Detex 6001CNV-628-36x96 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Do I have to specify handing on the Detex Advantex 60/61 exit device?
Yes. It is ordered as Right Hand Reverse or Left Hand Reverse, the two handings used on outswinging exit doors. The device is handed but field reversible, so if the wrong hand shows up on site it can be changed without a new order.
2) Is the Detex Advantex 60/61 device available fire rated?
Both fire rated and non-rated builds of the Advantex 60/61 concealed vertical rod device are offered, so pick the rating that matches the door label on your opening. Note that fire rated exit devices do not permit mechanical dogging, so specify the dogging option accordingly.
3) What door widths and heights does the Detex 60/61 concealed vertical rod device cover?
Device sizes are 36 inch and 48 inch, and rod lengths are supplied for 96 inch or 120 inch door heights. The device is field sizeable and the rods adjust while installed in the door, so minor trimming to an odd opening is handled on site.
4) What is the difference between the Detex Advantex 6001CNV/6101CNV and the Von Duprin 8827-3FT vertical rod exit device?
Both are Grade 1 vertical rod exit devices, but they are built for different door types. The Detex Advantex 6001CNV/6101CNV is a concealed vertical rod device for narrow stile aluminum doors, ordered in 36 inch and 48 inch device sizes with 96 inch or 120 inch door heights and either a top rod only or top and bottom rod configuration. The Von Duprin 8827-3FT is a surface vertical rod device for wide stile doors at 3 ft with a 1-3/4 inch door thickness. If the opening is an aluminum storefront with a narrow stile, the Advantex is the one that fits that stile; if it is a 1-3/4 inch wide stile door and surface rods are acceptable, the 8827 suits it.
5) I need a fire rated vertical rod exit device - does the Detex Advantex 60/61 Series cover that, or should I look at another brand?
The Detex Advantex 6001CNV/6101CNV is ordered in either a Fire Rated or Non-Rated configuration, so the fire rated requirement can be met within the same Grade 1 narrow stile aluminum device. If the opening is not a narrow stile aluminum door, fire rated vertical rod alternatives include the Delaney F9100 Series (DLY-694300), a Grade 1 fire rated heavy duty vertical rod device for a 36 by 84 inch door in aluminum finish, and the Marks USA M9900FVR for 36 by 84 inch or the M9900F-VR for 48 by 84 inch, both fire rated exit only devices.
6) What alternatives should I consider if I need a vertical rod device for a hollow metal or wood door rather than aluminum?
The Detex Advantex 60/61 is a concealed rod device for narrow stile aluminum, so it is the wrong tool for a standard 1-3/4 inch hollow metal door. Surface vertical rod options in that case include the Von Duprin 8827-3FT, listed for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Imperial USA ED-VR531 wide stile Grade 1, or the Marks USA M9900VR at 36 x 84 and 48 x 84. If the door is fire labeled, the Marks M9900FVR and the Delaney F9100 are the fire rated versions.
7) Which dogging option should I order on the Detex Advantex 60/61?
Three choices: hex dogging, cylinder dogging, or less dogging. Hex key dogging is the standard back of house choice. Cylinder dogging lets a keyholder hold the device down without carrying an Allen wrench, which is what most property managers want on a retail or school entry. Order less dogging on fire rated openings. There is also an electric dogging option if you want the device dogged and undogged on a schedule from the access control system.
8) Can the Detex 60/61 exit device signal an alarm or tie into access control?
Yes, through the electrified options ordered with the device: EA hardwired electric alarm, EX request to exit signal switch, EE delayed egress, or ED electric dogging. EX is the one integrators usually want for shunting an alarm point or releasing a mag on valid egress; EE is for openings where code allows a 15 second delayed egress. Choose None for a straight mechanical device.
9) Can I add a lever or pull to the outside of the Detex 60/61, or is it exit only?
As configured it is exit only with a cover plate on the outside, so there is no outside trim function. Egress from the inside by pushing the touchbar, no entry from the pull side. If the opening needs keyed or lever entry from outside, that requires a different trim configuration, not this build.
10) Will the top latch on the Detex 60/61 re-latch reliably if the door is out of adjustment?
The 6 position multi step action holds both top and bottom bolts retracted until the door actually closes, which is what stops the rods dragging or stabbing the frame on a slightly racked aluminum door. The top strike adjusts vertically and for varying weather strip thickness, so you can dial in engagement without shimming.
11) Is the Cal-Royal 9860 a substitute for the Detex Advantex 6001CNV/6101CNV?
They are not interchangeable on a Grade 1 spec. The Detex Advantex 6001CNV/6101CNV is a Grade 1 concealed vertical rod device with Fire Rated and Non-Rated configurations. The Cal-Royal 9860 is a heavy duty Grade 2 surface vertical rod exit device, exit only, with no fire rating. If the drawing calls for Grade 1 or a fire rated opening, the 9860 will not meet it.
12) What is a simpler non-electrified Grade 1 vertical rod device if I do not need the Detex Advantex options?
The Detex Advantex 6001CNV/6101CNV is configured with dogging choices and electrified options including EA hardwired electric alarm, EX request to exit, EE delayed egress, and ED electric dogging, plus handing selection. For a straightforward mechanical Grade 1 vertical rod device on a standard 36 by 84 inch door, the Delaney 8100 Series (DLY-8100-3684) and the Delaney 9100 Series (DLY-692301) in stainless steel finish are both Grade 1 non fire rated vertical rod devices, and the Imperial USA ED-VR531 is a Grade 1 surface vertical rod exit only device at 36 inches for wide stile doors.
13) The Detex Advantex 6001CNV/6101CNV is handed - is there a non-handed vertical rod device instead?
The Detex Advantex 6001CNV/6101CNV is ordered by handing, right hand reverse or left hand reverse, and is field reversible. If you would rather stock a single non-handed device, the Marks USA M9900VR at 36 by 84 inches is a non-handed vertical rod panic exit device, exit only, and the Marks USA M9900FVR at 36 by 84 inches is the non-handed fire rated equivalent.
14) What finishes does the Detex Advantex 60/61 come in so it matches 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.
15) How much door prep does the Detex Advantex concealed rod device need?
Less than most concealed rod devices. The patented mounting plate system is what Detex builds the Advantex line around, and it keeps door preparation to a minimum while locating the device accurately. Detex publishes door prep templates and installation instructions for the 60/61 Series, and both should be pulled before cutting an aluminum door.
