Detex V4002ANxNS-628-36 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Dummy Pull Trim function on the Detex V4002ANxNS actually do?
Dummy pull trim means the outside trim is a fixed pull with no key and no latch retraction. From outside the door is always locked; you pull the door open only when the device has been dogged down or the door is pushed from the egress side. If you need key access from outside, order a keyed outside trim function instead. The V40 chassis is modular and accepts a range of outside trims, and trims can be changed or rekeyed later without pulling the device off the door.
2) Can the Detex V40xNS be used on a pair of doors?
Yes, on single doors and on pairs that have a mullion. It's a rim device, so the Pullman latch throws into a strike on the frame or mullion, not into the head and threshold. A pair with no mullion needs vertical rod hardware instead, or a removable mullion added between the leaves.
3) Do I have to specify handing when ordering a Detex V40 narrow stile exit device?
Yes. Handing is a required selection, either right hand reverse or left hand reverse. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your right and the door swings toward you, it's right hand reverse. Get it wrong and the latch faces the wrong way.
4) Which dogging option should I pick on the Detex V40 exit device, and can I dog a fire rated one?
Three choices: hex dogging, cylinder dogging, or less/no dogging. Hex key dogging is the common pick for interior traffic doors where you want the latch held retracted during business hours. Cylinder dogging locks that function behind a key so tenants or staff cannot dog the door at will, which is what most property managers want on a shared entry. Fire rated openings must be ordered less dogging, since mechanical dogging is not permitted on a fire door. Electric dogging is also available as a separate electrified option if you want to dog the device from an access control system.
5) Is there a fire rated version of the Detex V40xNS, and what sizes does it come in?
Both fire rated and non-rated versions are built, in 36 inch and 48 inch device lengths, and both are offered in 628 brushed aluminum and 711 black aluminum. Use the 36 inch on a standard 3'0 leaf and the 48 inch on wider openings. Pick the rated version for any labeled opening and pair it with less dogging.
6) Will the Detex V40 cover the door prep left by the device I am replacing?
It covers a standard 161 door prep and the rail is field sizeable, which is why it works well as a retrofit on existing aluminum storefront. Detex also supplies a mounting plate and strike locator instead of a paper template, so hole locations transfer accurately. Installation instructions and the parts list are published for the V40 series if you want to check hole centers against your existing prep before you cut anything.
7) What is a direct alternative to the Detex V40xNS narrow stile rim exit device from another manufacturer?
The Detex V40xNS is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device for aluminum doors, and it is not rated for wood doors. Close narrow stile Grade 1 alternatives include the Corbin Russwin ED4200, a 36 inch narrow stile rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors that accepts trim, the TownSteel ED3700 36 inch Grade 1 narrow stile rim device, and the Falcon 19-R 36 inch narrow stile exit-only device for 1-3/4 inch doors. All three are also listed as not wood door compatible.
8) The opening has a wide stile aluminum door, not a 2 inch narrow stile. What should be ordered instead of the V40xNS?
The V40xNS is built with extended length to span 2 inch narrow stiles, so a wide stile device is the better fit on a wide stile door. Grade 1 wide stile rim options include the Von Duprin 22 Series 36 inch non-handed pushpad device for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Corbin Russwin ED5200 36 inch rim device that accepts trim, and the TownSteel ED9700 36 inch heavy duty Grade 1 rim device.
9) Is there a narrow stile alternative to the V40xNS with a keyed nightlatch instead of dummy pull trim?
The Detex V40xNS build is supplied with dummy pull trim, which gives an outside pull with no key entry. For keyed outside entry on a narrow design door, the Sargent 8504 is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device with a nightlatch function. The Corbin Russwin ED4200 narrow stile device is also listed as accepting trim if a different outside function is needed.
10) Which electrified options can I get on the Detex V40 narrow stile rim device?
Four electrified builds beyond the plain mechanical device: hardwired electric alarm, electric dogging, delayed egress, and a request-to-exit signal switch. RX is what you use to shunt an alarm or tell the access control panel someone pushed out. Delayed egress is the 15 second hold used on retail and memory care exits where the AHJ permits it. Electric alarm is the local horn on the device for unauthorized exits. All four are available on both the 36 inch and 48 inch lengths and in both finishes.
11) How much force will the Detex V40 exit device take, and what is the latch like?
The device is rated to withstand over 1,400 pounds of static pull force, and it latches with a stainless steel 3/4 inch deadlocking Pullman-type latch bolt. The deadlocking feature resists the latch being shimmed or pried back once the door closes. It carries a Grade 1 rating, which is the top ANSI/BHMA performance level for panic hardware.
12) For a 48 inch wide door, what alternatives to the 48 inch Detex V40xNS are available?
The Detex V40xNS is offered in a 48 inch length. Other 48 inch rim devices include the Dexter ED1000 4FT Grade 1 rim device, the Marks USA M9900F 48 inch fire rated rim device, the Corbin Russwin ED3200 48 inch Grade 1 crossbar wide stile device, and the DORMA 9300 48 inch wide stile Grade 1 device rated for 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch doors. Of these, only the Detex covers a 2 inch narrow stile.
13) Is the Adams Rite 8800 Series a drop-in substitute for the Detex V40xNS?
They are both Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit devices for non-wood doors, but they are not the same part. The Adams Rite 8800 Series 30 inch device lists a door thickness range of 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inches and is not fire rated, while the Detex V40xNS comes in 36 inch and 48 inch lengths and in both fire rated and non-rated builds. Door prep and strike differ between the two, so verify prep before substituting.
14) What looks like a substitute for the V40xNS narrow stile exit device but is not a panic rim device?
Two items sit in the same aisle and do a different job. The SDC MSB550 Series 36 inch is a mechanical switch bar with electromagnetic lock release, and the SDC PSB560 Series 36 inch is a pressure sense bar with tri-failsafe technology; both suit narrow or wide stile doors but release an electromagnetic lock rather than operating a latch bolt. The Detex V40xNS is a mechanical rim device with a stainless steel 3/4 inch deadlocking Pullman latch bolt.
15) Which narrow stile rim devices compare to the V40xNS when the device needs to be non-handed?
The Detex V40xNS is ordered by handing, right hand reverse or left hand reverse. If a non-handed device simplifies stocking, the BEST 2401 Series is a non-handed narrow stile rim exit device for non-wood doors, and the BEST Precision 5101 Series is a non-handed universal design rim device. Both are exit-only style bodies rather than dummy pull trim builds.
16) Is the Detex V40 a heavy duty device or a budget line?
It sits in Detex's Value Series, which is the economical end of their range, but it still carries a Grade 1 rating and is built with a ribbed aluminum rail extrusion, high impact ABS, and anodized surfaces. For standardizing across a building with a lot of storefront doors, that combination is the appeal: Grade 1 performance on narrow stile leaves without specifying an architectural series.
17) What are the Grade 2 alternatives to the Detex V40xNS rim exit device?
The Detex V40xNS is a Grade 1 device. If the spec allows a Grade 2 chassis, the Cal-Royal 5000 36 inch rim device with touch bar and the Cal-Royal 5500 48 inch rim device with push bar are both Grade 2 heavy duty and non-fire-rated, for non-wood doors. Neither is listed as a narrow stile device, so confirm stile width on the door before ordering.
