Detex 7001CV-628-36x96 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Detex Advantex 7001CV concealed vertical rod device work on a pair of wood doors without a mullion?
That's exactly what it's built for. The Detex Advantex 70/71 Series concealed vertical rod device latches at the head and, in the top-and-bottom-rod configuration, at the threshold, so it secures wood double doors with no center mullion. The stile is wide type, specified for wood door construction.
2) What is the difference between the top-rod-only and the top-and-bottom-rod Detex Advantex 70/71 device?
Two rod configurations are offered: top and bottom rod, which bolts into both the frame head and the threshold, and top rod only, which latches at the head alone. Top rod only is the choice where a floor strike isn't wanted (carpet, drainage, sweep clearance or ADA threshold concerns). Note that the patented deadlocking covers the top bolt on both the 70 and 71 Series, while bottom bolt deadlocking is a 70 Series feature.
3) What door widths and heights does the Detex 7001CV/7101CV cover?
Device sizes are 36 inch and 48 inch, and rod kits are supplied for 96 inch or 120 inch door heights. Rods are field sizeable and can be adjusted while the device is installed in the door, so minor height variation is handled on site.
4) Do I have to specify handing on the Detex Advantex 70/71 series?
Yes. Handing is ordered as right hand reverse or left hand reverse, which is normal for exit devices since they always swing out. The device is field reversible, so a unit can be switched in the field if the opening turns out to be the other hand.
5) What dogging options are there on the Detex 70/71 concealed vertical rod device, and which should I pick for a retail entrance?
Three choices: hex dogging, cylinder dogging, or less/no dogging. Hex key dogging is the standard low-cost option for back-of-house doors. Cylinder dogging is the pick for a retail or public entrance where staff should hold the doors push-pull during business hours without a loose hex wrench, and it also lets you key the dogging cylinder into the building keyway. Dogging uses a 1/8 turn. Choose less/no dogging on fire rated openings.
6) Can I get the Detex Advantex 70/71 with an alarm or delayed egress?
Four electrified options are built into the 70/71 Series besides the plain mechanical device: EA hardwired electric alarm, EX request-to-exit signal switch, EE delayed egress, and ED electric dogging. EX is the one to spec when you need to signal an access control panel or shunt an alarm on authorized exit; EE is for delayed egress applications where local code and the AHJ permit it; ED lets the doors be dogged and released from a time clock or the front desk rather than by hand.
7) Does the Detex 7001CV/7101CV come with outside trim or a lever?
No. It is an exit-only device with a cover plate, meaning there is no outside operating trim, no lever and no cylinder pull. Anyone outside stays outside unless you add separate exterior hardware. If the opening needs entry from outside, you need a device with keyed or lever trim instead.
8) Concealed vertical rod or surface vertical rod on a wood door pair, which do I use?
Concealed rod, like the Detex 7001CV/7101CV, runs the rods inside the door, so nothing is exposed to abuse or vandalism and the pair looks clean, but the door must be prepped to take the rods, which realistically means ordering doors prepped or routing them. Surface vertical rod devices mount entirely on the face of the door and are the practical choice for retrofitting existing doors that were never prepped. ZenSupply carries surface rod alternatives including the Von Duprin 8827 wide stile Grade 1 device and the Imperial USA ED-VR531 wide stile Grade 1 device.
9) Is there a fire rated vertical rod exit device alternative to the Detex Advantex 70/71 Series?
The Detex Advantex 7001CV/7101CV concealed vertical rod device is ordered in either a Fire Rated or Non-Rated configuration, so the rating is a selection rather than a separate model. If a surface-rod fire rated device suits the opening instead, the Delaney F9100 Series 694300 is a Grade 1 fire rated heavy duty vertical rod device for a 36 by 84 inch door in an aluminum finish, and Marks USA offers the M9900FVR at 36 by 84 inches and the M9900F-VR at 48 by 84 inches, both fire rated exit only devices.
10) Is the Cal-Royal 9860 a substitute for the Detex 7001CV/7101CV?
They are not interchangeable on a Grade 1 specification. The Cal-Royal 9860 is a heavy duty surface vertical rod exit device, exit only, rated Grade 2 and not fire rated. The Detex Advantex 7001CV/7101CV is Grade 1 and is offered in a fire rated configuration, with concealed rods rather than surface rods. Use the 9860 only where the drawing accepts a Grade 2 non-rated surface device.
11) What is the difference between the Detex 7001CV/7101CV and the Von Duprin 8827-3FT?
Both are Grade 1 wide stile vertical rod exit devices, but they run the rods differently. The Detex Advantex 7001CV/7101CV is a concealed vertical rod device, with the rods hidden inside the door, and its wide stile version is set up for wood doors. The Von Duprin 8827-3FT is a surface vertical rod device in the 88 Series, with rods mounted on the face of the door, and it is listed for 1-3/4 inch door thickness in a 3 ft width. If the door is already routed for concealed rods, or the specification calls for concealed rods, the Detex is the matching configuration; for a surface-applied retrofit with no routing, the 8827 style applies.
12) What finishes does the Detex Advantex 70/71 exit device come in for matching existing openings?
Ten BHMA finishes are produced: 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. For matching a building's existing hardware, work from the BHMA number rather than the description; 630 and 628 are the usual commercial defaults and 613 or 695 the common dark choices on wood doors.
13) What else does ZenSupply carry if I need a Grade 1 fire rated vertical rod exit device but not a concealed one?
Two fire rated surface options: the Delaney F9100 Series Grade 1 fire rated vertical rod device for a 36 x 84 door, and the Marks USA M9900FVR fire rated vertical rod exit device, exit only and non-handed, in 36 x 84 or 48 x 84. The Marks unit being non-handed is worth noting if you are stocking spares for a building with openings of both hands. The Detex 70/71 is handed and ordered right hand reverse or left hand reverse.
14) Why do the bottom bolts on this Detex device stay up until the door shuts?
The top latch uses a 6-position multi-step action that holds both top and bottom bolts retracted until the door actually closes. That stops the bottom rod dragging or catching on the floor as the door swings, and it makes re-latching more consistent. The top strike also adjusts vertically and horizontally, which is how you take up differences in weather strip thickness and still get the latchbolts to re-engage.
15) Do any of the vertical rod alternatives to the Detex 70/71 Series avoid having to specify handing?
The Detex Advantex 7001CV/7101CV is ordered by handing, right hand reverse or left hand reverse, though the device itself is described as field reversible. If you want to stock one device regardless of the door swing, the Marks USA M9900VR at 36 by 84 inches is listed as non-handed, as is the fire rated M9900FVR at 36 by 84 inches. Both are exit only surface vertical rod devices rather than concealed rod.
16) What is a simpler vertical rod device than the Detex 70/71 Series when I do not need electrified functions?
The Detex Advantex 7001CV/7101CV is ordered with electrified options including EA hardwired electric alarm, EX request to exit switch, EE delayed egress and ED electric dogging, or with none of them. If no electrified function is needed at all, straight mechanical Grade 1 vertical rod devices include the Delaney 8100 Series for a 36 by 84 inch door and the Imperial USA ED-VR531 36 inch surface vertical rod, both non fire rated. Note those are surface rod devices, so door prep differs from concealed rod.
17) Are installation templates and instructions available for the Detex Advantex 70/71 door prep?
Yes. Detex publishes installation instructions and a catalog page for the 70/71 Series, both available as PDFs, and door prep templates for the Advantex 70/71 Series. Because this is a concealed rod device the prep matters, and the patented mounting plate system is templated to locate the mounting holes accurately.
