Detex 4009DN-628-36 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Detex Advantex 4009DN work on an aluminum storefront door, and can I use it on a wood door?
Aluminum storefront is exactly what the 4009DN is built for. It's a narrow stile rim device, so it mounts on the slim vertical stile of a glass front or aluminum entrance. It is not wood door compatible, so don't spec it for a hollow-core or solid wood opening. If you need a narrow stile rim device that will go on wood, the Adams Rite 3700 and 8700 Series are listed as wood door compatible.
2) Can I use the Detex 4009DN on a pair of doors?
Yes, with a mullion. The Advantex 40 Series rim device is made for narrow stile single doors and for double doors used with a mullion. A rim device latches into a strike at the stile, so on a pair you need a removable or fixed mullion for the strike to land on. If you want to secure a pair with no mullion in the opening, a rim device is the wrong type and you want a vertical rod device instead, such as the Hager 4601 Series narrow stile concealed vertical rod.
3) What does the 4009DN function actually do when someone uses a key from outside?
Key unlocks the lever, and the device relocks when the key is pulled out. So the outside lever stays rigid until an authorized key turns it, then the lever retracts the latch. Take the key out and it locks again. Inside, the push bar always gives free egress. It's the function you want on an office or school entrance where staff need keyed access but you can't compromise panic egress.
4) Do I have to specify handing on the Detex Advantex 40 Series?
Handing is a required choice. You pick Right Hand Reverse or Left Hand Reverse when you order. The device chassis itself is non-handed and field sizeable, but the keyed lever trim side has to match your opening, so stand outside the door and note which side the hinges are on before ordering.
5) Which dogging option should I pick on the Detex 4009DN?
Three choices, and they are not interchangeable. Hex dogging holds the push bar down with an allen wrench so the door stays push/pull during business hours. Cylinder dogging does the same thing but takes a key, which is what most institutions want so a tenant can't dog it open with a hardware store hex key. Less/no dogging is the one you order for a fire rated opening, since dogging is not permitted on fire exit hardware. Match this to the Rating Option you select.
6) Can I get the Detex Advantex 4009DN with delayed egress or an alarm?
Yes. Electrified options are Delayed Egress, Electric Dogging, Hardwired Electric Alarm, Request To Exit (Signal) Switch, or None. Delayed egress is the one for loss-prevention and wander-management doors. Electric dogging lets access control unlock the push bar on a schedule instead of someone walking around with a wrench. Request to exit gives your access control panel a signal when the bar is pushed so the door doesn't report as forced.
7) What fire rated rim exit devices compare to the Detex Advantex 4009DN?
The Advantex 4009DN can be ordered fire rated, hurricane rated, or hurricane and fire rated, on a Grade 1 narrow stile chassis. Fire rated alternatives include the Adams Rite 3700 Series 30 inch, a Grade 1 fire rated narrow stile rim device that is also wood door compatible, the Dexter ED1000 Series Grade 1 fire rated rim device, the Arrow FS1250 32 inch fire rated rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Orca OED85 36 inch fire rated exit only device, and the Marks USA M9900F in 36 inch and 48 inch. Hurricane rating is specific to the Advantex build.
8) What is the closest narrow stile Grade 1 rim exit device to the Detex 4009DN if I need another brand?
The Detex Advantex 4009DN is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device. The closest cross-brand equivalents on the same three points are the Corbin Russwin ED4200, a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device, and the TownSteel ED8900 and ED3700, both Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim devices in 36 inch. The Falcon 19-R and Falcon 1590EO are also Grade 1 narrow stile rim devices. The difference to check before you swap: the 4009DN carries a key unlocks lever function that locks when the key is removed, while the Corbin ED4200 is exit only with provision to accept trim and the Falcon 19-R and 1590EO are exit only.
9) I only need exit-only panic hardware, no keyed lever - what should I use instead of the Detex 4009DN?
The 4009DN is built around key unlocks lever operation with the lever locking when the key is removed, so if the opening never needs keyed re-entry you are paying for a function you will not use. Exit-only narrow stile rim devices in the same class include the Corbin Russwin ED4200 (Grade 1, narrow stile, 1-3/4 inch door), the Falcon 19-R (Grade 1, narrow stile, 1-3/4 inch door), the Falcon 1790EO, and the BEST 2401, a non-handed narrow stile exit only rim device. The Marks USA M8800 is a 36 inch narrow stile exit only rim device as well.
10) My door is wood - can I substitute the Detex 4009DN?
No. The Detex Advantex 4009DN is not wood door compatible. For a wood door opening in narrow stile, the Adams Rite 8700 Series 30 inch and the Adams Rite 3700 Series 30 inch are both Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit devices listed as wood door compatible, with the 3700 being the fire-rated one of the pair. Most other narrow stile rim devices in this class, including the Corbin ED4200, Falcon 19-R and TownSteel ED8900, are likewise not wood door compatible.
11) Can I use a Cal-Royal 5000 or 5500 in place of the Detex 4009DN?
Only if the spec does not call for Grade 1. The Detex Advantex 4009DN is a Grade 1 commercial device tested beyond 1,000,000 cycles. The Cal-Royal 5000 36 inch touch bar and Cal-Royal 5500 48 inch push bar rim devices are heavy duty but carry a Grade 2 chassis rating, so they will not satisfy a drawing that specifies ANSI/BHMA Grade 1. If Grade 1 is required and budget drives the choice, look at the Hager 4701 Series 36 inch or the Dexter ED1000 3FT instead, both Grade 1 rim devices.
12) Would an SDC pressure sense bar or switch bar do the same job as the Detex 4009DN?
