Detex 40EU2W-628-36 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Detex Advantex 40 Series rim device work on a pair of doors?
Yes, on narrow stile single doors and on double doors used with a mullion. As a rim device it latches into a strike on the frame or mullion, so a pair without a mullion needs a vertical rod device instead, not this one.
2) Do I have to specify handing on the Detex 40EU2W?
Yes, handing is an order choice even though the device itself is described as non-handed and field sizeable. You pick Right Hand Reverse or Left Hand Reverse when ordering. Stand outside the opening: if the door swings toward you and the hinges are on the right, it is right hand reverse.
3) What does the electric lock/unlock function on the Detex Advantex 40 Series actually do?
Electric lock/unlock controls the outside trim remotely, so access control or a card reader can leave the door pulled open from the outside or keep it secured, while the push bar always allows free egress. Wiring runs to the device, so plan for a power transfer at the hinge or frame and confirm the supply voltage and current before install.
4) Can I get the Detex 40 Series exit device fire rated and hurricane rated?
Both, separately or together. The rating options are Fire Rated, Hurricane Rated, Hurricane and Fire Rated, or Non-Rated. Note that a fire rated device cannot be dogged down, so if you order fire rated, choose the less/no dogging option.
5) What dogging options are available on the Detex Advantex 40EU2W, and which should I pick?
Three: hex key dogging, cylinder dogging, or less/no dogging. Hex dogging is the standard maintenance-tool option for holding the bar depressed during business hours. Cylinder dogging keys it so only the keyholder can dog it, which is what most schools and offices want. Less/no dogging is the choice on fire rated openings. Electric dogging is also offered as an electrified option if you want to dog and undog the device on a schedule from the access control system.
6) We need a fire rated rim exit device for a narrow stile aluminum door. What are the options besides the Detex 40EU2W?
The Detex Advantex 40EU2W is offered in fire rated and hurricane and fire rated configurations in 36 and 48 inch sizes. If a mechanical fire rated device is preferred, the Adams Rite 3700 Series 30 inch is a Grade 1 fire rated narrow stile rim device. For non-narrow-stile fire rated openings, the Marks USA M9900F is offered in 36 and 48 inch exit only, the Dexter ED1000-R-F-EO is Grade 1 fire rated, and the Orca OED85 is a 36 inch fire rated rim device.
7) What is the closest Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device to the Detex 40EU2W if the opening does not need an electrified function?
For a purely mechanical narrow stile rim opening, the Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device in a 36 inch size, exit only and able to accept trim, for 1-3/4 inch doors. TownSteel also offers the ED3700 and ED8900, both Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim devices in 36 inch. The Detex Advantex 40EU2W differs in that its function is electric lock/unlock and it is offered with electrified options including delayed egress, electric dogging, hardwired electric alarm and a request to exit signal switch, so the mechanical-only devices are the simpler choice where no power is run to the door.
8) Which electrified rim exit devices are comparable to the Detex Advantex 40EU2W?
Among electrified rim exit hardware, the Dormakaba E2103 with 4908A trim is a 36 inch electrified rim device in an 08 classroom function, the SDC S6136 Spectra S6000 is a 36 inch electrified architectural rim exit device with a 4 inch wide stile for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar for 2-1/4 inch doors. The Detex 40EU2W is the narrow stile choice of the group, carrying a Grade 1 rating and electric lock/unlock function, with electrified options that include delayed egress, electric dogging, hardwired alarm and request to exit.
9) What is the difference between the Detex 40EU2W and an SDC pressure sense or switch bar like the PSB560 or MSB550?
The SDC MSB550 is a 36 inch mechanical switch bar with electromagnetic lock release and the SDC PSB560 SureExit is a 36 inch pressure sense bar with tri-failsafe technology; both are listed for narrow or wide stile doors and rely on a separate electromagnetic lock to secure the opening. The Detex Advantex 40EU2W is a Grade 1 rim exit device with its own stainless steel deadlocking Pullman-type latch bolt and a surface or semi-mortise strike, so it latches the door itself rather than releasing a mag lock.
10) Which strike do I order with the Detex 40 Series rim device, 99 surface or 98 semi-mortise?
The 99 surface strike 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 strike is let into the frame for a cleaner, flusher look and less projection into the opening. Match whichever your existing frame prep already supports.
11) What electrified add-ons can I order on the Detex Advantex 40 Series?
Beyond the electric lock/unlock function, you can specify delayed egress, electric dogging, a hardwired electric alarm, a request-to-exit signal switch, or none. Delayed egress is the one to watch: it is code restricted by occupancy type and needs fire alarm interface, so confirm your local authority allows it before you spec it.
