Detex V4001PNxNS-628-36 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a Detex V40xNS rim exit device fit a 2 inch narrow stile aluminum storefront door?
Yes, that's exactly what the V40xNS is built for. The rail is extended in length so it spans the stiles on 2 inch narrow stile doors, and it covers a 161 door prep. It is a commercial device and it is not rated for wood doors, so keep it on aluminum or hollow metal openings.
2) Do I have to specify handing when I order the Detex V40xNS?
The device itself is non-handed and field sizeable, but the order still asks for a hand: Right Hand Reverse or Left Hand Reverse. Those are the two options on exit devices, since a panic door always swings out. Pick based on which side the hinges are on as you stand outside the door.
3) What dogging choices are there on the V40xNS, and can I use dogging on a fire door?
Three dogging choices: hex key dogging, cylinder dogging, or less/no dogging. Standard hex dogging is a 1/8 turn. If you're ordering the fire rated version, mechanical dogging isn't permitted on a fire door, so order it less dogging, or use the electric dogging option where the release is tied to the fire alarm.
4) Is the Detex V40xNS available fire rated, and what sizes?
Both fire rated and non-rated builds are offered, each in a 36 inch and a 48 inch device. Order the fire rated build for a labeled opening and the non-rated build where the door is panic only.
5) Will the V40xNS work on a pair of doors?
Yes, on single doors and on pairs that have a mullion. Being a rim device, it latches into a strike at the jamb or mullion, so a pair with no center mullion needs a different approach, typically a vertical rod device on each leaf. For a pair, plan on a removable mullion plus a rim device on each leaf.
6) Will the 3/4 inch latch bolt engage my existing rim strike?
The latch is a stainless steel 3/4 inch deadlocking Pullman type bolt. A standard rim strike sized for a 3/4 inch Pullman latch will take it, and the patented strike locator supplied with the device sets the strike position accurately instead of relying on a paper template.
7) What electrified options can I get on the Detex V40xNS?
Four, on top of the plain mechanical build: hardwired electric alarm, electric dogging, delayed egress, and a request to exit signal switch. Delayed egress is the one to specify when you want a 15 second hold on egress, and the RX switch is what an integrator ties into an access control panel to signal a legal exit.
8) I need a narrow stile rim device on a wood door - what should I use instead of the Detex V40xNS?
The Detex V40xNS Series is not wood door compatible. For a wood door, the Adams Rite narrow stile rim devices are the ones to look at: the 3700 Series 30 inch is Grade 1, fire rated and wood door compatible, and the 8700 Series 30 inch is Grade 1, non-rated and wood door compatible. Both use Adams Rite starwheel interlocking construction.
9) What is the closest narrow stile Grade 1 rim exit device to the Detex V40xNS if I need a different brand on the same aluminum storefront?
The Detex V40xNS Series is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device that is not wood door compatible. Direct narrow stile Grade 1 alternatives include the Corbin Russwin ED4200, a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors that is exit only and accepts trim; the TownSteel ED3700, a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim device in 36 inch; and the Falcon 19-R, a Grade 1 narrow stile exit only device for 1-3/4 inch doors. All three are narrow stile and, like the V40xNS, not rated for wood doors.
10) Is a wide stile rim device like the Von Duprin 22 a substitute for the Detex V40xNS?
No. The Detex V40xNS Series is built with an extended length rail to span the stile on 2 inch narrow stile doors. The Von Duprin 22-3FT is a wide stile pushpad rim device, Grade 1, 36 inch, non-handed, for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Corbin Russwin ED5200 is likewise a Grade 1 wide stile rim device. Wide stile chassis need the broader stile face a narrow stile aluminum storefront door does not provide, so they are not a drop-in for the V40xNS opening.
11) How much force will this panic device take, and is it Grade 1?
Grade 1 construction, and it withstands over 1,400 pounds of static pull force. The rail is heavy duty ribbed aluminum extrusion with high impact ABS and anodized surfaces. That is the number to quote when a spec calls for pull resistance on a storefront exit.
