Detex 8702WP-630-36x84 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Detex 8702WP concealed vertical rod device work on a pair of doors without a mullion?
Yes. The Advantex 8702WP is built for hollow metal doors without a mullion. Because it is a vertical rod device, it latches into the frame head and into the floor with a bottom drop bolt rather than into a center strike, so a pair of doors can be secured with no removable mullion in between. If you need a rim device on the same opening, that is where a mullion becomes necessary.
2) Is the Detex 8702WP a wide stile or narrow stile exit device?
Wide stile, and specifically for hollow metal doors. That matters on aluminum storefront: a narrow stile aluminum door will not take a wide stile chassis. The wide configuration also gives room for varying door preps and weather strip thicknesses. For narrow stile aluminum openings you need a narrow stile device instead.
3) Can I get the Detex Advantex 8702WP fire rated?
Yes. The 8702WP is offered in three rating configurations, Non-Rated, Fire Rated, and Tornado Rated, and you pick one when ordering. Fire rated openings also require the device be ordered without mechanical dogging, so choose the Less/No dogging option on a labeled door rather than hex or cylinder dogging.
4) What door widths and heights does the Detex 8702WP cover?
Device sizes are 36 inch and 48 inch, and each is offered for 84 inch, 96 inch, and 120 inch door heights, which sets the concealed rod length. On the taller 96 and 120 inch doors order the matching height rather than trying to stretch a shorter rod set. The rods are field adjustable and can be trimmed with them installed in the door for final sizing.
5) What does the 8702WP dummy pull trim mean for outside access?
The 02 function is dummy pull trim, so the outside trim is a fixed pull with no key cylinder and no latch retraction from the outside. Pulling it will not open the door. Use it where the opening is egress only and re-entry is controlled another way, and choose a keyed lever or keyed pull function instead if staff need to get back in through that door.
6) I need a fire rated vertical rod device but concealed rods are not practical on my existing door. What else is there?
Concealed rods need the door prepped for them, which is a problem on an existing slab. Surface mounted fire rated alternatives we carry include the Marks USA M9900FVR for a 36 by 84 door and the MARM9900F-VR for 48 by 84, both exit only and fire rated, and the Delaney F9100 Series fire rated Grade 1 vertical rod for a 36 by 84 door in aluminum finish. Those mount to the door face instead of inside it.
7) I need a vertical rod exit device but the door is not prepped for concealed rods - what should I use instead?
The Detex Advantex 8702WP is a concealed vertical rod device, which requires a door prepped to take the rods inside the stile. For an unprepped hollow metal door, a surface vertical rod device is the usual answer: the Von Duprin 8827-3FT is Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Imperial USA ED-VR531 is a 36 inch Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod device in exit only function.
8) Is the Cal-Royal 9860 an equivalent substitute for the Detex 8702WP?
They are not equivalent. The Cal-Royal 9860 is a heavy duty Grade 2 surface vertical rod device in exit only function and is not fire rated. The Detex Advantex 8702WP is Grade 1, comes in non-rated, fire rated and tornado rated builds, and is a concealed vertical rod device supplied with dummy pull trim. If the opening is specified Grade 1 or needs a fire label, the 9860 will not cover it.
9) What Grade 1 fire rated vertical rod devices can I use besides the Detex 8702WP?
The Detex Advantex 8702WP is offered in a fire rated build in both 36 inch and 48 inch widths. Other Grade 1 fire rated vertical rod options include the Delaney F9100 Series, cataloged fire rated Grade 1 for a 36 by 84 inch door in an aluminum finish, and the Marks USA M9900FVR fire rated vertical rod device in 36 by 84 inch, with a 48 by 84 inch version as the MARM9900F-VR. The Marks devices are exit only and non-handed, while the 8702WP is a handed, field-reversible device with dummy pull trim.
10) For a tall door over 84 inches, which vertical rod device should I be looking at?
