Detex V4008BN HD 628 99 36 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I use the Detex V40 on an aluminum storefront door with a narrow stile?
No, the V40 is built for wide stile doors. A narrow stile aluminum storefront needs a device sized for that rail, such as the Adams Rite 8800 Series or the Corbin Russwin ED4200, both narrow stile rim devices. Trying to mount a wide stile pushpad on a narrow rail will not leave enough face width.
2) Does the Detex V40 come fire rated, and what about hurricane rated openings?
Four rating options are offered on the V40: Standard, F for fire rated, H for hurricane, and HF for both hurricane and fire rated. The rating is chosen when ordering, so a fire door assembly needs the F or HF version specified up front. The hurricane options are the distinguishing piece here, most rim devices of this type are offered fire rated only.
3) Will the Detex V40 latch into the strike already on my frame?
The V40 uses a stainless steel 3/4 inch deadlocking Pullman-type latch bolt and ships with its own strike and a patented strike locator, so it is set up to be installed with the Detex strike rather than reused into an existing one. The locator plate replaces paper templates and positions the strike off the device itself, which is what keeps the 3/4 inch throw engaging correctly.
4) Can the Detex V40 be used on a pair of doors?
Yes, but as a rim device it latches into the frame or a mullion, not into the other leaf. For a pair, you need a removable mullion with a rim device on each leaf. The V40 is described as fitting single and double door installations with mullions. If you want a pair with no mullion and a clear opening, you need a vertical rod device instead, such as the Hager 4501 concealed vertical rod.
5) Do I have to specify handing on the Detex V40?
The device itself is non-handed. Handing only comes into play with the 08BN classroom lever narrow trim, where you choose Right Hand Reverse or Left Hand Reverse. Order the 08D2W classroom lever wide trim and no handing selection is needed.
6) What dogging options does the Detex V40 offer, and can I dog a fire rated one?
Three choices: cylinder dogging, hex key dogging, or less dogging. Cylinder dogging lets a keyholder hold the pushpad depressed for push/pull traffic during business hours; hex dogging does the same with an allen wrench. Fire rated openings cannot be dogged, so pair the F or HF rating with the less dogging option.
7) How does the key locks/unlocks lever trim on the Detex V40 actually work?
The outside lever trim is a classroom function: a key at the outside cylinder locks or unlocks the lever, so once unlocked the lever retracts the latch freely until someone keys it back to locked. Egress from inside is always free through the pushpad. Trim is either the 08BN narrow lever or the 08D2W wide lever, and Detex trims can be changed or rekeyed without pulling the device off the door.
8) Can I get a Detex exit device with a built-in alarm or delayed egress?
Yes. The V40 offers EA hardwired electric alarm, EB electric alarm with battery, and EE delayed egress, or None for a plain mechanical device. EB is the one to pick where there is no power at the door, since it runs on battery. Delayed egress is a code-controlled function, so confirm your local authority permits it on that opening before specifying EE.
9) I need a fire rated rim exit device on a wood door - can I use the Detex V40?
No. The Detex V40 Series is not wood door compatible, even though it is offered in F fire rated and HF hurricane and fire rated configurations. For a fire rated rim device on a wood door, the Adams Rite 3700 Series 30 inch narrow stile rim exit device is fire rated and wood door compatible. Adams Rite 8700 Series is also wood door compatible but is not fire rated.
10) What is the closest wide stile Grade 1 rim exit device to the Detex V40 if I need a different brand on the same opening?
The Von Duprin 22-3FT is a 36 inch wide stile pushpad rim exit device, non-handed, Grade 1, for 1-3/4 inch doors, which lines up with the Detex V40 Series wide stile rim device's Grade 1 rating and 36 inch length. Corbin Russwin ED5200 is another Grade 1 wide stile rim device at 36 inches for 1-3/4 inch doors, and it is listed as exit only, accepts trim, so it will take an outside lever trim the way the V40 accepts its 08BN narrow or 08D2W wide classroom lever trim. TownSteel ED9700 at 36 inches is a heavy duty Grade 1 wide stile rim device as well.
11) Is the SDC MSB550 switch bar a substitute for the Detex V40 rim exit device?
No. The SDC MSB550 Series 36 inch unit is a mechanical switch bar with electromagnetic lock release, and the SDC PSB560 SureExit is a pressure sense bar - both are request-to-exit bars that release a separate electromagnetic lock rather than rim exit devices with their own latch. The Detex V40 Series is a rim exit device with a stainless steel 3/4 inch deadlocking Pullman-type latch bolt, so it latches into a rim strike on its own. Securitron EMB is likewise an electromechanical exit bar, listed for 2-1/4 inch doors.
12) I need an electrified rim device with classroom lever trim - how does the Dormakaba E2103 compare to the Detex V40?
The Dormakaba E2103-4908A is a 36 inch electrified rim exit device with 4908A trim in the 08 classroom function. The Detex V40 Series is offered with 08BN classroom lever narrow trim or 08D2W classroom lever wide trim, and its electrified options are EA hardwired electric alarm, EB electric alarm with battery, and EE delayed egress - so the electrification on the V40 is alarm and delayed egress rather than an electrified trim. SDC S6136 Spectra is another electrified architectural rim device, 36 inch with a 4 inch wide stile, for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors.
