Detex V4002D2W-628-36 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Detex V40 rim exit device work on a wood door?
No. The V40 Series rim device is not rated for wood doors, so if you're hanging it on a wood slab you need a different device. Among wood-door-rated rim devices, the Adams Rite 3700 Series (fire rated) and 8700 Series are both narrow stile devices listed as wood door compatible. The V40 is built for metal and aluminum wide stile openings.
2) Do I have to specify handing on the Detex V4002D2W, and is the device itself handed?
The rim device body is non-handed, but you still pick a hand when ordering: right hand reverse or left hand reverse. That's for the dummy lever trim on the outside, which has to match the swing. Stand outside the door; if it swings away from you and the hinges are on the right it's right hand reverse, hinges on the left is left hand reverse.
3) What does the dummy lever on the V4002D2W actually do, and can it unlock the door from outside?
No, it can't. A dummy lever is a fixed pull, not an operating trim. There's no cylinder and no latch retraction from outside, so the V4002D2W is exit-only in practice: push the bar from inside to get out, and the door stays locked from the exterior at all times. If you need staff to key back in through the same door, order a keyed lever or nightlatch trim instead. The V40 accepts a range of outside trims, and they can be swapped or rekeyed without pulling the device off the door.
4) Can the Detex V40 rim device be used on a pair of doors?
Yes, on single doors and on pairs with a mullion. A rim device latches into a strike on the frame or on the mullion, so a pair needs a removable or fixed mullion between the leaves for the V40 to catch. If you want a clear opening with no mullion in the way, you need vertical rod devices on both leaves instead, like the Hager 4501 concealed vertical rod device.
5) Will the Detex V40 latch into the strike I already have on the frame?
It comes with its own strike, and you should use it. The V40 uses a stainless steel 3/4 inch deadlocking Pullman-type latch bolt, which needs a strike cut for that latch and for the deadlocking feature to work, so reusing an old strike from a different device is a bad bet. Order the 99 surface or 98 semi-mortise strike to suit the frame. One thing that helps on retrofit: the device covers a 161 door prep, so an existing cylindrical lock prep on the door usually disappears behind it.
6) Is the Detex V40 fire rated, and can I get it hurricane rated?
Both, but you have to specify. The V40 is ordered as fire rated, hurricane rated, hurricane and fire rated, or non-rated. On a fire door in a rated corridor you need the fire rated build, and note that fire rated exit devices cannot have mechanical dogging, so pair that with the less/no dogging option. Non-rated is the choice for an exterior egress door or a stairwell that isn't part of a rated assembly.
7) Can I get the Detex V40 with delayed egress or a request-to-exit switch?
Yes. Five electrified builds are offered: delayed egress, electric dogging, hardwired electric alarm, request to exit (signal) switch, or none. Delayed egress is the one for a retail or memory-care door where you want a 15 second hold before release. Request to exit gives your access control panel a signal that someone pushed the bar so it shunts the alarm. Electric dogging lets you schedule the door push/pull from the panel instead of sending someone with a hex key. All of these need power run to the door, so plan an electric hinge or door cord.
8) The door has a narrow aluminum stile - what rim exit device should I use instead of the Detex V40?
The Detex V40 Series V4002D2W is built for wide stile doors, so a narrow aluminum stile needs a narrow stile device instead. The Adams Rite 8800 Series 30 inch narrow stile rim device is Grade 1 and fits doors 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch thick. The Falcon 19-R is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device at 36 inch for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the TownSteel ED3700 is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim device at 36 inch. If the narrow stile opening also has to be fire rated, the Adams Rite 3700 Series 30 inch is a fire rated Grade 1 narrow stile rim device.
9) What is a direct Grade 1 wide stile rim exit device equivalent to the Detex V40 Series?
The Von Duprin 22-3FT is a close counterpart to the Detex V40 Series V4002D2W. Both are Grade 1 wide stile rim exit devices, and the Von Duprin 22-3FT is non-handed for 36 inch doors on 1-3/4 inch thickness. The Detex V40 is a Value Series wide stile rim device offered in 36 inch and 48 inch sizes with hex, cylinder, or less dogging. If the opening needs the 48 inch bar, the Detex V40 covers it in the same family; the Corbin Russwin ED5200 is another Grade 1 wide stile rim device at 36 inch on 1-3/4 inch doors.
