Detex 40 628 HD 99 36 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I get a Detex 40 Series exit device with electric latch retraction or delayed egress?
Yes. The 36-inch Advantex 40 can be ordered with no electrical option, EA hardwired electric alarm, EX request-to-exit signal switch, EE delayed egress, or ER EX electric latch retraction with a request-to-exit switch. Delayed egress and latch retraction both need power run to the door, so plan a power transfer and supply with the order.
2) The Detex Advantex 40 Series is not fire rated - what rim device should I use on a fire-rated opening instead?
Use a listed fire exit device. The Marks USA M9900F-36 is a fire rated 36-inch exit-only rim device, the Orca Hardware OED85 is a fire rated 36-inch rim device, and the Dexter ED1000-R-F-EO is a Grade 1 fire rated rim device. For a wider leaf, the Marks USA M9900F-48 is the 48-inch fire rated version. The Detex 40 Series carries no fire rating, so it belongs on panic-only openings.
3) I have a pair of doors with no mullion - is the Detex Advantex 40 Series the right device?
The Detex Advantex 40 Series is a rim device intended for single doors and for double doors with a mullion, and it uses either a 98 semi-mortise or 99 surface strike. On a pair with no mullion you need vertical rod hardware instead: the Hager 4601 is a Grade 1 36-inch narrow stile concealed vertical rod device and the Hager 4501 is the Grade 1 36-inch concealed vertical rod device with a wide stile pushpad.
4) What is the closest Grade 1 36-inch rim exit device to the Detex Advantex 40 Series from another manufacturer?
The Von Duprin 22-3FT is the nearest straight equivalent: a 36-inch non-handed Grade 1 rim exit device, not fire rated, for 1-3/4 inch doors and hollow metal or aluminum rather than wood. Corbin Russwin ED5200 is another Grade 1 36-inch rim device, and TownSteel ED9700 covers the same 36-inch Grade 1 rim slot in a heavy duty build. All three match the Detex 40 Series on the Grade 1 rating and on the 36-inch size.
5) Do I have to specify handing when ordering a Detex Advantex 40 Series exit device?
No handing needed. The Advantex 40 Series is a non-handed device, so one part number covers left and right hand openings. That makes it easier to stock as a standard across a building where door swings vary.
6) Which strike do I pick for a Detex Advantex 40 rim exit device, semi-mortise or surface?
Both are offered: the 98 semi-mortise strike and the 99 surface strike. The semi-mortise is cut into the frame for a flatter look and better protection; the 99 surface strike bolts onto the frame face and is the usual choice for retrofits where you don't want to machine the existing frame or you're mounting to a mullion.
7) Is there a hurricane-rated version of the Detex Advantex 40 Series?
Yes, hurricane rating is a yes/no choice you make when configuring the 36-inch Advantex 40. Coastal jobs working to a wind-borne debris spec should select the hurricane option; standard interior and non-coastal exterior openings take the standard build. Note the device is not weatherized.
8) Is the Detex Advantex 40 heavy duty enough for a high school or transit entrance?
It's built for that. The Advantex 40 is ANSI Grade 1, classed extra heavy duty, and Detex tests it past 1,000,000 cycles, twice the cycling required for Grade 1 UL testing. The angled end cap pushes cart and traffic impact away from the device, which is where most abuse damage starts on a school or transit door.
9) What is a comparable Grade 1 rim exit device to the Detex Advantex 40 if I need one for a 36 inch door?
Several Grade 1 36-inch rim devices sit in the same slot: the Von Duprin 22-3FT wide stile pushpad device for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Corbin Russwin ED5200 wide stile, the Corbin Russwin ED4200 narrow stile, and the TownSteel ED9700. Like the Detex 40, none of these are fire rated, and none are listed for wood doors. If you want the field-sizeable build and the mounting plate and strike locator system that replaces paper templates, that's specific to the Advantex.
10) Can the 36 inch Detex Advantex 40 be cut down for a narrower door?
Yes, the Advantex 40 is field-sizeable, so the 36-inch device can be adjusted on site rather than sent back for factory modification. That is useful on retrofit work where door widths in a building don't match. Detex publishes door prep templates and a parts list for the 40 Series so you can confirm hole locations before you cut.
11) If I only need a request-to-exit signal to an access control panel, do I need the full delayed egress Detex 40?
