Detex 8702CV-693-36x84 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Detex 8702CV work on an aluminum storefront door, or is it hollow metal only?
Hollow metal doors. The Advantex 8702CV is a wide stile device, called out specifically for hollow metal doors, so it will not suit a narrow stile aluminum storefront. For glass front openings you need a narrow stile rim or vertical rod device instead.
2) Can the Detex 8702CV latch a pair of doors without a center mullion?
Yes. The 87 Series concealed vertical rod device latches at the head and at the threshold rather than into a mullion strike, so it secures hollow metal pairs with no mullion. That is the main reason to pick a vertical rod over a rim device, which needs either a frame strike on a single door or a mullion on a pair.
3) Do I have to specify handing on the Detex 8702CV, and can it be reversed in the field?
Handing is specified at order, right hand reverse or left hand reverse, and the device is field reversible, so an incorrect hand can be corrected on site without swapping the device.
4) What does the "dummy pull trim" on the 8702CV mean for outside access?
Dummy pull trim is a fixed pull only. There is no outside latch retraction and no key function from the outside, so the opening is exit only from inside with a pull for closing the door from outside. If you need the outside to unlock the door, specify a keyed lever or thumbpiece trim function instead of the 02 dummy pull.
5) Is the Detex 87 Series concealed vertical rod device fire rated?
It is offered three ways: Fire Rated, Non-Rated, and Tornado Rated. The 87 Series is described as panic and fire exit hardware, but the rating you get depends on which option you order, so pick the fire rated version for a rated opening.
6) What door widths and heights does the Detex 8702CV cover, including tall doors?
Device sizes are 36 inch and 48 inch, and rod lengths are ordered by door height in 84 inch, 96 inch, and 120 inch. The 96 and 120 inch options are what you need for tall openings, so measure door height before ordering rather than assuming a standard 84.
7) Can I hold the Detex 8702CV in a pushed state during business hours?
Yes, if you order it with dogging. Three choices are offered: hex dogging, cylinder dogging, or less/no dogging. Cylinder dogging lets staff dog and undog with a key instead of an Allen wrench. Note that dogging is not used on fire rated openings, so a fire rated order is typically specified less dogging.
8) My existing vertical rod device won't re-latch reliably at the top. Does the Detex 87 fix that?
That is what the 6-position multi step action in the top latch is for. It holds the top and bottom bolts retracted until the door is fully closed, then deadlocks both, which gives more consistent re-latching. The top strike also adjusts vertically and for weather strip thickness, and the rods can be adjusted with the rods still installed in the door.
9) Can a Cal-Royal 9860 substitute for a Detex Advantex 8702CV exit device?
Not on a Grade 1 specification. The Cal-Royal 9860 is a heavy duty surface vertical rod exit device rated Grade 2, exit only function, and not fire rated. The Detex Advantex 8702CV is Grade 1 and is offered in fire rated and tornado rated builds as well as non-rated. For an opening where the drawing calls Grade 1, the Delaney 9100 Series (DLY-692301) or the 8100 Series (DLY-8100-3684) vertical rod devices for a 36 by 84 inch door are Grade 1.
10) What is the closest Grade 1 wide stile vertical rod exit device to the Detex 8702CV if the door cannot be prepped for concealed rods?
The Von Duprin 8827-3FT is a wide stile surface vertical rod exit device, Grade 1, in the 88 Series, listed for 1-3/4 inch door thickness and a 3 ft door. The Detex Advantex 8702CV is a concealed vertical rod device with wide stile compatibility for hollow metal doors, so the rods run inside the door rather than on its face. Where the door is not prepped for internal rods, the surface-mounted 8827-3FT keeps the Grade 1 wide stile rating while mounting the rods externally.
11) Is there a fire rated vertical rod exit device alternative to the Detex Advantex 8702CV?
Yes. The Detex 8702CV is offered in Fire Rated, Non-Rated and Tornado Rated configurations. If a different manufacturer is acceptable, the Delaney F9100 Series (DLY-694300) is a Grade 1 fire rated heavy duty vertical rod device for a 36 by 84 inch door in an aluminum finish, and the Marks USA M9900FVR is a fire rated vertical rod exit device for 36 by 84 inch doors, non-handed and exit only. The Marks MARM9900F-VR covers the same fire rated, exit only build for a 48 by 84 inch door.
12) What electrified options can I add to the Detex Advantex 87 Series?
