Detex 10EX – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Detex Advantex 10EX rim exit device work on a pair of doors?
Yes, but a pair needs a mullion. The Advantex 10EX is a rim device for single doors and for double doors with mullions, since a rim latch throws into a strike at the edge of the opening rather than at the head and sill. If you cannot use a removable mullion on the pair, you want a vertical rod device instead, such as the Hager 4501 concealed vertical rod device with a wide stile pushpad.
2) What does the Request To Exit switch on the Detex 10EX actually do for my access control system?
The built-in RX signaling switch sends a signal the moment someone pushes the bar, so your access control panel knows the exit was legitimate and can shunt the door alarm or release a mag lock instead of reporting a forced door. It is wired to the panel per the Detex wiring diagrams during installation, and you should verify the electrical requirements against your panel before mounting. If you need the same RX function from a different brand, the Sargent 12-8810 wide stile rim device is listed with RX and MELR.
3) Does the Detex Advantex 10EX meet a Grade 1 spec for a school or hospital opening?
Grade 1 is what the 10EX carries, and Detex states it is tested beyond 1,000,000 cycles, twice the cycling required for Grade 1 UL testing. That is the level institutional specs normally call for on high-traffic egress doors. It is a commercial-duty device, not a residential one.
4) The Detex 10EX will not fit my narrow stile aluminum door - what rim device should I use instead?
The Advantex 10EX is built for wide stile doors, so on a narrow stile aluminum frame look to a narrow stile rim device. Grade 1 options include the Adams Rite 8800 Series 30 inch narrow stile rim device with starwheel interlocking, listed for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors; the Corbin Russwin ED4200 Grade 1 36 inch narrow stile rim device; the Falcon 19-R 36 inch narrow stile exit only device; and the TownSteel ED3700-36 and ED8900-36 narrow stile devices.
5) My opening is a fire rated door - is the Detex 10EX the right choice or do I need a different device?
On a labeled fire door you need a device carried as fire rated. Fire rated rim devices include the Dexter ED1000-R-F-EO, a 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; the Orca OED85 36 inch fire rated rim device; and the Sargent 12-8810-LTRIM, a Grade 1 fire rated wide stile rim device with RX and MELR if you also need request-to-exit signaling like the Advantex 10EX provides.
6) Is an SDC switch bar or pressure sense bar a substitute for the Detex Advantex 10EX?
They are not the same class of hardware. The Advantex 10EX is a Grade 1 rim exit device with a stainless steel deadlocking Pullman latch bolt that latches the door itself, plus a Request To Exit switch. The SDC MSB550 36 inch is a mechanical switch bar that releases an electromagnetic lock, and the SDC PSB560 SureExit 36 inch is a pressure sense bar with tri-failsafe technology - both mount to narrow or wide stile doors and signal a separate locking device rather than providing their own latch. Choose the SDC bars only where the door is held by a mag lock or electric strike.
7) What other wide stile rim exit device has a built-in request-to-exit switch for access control integration?
The Detex Advantex 10EX is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device with an integrated Request To Exit signaling switch. For a comparable wide stile rim device with request-to-exit signaling, the Sargent 12-8810-LTRIM is a Grade 1 fire rated wide stile rim exit device supplied with RX and MELR. The SDC S6136 from the Spectra S6000 series is another electrified wide stile rim device, built on a 4 inch wide stile and listed for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Dormakaba E2103-4908A-36 is an electrified 36 inch rim device furnished with 4908A trim in a classroom function.
8) If the frame has no mullion or stop for a rim strike, what should I use instead of the Detex 10EX?
The Advantex 10EX is a rim device that latches into a surface strike, and it is intended for single doors and pairs with a mullion. Where no mullion or strike surface is available, a concealed vertical rod device latches top and bottom into the frame and floor 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 narrow stile concealed vertical rod version.
9) How hard is the Detex 10EX to lay out and install compared with a standard rim device?
Detex includes a patented mounting plate and strike locator system on the Advantex 10 Series, which sets the strike position off the device itself instead of relying on separate measurement. Door prep templates, installation instructions, a parts list and a maintenance manual are all published for the device, so a locksmith or GC has the prep dimensions in hand before drilling.
10) Will the 10EX hold up in a coastal or wash-down environment?
All exposed surfaces on the Advantex 10EX are finished over stainless steel using a PVD process, and the Pullman-type deadlocking latch bolt is stainless as well. That combination is what Detex points to for corrosion resistance and finish retention in exterior and harsh-duty openings, which is a real differentiator against painted or plated devices.
11) What is a comparable Grade 1 wide stile rim exit device if I do not need the Request To Exit switch?
