Detex 10EXXW – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Detex Advantex 10EXxW work on an exterior door that gets rain and weather?
That is exactly what the 10EXxW is built for. It's the weatherized version of the Advantex 10 Series rim device, with all exposed surfaces finished over stainless steel using a PVD process, and a stainless steel deadlocking Pullman-type latchbolt. Exposed exterior openings, loading docks, stadium and perimeter gates are the usual applications for a weatherized rim device rather than a standard interior one.
2) Does a rim exit device like this work on a pair of doors, or do I need a mullion?
A rim device latches into a strike on the frame, so on a pair of doors it needs something to latch into at the center. The Advantex 10 Series is made for single doors and for double doors used with a mullion, so plan on a removable or fixed mullion for pairs. If you cannot use a mullion because the opening has to stay clear, a vertical rod device is the right type instead, such as the Hager 4501 concealed vertical rod device with a wide stile pushpad.
3) What does the EX in Detex 10EXxW mean, and do I need it for my access control system?
EX is the request-to-exit signaling switch built into the device. When someone pushes the touchpad, the switch sends a signal to the access control panel so it can shunt the alarm or release a mag lock rather than registering a forced door. If your opening is card-access controlled or monitored, that is the option you want. On a stand-alone mechanical opening with no panel, you do not need it.
4) My opening is a wood door. Which rim exit device works there instead of the Detex 10EXxW?
The Detex Advantex 10EXxW is not rated for wood doors. Among rim devices that are, the Adams Rite 8700 Series 30 inch is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device listed as wood door compatible, and the Adams Rite 3700 Series 30 inch is the fire rated Grade 1 equivalent that is also wood door compatible. Both use the Starwheel interlocking latch, so confirm the strike condition on the frame before ordering.
5) My door is a narrow stile aluminum storefront. Will the Detex 10EXxW fit, and if not what rim device works?
No. The Detex Advantex 10EXxW is built for wide stile doors, so it will not land on a narrow storefront stile. For narrow stile aluminum, the Adams Rite 8800 Series 30 inch is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch thick, the Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors that accepts trim, and the Falcon 19-R-EO is a Grade 1 narrow stile exit only rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors. Adams Rite 8700 Series is the narrow stile Grade 1 option that is also rated for wood doors.
6) What is the closest wide stile Grade 1 rim exit device to the Detex Advantex 10EXxW with request to exit signaling built in?
The Sargent 12-8810-LTRIM is the nearest match on that combination: it is a wide stile rim exit device carrying a Grade 1 rating with RX signaling, and unlike the Detex 10EXxW it is fire rated. The Detex 10EXxW is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device with an integrated EX request to exit switch for access control tie-in, built weatherized over stainless steel with PVD finish. If the RX contact is the reason for the specification, those are the two wide stile Grade 1 devices that carry it as part of the device rather than as a separate add-on.
7) I need an exit device on an exterior door but the opening is fire rated. What should I use instead of the Detex 10EXxW?
The Detex Advantex 10EXxW is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device and the weatherized version of the Advantex 10 Series. For a fire rated opening, the Sargent 12-8810-LTRIM is a fire rated wide stile Grade 1 rim device that also carries RX signaling. Without the signaling requirement, the Dexter ED1000-R-F-EO is a fire rated Grade 1 rim exit device, and the Adams Rite 3700 Series 30 inch is a fire rated Grade 1 rim device for narrow stile aluminum doors. Fire rated devices do not permit dogging, so confirm the opening actually requires a labeled device before switching.
8) Is the SDC S6136 electrified rim device an alternative to the Detex Advantex 10EXxW?
They serve different control schemes. The SDC S6136 Spectra is a 36 inch electrified architectural rim exit device for 4 inch wide stiles and doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch thick, where the electrification controls the outside trim. The Detex Advantex 10EXxW is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device whose EX switch signals request to exit to the access control system rather than powering the latch. If the panel needs an exit signal, the Detex is the direct fit; if the requirement is electrified remote release of outside trim, the SDC S6136 or the Dormakaba E2103 electrified 36 inch rim device with 4908A classroom trim addresses that instead.
9) If the pair of doors has no mullion, is the Detex 10EXxW still the right device?
The Detex Advantex 10EXxW is a rim device intended for single and double doors with mullions, since a rim latch needs a strike to catch. On a pair without a mullion, a vertical rod device is the usual answer: 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 concealed vertical rod version for narrow stile. Dormakaba QED200 is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow device supplied with a 7 foot rod.
10) Is the Detex Advantex 10EXxW handed? Do I need to specify left or right?
No handing to specify. The 10EXxW is non-handed and field sizeable, so one device covers either swing and can be cut to the door width on site. That is useful if you are stocking spares across a building with different door widths.
11) Is this Detex exit device Grade 1, and how does its cycle testing compare?
Grade 1, and Detex states the Advantex is tested beyond 1,000,000 cycles, which is twice the cycling required for Grade 1 UL testing. For a high-traffic opening, a school corridor exterior, a hospital service door, that extra cycle life is the argument for it over a Grade 2 device like the Cal-Royal 5000 or 5500.