10) What fire rated rim exit device works as a substitute for the Detex V40 on a labeled wide stile door?
The Detex V40 Series V4002D2W is offered in fire rated and hurricane and fire rated configurations. Cross-brand, the Sargent 12-8810-LTRIM is a fire rated Grade 1 wide stile rim exit device in the 8800 Series with a dummy function, which matches the outside dummy trim role of the V40. The Dexter ED1000 fire rated rim device is Grade 1, and the Marks USA M9900F is a fire rated rim exit device available at 36 inch and 48 inch for exit only openings.
11) What looks like a substitute for the Detex V40 rim device but is not?
Two categories get mistaken for it. The Hager 4501 Series 36 inch and Hager 4601 Series 36 inch are Grade 1 concealed vertical rod exit devices, not rim devices, so they require top and bottom rod preparation rather than the rim strike the Detex V40 Series V4002D2W uses. The SDC MSB550 mechanical switch bar and the SDC PSB560 pressure sense bar are 36 inch bars that signal an electromagnetic lock release rather than latching a Pullman bolt into a strike. The Dexter ED1500-EXTRD-SP is a 12 inch extension rod assembly for ED1500 devices, a component rather than a device.
12) The Detex V40 has a dummy lever - what if I need a keyed or nightlatch function on the outside instead?
The Detex V40 Series V4002D2W outside trim is a dummy lever, which is a pull with no latch retraction. For a keyed outside function, the Sargent 8504 is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device in a night latch function, and the Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim device that accepts trim on 1-3/4 inch doors. On wide stile, the Corbin Russwin ED5200 is Grade 1 and accepts trim at 36 inch. The Detex V40 itself accepts a variety of outside trims and functions, with trims changeable or rekeyable without removing the device from the door.
13) Which strike do I order with the Detex V40, surface or semi-mortise?
Two choices: the 99 surface strike or the 98 semi-mortise strike. The 99 screws to the face of the frame or mullion and is the quicker install with no cutting, which is what most retrofits use. The 98 semi-mortise sets into the frame for a flusher, less snag-prone look and is the one to pick when the frame is already prepped for it or the surface strike would foul the stop. Either way the device covers a 161 door prep.
14) What is the difference between hex dogging and cylinder dogging on the Detex V40?
Dogging is what holds the pushpad depressed so the door stays push/pull during business hours. Hex dogging uses an Allen key, cheapest and fine when only staff touch it. Cylinder dogging takes a keyed cylinder, so you control who can dog the door down, which is what schools and multi-tenant buildings usually want. Less/no dogging is the third choice and the one to order on a fire rated door, since fire exit hardware can't be held in the retracted position.
15) Is the Detex V40 tough enough for a high traffic entrance, and how does it compare to a Von Duprin 22?
The V40 is BHMA Grade 1 and holds more than 1400 pounds of static pull force, which is the number that matters on a door people yank on. It's Detex's Value Series, so it's Grade 1 performance at the economy end of their line. The Von Duprin 22 Series is the closest cross-brand equivalent we carry, also a Grade 1 wide stile pushpad rim device at 36 inches for 1-3/4 inch doors. Other Grade 1 wide stile rim options are the Corbin Russwin ED5200, the DORMA 8300, and the TownSteel ED1100.
16) How much door prep does installing a Detex V40 take on an existing opening?
Minimal. The V40 covers a 161 door prep, so a door already bored for a cylindrical lockset usually doesn't need patching, the device hides it. Detex ships a mounting plate and strike locator system in place of paper templates, which is what keeps the strike and the device in line on the first try. Door templates, installation instructions, a parts list and a maintenance manual are all published for the V40.
17) What is a simpler wide stile rim exit device if I do not need trim or a dummy lever?
The Detex V40 Series V4002D2W carries a dummy lever on the outside. If the opening is exit only with nothing on the pull side, the Corbin Russwin ED2200 is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device at 36 inch, the Sargent 2828 is a Grade 1 reversible wide stile rim device for 48 inch minimum door width, and the Imperial USA ED-501 is a Grade 1 wide stile rim panic device at 36 inch. The Cal-Royal 5000 at 36 inch and the Cal-Royal 5500 at 48 inch are Grade 2 heavy duty rim devices for the same exit only role.