13) Is the Detex V40 strong enough for a back door with break-in problems?
It is built for it. The V40 withstands over 1400 pounds of static pull force and uses a stainless steel 3/4 inch deadlocking Pullman latch on a heavy duty ribbed aluminum rail extrusion, which is why it gets specified on retail and warehouse loss prevention doors. It is Grade 1 and rated commercial.
14) What are the closest alternatives to the Detex V40 wide stile rim device from other brands?
Straight Grade 1 wide stile rim equivalents include the Von Duprin 22 Series (36 inch, non-handed, 1-3/4 inch doors), the Corbin Russwin ED5200 (36 inch, accepts trim), the TownSteel ED9700 and the Dormakaba 9300 Series in 48 inch. If you need fire rated exit only with no trim, the Marks USA M9900F comes in 36 and 48 inch. For a lighter budget door, the Cal-Royal 5000 is a Grade 2 wide rim device.
15) I need an electrified exit device for access control. Is the Detex V40 the right choice?
The V40's electrified options are alarm and delayed egress functions, not remote latch release. If you need the outside trim released by a card reader or a request-to-exit signal back to an access control panel, look at the SDC S6136 electrified rim device (wide stile, 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors), the Dormakaba E2103 with 4908A trim in classroom function, or the Sargent 8800 wide stile fire rated device with RX and motorized latch retraction.
16) Can I standardize a whole building on the Detex V40 and still get different functions per door?
That is the way the V40 is set up. The rail is modular and non-handed, accepts a range of outside trims, and trims can be swapped or rekeyed without taking the device off the door. So you can run the same Grade 1 rim device and 628 or 711 finish across every opening, and vary the trim, dogging and rating door by door as the use and fire rating demand.
17) What are the Grade 2 alternatives to the Detex V40 wide rim exit device?
The Detex V40 Series is a Grade 1 device. If a Grade 2 chassis meets the spec, Cal-Royal 5000 is a 36 inch wide rim exit device with a touch bar and a Grade 2 heavy duty chassis, and Cal-Royal 5500 is a 48 inch wide rim exit device with a push bar, also Grade 2 heavy duty. Those two cover the same 36 and 48 inch lengths the V40 is offered in.
18) The V40 has a push pad - what if the job calls for a crossbar or paddle device instead?
For a crossbar rim device, Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a Grade 1 48 inch crossbar rim exit device for 1-3/4 inch wide stile doors, and CRL Jackson 1095 Series is a 48 inch crossbar rim panic device, wide stile, exit only. For a paddle actuator, CRL Jackson 1095P is a paddle rim panic exit device, wide stile, exit only. Sargent 3828 is a Grade 1 reversible standard push bar wide stile rim device for 48 inch doors.
19) Which alternatives to the Detex V40 come fire rated from the factory in 36 and 48 inch?
The V40 Series is offered in F fire rated and HF hurricane and fire rated configurations in both 36 and 48 inch lengths. Among other brands, Marks USA M9900F is fire rated and exit only in a 36 inch and a 48 inch version. Dexter ED1000-R-F-EO is a Grade 1 fire rated rim exit device, and Orca OED85 is a 36 inch fire rated rim exit device, exit only.
20) I need hex key dogging on a rim device - what else offers it besides the Detex V40?
The Detex V40 Series is available with cylinder dogging, hex dogging, or less dogging. Design Hardware 1000R is a 33 inch heavy duty rim device with hex key dogging, and the 2000R is a 33 inch standard duty wide stile rim device with hex key dogging. Stanley Security's QED200 Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim device with hex-key dogging. Note that dogging is not permitted on fire rated openings, where the less dogging configuration applies.
21) Is a concealed vertical rod device an alternative to the Detex V40 rim device?
They solve different openings. The Detex V40 Series is a rim device, latching into a strike on the frame head or a mullion for single and double doors. Hager 4501 is a 36 inch Grade 1 concealed vertical rod exit device with a wide stile pushpad, and Hager 4601 is the 36 inch Grade 1 narrow stile concealed vertical rod version - those latch top and bottom through rods concealed in the door, which requires a door prepped for that hardware and is typically specified for pairs without a mullion.
22) How does the Sargent 8500 nightlatch differ from the Detex V40 with classroom lever trim?
The Sargent 8504 is a Grade 1 narrow stile rim exit device in nightlatch function, where the outside cylinder retracts the latch momentarily for entry. The Detex V40 Series is offered with 08BN or 08D2W classroom lever trim, a key locks/unlocks function where the key changes the state of the outside lever rather than only granting a momentary pass. The 8504 is also narrow stile, while the V40 is a wide stile device.
23) What finishes does the Detex V40 exit device come in?
Two: 628 brushed aluminum and 711 black aluminum. 628 is the usual match for clear anodized aluminum storefront, 711 for dark bronze or black anodized frames.
24) How much door prep does the Detex V40 need, and is there a template?
Door prep is minimal for a wide stile device, and Detex supplies a patented mounting plate and strike locator that takes the place of a paper template, which is what keeps the device and strike lined up on the first try. Detex publishes installation instructions, a parts list and a maintenance manual for the V40 if you want the hole pattern before you cut the door.
