Detex 6002DNV-628-36x96 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Detex Advantex 6002DNV/6102DNV fit a narrow stile aluminum storefront door?
That is exactly what it is built for. The Advantex 60/61 Series concealed vertical rod device is a narrow stile device for aluminum doors, with the rods concealed in the stile rather than surface mounted. On a wide stile hollow metal or wood door you would want a wide stile device instead, such as the Von Duprin 8827 surface vertical rod or the Imperial USA ED-VR531.
2) What is the difference between the Detex 6002 and 6102 vertical rod devices?
Rod count. The 60 Series runs top and bottom rods, latching at both the head and the threshold. The 61 Series is top rod only, which keeps the bottom of the opening clear, a common choice where floor debris, snow, or carpet fouls a bottom bolt. Both are selectable when you order.
3) Can this Detex exit device be used on a pair of aluminum doors with no mullion?
Yes. The Advantex 60/61 concealed vertical rod device latches into the head (and the threshold on the top-and-bottom rod version), so it secures a pair of doors without a center mullion. That is the standard reason to pick a vertical rod over a rim device, which needs a mullion on a pair.
4) Does the dummy lever trim on the Detex 6002DNV mean the door can be unlocked from outside?
No. Dummy lever trim is a pull only, it has no latch retraction and no cylinder. Push the pushpad from inside to exit; from the outside the lever is fixed and the door stays secured. If you need keyed or lever entry from outside, specify a different trim function.
5) Is the Detex Advantex 60/61 available fire rated?
Both fire rated and non-rated configurations are offered. Note that fire rated exit hardware cannot be dogged mechanically, so if you select the fire rated version, order it less dogging rather than hex or cylinder dogging.
6) What door sizes and heights does the Detex Advantex 60/61 cover?
Device width is offered for 36 inch and 48 inch door widths, and rod lengths are offered for 96 inch and 120 inch door heights. The device is field sizeable and the rods adjust while installed in the door, so minor height variation is handled on site.
7) Can the Detex Advantex 60/61 be ordered with an alarm or access control tie-in?
Yes, four electrified options are offered on top of the standard mechanical device: EA hardwired electric alarm, EX request-to-exit signal switch for tying into access control or a monitoring panel, EE delayed egress, and ED electric dogging for scheduled unlocking. Pick None if you only want the mechanical device.
8) What is the difference between the Detex 6002DNV/6102DNV and the Von Duprin 8827-3FT vertical rod exit device?
Both are Grade 1 vertical rod panic devices, but they are built for different doors. The Detex Advantex 6002DNV/6102DNV is a concealed vertical rod device for narrow stile aluminum doors, and it carries dummy lever trim. The Von Duprin 8827-3FT is a surface vertical rod device for wide stile doors, sized 3 ft, with a 1-3/4 inch door thickness. If the opening is an aluminum storefront leaf, the Detex narrow stile prep applies; if it is a 1-3/4 inch wide stile door, the 8827-3FT is the fit.
9) Do I have to specify handing for the Detex 6002DNV concealed vertical rod device?
Handing is an order selection, right hand reverse or left hand reverse, which are the two handings used on out-swinging exit doors. The device is also field reversible, so if the wrong hand shows up on site it can be changed without a new order.
10) Which dogging option should I order on the Detex 60/61 exit device?
Three choices: hex dogging, cylinder dogging, or less dogging. Hex key dogging is the low-cost way to hold the pushpad down during business hours. Cylinder dogging keys into your existing system so only keyholders can dog the door, which property managers usually prefer in tenant buildings. Less dogging is the correct pick on a fire rated opening.
11) Is the Detex 60/61 Series Grade 1?
Grade 1, the commercial heavy duty rating, and it is a commercial product rather than residential. Among vertical rod alternatives we carry, the Delaney 9100 Series and the Von Duprin 8827 are also Grade 1, while the Cal-Royal 9860 is Grade 2.
12) My exit doors fail to re-latch at the top. Does the Detex Advantex address that?
The top latch uses a 6-position multi-step action that holds both the top and bottom bolts retracted until the door is fully closed, so the bolts do not drag or hang up on the strike. The top strike also adjusts vertically and for weather strip thickness, which is usually where storefront re-latching problems start.
13) What is a cheaper alternative to a Detex concealed vertical rod device for a non-rated exit door?
If the door is wide stile and you do not need concealed rods, surface vertical rod devices are the simpler route. The Marks USA M9900VR in 36 x 84 or 48 x 84 and the Cal-Royal 9860 are exit-only surface vertical rod devices, both non fire rated. Neither is a narrow stile aluminum device, so they will not substitute on a storefront door.
14) How does the Delaney 9100 Series compare to the Detex 6002DNV/6102DNV for a non-rated opening?
Both are Grade 1 and both can be specified non-rated. The Delaney 9100 Series (DLY-692301) is a heavy duty vertical rod device built for a 36 inch by 84 inch door in a stainless steel finish with no fire rating, and the Delaney 8100 Series (DLY-8100-3684) is another Grade 1 non-rated vertical rod device for the same 36 inch by 84 inch opening. The Detex Advantex 6002DNV/6102DNV differs in that its rods are concealed, it is prepped for narrow stile aluminum doors, and it can be ordered with top and bottom rods or top rod only.
15) Is the Cal-Royal 9860 a substitute for the Detex 6002DNV/6102DNV?
They are not interchangeable on the same spec. The Detex Advantex 6002DNV/6102DNV is Grade 1 and available fire rated, with dummy lever trim on the outside. The Cal-Royal 9860 is a heavy duty Grade 2 surface vertical rod device, exit only function, with no fire rating. Use the 9860 only where a Grade 2 non-rated exit only device satisfies the drawing.
16) What is a simpler vertical rod exit device if I do not need the dummy lever trim the Detex 6002DNV/6102DNV includes?
The Detex Advantex 6002DNV/6102DNV includes dummy lever trim for pull-side appearance. If the door only needs push-to-exit with no outside trim, exit only devices cover it: the Marks USA M9900VR is a non-handed 36 inch by 84 inch vertical rod exit only device, the M9900VR-48X84 is the 48 inch version, and the Imperial USA ED-VR531 is a Grade 1 36 inch surface vertical rod exit only device for wide stile doors.
17) Which vertical rod exit devices come non-handed instead of requiring a hand like the Detex 60/61 Series?
The Detex Advantex 6002DNV/6102DNV is ordered by hand, right hand reverse or left hand reverse, and is field reversible. If you would rather stock a non-handed device, the Marks USA M9900VR is a non-handed 36 inch by 84 inch vertical rod panic device, and the fire rated M9900FVR at 36 inch by 84 inch is also non-handed.
18) Which of these vertical rod exit devices can be ordered with electrified options like delayed egress or request to exit?
The Detex Advantex 6002DNV/6102DNV is the one configured that way, with electrified choices including EA hardwired electric alarm, EX request to exit signal switch, EE delayed egress, and ED electric dogging, plus hex or cylinder dogging. The comparable devices from Cal-Royal, Delaney, Imperial USA, Marks USA, and Von Duprin are catalogued as mechanical vertical rod devices in exit only or standard panic configurations.
19) What finishes does the Detex Advantex 60/61 come in to match the other doors in my building?
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 frames.
20) How much door prep does the Detex Advantex 60/61 need on an aluminum door?
Prep is reduced compared to typical concealed rod hardware, and Detex uses a patented mounting plate to locate the device accurately. Detex publishes door prep templates and full installation instructions for the 60/61 Series, and those should be pulled before any routing or drilling.
