Detex 4001CN-628-36 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Detex 4001CN be used on a pair of doors?
Yes, on a pair with a mullion. The Advantex 40 Series is made for narrow stile single doors and double doors used with a mullion. It is a rim device, so it latches into a strike at the frame or mullion, not at the head and threshold. On a pair with no mullion, a rim device will not work and you need vertical rod hardware instead, such as the Hager 4601 Series narrow stile concealed vertical rod device.
2) Do I need to specify handing when ordering the Detex Advantex 4001CN?
Yes. Handing is a required selection, right hand reverse or left hand reverse, which are the two hands used on outswinging exit doors. The device itself is non-handed and field sizeable, and outside trims can be changed without pulling the device off the door.
3) Is the Detex Advantex 40 Series available fire rated?
Yes. The 4001CN is ordered as non-rated, fire rated, hurricane rated, or hurricane and fire rated. Pick fire rated for an opening in a rated wall, and note that a fire rated exit device cannot have mechanical dogging, so specify less/no dogging or cylinder dogging accordingly on those openings.
4) What dogging choices do I get on the Detex 4001CN, and which should I pick?
Three: hex dogging, cylinder dogging, or less/no dogging. Hex key dogging is the low cost choice for a maintenance staff holding the latch retracted during business hours. Cylinder dogging lets you dog and undog with a keyed cylinder, which suits buildings where you do not want a hex wrench floating around. Less/no dogging is what you order for fire rated openings.
5) Can I get the Detex 40 Series with delayed egress or an alarm?
Yes. The electrified options are delayed egress, electric dogging, hardwired electric alarm, request to exit signal switch, or none. Delayed egress is what you use on a controlled exit that holds for the code-permitted delay before releasing. Electric dogging lets access control unlock and relock the device on a schedule instead of someone walking the building with a hex key. The RX switch just reports that the bar was pushed back to your panel.
6) Does the Detex 4001CN include outside trim or a lever?
No. The 4001CN is exit only with a cover plate, so there is no outside operating trim in the box. Anyone outside gets in by key at a separate cylinder or another opening. If you need a lever or pull that retracts the latch from outside, order a device configured to accept trim, like the Corbin Russwin ED4200 narrow stile rim device, which is listed as exit only, accepts trim.
7) I need a narrow stile rim exit device for a wood door - the Detex 4001CN will not work, what will?
The Detex Advantex 4001CN is not wood door compatible. Among narrow stile rim devices that are, the Adams Rite 8700 Series 30 inch is Grade 1, narrow stile, non fire rated and listed as wood door compatible, and the Adams Rite 3700 Series 30 inch is the fire rated Grade 1 narrow stile version, also wood door compatible. Both use Adams Rite starwheel interlocking rather than the Pullman latch arrangement of the Advantex.
8) What is the closest narrow stile Grade 1 rim exit device to the Detex Advantex 4001CN?
The Corbin Russwin ED4200 is the nearest straight equivalent: a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device in a 36 inch size for 1-3/4 inch doors, exit only and able to accept trim. The TownSteel ED8900 and ED3700 are also Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim devices at 36 inches, and the Falcon 19-R is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device, exit only, at 36 inches for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Detex 4001CN itself is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device in the Advantex 40 Series, offered in 36 inch and 48 inch sizes, and it is not for wood doors.
9) What are the alternatives to the Detex 4001CN for a fire rated opening?
The Detex Advantex 4001CN is offered in fire rated, hurricane rated, hurricane and fire rated, and non rated configurations. Other fire rated rim devices include the Dexter ED1000 Series fire rated Grade 1 rim device, the Adams Rite 3700 Series 30 inch Grade 1 narrow stile fire rated device, the Marks USA M9900F in 36 inch and 48 inch exit only, and the Orca OED85 Series 36 inch fire rated rim device. Note that fire rated exit devices are supplied without dogging.
10) Which devices look like substitutes for the Detex Advantex 4001CN but are not rim exit devices?
A few items sit next to rim devices in a search but solve a different problem. The Hager 4601 Series 36 inch is a Grade 1 narrow stile concealed vertical rod device, not a rim device, and needs a door prepped for rods rather than a rim strike. The Dormakaba QED200 narrow device ships with a 7 foot rod. The SDC MSB550 and PSB560 36 inch bars are switch and pressure sense bars for electromagnetic lock release rather than mechanical latching panic hardware. The Detex Advantex 4001CN is a rim exit device, exit only with a cover plate, that latches into a surface 99 or semi-mortise 98 strike.
11) What door widths does the Detex 40 Series rim device cover?
Two bar lengths, 36 inch and 48 inch. The 36 inch covers typical single door leaves and the 48 inch suits wider openings. The device is field sizeable, so the bar can be cut down to the leaf within its range.