12) Is the Detex Advantex 40 Series tough enough for a high traffic school or retail entrance?
It is a Grade 1 commercial device tested beyond 1,000,000 cycles, twice the cycling required for Grade 1 UL testing, with a stainless steel deadlocking Pullman latch bolt and an angled end cap that deflects cart and door impact away from the device. That is the reason it gets specified on abuse-prone entrances rather than a Grade 2 bar.
13) What are the alternatives to the Detex Advantex 40 Series for an electrified narrow stile aluminum door?
Within narrow stile rim devices we also carry the TownSteel ED3700 and ED8900, both Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim devices, the Corbin Russwin ED4200 Grade 1 narrow stile rim, and the Falcon 19-R exit only narrow stile. Those are mechanical exit-only bars though. If the driver is the electrified side, the SDC MSB550 mechanical switch bar and the SDC SureExit PSB560 pressure sense bar both suit narrow or wide stile and are built around electric lock release rather than a mechanical latch.
14) I have a wide stile hollow metal door. Is the Detex 40 Series the wrong device?
Yes, it is the wrong pick. The 40 Series is a narrow stile device and it is not rated for wood doors. For a wide stile opening, look at the Von Duprin 22 Series, the Corbin Russwin ED5200, the BEST Precision 2101, or the TownSteel ED9700, all wide stile rim devices.
15) Is a Von Duprin 22 a direct substitute for the Detex 40EU2W?
No. The Von Duprin 22-3FT is a Grade 1 wide stile pushpad rim device, 36 inch, non-handed, for 1-3/4 inch doors, and it is non-fire-rated. The Detex Advantex 40EU2W is a narrow stile device with an electric lock/unlock function and is offered in fire rated, hurricane rated, and hurricane and fire rated configurations. On an aluminum narrow stile opening or where the access control spec calls for remote lock/unlock, the 22 is not an equivalent.
16) Is the Stanley QED211 or Dormakaba QED200 an alternative to the Detex Advantex 40EU2W?
Both are close in class. The Stanley Security QED200 Series 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 exit device in a 36 inch size with a 7 ft rod. The Detex Advantex 40EU2W is also Grade 1 and offered with hex dogging, cylinder dogging, or less dogging, and adds the electric lock/unlock function, so the QED200 devices suit an opening where no electrified control is required.
17) If we only need a night latch or trim-accepting narrow stile device rather than the Detex 40EU2W electric function, what fits?
The Sargent 8504 is a Grade 1 narrow design rim exit device in a night latch function, and the Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device that accepts trim on 1-3/4 inch doors. Falcon offers the 19-R in a 36 inch Grade 1 narrow stile exit only configuration and the 1590EO and 1790EO in 42 inch narrow stile exit only. The Detex Advantex 40EU2W by contrast is an electric lock/unlock device for remote control of the opening.
18) Can a wide stile rim device such as the Corbin Russwin ED5200 or BEST 2101 replace the Detex 40EU2W?
Not on a narrow stile opening. The Corbin Russwin ED5200 is a Grade 1 36 inch wide stile rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors and the BEST Precision 2101 is a 36 inch wide stile rim device; both need the stile width a wide stile pushpad chassis requires. The Detex Advantex 40EU2W is built for narrow stile single and double doors with mullions and is non-handed and field sizeable, which is why it suits aluminum storefront where the wide stile devices do not.
19) Will the Detex 40 Series finish match the other hardware in my building?
Ten finishes are offered: 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. The plated finishes are applied over stainless steel using a PVD process, so they hold up better than lacquered brass on a high traffic entrance. 628 and 630 are the usual matches for aluminum storefront.
20) How hard is the Detex Advantex 40 Series to install on an existing storefront door?
Detex supplies a patented mounting plate and strike locator system in place of paper templates, which is what keeps the device and strike lined up on the first try. Door prep templates, installation instructions and a parts list are all published by Detex for the 40 Series. On the electrified versions, kill the power first, route wiring per the supplied diagrams, then test normal egress and the lock/unlock function together with the access control before you sign off.
21) Our spec allows Grade 2 hardware on a low-traffic exit. What is the step down from the Detex 40EU2W?
The Cal-Royal 5000 in 36 inch and the Cal-Royal 5500 in 48 inch are heavy duty rim exit devices with a Grade 2 chassis, non-fire-rated, and not wood door compatible. The Detex Advantex 40EU2W is Grade 1 certified and tested beyond 1,000,000 cycles, twice the cycling required for Grade 1 UL testing, which is the difference to weigh on a door that sees real traffic.