No, they solve a different problem. The SDC PSB560 and MSB550 in 36 inch are sensing and switching bars for narrow or wide stile doors that release an electromagnetic lock, and the Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar. None of them is a mechanical Grade 1 rim latch device. The Advantex 4009DN latches mechanically with a deadlocking Pullman-type latch bolt and keyed lever control, and it can be ordered with a request to exit signal switch, electric dogging, delayed egress, or a hardwired electric alarm if you need the electrical function without giving up the mechanical latch.
13) What size Detex 40 Series device do I need for my door width, and can it be cut down?
Two device lengths are offered, 36 inch and 48 inch. The device is field sizeable, so the 36 inch covers typical 3-0 openings and the 48 inch covers wider leaves. Pick the size that matches or exceeds your door width and trim it in the field rather than under-sizing it.
14) What is the difference between the 99 surface strike and the 98 semi-mortise strike on the Detex 40 Series?
The 99 surface strike screws onto the face of the frame or mullion, so it's the fast retrofit when you don't want to cut metal. The 98 semi-mortise strike sets into a prepped frame for a flatter, cleaner look and less projection into the opening. Choose based on what your frame or mullion is already prepped for; the strike is a required selection at order time.
15) Is the Detex Advantex 40 Series durable enough for a high-traffic entrance?
It's Grade 1 and tested beyond 1,000,000 cycles, which Detex states is twice the cycling required for Grade 1 UL testing. The latch is a stainless steel deadlocking Pullman type, and all exposed surfaces are finished over stainless steel using a PVD process. For a school vestibule, hospital entry, or a multi-tenant lobby that cycles all day, that's the spec you want.
16) My existing device is a wide stile push pad. Can I drop the Detex 4009DN in its place?
Not without checking the stile. The 4009DN is a narrow stile device, sized for the slim vertical rail on an aluminum or glass front door. A wide stile opening has room for a wider chassis, and swapping in a narrow device usually leaves old fastener holes exposed and a different strike location. If your door is genuinely wide stile, look at a wide stile rim device such as the Von Duprin 22, the Corbin Russwin ED5200, or the TownSteel ED9700, all Grade 1.
17) My opening has a wide stile door - is the Detex 4009DN still the right device?
The Advantex 4009DN is a narrow stile device, so on a wide stile aluminum or hollow metal door you are better served by a wide stile rim device. Grade 1 wide stile rim options include the Von Duprin 22 Series 36 inch non-handed device for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Corbin Russwin ED5200 36 inch, the Corbin Russwin ED2200 36 inch exit only, the DORMA 8300 Series, and the TownSteel ED9700 36 inch heavy duty. The Sargent 2828 and 3828 are Grade 1 reversible wide stile rim devices for 48 inch doors.
18) Is the Stanley QED211 or Dormakaba QED200 a substitute for the Detex 4009DN?
Both are close on class. The Stanley Security QED211 is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim exit device with hex-key dogging, and the Dormakaba QED200 is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile exit device, both in the QED200 Series and neither wood door compatible. The Detex Advantex 4009DN is also Grade 1 and narrow stile, and it can be ordered with hex dogging, cylinder dogging, or less dogging. Where they part company is function: the 4009DN is specified as key unlocks lever, locked when key removed, and offers fire rated, hurricane rated, and hurricane-and-fire rated builds.
19) What is the difference between the Detex 4009DN and a concealed vertical rod device like the Hager 4601?
They mount and latch differently. The Detex Advantex 4009DN is a rim device: the latch is a deadlocking Pullman-type bolt that catches a strike on the frame or mullion, ordered here with either a 99 surface strike or a 98 semi-mortise strike. The Hager 4601 Series 36 inch is a Grade 1 narrow stile concealed vertical rod device, latching top and bottom through rods concealed in the door, and the Hager 4501 is the wide stile pushpad version of that. Choose the rim device when the frame or mullion can take a strike, and the vertical rod device when it cannot.
20) Is the Sargent 8504 nightlatch a match for the Detex 4009DN function?
They are both Grade 1 narrow design rim exit devices, but the functions differ. The Sargent 8504 is a nightlatch function device, where key operation retracts the latch for entry. The Advantex 4009DN is specified as key unlocks lever, locked when key removed, so the key leaves the lever in an unlocked state for continued use until it is relocked. If your access sequence calls for momentary key entry rather than a lever left unlocked, the 8504 is the closer function.
21) We standardize on Adams Rite for aluminum storefront - how does the 8800 compare to the Detex 4009DN?
The Adams Rite 8800 Series 30 inch is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device with starwheel interlocking, rated for 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch doors and not wood door compatible. The Adams Rite EX88 is another Grade 1 narrow stile interlocking rim device in that family. The Detex Advantex 4009DN is also Grade 1 narrow stile and not wood door compatible, and it differs in what it brings to the order: 36 and 48 inch lengths, ten finishes from 605 polished brass through 695 dark bronze painted, and fire, hurricane, or hurricane-and-fire rated builds.
22) What finishes does the Detex 40 Series rim exit device come in to match my other storefront doors?
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. On aluminum storefront, 628 and 695 are the usual matches to clear and dark bronze anodized frames. The plated finishes go over stainless with a PVD process, which holds up better than lacquered brass on an exterior door.
23) How hard is the Detex Advantex 40 Series to install on an existing storefront door?
Detex ships a patented mounting plate and strike locator system in place of a paper template, which is what keeps the device and the strike in line on a narrow stile without repeated trial fits. Door prep is minimal and the device is field sizeable and non-handed, so one installer can set it without a shop. Detex publishes the installation instructions, parts list, and door prep templates, and ZenSupply hosts the instruction sheet and parts list PDFs on the product record.