Four electrified choices beyond None: EA hardwired electric alarm, EB electric alarm with battery, EX request to exit signal switch, and EE delayed egress. EX is the one to pick if you just want a signal to an access control panel or camera system; EE is for delayed egress openings; EA and EB give you a local alarm on the device, with EB self powered.
13) Do I have to pull the exit device off the door to rekey the outside trim?
No. On the Advantex 87 Series the outside trim can be changed or rekeyed with the device still mounted, which keeps a rekey from turning into a full removal and re-template job.
14) Why choose a concealed vertical rod device instead of a surface vertical rod?
Concealed rods run inside the door, so there is nothing exposed to be grabbed, kicked, or caught by carts, and the door face stays clean. The trade off is door prep: the door has to be prepped for concealed rods, so a surface mount device like the Von Duprin 8827 wide stile surface vertical rod is the easier retrofit on a door already drilled for surface hardware.
15) What are my alternatives to the Detex 8702CV for a fire rated pair of doors?
Within vertical rod devices ZenSupply also carries the Delaney F9100 Series, Grade 1 and fire rated for a 36 by 84 door, and the Marks USA M9900FVR in 36 by 84 and the M9900F-VR in 48 by 84, both fire rated exit only. Those are surface vertical rod style, exit only, so they suit an opening where you do not need concealed rods or outside trim.
16) Is the Detex 87 Series Grade 1, and is it suitable for a school or hospital exit?
Grade 1, commercial duty, and built super heavy duty for high use and high abuse traffic. That covers educational, healthcare, government, retail, and industrial exits, which is where these get specified for standardizing across a facility.
17) What vertical rod exit device should I use on a 48 inch wide door instead of the Detex 8702CV?
The Detex Advantex 8702CV itself is built in 36 inch and 48 inch device sizes, with door heights of 84, 96 and 120 inches. Among other lines, the Marks USA M9900VR-48X84 is a 48 by 84 inch vertical rod panic exit device, exit only, and the Marks MARM9900F-VR is the 48 by 84 inch fire rated exit only version. Both are surface vertical rod devices rather than concealed rod.
18) I only need push-to-exit with no outside operation. Is there a simpler option than the Detex 8702CV with dummy pull trim?
The Detex Advantex 8702CV carries dummy pull trim, meaning the outside pull does not operate the latch, and the outside trims can be changed or rekeyed without removing the device from the door. If no outside pull is wanted at all, exit only vertical rod devices include the Marks USA M9900VR at 36 by 84 inches, the Imperial USA ED-VR531 wide stile Grade 1 surface vertical rod at 36 inches, and the Cal-Royal 9860, all listed exit only.
19) Do any of the vertical rod alternatives to the Detex 8702CV avoid having to specify handing?
Yes. The Detex Advantex 8702CV is a handed device, ordered right hand reverse or left hand reverse, though it is field-reversible. The Marks USA M9900VR at 36 by 84 inches and the fire rated M9900FVR at 36 by 84 inches are both listed non-handed, so handing does not have to be called out at order time.
20) Does any alternative match the Detex 8702CV finish range or electrified options?
The Detex Advantex 8702CV is offered in nine finishes, including 605 polished brass, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 630 brushed stainless steel and 693 black painted, and with electrified options for hardwired electric alarm, request to exit switch, delayed egress, and electric alarm with battery, plus hex or cylinder dogging. The comparable vertical rod devices are cataloged by size and rating rather than by that finish and electrified range - for example the Delaney F9100 (DLY-694300) is listed in an aluminum finish and the Delaney 9100 (DLY-692301) in stainless steel. If alarm, delayed egress or dogging is part of the spec, stay on the 87 Series.
21) Are the finishes on the Detex 87 Series concealed vertical rod device available in painted as well as plated?
Nine finishes: 605 polished brass, 606 brushed brass, 611 polished bronze, 612 brushed bronze, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 629 polished stainless, 630 brushed stainless, plus two painted options, 693 black and 695 dark bronze. For matching a fleet of existing hollow metal openings, 630 brushed stainless and 693 black are the usual standards.
22) Where do I get door prep templates for the Detex Advantex 87 Series before I order?
Detex publishes both the installation instructions and the 87 Series catalog page, and ZenSupply hosts both as PDFs on the product record. Pull the template set before cutting the door, since concealed rods require the door to be prepped for the rods and the mounting plate system.
