Detex 4001DN-628-36 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Do I have to specify handing on the Detex Advantex 4001DN?
The device itself is non-handed and field sizeable, but the order does ask for a door handing selection, right hand reverse or left hand reverse. That is the standard pair of egress hands for an outswinging door. Stand outside the opening: if the door swings toward you and the hinges are on your right, it is right hand reverse.
2) What dogging options are there on the Detex Advantex 40 Series, and which should I pick?
Three: hex dogging, cylinder dogging, or less/no dogging. Hex key dogging is the common choice for an unrated door where staff hold the latch retracted during business hours. Cylinder dogging lets you dog and undog with a key instead of an allen wrench, which suits tenants and cleaners. Choose less/no dogging on any fire rated opening, since mechanical dogging is not permitted on a fire door. Electric dogging is also available as an electrified option if you want the latch retracted from an access control schedule.
3) Which strike do I order with the Detex Advantex 40 Series, 98 or 99?
Two strikes are offered: the 99 surface strike and the 98 semi-mortise strike. The 99 mounts on the face of the frame or mullion and is the simpler retrofit when you do not want to cut the frame. The 98 semi-mortise sits partly into the frame for a flatter, less exposed profile, which is usually what a new aluminum storefront frame gets. Match whichever your existing frame prep already accepts if you are replacing a device.
4) Can I get a Detex Advantex 40 Series with delayed egress or a request to exit switch?
Yes. Electrified options on the 4001DN are delayed egress, electric dogging, hardwired electric alarm, and request to exit signal switch, plus a plain non-electrified version. Delayed egress is the choice for loss prevention on a retail back door where the AHJ permits it, RX is what you want when the access control panel needs to know the bar was pushed, and the hardwired alarm is the local sounder version for an alarmed exit only door.
5) What does the blank escutcheon mean on the Detex 4001DN, is there an outside lever?
Blank escutcheon means the outside trim is a plate with no lever and no cylinder, so the door is exit only from the outside face. Use it where re-entry is not wanted. If you need a keyed or lever pull from outside, order a device configured for trim instead. Detex outside trims can be changed or re-keyed later without pulling the device off the door, so a blank escutcheon opening is not a dead end.
6) I need a narrow stile rim exit device for a wood door - will the Detex 4001DN work?
The Advantex 4001DN is not wood door compatible. For a wood door in a narrow stile application, the Adams Rite 8700 Series 30 inch narrow stile rim exit device is wood door compatible and Grade 1, and the Adams Rite 3700 Series 30 inch is the fire rated wood-door-compatible narrow stile equivalent. Both use Adams Rite starwheel interlocking rather than the Detex Pullman-type deadlocking latch bolt.
7) Which alternatives to the Detex Advantex 4001DN are fire rated?
The Advantex 4001DN can be ordered fire rated, hurricane rated, or hurricane and fire rated. Among other brands, the Dexter ED1000 Series fire rated rim device is Grade 1, the Adams Rite 3700 Series 30 inch is a fire rated Grade 1 narrow stile rim device, the Arrow FS1250 is a fire rated 32 inch rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors, and Marks USA M9900F comes in 36 and 48 inch fire rated exit only versions. Note that a fire rated opening will not accept mechanical dogging, so the less/no dogging configuration applies.
8) What is the closest Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device to the Detex Advantex 4001DN from another manufacturer?
The Corbin Russwin ED4200 is the nearest straight equivalent: a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device, exit only and able to accept trim, for 1-3/4 inch doors. The TownSteel ED3700 and ED8900 are also Grade 1 narrow stile rim devices in 36 inch lengths, and the Falcon 19-R is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device, exit only, for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Advantex 4001DN differs in the breadth it is ordered in - 36 and 48 inch lengths, fire rated, hurricane rated, or both, and electrified options including delayed egress, electric dogging, hardwired alarm, and request to exit.
9) My opening has a wide stile aluminum or hollow metal door - what should I order instead of the Advantex 4001DN?
The Advantex 4001DN is built for narrow stile doors. For a wide stile opening, the Von Duprin 22-3FT is a Grade 1 wide stile pushpad rim device, 36 inch and non-handed, for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Corbin Russwin ED5200 is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device in 36 inch, and the TownSteel ED9700 is a Grade 1 heavy duty wide stile rim device in 36 inch. The DORMA 9300 Series covers 48 inch wide stile and lists a 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range.
10) What looks like a substitute for the Advantex 4001DN with electrified options but actually is not the same device?
Watch the exit bars that are switch or sensing hardware rather than latching panic devices. The SDC MSB550 Series 36 inch is a mechanical switch bar that releases an electromagnetic lock, and the SDC SureExit PSB560 Series 36 inch is a pressure sense bar with tri-failsafe technology - both fit narrow or wide stile but rely on a separate lock to secure the door. The Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar for 2-1/4 inch doors. The Advantex 4001DN is a rim latching device with a stainless steel deadlocking Pullman-type latch bolt and adds electrification as an option, including delayed egress, electric dogging, hardwired electric alarm, or a request to exit switch.
