Detex 10EA – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Do I have to order the Detex 10EA handed, and can it be cut down to my door width?
Handing is not a factor. The 10EA is non-handed and field sizeable, so one unit covers left and right hand openings and can be trimmed to the door width on site. For a property manager standardizing across a building, that means fewer part numbers to stock.
2) What does the alarm on the Detex 10EA need for power, and does it run on batteries?
The alarm on the 10EA is hardwired and electronic, not battery operated, so the opening needs power run to the device and wiring routed per the manufacturer's diagrams. Plan on a power feed and wire path at the door before install; Detex publishes the installation instructions and wiring guidance for the 10 Series.
3) Is the Detex Advantex 10EA rated for high traffic openings like a school or hospital exit?
It is a Grade 1 commercial device tested beyond 1,000,000 cycles, twice the cycling required for Grade 1 UL testing. That puts it in the super-heavy-duty class for schools, healthcare, retail and warehouse exits where the door cycles constantly.
4) The Detex 10EA is not wood door compatible - which rim exit devices are?
The 10EA is listed as not wood door compatible. Among rim devices that are, the Adams Rite 8700 Series 30 inch narrow stile Grade 1 device and the fire-rated Adams Rite 3700 Series 30 inch narrow stile Grade 1 device both carry wood door compatibility. If the opening is a wood door and the exit alarm is a hard requirement, the 10EA is not the right selection for that leaf.
5) If the opening is a narrow stile aluminum storefront door, what rim exit device should be used instead of the Detex 10EA?
The 10EA is a wide stile device and will not fit a narrow stile aluminum stile face. For narrow stile openings, the Adams Rite 8800 Series 30 inch rim device covers 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch doors with starwheel interlocking, and the Adams Rite 8700 Series 30 inch is the narrow stile Grade 1 interlocking equivalent for wood or metal doors. Corbin Russwin ED4200 in 36 inches and TownSteel ED3700 in 36 inches are also Grade 1 narrow stile rim devices for 1-3/4 inch doors.
6) For a door needing vertical rod exit hardware rather than a rim device, what replaces the Detex 10EA?
The 10EA is a rim device that latches to a strike at the head. A pair of doors without a mullion generally needs vertical rod hardware instead: the Hager 4501 Series 36 inch is a Grade 1 concealed vertical rod device with a wide stile pushpad, and the Hager 4601 Series 36 inch is the Grade 1 narrow stile concealed vertical rod version. The 10EA is intended for single doors and for double doors with mullions.
7) Which other electrified rim exit devices compare to the Detex Advantex 10EA?
The 10EA is an electronic, non-battery, hardwired device with an integral electric alarm. Other electrified rim options include the SDC S6136 Spectra S6000 Series 36 inch electrified architectural rim device with a 4 inch wide stile, listed for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors; the Dormakaba E2103 electrified 36 inch rim device with 4908A trim in 08-Classroom function; and the Sargent 12-8810-LTRIM fire-rated wide stile rim device with RX and MELR. These differ in what the electrification does - access control release, request-to-exit signaling, or motorized latch retraction - versus the 10EA, whose electric function is a local exit alarm.
8) What is the closest wide stile Grade 1 rim exit device to the Detex Advantex 10EA if the alarm is not needed?
For a purely mechanical wide stile rim device on a hollow metal door, the Von Duprin 22-3FT is a Grade 1 wide stile pushpad rim device, 36 inches, non-handed, for 1-3/4 inch doors. The TownSteel ED1100 in 36 inches and the Corbin Russwin ED5200 in 36 inches are also Grade 1 wide stile rim devices. The 10EA differs in that it is an electronic device with a hardwired electric alarm built into the Grade 1 wide stile chassis, so dropping to any of those three means giving up the exit alarm function entirely.
9) Is an SDC switch bar or pressure sense bar a substitute for the Detex 10EA alarm exit device?
They are not interchangeable. The SDC MSB550 Series 36 inch mechanical switch bar and the SDC SureExit PSB560 Series 36 inch pressure sense bar with tri-failsafe technology both fit narrow or wide stile doors, but they release an electromagnetic lock rather than operate a latch bolt in a rim device. The 10EA is a Grade 1 rim exit device with a stainless steel deadlocking Pullman-type latch bolt that does the latching itself. Choose the SDC bars when the door is held by a mag lock; choose the 10EA when the panic hardware must provide the latching.
