Detex 7002DV-628-36x96 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Detex Advantex 7002DV/7102DV work on a pair of wood doors with no center mullion?
That is exactly what it is built for. The Advantex 70/71 Series concealed vertical rod device latches at the head and, in the top-and-bottom-rod configuration, at the threshold, so a pair of wood doors can be secured without a center mullion. The wide stile version is the one specified for wood doors.
2) Do I have to order the Detex 70/71 vertical rod device handed, or can it be reversed on site?
Handing is selected at order time, right hand reverse or left hand reverse, but the device is field-reversible and field-sizeable, so it can be adjusted on the job if the opening turns out opposite to what was specified. Rods adjust while the device is installed in the door.
3) What is the difference between the 70 Series and the 71 Series Detex Advantex device?
The split is top-and-bottom versus top-only latching. The 70 Series runs a top rod plus a steel bottom drop bolt and deadlocks both top and bottom bolt assemblies. The 71 Series deadlocks the top bolt only and runs without the bottom rod, which is what you want where floor debris, carpet, or a sloped threshold makes a bottom bolt a maintenance problem.
4) Is the Detex 70/71 Series exit device available fire rated?
Both. The Advantex 70/71 concealed vertical rod device is ordered as either fire rated or non-rated. Pick fire rated for a labeled stair or corridor opening; on a fire rated assembly you also cannot use mechanical dogging, so order it less dogging for those doors.
5) What does dummy lever trim mean on this Detex exit device, and can it be locked from outside?
Dummy trim is a pull only. The lever is fixed, it does not retract the latches, so there is no key access and no outside entry through this trim. Egress is always free from the inside push pad. If you need outside entry, you need a keyed or night-latch trim function instead of the DV dummy configuration.
6) Can I get a Detex concealed vertical rod device with delayed egress or a request-to-exit switch?
Yes, the electrified option is chosen when ordering: EE delayed egress, EX request-to-exit signal switch, EA hardwired electric alarm, ED electric dogging, or none. EE is what you specify for controlled-exit openings in retail loss prevention or memory care; EX is a signal only and gives the access control system a valid-exit input.
7) Should I use a concealed vertical rod device or a surface vertical rod on my wood doors?
Concealed rods, like the Advantex 70/71, run inside the door and need the leaf prepped and routed for them, so they suit new doors or a scheduled replacement and give a clean face with nothing exposed to abuse. Surface rods bolt on the face of an existing door with far less prep, which makes them the practical retrofit. If you want a surface mount instead, the Von Duprin 8827-3FT is a Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod device for 1-3/4 inch doors.
8) Which vertical rod exit devices can be used on a fire rated opening instead of the Detex Advantex 70/71?
The Detex Advantex 7002DV/7102DV is offered in both Fire Rated and Non-Rated configurations. If you need a different manufacturer on a rated opening, the Delaney F9100 Series (DLY-694300) is a Grade 1 fire rated heavy duty vertical rod device for a 36 x 84 door in aluminum finish, and the Marks USA M9900FVR is a fire rated vertical rod exit device for a 36 x 84 opening, exit only and non-handed, with the MARM9900F-VR covering 48 x 84. Note that those Marks and Delaney devices are exit only, while the Detex here carries dummy lever trim.
9) What looks like a substitute for the Detex 7002DV/7102DV but will not work on a fire door?
The Cal-Royal 9860 surface vertical rod exit device is not fire rated and is a Grade 2, heavy duty, exit only device. The Delaney 9100 Series (DLY-692301) and 8100 Series (DLY-8100-3684) are Grade 1 vertical rod devices but are also non-fire-rated, as is the Imperial USA ED-VR531 and the Von Duprin 8827-3FT. The Detex Advantex 7002DV/7102DV itself is ordered as either Fire Rated or Non-Rated, so match the rating option to the opening rather than assuming any vertical rod device qualifies.
10) Are there vertical rod devices for doors taller than 84 inches if the Detex 70/71 does not suit?
The Detex Advantex 7002DV/7102DV rods are configured for 96 inch and 120 inch door heights. The comparable vertical rod devices from Marks USA, Delaney and Von Duprin are sized for 84 inch doors, so for a 96 or 120 inch leaf the Detex rod lengths are the ones that cover it.
11) What dogging options does the Detex Advantex 70/71 device come with?
Three choices on the order: hex dogging, cylinder dogging, or less dogging. Hex is the standard allen-key hold-open. Cylinder dogging lets you dog the pad with a key rather than a tool, which is the usual pick for schools and retail where staff hold doors open during business hours. Less dogging is the configuration for fire rated openings.
12) Is the Detex Advantex 70/71 Series Grade 1, and does that matter for a school or hospital?
Grade 1, commercial rated. That is the top ANSI/BHMA durability tier and the one typically written into specs for schools, hospitals and government buildings where traffic is heavy. Among the peers we stock, the Cal-Royal 9860 surface vertical rod is Grade 2, so it will not meet a Grade 1 specification.
13) Why do concealed rod devices fail to re-latch, and does the Detex Advantex address it?
The usual cause is the bolts dropping before the door is fully closed, so they hit the strike face instead of the pocket. The Advantex top latch uses a 6-position multi-step action that holds both the top and bottom bolts retracted until the door closes, which is what gives consistent re-latching on a pair.
14) How much door prep does the Detex 70/71 concealed vertical rod need?
It uses a patented mounting plate system that sets the hole locations for you, and Detex publishes door prep templates and full installation instructions for the 70/71 Series. Route and drill to the template, install the mounting plate, set the rods, then adjust the top latch and bolts for latching.
15) If the opening does not need outside trim, what is a simpler alternative to the Detex 7002DV/7102DV?
The Detex Advantex 7002DV/7102DV ships with dummy lever trim on the outside. For an opening where no outside pull is wanted, exit only vertical rod devices include the Cal-Royal 9860, the Imperial USA ED-VR531 (a wide stile Grade 1 ED-500 Series device for a 36 inch door), and the Marks USA M9900VR in 36 x 84 or 48 x 84. Exit only means push from the inside with no outside trim to operate.
16) Do any of the vertical rod alternatives avoid the handing decision the Detex 70/71 requires?
The Detex Advantex 7002DV/7102DV is ordered as Right Hand Reverse or Left Hand Reverse, though the device itself is described as field-reversible. If you would rather not specify handing at all, the Marks USA M9900VR (36 x 84) and M9900FVR (36 x 84, fire rated) are listed as non-handed exit only devices.
17) What finishes does the Detex Advantex 70/71 Series come in to match the rest of my building's hardware?
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. 628 and 630 are the usual matches for aluminum storefront and commercial stainless trim.