11) I need a nightlatch function narrow stile rim device, not the blank escutcheon version of the Detex 4001DN.
The 4001DN carries a blank escutcheon, meaning no outside key or lever function through the trim. If the opening needs key retraction from outside, the Sargent 8504 is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device with nightlatch function. The Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device that accepts trim. On the Advantex, outside trims can be changed or re-keyed without removing the device from the door.
12) What lengths does the Detex Advantex 4001DN come in for a 36 inch door?
Two device sizes are offered, 36 inch and 48 inch, and the device is field sizeable, so a 36 inch unit can be trimmed down for narrower leaves. Pick the 36 inch for standard 3 foot openings and the 48 inch for wide single leaves.
13) Is the Detex 40 Series durable enough for a high traffic school or hospital exit?
It is built for exactly that. The Advantex 40 Series is Grade 1 and tested beyond 1,000,000 cycles, twice the cycling required for Grade 1 UL testing, with a stainless steel deadlocking Pullman latch bolt and a heavy duty angled end cap that takes cart and traffic impact away from the device body.
14) What are the finish choices on the Detex Advantex 40 Series if I need to match existing storefront hardware?
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. 628 is the usual match for clear anodized aluminum storefront and 695 for dark bronze storefront. Exposed surfaces are finished over stainless steel using a PVD process.
15) What is the difference between the Detex Advantex 40 Series and a narrow stile device like the Corbin Russwin ED4200 or TownSteel ED3700?
All three are Grade 1 narrow stile rim devices. The Corbin Russwin ED4200 and the TownSteel ED3700 are listed as non fire rated, so they suit an unrated storefront leaf. The Detex 40 Series is ordered with a rating option, including fire rated and hurricane rated builds, and it carries the patented mounting plate and strike locator system in place of paper templates plus an alarmed and delayed egress path. If the opening needs a fire label or hurricane compliance, the Detex is the one that covers it.
16) I need a narrow stile rim device with a keyed nightlatch outside instead of a blank plate. What else is there?
The Detex 4001DN is the blank escutcheon build, exit only from outside. For a keyed nightlatch on a narrow door, the Sargent 8504 is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device in nightlatch function. The Falcon 19-R exit only and the Falcon 1590EO are other Grade 1 narrow stile rim options we carry, both listed for 1-3/4 inch doors.
17) The Detex 4001DN is a rim device - what if my drawing calls for concealed vertical rod on a narrow stile door?
A rim device latches to a strike at the frame or mullion and will not satisfy a concealed vertical rod spec. For narrow stile CVR, the Hager 4601 Series 36 inch is a Grade 1 concealed vertical rod narrow stile exit device; the Hager 4501 Series 36 inch is the Grade 1 CVR device with a wide stile pushpad. The Advantex 4001DN is a rim device for narrow stile single doors and pairs with mullions on double doors, ordered with either a 99 surface strike or a 98 semi-mortise strike.
18) Is there a simpler or lower-grade rim exit device than the Detex Advantex 4001DN for a low-traffic door?
Yes. The Cal-Royal 5000 is a 36 inch rim exit device with a touch bar on a Grade 2 chassis, and the Cal-Royal 5500 is the 48 inch push bar version, also Grade 2. The Design Hardware 2000R is a 33 inch standard duty wide stile rim device with hex key dogging. The Advantex 4001DN is Grade 1 and tested beyond 1,000,000 cycles, twice the cycling required for Grade 1 UL testing, which is aimed at high-use, high-abuse openings rather than occasional-use doors.
19) I need a 48 inch rim exit device - what are my options besides the Detex 4001DN?
The Advantex 4001DN comes in 36 inch and 48 inch. Other 48 inch rim devices include the Corbin Russwin ED3200, a Grade 1 crossbar rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors; the CRL Jackson 1095 Series 48 inch crossbar rim panic device, wide stile and exit only; the Cal-Royal 5500 48 inch push bar device; the DORMA 9300 Series 48 inch Grade 1 wide stile; and the Marks USA M9900F 48 inch fire rated exit only device. Those are all wide stile or crossbar styles, where the Advantex is narrow stile.
20) Falcon 1590EO vs Detex Advantex 4001DN for a narrow stile aluminum storefront door?
Both are Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit devices. The Falcon 1590EO is exit only at 42 inches for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the related Falcon 1790EO is also a Grade 1 narrow stile exit only device at 42 inches. The Advantex 4001DN is ordered at 36 or 48 inches, is non-handed and field sizeable, and can be specified fire rated, hurricane rated, or both, with a choice of 99 surface or 98 semi-mortise strike.
21) Do I need the paper template to install a Detex Advantex 40 Series device?
No. The 40 Series ships with a patented mounting plate and strike locator system that takes the place of paper templates, which is what makes the door and frame prep line up first time. Detex also publishes installation instructions, a parts list, door prep templates and an installation video for the 40 Series if the crew wants the full prep dimensions before cutting.
