Detex 7014DV-628-36x96 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Detex Advantex 7014DV/7114DV 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 rather than into a center strike, so a pair of wooden double doors with no mullion can be secured with a device on each leaf. The stile is the wide configuration for wood doors, so the door needs enough stile material to take the concealed rod prep.
2) What is the difference between the Detex 70 Series and 71 Series vertical rod devices?
The 70 Series is the top and bottom bolt device, with a steel bottom drop bolt and patented deadlocking on both the top and bottom bolt assemblies. The 71 Series is top latch only, with deadlocking at the top. Choose top and bottom rod where you want the door pinned at the sill; choose top rod only where a bottom bolt is not wanted or the floor condition will not support it.
3) Do I need to order a Detex Advantex 70/71 device handed, or can it be flipped in the field?
You pick a hand when you order, Right Hand Reverse or Left Hand Reverse, but the device itself is field reversible and field sizeable, so an installer can correct the hand or cut it down on site rather than sending it back.
4) Is the Detex Advantex 70/71 concealed rod device available fire rated?
Both fire rated and non-rated builds are offered. Order the fire rated version for openings in a rated wood door assembly; note that fire rated exit devices do not permit mechanical dogging, so specify accordingly on those doors.
5) What door widths and heights does the Detex 70/71 concealed vertical rod device cover?
Device sizes are 36 inch and 48 inch, and rod kits are built for either 96 inch or 120 inch door height. For a tall opening, the 120 inch rod option avoids splicing. Rods adjust with the rods already installed in the door, which makes final latch adjustment much faster on site.
6) Which dogging option should I specify on a Detex Advantex 70/71 device?
Three choices: hex dogging, cylinder dogging, or less dogging. Hex is the low cost shop standard and needs the hex key on hand. Cylinder dogging lets staff hold the latches retracted with a keyed cylinder, which property managers prefer for schools and retail where the same key set controls everything. Less dogging is what you order on a fire rated opening. Electric dogging (ED) is available as an electrified option instead if you want the latches released from a panel or timeclock.
7) Can I get alarm or request-to-exit monitoring built into the Detex 70/71 device?
Yes, four electrified builds are offered: EA hardwired electric alarm for a local alarm on the door, EX request to exit signal switch to report bar pushes back to an access control panel, EE delayed egress for controlled openings, and ED electric dogging. These are factory options, so the integrator needs to specify one at order time rather than retrofitting later.
8) Concealed vertical rod or surface vertical rod: which should I use on my double doors?
Concealed rod, like the Advantex 70/71, hides the rods inside the door, so it looks cleaner and the rods are far harder to abuse or vandalize, but it requires routed door prep and normally a factory-prepped or field-routed wood door. A surface vertical rod device mounts entirely on the face of the door and is the easier retrofit on an existing opening: ZenSupply carries the Von Duprin 8827-3FT wide stile surface vertical rod, Grade 1 for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Imperial USA ED-VR531 wide stile surface vertical rod as alternatives.
9) What is the closest wide stile vertical rod alternative to the Detex Advantex 7014DV/7114DV if a surface mounted rod is acceptable?
The Von Duprin 8827-3FT is a wide stile surface vertical rod exit device, Grade 1, from the 88 Series, prepped for 1-3/4 inch doors in a 3 ft size. The Detex Advantex 7014DV/7114DV is also Grade 1 and wide stile, but its vertical rods are concealed rather than surface mounted, and it is offered with a lever always active outside trim function. Choose the Detex when the rods need to be hidden in the door and outside lever access is required; choose the 8827 when surface rods are acceptable on a 1-3/4 inch door.
10) I only need exit from the inside with no outside trim - is there a simpler vertical rod device than the Detex 7014DV/7114DV?
Yes. The Marks USA M9900VR is a 36 inch by 84 inch vertical rod panic exit device configured exit only and non-handed, and the Imperial USA ED-VR531 is a Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod device also configured exit only. Both omit outside trim entirely. The Detex Advantex 7014DV/7114DV is built around a lever always active outside trim function and must be ordered handed, right hand reverse or left hand reverse, so it is the wrong choice if no outside operation is wanted.
11) What fire rated vertical rod exit devices can I compare against the Detex Advantex 70/71 Series?
