Detex 5002CN-628-36x84 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I use the Detex Advantex 5002CN/5102CN on a pair of aluminum doors without a mullion?
That is exactly what the Advantex 50/51 Series surface vertical rod device is built for. It latches at the head and at the threshold rather than into a center post, so a pair of narrow stile doors can be secured with no mullion between them. It is a narrow stile device, so it suits aluminum storefront and similar narrow rails. If your opening has a wide stile door, a wide stile device such as the Von Duprin 8827-3FT or the Imperial USA ED-VR531 is the right family instead.
2) Do I have to specify handing when ordering the Detex 5002CN/5102CN exit device?
You pick a hand on the order, right hand reverse or left hand reverse, but the device itself is field reversible, so a unit already on the shelf can be switched in the field if the opening turns out opposite to what was measured. It is also field sizeable, which helps when the door width is between the listed sizes.
3) What door sizes and heights does the Detex Advantex 50/51 vertical rod device cover?
Device widths are 36 inch and 48 inch, and rod lengths are built for 84 inch, 96 inch, or 120 inch door heights. For a tall opening, order the matching height rather than trying to extend standard rods.
4) Can I get the Detex Advantex 50 Series as a top rod only device, and when would I want that?
Yes. The Advantex 50/51 Series is configured either as a top and bottom rod device or as a top rod only device. Top rod only keeps the bottom rod and floor strike out of the opening, which is what many people want where floor dirt, snow melt, or wheeled traffic beats up a bottom bolt. If you order the top and bottom version you get a hardened steel bottom drop bolt with a dust proof strike and an ADA compliant ramped bolt cover.
5) Is the Detex Advantex 5002CN fire rated, and can I get a hurricane rated version?
Both are offered. Rating choices on the 50/51 Series are non-rated, fire rated, hurricane, or hurricane and fire rated together. Note that fire rated openings do not allow mechanical dogging, so match the rating choice and the dogging choice on the same order.
6) What does dummy pull trim mean on the Detex 5002CN/5102CN, and can someone get back in through the door?
Dummy pull trim is a fixed pull on the outside with no latch retraction. It gives people a handle to pull the door shut, but it does not unlock anything, so the opening is exit only from the outside unless the device is dogged down. If you need keyed or lever re-entry from the outside, you need a different trim function on the device.
7) Can I add an alarm or request to exit signal to this Detex vertical rod device?
Yes, and it is ordered as part of the device rather than added later. Electrified choices on the Advantex 50/51 Series are EA hardwired electric alarm, EB electric alarm with battery, EX request to exit signal switch, EE delayed egress, or none. EX is what an integrator specifies to shunt an access control alarm on authorized exit; EE is for a controlled egress door where local code permits delayed egress.
8) What is a Grade 1 fire rated vertical rod device I can use in place of the Detex Advantex 5002CN on a 36 x 84 door?
The Delaney F9100 Series (DLY-694300) is a Grade 1 fire rated heavy duty vertical rod device sized for a 36 inch by 84 inch door in an aluminum finish. The Marks USA M9900FVR 36 x 84 is another fire rated vertical rod exit device, exit only and non-handed. The Detex Advantex 5002CN/5102CN covers 36 inch and 48 inch device sizes with 84, 96, and 120 inch door heights and is handed right hand reverse or left hand reverse, so the non-handed Marks device removes the handing decision if that matters on your order.
9) What surface vertical rod exit device works on a wide stile door instead of the Detex Advantex 5002CN/5102CN?
The Detex Advantex 5002CN/5102CN is built for narrow stile doors, so on an aluminum or hollow metal door with a wide stile the Von Duprin 8827-3FT is the direct alternative - it is a wide stile surface vertical rod exit device, Grade 1, 3 ft, for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Imperial USA ED-VR531 is also a wide stile Grade 1 surface vertical rod device in a 36 inch size, exit only function. Confirm the stile width on the door leaf before ordering either, because narrow stile and wide stile chassis footprints are not interchangeable.
