Detex 3009DM-628-90-36 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Detex Advantex 3009DM available fire rated?
Both fire rated and non-rated builds of the 3009DM are offered, so specify which one you need at order time. The rated version is what you want on a labeled opening; the non-rated version is the one to pick if you also want dogging held down, since dogging is not permitted on fire doors.
2) Do I have to specify handing on the Detex 3009DM, or is it non-handed?
The device chassis is non-handed and field sizeable, but because this model carries a mortise lock with a keyed lever trim, you order it as either Right Hand Reverse or Left Hand Reverse. Exit doors swing out, so RHR and LHR are the two handings you will ever need here.
3) How does the key-controlled lever function on the 3009DM actually work day to day?
Turn the key from the outside and the lever is unlocked, so anyone can pull the door open by the lever. Pull the key out and the lever locks again. Inside, the push pad always retracts the latch for free egress. It suits a door you want unlocked during business hours and secured the moment staff leave, without touching the inside egress path.
4) Which strike do I order for the Detex 30 Series mortise device on a pair of doors?
For a pair, use one of the double door strikes: 92 short open back or 93 long open back, chosen by how much the inactive leaf edge needs cleared. On a single door in a frame, the 90 non-handed curved lip or the 91 ANSI flat lip is the pick, with 91 being the one that drops into an existing ANSI 4-7/8 inch frame prep.
5) Will the Detex 3009DM latch into my existing frame strike?
The 3009DM uses a 3/4 inch projection stainless steel latch bolt with anti-friction, deadlocking action. That 3/4 inch throw is standard mortise exit device geometry, so it will engage a properly located existing strike pocket, and the 91 ANSI flat lip option is there specifically for frames already prepped to the ANSI cutout. Detex also supplies a strike locator with the patented mounting plate system, so you can confirm alignment rather than trusting a paper template.
6) Is the Detex 3009DM a wide stile or narrow stile exit device?
Wide stile. That makes it right for hollow metal doors and wide stile aluminum, not for narrow stile storefront leaves. If your door is a narrow stile aluminum entrance, look at the Adams Rite 8400 Series narrow stile mortise device for aluminum doors or the Von Duprin 5575 narrow stile crossbar mortise device instead.
7) Which dogging option should I choose on the Detex Advantex 30 Series?
Three choices: hex dogging, cylinder dogging, or less dogging. Hex key dogging is the low-cost route where only maintenance staff hold down the pad. Cylinder dogging lets you dog with a keyed cylinder, which is what most schools and offices want so the same keyholder controls it. Order less dogging on fire rated openings, since mechanical dogging is not allowed on a labeled door. The device uses a 1/8 turn dogging action.
8) I need a mortise exit device for a narrow stile aluminum door - can I use the Detex 3009DM?
No. The Detex Advantex 3009DM is a wide stile device and will not fit a narrow stile aluminum door. For narrow stile openings, the Adams Rite 8400 Series is a Grade 1 narrow stile mortise exit device built for aluminum doors, the Von Duprin 5575-3ft is a Grade 1 narrow stile crossbar mortise lock exit device that is field reversible, and the Sargent 8304 is a narrow stile mortise exit device in night latch function. The 8400 and 5575 are both listed non-fire-rated.
9) I only need free egress with no outside lever - is there a simpler alternative to the Detex 3009DM?
Yes. The 3009DM carries the key unlocks lever, locked when key removed function, which means outside trim and a cylinder. If the opening needs egress only, the Falcon 25-M-EO is a Grade 1 exit-only wide stile mortise device in a 36 inch size for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the BEST Precision 2301 is an exit-only mortise device with heavy wrought construction. The Corbin Russwin ED5600AL is a Grade 1 3 hour fire rated wide stile mortise device that can be used exit only or with classroom or passage lever trim ordered separately.
10) What is the closest wide stile mortise exit device to the Detex 3009DM from another manufacturer?
The Detex Advantex 3009DM is a Grade 1 wide stile mortise lock exit device. The closest peers by that same description are the Von Duprin 9875-3FT, a 3 ft smooth case wide stile mortise exit device rated Grade 1 and non-handed for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Von Duprin 8875-3FT wide stile crossbar mortise exit device, also Grade 1 and non-handed at 36 inches. The Adams Rite 8300 Series is another Grade 1 wide stile mortise device. Where they differ is function: the 3009DM is built around key unlocks lever, locked when key removed, while the 9875 and 8875 are catalogued without that trim function and the 8875 uses a crossbar rather than a push pad.
11) I need a fire rated mortise exit device - does the Detex 3009DM cover that, or should I look elsewhere?