18) What rim device should I use instead of the Detex V40 when the opening needs electrified access control?
The Detex V40 Series V4002D2W is available with delayed egress, electric dogging, a hardwired electric alarm, or a request to exit signal switch. If the specification calls for a different platform, the SDC S6136 is an electrified architectural rim exit device for 36 inch wide stile doors with a 4 inch stile and 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch door thickness, and the Dormakaba E2103 is an electrified 36 inch rim device with 4908A trim in an 08 classroom function. The Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar for 2-1/4 inch doors.
19) Is a crossbar or paddle rim panic device a substitute for the Detex V40 push pad?
They serve the same egress opening but present differently to the user. The Detex V40 Series V4002D2W is a wide stile rim exit device with a push rail. The CRL Jackson 1095 Series at 48 inch is a crossbar rim panic device for wide stile doors, and the CRL Jackson 1095P is a paddle version. The Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 crossbar rim exit device at 48 inch for wide stile doors 1-3/4 inch thick. The Sargent 3828 is a Grade 1 reversible standard push bar rim device for 48 inch doors.
20) I am standardizing exit hardware across a facility on Grade 1 heavy duty rim devices - what are the options alongside the Detex V40?
The Detex V40 Series V4002D2W is Grade 1 wide stile in 36 inch and 48 inch sizes. On the wide stile side, the TownSteel ED9700 and ED1100 are both Grade 1 heavy duty rim devices at 36 inch, and the DORMA 9300 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty wide stile rim device at 48 inch for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch. For narrow stile openings in the same facility, the Stanley Security QED200 Series and the Dormakaba QED200 are Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim devices, which lets one series cover both stile types across a mixed building.
21) Which rim exit devices besides the Detex V40 offer hex key dogging?
The Detex V40 Series V4002D2W is ordered with hex dogging, cylinder dogging, or less dogging. Among cross-brand rim devices, the Design Hardware 1000R is a 33 inch heavy duty rim device with hex key dogging and the Design Hardware 2000R is a 33 inch standard duty wide stile rim device with hex key dogging. The Stanley Security QED200 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim device with hex key dogging.
22) What 48 inch rim exit devices compare to the Detex V40 for a wide opening?
The Detex V40 Series V4002D2W is available in a 48 inch size. Comparable 48 inch devices include the DORMA 9300 Series Grade 1 heavy duty wide stile rim device for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch, the Corbin Russwin ED3200 Grade 1 crossbar rim device for wide stile doors 1-3/4 inch thick, the Marks USA M9900F 48 inch fire rated rim panic device, the Dexter ED1000 4FT Grade 1 rim device, and the Cal-Royal A9820 heavy duty 48 inch rim device.
23) How does the Detex V40 differ from a non-handed universal rim device like the BEST Precision 5101?
The Detex V40 Series V4002D2W is a non-handed device, but the outside dummy lever trim is ordered as right hand reverse or left hand reverse, so handing still has to be confirmed at the order. The BEST Precision 5101 Series is a non-handed universal rim device and the BEST 2401 Series is a narrow stile rim device that is exit only and non-handed, neither of which carries outside lever trim to hand. The BEST Precision 2101 Series at 36 inch is the wide stile rim device in that line.
24) What finishes does the Detex V40 exit device come in?
Brushed aluminum (628) and black aluminum (711), both anodized. The 628 is the standard match for clear anodized aluminum storefront, and 711 matches dark bronze or black frames. If you're standardizing a building, these are the two to spec across openings; the rail is a ribbed aluminum extrusion with high impact ABS end components, so the finish holds up in a lobby that sees constant traffic.
25) Can I use the Detex V40 in an apartment building or does it have to be a commercial property?
It's commercial hardware, and multi-tenant residential is one of its normal homes: apartment lobbies, stairwell doors, trash and utility rooms, and any door in the building on a required egress path. It's not for a unit entry door. The dummy lever build in particular suits a door residents only ever exit through, since the outside stays locked with no key access at that leaf.