12) What other wide stile rim devices could I use instead of the Detex 10EXxW?
Several wide stile Grade 1 rim devices sit in the same slot: the Von Duprin 22 Series pushpad device, the Corbin Russwin ED5200, the DORMA 9300 Series, and the TownSteel ED1100 or ED9700. What none of those are listed as is weatherized, so if the opening is exposed to the elements the Detex is doing something they are not. For a wide stile opening that needs built-in electrification, the SDC S6136 Spectra is an electrified architectural rim device with a 4 inch wide stile.
13) I already have an access-controlled opening with a Sargent RX device. Is the Detex 10EXxW an equivalent swap?
Functionally they cover the same ground in that both are wide stile rim devices with a request-to-exit signal, the Sargent 12-8810 being the 8800 Series wide stile rim device with RX and MELR. They are different manufacturers with different door preps though, so treat it as a new install and use the Detex door prep template rather than assuming the existing holes line up. Note also that the Sargent 12-8810 is fire rated, which is a spec you need to match if the opening is a fire door.
14) What is a straightforward wide stile Grade 1 rim exit device if I do not need the request to exit switch or the weatherized build?
Several wide stile Grade 1 rim devices cover a plain mechanical opening. The Von Duprin 22-3FT is a 36 inch non-handed wide stile pushpad rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Corbin Russwin ED5200 is a 36 inch wide stile Grade 1 rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors that accepts trim, and the TownSteel ED9700 is a 36 inch heavy duty wide stile Grade 1 rim device. The Detex Advantex 10EXxW carries the integrated EX signaling switch and weatherized stainless construction that those mechanical-only devices do not.
15) Can I use a pressure sense or switch bar like the SDC PSB560 in place of the Detex 10EXxW?
Not as a like-for-like swap. The SDC SureExit PSB560 is a 36 inch pressure sense bar and the SDC MSB550 is a 36 inch mechanical switch bar with electromagnetic lock release; both fit narrow or wide stiles but release a maglock rather than throwing their own latch. The Detex Advantex 10EXxW is a Grade 1 rim exit device with its own stainless deadlocking Pullman latch bolt plus an EX signaling switch, so it both latches the door and reports the exit. Use a switch bar only where a separate electromagnetic lock is securing the opening.
16) What wide stile rim device should I look at if the opening needs a crossbar or paddle rather than a pushpad?
The Detex Advantex 10EXxW is a wide stile rim device with a touchpad-style Advantex chassis. Where a crossbar style is wanted, the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a 48 inch Grade 1 wide stile crossbar rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Sargent 3828 is a Grade 1 reversible standard push bar rim device for 48 inch doors, and the CRL Jackson 1095 is a 48 inch wide stile crossbar rim panic device. For a paddle actuator, the CRL Jackson 1095P is the wide stile paddle version.
17) Is a Grade 2 device like the Cal-Royal 5000 comparable to the Detex Advantex 10EXxW?
They sit at different certification levels. The Cal-Royal 5000 is a 36 inch heavy duty wide rim exit device with a Grade 2 chassis and the Cal-Royal 5500 is the 48 inch push bar version, also Grade 2. The Detex Advantex 10EXxW carries a Grade 1 rating and is tested beyond 1,000,000 cycles, twice the cycling required for Grade 1 UL testing. If a project specification or facility standard calls out ANSI/BHMA Grade 1, the Cal-Royal 5000 and 5500 will not satisfy it.
18) I need a nightlatch or trim function rather than exit only. What are my options alongside the Detex 10EXxW?
Many rim devices in this class are exit only, meaning no outside operation. The Sargent 8504 is a Grade 1 narrow design rim device in nightlatch function, and the Corbin Russwin ED5200 is a Grade 1 wide stile device for 1-3/4 inch doors that accepts trim. The Dormakaba E2103 36 inch electrified rim device ships with 4908A trim in classroom function. Specify the outside function before selecting, since an exit only chassis cannot be converted by adding a lever.
19) How hard is the Detex Advantex to install accurately on a metal door?
Detex uses a patented mounting plate and strike locator system on the Advantex, which sets the strike position off the device rather than by measuring, and that is the part installers usually get wrong on rim hardware. Detex publishes an installation instruction sheet, a parts list, and door prep templates for the 10 Series; work from the template for the hole layout and do the final latch alignment after the device is mounted.
20) Is the Detex 10EXxW exit-only, or can I add outside trim?
The device itself is the panic hardware, the inside half of the opening. Outside operation, whether that's a key cylinder pull, a lever, or nothing at all, is a separate trim selection ordered with the device, so decide on the outside function before you place the order. If you want an opening that is genuinely exit-only with no outside operation, that is the simpler order and several peers, like the Corbin Russwin ED2200 and the Marks USA M9900, are sold in exit-only form.
21) Is the Detex 10EXxW suitable for a commercial building or is it residential hardware?
Commercial. The Advantex 10 Series is rated for commercial use and gets specified on office buildings, schools, healthcare, retail, warehouses, multi-tenant residential, and government buildings. It is panic hardware, so it belongs on egress openings where code calls for exit devices, not on a house door.
