Detex 7009DV-628-36x96 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Detex Advantex 7009DV/7109DV work on a pair of wood doors with no mullion?
That is exactly what it is built for. The Advantex 70/71 Series concealed vertical rod device latches at the head and the sill, so a pair of wood doors without a center mullion is secured without adding one. It is a wide stile device intended for wood doors, so confirm your stile is wide enough to take the concealed rods before ordering.
2) Do I have to order the Detex 70/71 Series handed, or can it be reversed in the field?
You pick a hand when ordering, right hand reverse or left hand reverse, but the device is field reversible and also field sizeable, so a wrong-hand unit on site is not a lost trip.
3) What door sizes and heights does the Detex Advantex 70/71 concealed rod device cover?
Device widths are 36 inch and 48 inch, and rods are supplied for 96 inch or 120 inch door heights. The 120 inch option is what you order for tall openings rather than sourcing separate rod extensions. Rods adjust with them installed in the door, so final fit is handled on site.
4) What is the difference between the top rod only and the top and bottom rod version?
Top and bottom rod is the full 70 Series arrangement, latching at both head and threshold, and it carries patented deadlocking on both the top and bottom bolt assemblies. Top rod only drops the bottom bolt, which keeps the floor clear of a strike and is the usual choice where debris, carpet, or wheeled traffic would foul a bottom latch; deadlocking on that version is at the top bolt. Either way the top latch uses a 6 position multi-step action that holds the bolts retracted until the door closes, so relatching is consistent.
5) Is the Detex 70/71 Series available fire rated for a labeled wood door pair?
Yes, it is offered as fire rated or non-rated, so specify the rated version for a labeled opening. Note that fire rated exit devices cannot be dogged down, so pair a rated device with the less/no dogging option.
6) Can I get the Detex Advantex 70/71 with delayed egress or a request-to-exit switch?
Yes. Electrified options are None, EA hardwired electric alarm, EX request to exit signal switch, EE delayed egress, and ED electric dogging. EX is the one to spec when the access control system needs a REX input; EE is the 15 second delayed egress build for loss prevention or wander management; ED lets the access panel dog and undog the device on a schedule.
7) Concealed vertical rod or surface vertical rod, which should I use on a wood pair?
Concealed rod, like the Detex Advantex 70/71, hides the rods inside the door for a clean look and keeps them out of reach of abuse, but the door has to be prepped for it, which effectively means ordering the doors that way or routing them. Surface vertical rod is the retrofit-friendly choice because the rods mount on the door face and no internal prep is needed. If that is your situation, the Von Duprin 8827-3FT is a wide stile Grade 1 surface vertical rod device for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Imperial USA ED-VR531 is another wide stile Grade 1 surface vertical rod option at 36 inches.
8) If I do not need outside key access, what vertical rod device can I use instead of the Detex 7009DV/7109DV?
The Detex Advantex 7009DV/7109DV carries a key unlocks lever, locked when key removed function, so it includes outside lever trim and a cylinder. For an opening that only needs egress with no outside operation, exit-only vertical rod devices include the Marks USA M9900VR in 36 inch by 84 inch and the M9900VR 48 inch by 84 inch, and the Imperial USA ED-VR531, a Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod device in 36 inch. Exit-only means there is no outside trim to key.
9) What fire rated vertical rod exit devices compare to the Detex Advantex 7009DV/7109DV?
The Detex Advantex 70/71 Series 7009DV/7109DV is ordered in either a Fire Rated or Non-Rated build. Other fire rated vertical rod devices include the Delaney F9100 Series (DLY-694300), a Grade 1 fire rated heavy duty vertical rod device for a 36 inch by 84 inch door in aluminum finish, and the Marks USA M9900FVR fire rated vertical rod device for 36 inch by 84 inch and the M9900F-VR for 48 inch by 84 inch, both exit only. The Detex differs in that it carries outside lever trim with key control.
10) How does the key function work on the Detex Advantex 7009DV lever trim?
The key unlocks the lever, and turning the key out relocks it. So the lever stays free for entry only while the cylinder is left unlocked, and pulling the key secures the outside trim. Free egress from the inside is always available through the push pad regardless.
11) What dogging choices do I have on the Detex 70/71 exit device?
Three: hex dogging, cylinder dogging, or less/no dogging. Hex key dogging is the standard shop choice and needs the Allen wrench on hand; cylinder dogging lets you hold the pad down with a keyed cylinder, which is what most schools and offices want so maintenance is not the only one who can prop the door latch-free during business hours.
12) Is the Detex 70/71 Series a Grade 1 device suitable for a high-traffic school or hospital entry?
It is Grade 1 commercial panic and fire exit hardware, built for high-use, high-abuse openings, and it is used in schools, healthcare, office, retail, industrial, multi-tenant residential, and government buildings.
13) Is the Cal-Royal 9860 a direct substitute for the Detex Advantex 70/71?
No. The Cal-Royal 9860 is a Grade 2 heavy duty surface vertical rod device, exit only and non-rated, so it is a lighter class of hardware with no keyed lever and no fire rating. The Detex 70/71 is Grade 1 with keyed lever trim and a fire rated build available. If you need Grade 1 but simpler, the Delaney 9100 Series vertical rod device for a 36 x 84 door is Grade 1 non-rated, and the Delaney F9100 Series is the Grade 1 fire rated equivalent.
14) How hard is the Detex 70/71 to install and how do I get the door prep right?
Detex uses a patented mounting plate system on the Advantex line, which is what keeps the door prep minimal and the hole locations accurate. Work from the published door prep templates and the installation instructions rather than measuring off the device. The top strike adjusts vertically and for weather strip thickness, so head clearance on an exterior pair can be dialed in after hanging, and rods are adjustable with them already in the door.
15) What Grade 1 non-rated vertical rod devices can I quote alongside the Detex Advantex 7009DV/7109DV for a 36 inch door?
For a 36 inch opening, the Detex Advantex 7009DV/7109DV is offered in a 36 inch device size in a non-rated build. Comparable Grade 1 non-rated vertical rod devices sized for a 36 inch by 84 inch door include the Delaney 9100 Series (DLY-692301) in stainless steel finish and the Delaney 8100 Series (DLY-8100-3684). Both are exit device bodies for that single door width, while the Detex is built for wood double doors without a mullion.
16) Which vertical rod device should I pick if handing is a problem on the order?
The Detex Advantex 7009DV/7109DV is a handed device ordered as Right Hand Reverse or Left Hand Reverse, though it is field reversible and field sizeable. If you would rather avoid handing entirely, the Marks USA M9900VR 36 inch by 84 inch and the Marks USA M9900FVR fire rated 36 inch by 84 inch are non-handed vertical rod devices, both exit only.
17) What finishes does the Detex Advantex 70/71 concealed vertical rod device come in?
Ten BHMA 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. For matching the rest of a building, 630 and 628 are the usual commercial defaults and 613 or 695 are the dark options.
