Detex DTX-10W-36-CY-1 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a Detex Advantex 10W exit device work on an exterior gate or a door exposed to driving rain and salt air?
That is exactly what the 10W is built for. The Advantex 10W is the weatherized version of the 10 Series rim device, with components resistant to temperature extremes, dust, driving rain and salt fog, and all exposed surfaces finished over stainless steel with a PVD coating. The latch is a deadlocking Pullman type in stainless. Coastal openings, unconditioned stair towers, pool and courtyard gates, loading dock doors: those are the applications where a standard interior-rated rim device corrodes and starts dragging. Detex covers single doors, double doors and gates with mullions on this device.
2) Which dogging option should I specify on a Detex 10W, cylinder or hex key?
Three choices: cylinder dogging, hex dogging, or less dogging. Hex key dogging is the maintenance standard, cheapest to hold down the pad for daytime free entry, but anyone with a common hex wrench can do it. Cylinder dogging puts that under a keyed cylinder, which is what you want on an exterior or gate opening where the public can reach the device. Less dogging means the pad cannot be held down at all, which is what you order for fire-rated openings, since dogging is not permitted on a fire door.
3) I need panic hardware on a pair of exterior doors. Does a rim device like the Detex 10W work, or do I need vertical rods?
A rim device latches into a strike on the frame, so on a pair it needs a mullion between the leaves. Detex builds the 10W for single doors, double doors and gates with mullions, so a removable or fixed mullion pair is a supported application. If you cannot have a mullion (you need the full clear opening for equipment or gurneys), a rim device is the wrong choice and you want a vertical rod device instead, which latches at the head and threshold. The Hager 4501 Series is a Grade 1 concealed vertical rod device with a wide stile pushpad if that is the direction you go.
4) Our aluminum storefront door has a narrow stile - can we use the Detex Advantex 10W or do we need a different device?
The Detex Advantex 10W is built for wide stile doors and gates, so a narrow stile aluminum storefront needs a narrow stile device. The Adams Rite 8800 Series 30 inch rim exit device is narrow stile, Grade 1, and fits doors 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inches thick. The Falcon 19-R Series 36 inch is narrow stile, Grade 1, exit only, for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a narrow stile Grade 1 36 inch rim device that accepts trim. Stile width is a hard dimensional fit, not a preference - measure the lock stile before ordering either family.
5) What is the closest wide stile Grade 1 rim exit device to the Detex Advantex 10W for an interior opening that does not face weather?
The Von Duprin 22 Series 22-3FT is a wide stile pushpad rim exit device, Grade 1, 36 inches, non-handed, for 1-3/4 inch doors. Like the Detex 10W it is a wide stile rim device carrying a Grade 1 rating, and it is not rated for wood doors. The Detex 10W is the weatherized build, with components engineered for temperature extremes, dust, driving rain and salt fog, so the Von Duprin 22 covers a dry interior opening while the 10W is the one specified where the door is exposed. The 10W also comes in a 48 inch size for wider door leaves.
6) The opening needs a fire rated wide stile rim exit device instead of a weatherized one - what takes that spec?
The Sargent 12-8810-LTRIM is a fire rated wide stile rim exit device, Grade 1, 8800 Series, supplied with RX and MELR and lever trim, for non-wood doors. Fire rated exit devices do not dog, which is the practical difference against a Detex Advantex 10W ordered with cylinder dogging or hex dogging. The Marks USA M9900F is another fire rated rim device, exit only with a panic protector end cap, in 36 inch and 48 inch sizes matching the two lengths the 10W is built in.
7) Do electrified exit bars like the SDC SureExit PSB560 or Securitron EMB replace a Detex Advantex 10W?
They do not do the same job. The SDC PSB560 Series 36 inch is a pressure sense bar with tri-failsafe technology and the SDC MSB550 Series 36 inch is a mechanical switch bar with electromagnetic lock release - both fit narrow or wide stile doors and signal or release a separate locking device rather than carrying a latch of their own. The Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar for 2-1/4 inch doors. The Detex Advantex 10W is a mechanical rim exit device with a deadlocking Pullman-type stainless steel latch bolt that latches into a strike on the frame. If the opening is held by a maglock, a switch bar is the release; if the door has to latch itself, it needs a rim device.
8) How does the Detex Advantex 10W hold up in high traffic compared to other Grade 1 rim devices?
The 10W is tested beyond 1,000,000 cycles, which Detex states is twice the cycling required for Grade 1 UL testing, and it carries a Grade 1 rating. Plenty of the rim devices on the market are Grade 1 (the Von Duprin 22 Series, Corbin Russwin ED5200 and TownSteel ED9700 all are), but the doubled cycle count plus the stainless and PVD construction is what separates the 10W in an entry that sees constant use or weather. The angled end cap is also built to deflect impact away from the device, which matters at a dock or service door where carts hit hardware.
9) Can I use the Detex Advantex 10W on a fire-rated exit door?
Detex builds the Advantex 10 Series as panic and fire exit hardware, and the 10W is offered in a less dogging configuration, which is the version that belongs on a fire door. Order the less dogging option for any fire-rated opening and confirm the specific fire label on the device you receive matches your opening requirement. If you want a rim device we hold with fire rating already on record, the Marks USA M9900F is offered in 36 inch and 48 inch, and the Orca OED85 Series and Dexter ED1000 fire-rated rim device are the other fire-rated rim options.