12) Which strike do I order with the Detex Advantex 40 Series, 98 or 99?
The 99 is a surface strike, mounted on the face of the frame or mullion, and the 98 is a semi-mortise strike that lets the frame in for a flatter, cleaner install. Choose based on the frame you have: surface for retrofit onto existing frames where you do not want to cut, semi-mortise where the frame can be prepped.
13) Is the Detex 4001CN heavy duty enough for a high traffic entrance?
It is Grade 1 and tested past 1,000,000 cycles, which is twice the cycling required for Grade 1 UL testing. Exposed surfaces are finished over stainless steel with PVD coating, and the angled end cap pushes abuse away from the device. That is the spec you want on a school, hospital, or retail entry that gets used all day.
14) How does the Detex Advantex 40 Series compare to other narrow stile rim devices?
The Advantex 40 Series is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device with stainless and PVD finishing and over 1,000,000 test cycles, and it is ordered with dogging, strike, handing, rating, and electrified options all selectable. Comparable Grade 1 narrow stile rim devices include the Corbin Russwin ED4200 for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Falcon 19-R exit only at 36 inches, the TownSteel ED3700 and ED8900, and the Adams Rite 8800 Series, which covers 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch doors. If you want fire rating plus wood door capability, the Adams Rite 3700 Series is the one in that group that carries both.
15) I need an exit device for a coastal building that has to take wind load. Does Detex have one?
Yes. The Advantex 4001CN can be ordered hurricane rated, or hurricane and fire rated together where the opening is both in a rated wall and in a wind-borne debris zone. That combination is not something most rim devices in this class offer, so specify it at order time rather than trying to add it later.
16) Is there a lighter duty or Grade 2 alternative to the Detex Advantex 4001CN?
The Detex Advantex 4001CN is Grade 1 and described as super heavy duty. If a lower grade chassis suits the opening, the Cal-Royal 5000 is a 36 inch heavy duty rim device with a touch bar and a Grade 2 chassis, and the Cal-Royal 5500 is a 48 inch heavy duty rim device with a push bar, also Grade 2. Both are non fire rated and not for wood doors. The Design Hardware 2000R is a 33 inch standard duty wide stile rim device with hex key dogging.
17) I need outside trim or a nightlatch function - the Detex 4001CN is exit only, what else should I look at?
The Detex Advantex 4001CN is an exit only device with a cover plate on the outside, though its outside trims are designed to be changed in the field without removing the device from the door. If the opening needs key access from outside from the start, the Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device listed as exit only and accepts trim, and the Sargent 8504 is a Grade 1 narrow design rim device in nightlatch function.
18) What are the options if I need an electrified exit device instead of the mechanical Detex 4001CN?
The Detex Advantex 4001CN can be ordered with delayed egress, electric dogging, a hardwired electric alarm, or a request to exit signal switch, so an electrified version stays within the 40 Series. If a different platform is required, the SDC S6136 Spectra is a 36 inch electrified architectural rim device on a 4 inch wide stile for doors 1-3/4 to 2 inches, the Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar for 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Sargent 12-8810 is a fire rated Grade 1 wide stile rim device with RX and motorized electric latch retraction.
19) Which alternative to the Detex 4001CN offers hex key dogging?
The Detex Advantex 4001CN can be specified with hex dogging, cylinder dogging, or less dogging. Peers with dogging called out include the Stanley Security QED200 Series Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim device with hex-key dogging, and the Design Hardware 1000R 33 inch heavy duty rim device with hex key dogging. Keep in mind dogging is not used on fire rated openings.
20) What finishes does the Detex Advantex 4001CN come in?
Ten: 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. For matching an existing storefront run, 628 brushed aluminum and 630 brushed stainless are the usual aluminum entrance matches, and 695 pairs with dark bronze anodized framing.
21) Are door prep templates available for the Detex 40 Series, or do I template it by hand?
Detex supplies a patented mounting plate and strike locator that replaces paper templates, which is what keeps the strike lined up with the latch on a narrow stile leaf. Printed installation instructions and a parts list are both published for the Advantex 10/40 devices if you want to check the prep before the door goes in.
22) Is a crossbar rim device an alternative to the Detex 4001CN push bar style?
They are different user interfaces on the same rim latching concept. The Detex Advantex 4001CN is a narrow stile rim device with an angled end cap that deflects damage away from the device. Crossbar alternatives include the Corbin Russwin ED3200, a Grade 1 48 inch crossbar rim device for 1-3/4 inch wide stile doors, and the CRL Jackson 1095 Series 48 inch crossbar rim panic device for wide stile. CRL Jackson also offers a paddle version in the 1095P Series. All of these are wide stile, so they will not fit a narrow stile aluminum opening.