The Detex Advantex 7014DV/7114DV is offered in both fire rated and non-rated configurations. Fire rated peers include the Delaney F9100 Series in Grade 1 fire rated for a 36 inch by 84 inch door, the Marks USA M9900FVR fire rated vertical rod device for 36 inch by 84 inch openings, and the Marks USA M9900F-VR for 48 inch by 84 inch openings. The two Marks devices are exit only; the Detex carries a lever always active outside trim function.
12) My door is 120 inches tall - which vertical rod devices cover that?
The Detex Advantex 7014DV/7114DV is ordered by door height in 96 inch and 120 inch, with 36 inch and 48 inch device sizes. The comparable Grade 1 devices are built to shorter fixed openings: the Delaney 9100 and F9100 Series and the Marks USA M9900VR and M9900FVR are specified for 36 inch by 84 inch doors, and the Marks USA 48 inch versions for 48 inch by 84 inch doors. For a 120 inch tall leaf, order the Detex in the 120 inch door height.
13) Which vertical rod exit device supports delayed egress or a request-to-exit switch?
The Detex Advantex 7014DV/7114DV can be ordered with electrified options 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 vertical rod devices, such as the Von Duprin 8827-3FT, the Delaney 9100 and 8100 Series, the Imperial USA ED-VR531, and the Marks USA M9900VR family, are catalogued as mechanical exit devices. If the opening needs a monitored or delayed egress function, order the Detex with the matching electrified option.
14) What does Lever Always Active mean on this Detex exit device?
The outside lever trim stays free at all times, so anyone can pull the door open from the corridor side without a key while the panic bar still provides free egress. It is the right function for doors that must stay accessible during business hours and are locked by other means, and the wrong one if you need the outside trim to be key controlled.
15) Is the Detex Advantex 70/71 Grade 1 panic hardware?
Grade 1, commercial duty, and described as super heavy duty for high-use, high-abuse openings such as schools, hospitals, and warehouses. That is the grade most institutional specifications call for on exit hardware.
16) What are the lower-cost alternatives to a Detex Advantex 70/71 for a light-traffic double door?
If the opening does not need Grade 1 hardware or concealed rods, the Cal-Royal 9860 surface vertical rod is a Grade 2, heavy duty, exit only device with ADA compliance and no fire rating. Delaney's 8100 and 9100 Series surface vertical rod devices are Grade 1 non-rated for a 36 x 84 door, and the Delaney F9100 Series is the fire rated Grade 1 version. All of those are surface mounted, so the door does not have to be routed for concealed rods.
17) Does the Detex Advantex re-latch reliably at the top and bottom, or do the bolts drag?
The top latch uses a 6-position multi-step action that holds both the top and bottom bolts retracted until the door is actually closed, so the bolts are not scraping the frame and sill on every swing. That is what gives more consistent re-latching on a pair of wood doors, which is where most vertical rod callbacks come from.
18) How much door prep does the Detex 70/71 concealed rod device need on a wood door?
Detex uses a patented mounting plate system on the Advantex series to keep door preparation minimal and the hole locations accurate. Detex publishes installation instructions and door prep templates for the 70/71 Series, so route and drill from those templates rather than off the device itself. The angled heavy duty end cap is also worth noting on high-abuse doors, it deflects cart and door-stop damage away from the device body.
19) Which vertical rod device should I use if I want a top rod only device with no bottom bolt?
The Detex Advantex 7014DV/7114DV is ordered as either a top and bottom rod device or a top rod only device, so it covers the case where a bottom bolt is not wanted at the threshold. The comparable Grade 1 vertical rod devices, including the Delaney 9100 and 8100 Series, the Imperial USA ED-VR531, and the Von Duprin 8827-3FT wide stile surface device, are catalogued as single vertical rod configurations without that top-rod-only choice called out.
20) I need a decorative finish on a vertical rod device - how does the Detex 70/71 Series compare?
The Detex Advantex 7014DV/7114DV is offered in ten finishes: 605 polished brass, 606 brushed brass, 611 polished bronze, 612 brushed bronze, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 628 brushed aluminum, 629 polished stainless steel, 630 brushed stainless steel, 693 black painted, and 695 dark bronze painted. Among the comparables, the Delaney 9100 Series device is catalogued in a stainless steel finish and the Delaney F9100 Series in an aluminum finish. For brass, bronze, oil rubbed bronze, or painted black, the Detex is the one that carries those options.
21) What finishes does the Detex Advantex 70/71 exit device come in to match 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. 628 and 630 are the usual commercial defaults, and 613 or 695 are the common choices on wood door entries where dark hardware is wanted.