For a straight mechanical wide stile rim device, the Von Duprin 22 Series pushpad device (36 inch, non-handed, Grade 1, 1-3/4 inch door) and the Corbin Russwin ED5200 (Grade 1, wide stile, 1-3/4 inch door, accepts trim) both cover that. The TownSteel ED1100 and Dormakaba 9300 Series are other Grade 1 wide stile options. You lose the built-in exit signaling, so if the door ties into access control you stay with the 10EX or add a separate request-to-exit sensor.
12) What is a lighter duty alternative to the Detex Advantex 10EX for a low-traffic wide door?
The Advantex 10EX is a super-heavy-duty Grade 1 device tested beyond 1,000,000 cycles. Where the traffic does not call for that, the Design Hardware 2000R-33 is a 33 inch standard duty wide stile rim device with hex key dogging, the Hager 4701 Series 36 inch is a standard duty rim device with Grade 1 BHMA certification, and the Cal-Royal 5000 is a 36 inch wide rim device with a touch bar on a Grade 2 chassis.
13) I need a rim device for a 48 inch wide door instead of a standard 36 inch - what are my options alongside the Detex 10EX?
The Advantex 10EX is field sizeable, so it adapts to different door widths without a special order. If you prefer a device sized for the wider leaf, the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 48 inch crossbar rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors, the DORMA 9300A is a Grade 1 heavy duty 48 inch wide stile rim device listed for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, the Sargent 2828 and 3828 are Grade 1 reversible wide stile rim devices for a 48 inch minimum door width, and the Cal-Royal 5500 is a 48 inch wide rim device with a push bar.
14) We want a crossbar or paddle look rather than a pushpad like the Detex Advantex 10EX - what is comparable?
The Advantex 10EX is a wide stile pushpad style device. For a different actuator on a wide stile door, the CRL Jackson 1095 Series 48 inch is a crossbar rim panic device in exit only function, the CRL Jackson 1095P is the paddle version, and the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 48 inch crossbar rim device. The CRL Jackson 1295 Series is a non-handed push pad wide stile device for 1-3/4 inch doors if you want to stay with a pad.
15) Which rim exit devices are non-handed like the Detex Advantex 10EX?
The Advantex 10EX is a non-handed wide stile rim device, so one part covers both left and right hand openings. Other non-handed or reversible rim devices include the BEST Precision 5101 Series universal non-handed rim device, the BEST 2401 Series narrow stile exit only non-handed device, the Von Duprin 22-3FT 36 inch non-handed wide stile pushpad device, the CRL Jackson 1295 Series non-handed push pad device, and the Sargent 2828 and 3828, which are reversible wide stile devices.
16) We are standardizing a campus on Grade 1 wide stile rim devices - which models can be specified alongside the Detex Advantex 10EX?
The Advantex 10EX is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device for commercial openings, tested beyond 1,000,000 cycles. Other Grade 1 wide stile rim devices that can sit in the same specification are the Von Duprin 22-3FT 36 inch pushpad, the Corbin Russwin ED2200-WO36 and ED5200 36 inch devices, the TownSteel ED1100-36 and ED9700-36 heavy duty devices, the DORMA 8300 Series and 9300A, and the Imperial USA ED-501 36 inch rim panic device.
17) Is the Securitron EMB electromechanical exit bar an alternative to the Detex Advantex 10EX?
They serve different designs. The Advantex 10EX is a Grade 1 mechanical rim exit device with a stainless steel Pullman latch bolt plus a Request To Exit switch, so the panic hardware and the latch are one assembly. The Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar listed for 2-1/4 inch doors, where the locking is done electrically rather than by a mechanical rim latch. Use the EMB only where the design calls for an electrically locked bar, not as a drop-in for a rim panic device.
18) Do I need trim with the Detex 10EX, and which comparable devices accept outside trim?
The Advantex 10EX is a rim exit device with a Request To Exit signaling switch for access control integration. If the opening also needs keyed or lever entry from outside, the Corbin Russwin ED4200 and ED5200 are Grade 1 rim devices listed as exit only or accepting trim, the Sargent 8504 is a Grade 1 narrow design rim device in night latch function, and the Dormakaba E2103-4908A-36 is supplied as an electrified 36 inch rim device with 4908A trim in a classroom function.
19) Can I standardize a whole building on the Advantex 10 Series?
That is the usual reason property managers and facility buyers pick it. Because the 10EX is non-handed and field sizeable, one part number covers left and right hand doors and a range of widths, which cuts what you stock for a portfolio of openings. Keep in mind it is not for wood doors, so wood interior openings on the same property need a different device.