12) Can I add outside trim or a cylinder later without pulling the device off the door?
Yes. The V40xNS uses a modular trim design that accepts a variety of outside trims and functions, and trim changes or rekeying can be done without removing the device from the door. For a locksmith rekeying a storefront on a route, that's the difference between a five minute stop and a full teardown.
13) My door has a 4 inch stile, do I need a narrow stile device like this one?
No, a wide stile device is the better fit on a 4 inch stile and usually gives you a larger push pad. Options include the Von Duprin 22 Series (Grade 1, non-handed, 1-3/4 inch doors), the Corbin Russwin ED5200 (Grade 1, accepts trim), or the BEST Precision 2101 at 36 inch. Keep the V40xNS for the 2 inch narrow stile storefront openings it was extended to cover.
14) The Detex V40xNS offers delayed egress and request to exit - what other exit bars handle electrified egress control?
The Detex V40xNS Series can be ordered with hardwired electric alarm, electric dogging, delayed egress, or a request to exit signal switch. Other electrified egress hardware includes the SDC MSB550 Series 36 inch mechanical switch bar with electromagnetic lock release, the SDC SureExit PSB560 Series 36 inch pressure sense bar with tri-failsafe technology, and the Securitron EMB electromechanical exit bar for 2-1/4 inch doors. The two SDC bars are listed for narrow or wide stile doors.
15) Is a concealed vertical rod device like the Hager 4601 an alternative to the Detex V40xNS?
They solve different openings. The Detex V40xNS Series is a rim device whose 3/4 inch deadlocking Pullman latch throws into a surface strike, covering a 161 door prep. The Hager 4601 Series 36 inch is a Grade 1 narrow stile concealed vertical rod exit device, which latches top and bottom through rods concealed in the door and requires a door prepared for that rod assembly. Choose the rim device when the frame accepts a surface strike.
16) What finishes does the Detex V40xNS come in?
Two anodized aluminum finishes: 628 brushed aluminum and 711 black aluminum. Both are offered in the 36 inch and 48 inch lengths and across the fire rated and non-rated builds, so a property standardizing on dark storefront can match without giving up the rating.
17) Is installation on the V40xNS template based, and where do I get the door prep?
Detex supplies a patented mounting plate and strike locator that replaces paper templates, which is the main reason this device goes on fast and lands the strike right the first time. Door prep requirements are minimal since it covers a 161 prep. Detex publishes installation instructions and a parts list as PDFs for the Value Series V40.
18) Is the Detex Value Series V40 heavy duty enough for a school or hospital exit?
It's built for commercial use at Grade 1, with a ribbed aluminum rail extrusion and over 1,400 pounds of static pull resistance, and Detex positions the V40 as the Value Series, meaning Grade 1 performance at a lower price point than their premium lines. Common placements are offices, schools, healthcare, retail, warehouses, multi-tenant residential, and municipal buildings.
19) Are there Grade 2 rim exit devices I should consider instead of the Grade 1 Detex V40xNS?
The Detex V40xNS Series is Grade 1 and narrow stile. Cal-Royal offers Grade 2 heavy duty rim devices including the 5000 36 inch with a touch bar and the 5500 48 inch with a push bar, both non-rated and not wood door compatible. Those are wide rim devices rather than narrow stile, so they suit hollow metal or wide stile leaves rather than a 2 inch stile storefront door.
20) Which narrow stile devices besides the Detex V40xNS come with hex key dogging?
The Detex V40xNS Series uses 1/8 turn hex key dogging and can also be ordered with cylinder dogging or less dogging. Among peers, the Stanley Security QED200 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim device with hex key dogging, and the Dormakaba QED200 is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow exit device supplied as a 36 inch device with a 7 foot rod. The Design Hardware 1000R 33 inch heavy duty rim device also uses hex key dogging.
