top bolt and at the threshold with a hardened steel bottom drop bolt, so the leaf is secured top and bottom rather than into a center post. If you need a rim device instead, that configuration requires a mullion between the leaves.
2) Do I have to order the Detex 2702C handed, or can I flip it in the field?
You pick a hand when ordering, right hand reverse or left hand reverse, but the device is field reversible, so an installer can change it on site without sending it back. On an outswing pair the leaves take opposite hands, so order one of each if you are doing both leaves.
3) What does the C in Detex 2702C mean, and does it lock from the outside?
The 2702C carries dummy pull trim, which is a fixed pull with no cylinder and no outside latch retraction. Pull it and nothing releases; the door only opens from the push side by pressing the touchbar. Use it where the opening is exit only from the inside and outside entry is not wanted. If you need key entry from the outside, specify a device with keyed lever or keyed pull trim instead.
4) Will the Detex 2702C fit a narrow stile aluminum storefront door?
No. The 2702C is a wide stile device and needs the stile width of a hollow metal, wood, or wide stile aluminum door. On a narrow stile glass storefront leaf you need a narrow stile exit device instead.
5) What door heights does the Detex 27 Series vertical rod device cover, and do I need special rods for a tall door?
Rod length is set by the door height you order: 84 inch, 96 inch, and 120 inch are the choices, so a tall opening is handled by selecting the 120 inch build rather than splicing rods. Device width comes in 36 inch and 48 inch to suit the door width.
6) Is there a fire rated version of the Detex Advantex 2702C?
Yes. The rating option is something you choose at order: fire rated, non-rated, or tornado rated. On a fire rated opening, order the fire rated build, and note that fire devices cannot be held dogged down, so hex or cylinder dogging belongs only on the non-rated version.
7) Can I get the Detex 27 Series with an alarm or request-to-exit signal?
Yes, the electrified option is selected with the device: EA hardwired electric alarm, EB electric alarm with battery, EX request to exit signal switch, or EE delayed egress. EX is the one to pick when you just need the access control panel to see a legitimate exit. EB suits an opening with no power run to the door. Delayed egress installs are governed by local code, so confirm EE is permitted for your occupancy.
8) What is the closest wide stile Grade 1 surface vertical rod alternative to the Detex 2702C Advantex?
The Von Duprin 8827-3FT is the closest match on core specification: it is a wide stile surface vertical rod exit device, Grade 1, from the 88 Series, and is listed for 1-3/4 inch doors in a 3 ft width. The Detex 2702C Advantex is likewise a Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod device, offered in 36 inch and 48 inch widths for 84, 96 and 120 inch door heights. The difference is trim and options: the 2702C carries dummy pull trim and is configurable for hex, cylinder or no dogging and for electrified options including delayed egress and request-to-exit, while the 8827-3FT is a single 3 ft non-fire-rated configuration.
9) I need a vertical rod device on a fire rated pair but do not need dummy pull trim. What else works?
For a fire rated opening where exit-only function is acceptable, the Marks USA M9900FVR is a fire rated vertical rod exit device for a 36 inch by 84 inch door, exit only and non-handed, and the Marks USA MARM9900F-VR covers the same function at 48 inch by 84 inch. The Delaney F9100 Series device is a Grade 1 fire rated heavy duty vertical rod type device for a 36 inch by 84 inch door in an aluminum finish. The Detex 2702C Advantex is also available in a fire rated configuration and adds dummy pull trim on the outside of the door, which the exit-only devices do not provide.
10) For a tall door over 84 inches, which surface vertical rod device should I be looking at?
The Detex 2702C Advantex is offered for 84 inch, 96 inch and 120 inch door heights, in 36 inch and 48 inch widths. The comparable Grade 1 vertical rod devices are catalogued at 84 inch door height: the Delaney 9100 Series stainless steel device and Delaney 8100 Series device at 36 inch by 84 inch, the Marks USA M9900VR at 36 inch by 84 inch and 48 inch by 84 inch, and the Von Duprin 8827-3FT at 3 ft. If the opening is taller than 84 inches, the 2702C is the device in this group sized for it.
11) What dogging choices are there on the Detex 2702C, and which should I pick for a school corridor?
Three choices: hex dogging, cylinder dogging, or less/no dogging. Hex uses an allen key and is the common pick where only maintenance staff hold the wrench. Cylinder dogging takes a keyed cylinder, which suits a school or facility that wants dogging controlled on the existing key system. Choose less/no dogging on a fire rated opening.
12) What finishes does the Detex Advantex 27 Series come in for matching existing hardware?
Nine: 605 polished brass, 606 brushed brass, 611 polished bronze, 612 brushed bronze, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 629 polished stainless, 630 brushed stainless, 693 black painted, and 695 dark bronze painted. Exposed surfaces are finished over stainless steel with a PVD process, so the plated finishes hold up better than lacquer on exterior openings. For a building already standardized on 630, that is the common commercial match.
13) Is the Detex 2702C tough enough for a high traffic school or hospital exit?
It is a Grade 1 commercial device in the super-heavy duty class, with a stainless steel relatching top bolt and hardened steel bottom drop bolt. That is the grade specified for schools, healthcare, government, and high traffic multi-tenant exits. An optional dust proof strike at the bottom keeps debris out of the floor strike, which matters on an exterior or garage-level opening.
14) Which vertical rod devices look like a substitute for the Detex 2702C but do not give you outside trim?
Several Grade 1 vertical rod devices match on rating and door size but are exit only, meaning there is no outside pull: the Imperial USA ED-VR531, a 36 inch wide stile Grade 1 surface vertical rod device, the Marks USA M9900VR at 36 inch by 84 inch and the M9900VR 48 inch by 84 inch version, and the Cal-Royal 9860. The Detex 2702C Advantex is specified with dummy pull trim, so if the opening requires a fixed exterior pull those devices will not finish the job without separate trim.
15) I need to match an existing finish across a building. How do the vertical rod options compare on finish choice?
The Detex 2702C Advantex is offered in nine finishes: 605 polished brass, 606 brushed brass, 611 polished bronze, 612 brushed bronze, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 629 polished stainless steel, 630 brushed stainless steel, 693 black painted and 695 dark bronze painted. Among the comparable devices, the Delaney 9100 Series vertical rod device is catalogued in a stainless steel finish and the Delaney F9100 Series fire rated device in an aluminum finish, each as a single finish per item. If you are standardizing a facility on a bronze or painted finish, the 2702C is the device in this group that carries that range.
16) Do I have to order handing on a vertical rod device, or are there non-handed options?
The Marks USA M9900VR and the fire rated M9900FVR are catalogued as non-handed vertical rod exit devices, so a single part covers either swing. The Detex 2702C Advantex is ordered as right hand reverse or left hand reverse but is described as handed and field reversible, so the device can be adapted on site. If your crew prefers to stock one part number for both leaves of a pair, the non-handed Marks USA devices remove the handing decision at the counter.
17) Is a paper template needed to lay out the Detex 27 Series on the door?
No. The Advantex 27 Series ships with a patented mounting plate and strike locator system that replaces the paper template, which is what keeps the top bolt and threshold strike in line on a vertical rod install. Detex also publishes door prep templates and installation instructions for the series if your shop preps doors in advance.