10) Which of these vertical rod exit devices will not accept outside trim like the Detex Advantex 5002CN dummy pull?
The Detex Advantex 5002CN/5102CN is furnished with dummy pull trim on the outside, which is a pull only and does not retract the latch. Several comparable vertical rod devices are exit only with no outside trim at all: the Cal-Royal 9860, the Imperial USA ED-VR531, and the Marks USA M9900VR, M9900VR 48x84, M9900FVR 36x84, and MARM9900F-VR 48x84 are each listed as exit only. If the opening needs a pull on the outside face, an exit only device does not cover it.
11) What dogging options does the Detex Advantex 50/51 exit device come with?
Three choices: 1/8 turn hex dogging, cylinder dogging, or less dogging. Hex dogging is the common pick for a back of house door that gets held in push-pull mode during business hours. Cylinder dogging puts that control on a key so staff cannot dog it at will. Less dogging is what you order on a fire rated opening.
12) What finishes are available on the Detex Advantex 50/51 Series so I can match the rest of my 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. All exposed surfaces are finished over stainless steel with a PVD coating, which holds up better than plated finishes on an exterior door that sees weather and hand traffic.
13) How does the Detex Advantex 50/51 compare to a Grade 2 surface vertical rod like the Cal-Royal 9860?
The Advantex 50/51 is a Grade 1 commercial device with stainless steel construction, built narrow stile for aluminum doors. The Cal-Royal 9860 is a heavy duty Grade 2 exit only surface vertical rod with no fire rating. For a high-abuse school, hospital, or retail exit, the Grade 1 device is the one that matches the spec; for a lower traffic interior opening where Grade 2 is accepted, the 9860 is a simpler option.
14) Will the Detex Advantex bottom bolt trip anyone up on an accessible route?
The bottom drop bolt on the Advantex 50/51 Series comes with an ADA compliant ramped bottom bolt cover, so the bolt housing at the threshold is beveled rather than a square obstruction. That matters on egress paths in schools, healthcare, and government buildings where the floor condition at the door gets inspected.
15) Is there a Grade 2 alternative to the Detex Advantex 50/51 Series vertical rod exit device?
Yes. The Cal-Royal 9860 is a heavy duty surface vertical rod exit device rated Grade 2, exit only, and not fire rated. The Detex Advantex 5002CN/5102CN is Grade 1 and is offered in fire rated, hurricane, hurricane and fire rated, and non-rated configurations. If the opening is on a fire rated assembly or the spec calls for Grade 1, the 9860 will not satisfy it.
16) I need a plain non-rated Grade 1 vertical rod device for a 36 x 84 door. How do the Delaney 8100 and 9100 compare to the Detex Advantex 50/51?
The Delaney 8100 Series (DLY-8100-3684) is a Grade 1 vertical rod device for a 36 inch by 84 inch door, not fire rated. The Delaney 9100 Series (DLY-692301) is a Grade 1 heavy duty vertical rod device for the same 36 by 84 door in a stainless steel finish, also not fire rated. The Detex Advantex 5002CN/5102CN is Grade 1 as well and is offered in a non-rated configuration, plus hurricane and hurricane-with-fire options, and adds a choice of hex dogging, cylinder dogging, or no dogging along with electrified options including request to exit and delayed egress.
17) Do I need a paper template to prep the door for the Detex Advantex 50 Series?
No. The Advantex 50/51 Series ships with a patented mounting plate and strike locator system that takes the place of paper templates for laying out the device and strike positions. Detex also publishes door prep templates and an installation instruction sheet for the 50 Series if your shop preps doors before they reach the site.
18) If I am standardizing exit hardware across a portfolio, can the same Detex 50/51 device cover both my 3 foot and 4 foot leaf doors?
Yes, within one series. The Advantex 50/51 Series is ordered in 36 inch and 48 inch device widths and in 84, 96, and 120 inch door heights, with the same finish range and the same dogging and electrified options across them. That keeps one parts list, one keyway decision on cylinder dogging, and one set of spare rod covers across the building.