The Detex Advantex 3009DM is ordered in either a fire rated or non-rated configuration, so it can cover a fire door opening directly in the wide stile sizes offered at 36 and 48 inches. Fire rated peers include the Adams Rite 3300 Series, a Grade 1 wide stile mortise device for wood and hollow metal doors, and the Corbin Russwin ED5600AL, a Grade 1 3 hour fire rated wide stile mortise device. By contrast the Adams Rite 8300, Von Duprin 8875-3FT, 9875-3FT and 9475/9575 are listed non-fire-rated.
12) What electrified options can I get with the Detex 3009DM mortise exit device?
Four, plus a straight mechanical build. EA is a hardwired electric alarm on the device. EB is the same alarm running on battery, which saves pulling power to the door. EX is a request-to-exit signal switch for tying the door into an access control or alarm panel. EE is delayed egress for controlled exits where code permits it. Pick None if you only want the mechanical panic function.
13) Can I re-key the outside trim on the Detex 30 Series without pulling the device off the door?
Yes. Outside trims on the Advantex 30 Series can be changed or re-keyed with the device still mounted, which is the difference between a five minute service call and a full removal when a tenant turns over or a key goes missing.
14) What finishes does the Detex Advantex 30 Series mortise device come in to match my other openings?
Ten finishes: 605 polished brass, 606 brushed brass, 611 polished bronze, 612 brushed bronze, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 628 brushed aluminum, 629 polished stainless, 630 brushed stainless, 693 black painted and 695 dark bronze painted. Exposed surfaces are finished over stainless steel using a PVD process, so the plated finishes hold up better than lacquer in high-traffic entries. 630 and 628 are the usual matches for hollow metal and aluminum storefront.
15) Is the Detex 3009DM Grade 1, and is that enough for a school or hospital main exit?
Grade 1, the highest ANSI/BHMA durability tier for exit devices, and it is built as super heavy duty panic and fire exit hardware for high-use, high-abuse openings. That is the grade specified for commercial entries, education, healthcare and government facilities where cycle counts are high.
16) Why choose a mortise exit device like the Detex 30 Series over a rim or vertical rod device?
A mortise device puts the lock case inside the door edge, so the latch throws straight into the frame jamb with nothing exposed on the door face beyond the pad and trim. That is the cleaner look and the more vandal-resistant setup on a single door or the active leaf of a pair, and it is why keyed lever trim works so naturally with it. The tradeoff is prep: the door has to be mortised, which is why the 3009DM is hollow metal and aluminum only and not wood. If your pair of doors has no mullion and you need to latch top and bottom, a surface vertical rod device such as the Sargent 1256NB-8710G is the type to use instead.
17) What mortise exit device should I use instead of the Detex 3009DM for a night latch opening?
The 3009DM's function is key unlocks lever, locked when key removed. If the opening calls for a night latch instead, the Sargent 8904 is a Grade 1 wide stile mortise exit device in night latch function with 24VAC/DC operation, and the Sargent 8304 is the Grade 1 narrow stile mortise night latch. Both are night latch trim rather than lever trim, so the outside operation differs from the Detex.
18) Is the Sargent 810 an alternative to the Detex 3009DM?
No. The Sargent 810 is dummy pull exit device trim, not a working exit device - it has no latching function. The Detex Advantex 3009DM is a complete Grade 1 mortise lock exit device with a 3/4 inch projection stainless steel deadlocking latch bolt and key-controlled lever operation. A dummy pull is used on an inactive leaf to match appearance, not to replace a panic device.
19) For a high-abuse opening, how does the Detex 3009DM compare to the Von Duprin Impact series?
Both target abusive traffic. The Detex Advantex 3009DM is a Grade 1 wide stile mortise device with all exposed surfaces PVD finished over stainless steel and a patented mounting plate and strike locator system. The Von Duprin 9475/9575 Impact Series is a Grade 1 wide stile mortise lock exit device with a recessed push pad, listed non-fire-rated; the Detex is orderable fire rated or non-rated.
20) Can the Sargent 1256NB-8710G replace the Detex 3009DM?
No, they are different device types. The Sargent 1256NB-8710G is an 84 inch fire rated surface mount vertical rod exit device with electric latch retraction, Grade 1 and narrow stile, so it latches at the top and bottom of the door. The Detex Advantex 3009DM is a wide stile mortise lock exit device that latches into the frame at the lock stile. Door prep and strike location are not interchangeable between the two.
21) Are door prep templates available for the Detex Advantex 30 Series, or do I template it on site?
Detex publishes installation instructions, a 30 Series catalog and printable door prep templates, and the device ships with a patented mounting plate and strike locator that takes the place of a paper template for locating the strike. For a shop prepping hollow metal in batches, pull the templates before the doors are cut.