No. Order the EX option, which is just a request-to-exit signal switch, and wire it back to your panel. EE delayed egress is a different animal: it holds the door for the code-permitted delay before releasing, and it carries its own inspection and local code requirements. ER EX combines electric latch retraction with the request-to-exit switch when you also need the panel to pull the latch for remote or scheduled unlocking.
12) What kind of latch does the Detex Advantex 40 use, and will it hold against someone shimming the door?
It uses a stainless steel deadlocking Pullman-type latch bolt. The deadlocking feature is what resists the latch being pushed or shimmed back once the door is closed against the strike, which is the point of attack on a rim device. Pair it with the 98 semi-mortise strike if you want the strike itself less exposed on the frame.
13) My opening is a 48-inch leaf - what takes the place of the 36-inch Detex Advantex 40 Series?
The Detex Advantex 40 Series device is sized at 36 inches. For a 48-inch door, the Dexter ED1000-R-EO-4FT is a Grade 1 rim device in the 4-foot length, the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 48-inch crossbar rim device, and the Cal-Royal 5500 is a 48-inch push bar rim device. Sargent 2828 is a Grade 1 reversible rim device specified for a 48-inch minimum door width.
14) What narrow stile rim exit devices compare to the Detex Advantex 40 Series on an aluminum storefront?
Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a Grade 1 36-inch narrow stile rim device that also accepts trim, TownSteel ED3700 and ED8900 are Grade 1 heavy duty 36-inch narrow stile rim devices, and the Falcon 19-R exit-only is a Grade 1 36-inch narrow stile device for 1-3/4 inch doors. All are rim-applied like the Detex 40 Series and none of them is fire rated.
15) Is there a lighter-duty alternative to the Detex Advantex 40 Series for a low-traffic door?
Yes. The Detex Advantex 40 Series is an extra heavy duty Grade 1 device. Where a lower duty level suits the opening, the Cal-Royal 5000 is a 36-inch touch bar rim device with a Grade 2 chassis, and the Design Hardware 2000R is a standard duty 33-inch rim device with hex key dogging. Hager 4701 is a standard duty 36-inch rim device that still carries Grade 1 BHMA certification.
16) If I need an electrified exit device other than the Detex 40 Series with its EA, EX, EE or ER EX options, what else works on a 36-inch door?
The SDC S6136 Spectra is a 36-inch electrified architectural rim exit device for 4-inch wide stile and 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors, and the Dormakaba E2103 is an electrified 36-inch rim device supplied with 4908A classroom-function trim. Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar built for 2-1/4 inch doors. The Detex 40 Series handles its own electrification through the hardwired alarm, request-to-exit, delayed egress and electric latch retraction options.
17) Are the SDC MSB550 and PSB560 bars substitutes for the Detex Advantex 40 Series?
No. The SDC MSB550 is a 36-inch mechanical switch bar that releases an electromagnetic lock, and the SDC PSB560 SureExit is a 36-inch pressure sense bar with tri-failsafe technology. Both signal a separate locking device rather than carrying a latch of their own. The Detex Advantex 40 Series is a rim exit device with its own stainless steel deadlocking Pullman-type latch bolt and strike, so it latches the door itself.
18) What finishes does the Detex Advantex 40 Series come in for matching other doors in a building?
Eight BHMA finishes: 605 polished brass, 606 brushed brass, 611 polished bronze, 612 brushed bronze, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 628 brushed aluminum, 630 brushed stainless steel, and 693 black painted. All exposed surfaces are finished over stainless steel using a PVD process, which holds up better than plated finishes on high-touch exterior doors.
19) Which alternatives to the Detex Advantex 40 Series offer hex key dogging?
The Detex Advantex 40 Series is ordered with cylinder dogging, hex dogging, or less dogging. Among comparable devices, the Stanley Security QED200 is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim device with hex-key dogging, and the Design Hardware 1000R is a 33-inch heavy duty rim device with hex key dogging. Dormakaba QED200 is the Grade 1 heavy duty narrow 36-inch device in the same QED200 series.
20) What is the difference between the Detex Advantex 40 Series and a crossbar rim device like the CRL Jackson 1095?
The Detex Advantex 40 Series uses a push pad style bar with an angled end cap that deflects damage away from the device. The CRL Jackson 1095 is a 48-inch crossbar rim panic device for wide stile doors, exit only, and CRL also builds the 1095P with a paddle actuator. Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 48-inch crossbar device. Crossbar hardware is often specified where an existing crossbar look is being matched across a building.