10) What is the difference between the Detex 10EA and a plain exit-only rim device?
Mechanically both latch the door and release on a push. The 10EA adds a built-in hardwired electric alarm that signals an unauthorized exit attempt, which is why it goes on stair doors, stockrooms and emergency exits you want monitored. If you only need free egress with no monitoring, a straight exit-only rim device like the Von Duprin 22 Series wide stile pushpad or the Corbin Russwin ED5200 covers it.
11) How is the latch on the Detex Advantex 10EA built, and will it hold up outdoors?
The latch is a stainless steel deadlocking Pullman-type bolt, and all exposed surfaces are finished over stainless steel with a PVD coating for corrosion resistance. That combination is what makes it a reasonable choice on exterior and high-abuse exits rather than interior-only doors.
12) Is the Securitron EMB exit bar an alternative to the Detex 10EA?
The Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar listed for 2-1/4 inch door thickness. It is an electrified exit bar rather than a Grade 1 rim exit device with a Pullman latch bolt and integral hardwired alarm like the 10EA. On a thicker 2-1/4 inch leaf the EMB is the listed fit; where the spec calls for Grade 1 panic and fire rim hardware with exit alarm, the 10EA is the closer match.
13) What is a lower-cost wide stile rim exit device than the Detex 10EA for a low-traffic back door?
If Grade 1 and the alarm are not required, the Cal-Royal 5000 36 inch wide rim device with touch bar is a Grade 2 heavy duty chassis, and the Cal-Royal 5500 48 inch wide rim device with push bar is also Grade 2 heavy duty; the Design Hardware 2000R 33 inch is a standard duty wide stile rim device with hex key dogging. The 10EA sits above these as a Grade 1 device tested beyond 1,000,000 cycles, which is twice the cycling required for Grade 1 UL testing, so the trade is cycle life and the alarm function against the simpler chassis.
14) What should be specified instead of the Detex 10EA on a crossbar-style opening or where a paddle release is wanted?
The 10EA is a pushpad-style wide stile rim device. Where the opening calls for a crossbar, the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 48 inch crossbar rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors and the CRL Jackson 1095 Series 48 inch crossbar rim panic device is a wide stile exit-only option; the Sargent 3828 is a Grade 1 reversible standard push bar wide stile device for 48 inch doors. For paddle release, the CRL Jackson 1095P Series paddle rim panic device is the wide stile exit-only choice.
15) If a rim device with a keyed night latch or lever trim function is needed rather than the Detex 10EA, what are the options?
The 10EA is an alarmed rim device. Where the spec calls for outside trim, the Corbin Russwin ED4200 36 inch narrow stile Grade 1 device and the ED5200 36 inch wide stile Grade 1 device are both listed as exit only or accepting trim, and the Sargent 8504 is a Grade 1 narrow design rim device in night latch function. Those provide keyed or trim-controlled entry, which is a different requirement from the 10EA's exit alarm.
16) Which fire-rated rim exit devices are alternatives when comparing against the Detex Advantex 10EA?
Fire-rated rim devices in the same class include the Dexter ED1000 Series Grade 1 fire rated rim device, the Marks USA M9900F in 36 inch and 48 inch exit-only versions with a panic protector end cap, the Arrow FS1250 fire rated 32 inch rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Orca OED85 Series 36 inch fire rated exit-only rim device. The 10EA is a Grade 1 panic and fire exit hardware device with a hardwired alarm, so confirm the fire label listing on the specific configuration ordered.
17) For standardizing a facility on one wide stile Grade 1 rim exit device, which alternatives to the Detex 10EA cover both 36 inch and 48 inch doors?
For a mixed fleet of 36 and 48 inch leaves, Dexter ED1000 Series Grade 1 rim devices come in 3FT and 4FT lengths, and Marks USA M9900 is offered in 36 inch and 48 inch. On the wide stile Grade 1 side, the DORMA 9300 Series 48 inch device covers 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch doors and the Corbin Russwin ED2200 36 inch is exit only. The 10EA is field sizeable and non-handed, which lets one device cover a range of door widths without stocking separate lengths or hands.
18) Is the Detex 10EA hard to install and line up with the strike?
Detex uses a patented mounting plate and strike locator system on the Advantex 10 Series specifically to get the device and strike aligned on the first try. Door prep templates, a parts list and a maintenance manual are all published for the series, which is what you want in hand before drilling a hollow metal door.