10) What makes installing a Detex Advantex 10W different from a standard rim exit device?
Detex uses a patented mounting plate and strike locator on the Advantex, which sets the device and the frame strike in correct relation to each other instead of relying on you to transfer marks by eye. That is the single biggest source of callbacks on rim hardware: a strike that is off by a sixteenth and a latch that never fully deadlocks. Door prep templates, installation instructions, a parts list and installation video are all published by Detex for the 10 Series, including a separate video for the gate plate install.
11) Is the Detex 10W handed? Do I need to specify left or right hand?
Handing is not an option on the order for the Advantex 10W. The two things you specify are device length, 36 inch or 48 inch, and dogging, cylinder, hex or less. Match the length to the door leaf width and pick dogging based on whether the opening is fire rated and whether the public can reach the device.
12) Can the Detex Advantex 10W go on a wood door, and what wide stile alternatives handle wood?
The Detex Advantex 10W is not wood door compatible. Among rim exit devices, the Adams Rite 8700 Series 30 inch is wood door compatible, Grade 1, narrow stile, and the Adams Rite 3700 Series 30 inch is wood door compatible, Grade 1, narrow stile and fire rated. Both use starwheel interlocking. Note those are narrow stile devices, so the door stile has to suit them - they are not a drop-in for a wide stile prep.
13) Is there a lighter duty wide stile rim exit device than the Detex Advantex 10W for a low traffic door?
The Cal-Royal 5000 is a 36 inch wide rim exit device with a touch bar and a Grade 2 chassis, and the Cal-Royal 5500 is the 48 inch push bar version, also Grade 2; both are heavy duty and neither is fire rated or rated for wood doors. The Design Hardware 2000R is a 33 inch standard duty wide stile rim device with hex key dogging. The Detex Advantex 10W is Grade 1 and tested beyond 1,000,000 cycles, twice the cycling required for Grade 1 UL testing, with stainless steel construction and PVD coated exposed surfaces. Match the ANSI grade to what the door schedule calls for.
14) We standardize on one wide stile Grade 1 rim device across a campus - what else besides the Detex Advantex 10W covers 36 inch and 48 inch leaves?
The Detex Advantex 10W is Grade 1 wide stile and comes in 36 inch and 48 inch. For the same span across a mix of openings, the Dormakaba DORMA 9300 Series is a 48 inch wide stile Grade 1 heavy duty rim device for doors 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inches thick and the DORMA 8300 Series is the wide stile Grade 1 rim panic device in the same family. Sargent 2828 and 3828 are Grade 1 reversible wide stile rim devices for 48 inch minimum door width, the 3828 with a standard push bar. Corbin Russwin ED2200 covers a 36 inch wide stile Grade 1 exit only opening. Of these, the 10W is the weatherized build for openings exposed to driving rain and salt fog.
15) Is a concealed vertical rod exit device an alternative to the Detex Advantex 10W on a pair of doors?
They latch differently. The Hager 4501 Series 36 inch is a Grade 1 concealed vertical rod exit device with a wide stile pushpad, and the Hager 4601 Series 36 inch is the narrow stile concealed vertical rod version, both Grade 1. A concealed vertical rod device latches into the head and sill through rods inside the door, so the door itself must be prepped for them. The Detex Advantex 10W is a rim device that latches into a surface strike, and on pairs it is the device used with a mullion. If the pair has no mullion, a rim device will not work on both leaves.
16) Which wide stile rim exit devices besides the Detex Advantex 10W come with hex key dogging?
The Design Hardware 1000R is a 33 inch heavy duty rim device with hex key dogging and the Design Hardware 2000R is the 33 inch standard duty wide stile version, also with hex key dogging. The Stanley Security QED200 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim device with hex-key dogging. The Detex Advantex 10W is ordered in three dogging configurations - cylinder dogging, hex dogging, or less dogging - in both 36 inch and 48 inch. Specify less dogging where the authority having jurisdiction does not permit the latch to be held retracted.
17) What Grade 1 rim exit device works for a 36 inch opening when the Detex Advantex 10W weatherized build is more than the job needs?
The TownSteel ED1100 is a 36 inch heavy duty Grade 1 wide stile panic rim exit device, not fire rated, for non-wood doors, and the TownSteel ED9700 is a 36 inch heavy duty Grade 1 wide stile rim device. The Imperial USA ED-501 is a 36 inch Grade 1 wide stile rim panic device, exit only. The Hager 4701 Series 36 inch is a standard duty rim exit device with Grade 1 BHMA certification. All carry the same Grade 1 rating the Detex Advantex 10W carries; the 10W adds the weatherized construction and PVD coating over stainless steel for exposed openings.
18) The Detex Advantex 10W is exit only hardware - what rim device should I look at if I need a keyed nightlatch function from outside?
The Sargent 8504 is a nightlatch function rim exit device in the 8500 Series, Grade 1, narrow design. The Corbin Russwin ED5200 is a Grade 1 36 inch wide stile rim device whose function is exit only and accepts trim, and the ED4200 is the narrow stile Grade 1 equivalent that also accepts trim - trim is what adds outside key or lever access on those. Confirm the cylinder and keyway against the rest of the building's keying before ordering any of them.