The Detex Advantex 8702WP is built for 84 inch, 96 inch and 120 inch door heights in both 36 inch and 48 inch device widths, with rods that can be field sized with the rods installed in the door. The comparable Grade 1 vertical rod devices from Delaney and Marks USA are cataloged for 84 inch door heights, so for a 96 or 120 inch leaf the 8702WP is the one to specify.
11) What dogging choices are there on the Detex Advantex 87 Series, and which should I pick?
Three: hex key dogging, cylinder dogging, or less dogging. Hex dogging is the common choice on non-rated doors where staff hold the latch retracted during business hours. Cylinder dogging does the same with a keyed cylinder, so maintenance staff use the same key they already carry instead of an Allen wrench. Less dogging is what you order on a fire rated opening.
12) What electrified options can I order with the Detex 87 Series concealed vertical rod device?
Four, plus 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 when the access control system needs a signal that someone pushed the bar. EB suits a door with no power run to it, since the alarm runs on battery. EE delayed egress is the choice for loss prevention or a secure unit, subject to what your local code allows for that occupancy.
13) Is the Detex Advantex 8702WP Grade 1, and how does it compare to a Von Duprin 8827 or a Cal-Royal 9860?
The 8702WP is Grade 1. The closest cross-brand wide stile Grade 1 vertical rod we carry is the Von Duprin 8827-3FT, a 3 ft surface vertical rod for 1-3/4 inch doors. The difference is rod placement: the Detex runs concealed rods inside the door for a cleaner face, the Von Duprin runs them on the surface, which is easier to service and easier to retrofit. If Grade 2 is acceptable, the Cal-Royal 9860 is a heavy duty surface vertical rod, exit only, non fire rated.
14) Why does the Detex 87 Series re-latch more reliably than a typical vertical rod device?
A 6-position multi-step action in the top latch holds both the top and bottom bolts retracted until the door actually closes, then deadlocks them. On a high traffic door that means the bottom bolt is not dragging or hanging up on the threshold on every swing, which is the usual reason maintenance gets called back to a vertical rod opening. The top strike adjusts both vertically and horizontally to dial in alignment.
15) Do I have to specify handing on the Detex 8702WP the way I do on other vertical rod devices?
Yes. The Detex Advantex 8702WP is ordered as right hand reverse or left hand reverse, though the device is field reversible. By contrast the Marks USA M9900VR and the fire rated M9900FVR are cataloged as non-handed, so handing is not part of the order on those.
16) Is there a simpler vertical rod exit device if I do not need the pull trim or the electrified options?
Yes. The Detex Advantex 8702WP includes dummy pull trim and can be ordered with electrified options such as EA hardwired electric alarm, EX request to exit switch, EE delayed egress or EB alarm with battery. For a plain push-to-exit opening, the Marks USA M9900VR is an exit only non-handed vertical rod panic device in 36 by 84 inch, with a 48 by 84 inch version, and the Imperial USA ED-VR531 is a 36 inch Grade 1 exit only surface vertical rod device.
17) How do the Delaney 8100 and 9100 Series vertical rod devices differ from the Detex Advantex 8702WP?
The Delaney 9100 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty vertical rod device for a 36 by 84 inch door in a stainless steel finish, and the Delaney 8100 Series is a Grade 1 vertical rod device for the same 36 by 84 inch opening; both are cataloged non-fire-rated. The Detex Advantex 8702WP is also Grade 1 but is a concealed vertical rod device in 630 brushed stainless steel, offered in non-rated, fire rated and tornado rated builds and in 36 inch or 48 inch widths for 84, 96 or 120 inch doors.
18) What finish does the Detex 8702WP come in?
One finish, 630 brushed stainless steel, on both the device and the dummy pull trim. If your other openings are standard commercial stainless or satin chrome trim, 630 reads as a close match. Where a building is standardized on dark bronze or painted hardware, this will not blend.
19) Where can I get the door prep template and install instructions for the Detex Advantex 8702WP?
Detex publishes both. The installation instruction sheet and the 87 Series catalog page are available as PDFs, and Detex hosts the Advantex 87 Series door prep templates on their support and training pages. Pull the template before cutting a hollow metal door, since the concealed rod prep has to be routed in the door edge.
