Built to withstand heavy use and abuse, this right-handed reverse (RHR) configuration ensures long-term durability in high-traffic commercial environments.

Detex DTX-02-DM-S-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Detex dummy lever trim actually retract the latch, or is it a pull only?
It is a pull only. The S lever trim is ANSI Function 02 dummy trim, meaning the lever does not retract a latch at all. Entry through the door is possible only when the exit device's actuating bar is dogged down, holding the latch retracted. If you need the lever to operate the latch from the outside with a key, dummy trim is the wrong choice.
2) Which Detex exit devices does this S lever escutcheon trim fit?
Two device families, and you pick one when you order. One version mounts to Detex Advantex 30 Series mortise body exit devices; the other fits wide strike rim and surface vertical rod devices in the 10, 20, 21 and 27 Series. They are not interchangeable, so match the trim to the device already on the door.
3) How big is the escutcheon plate on the Detex S lever dummy trim, and will it fit a narrow stile door?
The escutcheon measures 9-1/16 by 2-3/4 inches. That 2-3/4 inch width needs a stile wide enough to take it, so on aluminum storefront doors with narrow stiles it will typically overhang. It is sized for wide stile hollow metal and wood doors.
4) Is the Detex dummy lever trim handed?
Handing applies. The S lever trim is supplied in a right hand reverse (RHR) configuration, so confirm the swing and hand of your opening before ordering.
5) I need a complete vertical rod exit device, not just a lever plate - what should I be ordering instead of the Detex S lever dummy trim?
The Detex dummy lever trim is the outside lever and escutcheon only, an ANSI Function 02 dummy that does not retract a latch, so it cannot secure or release an opening on its own. If you need the actual panic hardware, complete surface vertical rod devices include the Von Duprin 8827-3FT, a Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod device sized for a 3 ft door and listed for 1-3/4 inch door thickness, and the Imperial USA ED-VR531, a Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod device for a 36 inch door. Order the device for the opening, then the trim separately.
6) The opening is fire rated - can I use the Detex S lever dummy trim there, or do I need different hardware?
Dummy trim is a non-latching pull, so the fire rating question belongs to the device on the door, not the lever. For fire rated vertical rod openings the comparable devices carry the rating in the model: the Delaney F9100 Series is Grade 1 and fire rated for a 36 by 84 inch door, and the Marks USA M9900FVR 36 by 84 and MARM9900F-VR 48 by 84 are fire rated exit-only vertical rod devices. Fire doors also generally cannot be dogged, which is worth confirming since Function 02 dummy trim allows entrance by trim only when the actuating bar is dogged.
7) What happens if someone yanks or kicks the lever on this Detex trim?
The lever is a break-away design. Forced past the locking point, it drops down rather than snapping or wrecking the trim, and an internal disengaging clutch lets you reset it by pulling the lever back to its original position. That matters on school corridors, transit lobbies and any opening that takes abuse, because a reset takes seconds instead of a service call.
8) Do I have to pull the exit device off the door to replace the lever trim?
No. The trim works with the device mounting plate so it can be swapped without taking the exit device off the door. On an occupied building that keeps the opening secure while you change out a damaged lever.
9) I need a whole vertical rod exit device, not just trim. What are my options?
This Detex item is trim only, an S lever on an escutcheon that mounts to an existing device. For a complete surface vertical rod device, the Von Duprin 8827-3FT is a wide stile Grade 1 unit for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Imperial USA ED-VR531 is a Grade 1 wide stile exit-only device for 36 inch doors, and the Marks USA M9900VR covers 36 by 84 inch openings non-handed. If the opening is fire rated, look at the Delaney F9100 Series or the Marks USA M9900FVR instead, both of which are fire rated.
10) If I put an exit-only device on the door, do I still need the Detex dummy lever trim?
Not for function - exit-only devices have no outside operating trim by design. The Marks USA M9900VR 36 by 84 and M9900VR-48X84 vertical rod devices and the Cal-Royal 9860 surface vertical rod device are listed as exit only, as is the Imperial USA ED-VR531. Dummy trim like the Detex S lever on the 9-1/16 by 2-3/4 inch escutcheon is added when you want a lever to pull on from the outside and a finished look on the face of the door, not to operate the latch.
11) Is a Grade 2 device enough for my vertical rod opening, or should I stay Grade 1?
Among the comparable surface vertical rod devices, the Cal-Royal 9860 is Grade 2 heavy duty and non-fire-rated, while the Von Duprin 8827-3FT, Imperial USA ED-VR531, Delaney 8100 Series and Delaney 9100 Series are Grade 1. Grade 1 is the cycle and strength tier usually written into institutional and government specifications; Grade 2 is the lighter commercial tier. If your drawing calls out a grade, match it, since the Detex dummy trim itself adds no latching duty either way.
12) What finishes does the Detex S lever trim come in?
Three: 626 satin chrome, 693 black painted, and 695 dark bronze. All three are offered for both the 30 Series mortise body version and the wide strike rim/SVR version, so you can match trim across mixed device types in the same building.
13) Is there an option for healthcare or food service openings?
An anti-microbial coating is offered on all of the levers, which is the usual ask for patient corridors, clinics and kitchens. Everything else about the trim stays the same.
