Detex V4009BNxNS-628-36 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the V40xNS latch into a standard 161 door prep?
It covers a 161 door prep, so on an existing opening already bored for a cylindrical lock the device body hides the prep and the door work needed is minimal. Latching is by a stainless steel 3/4 inch deadlocking Pullman type latch bolt into a surface strike on the frame or, on a pair, into a mullion.
2) Can I use this Detex rim device on a pair of doors?
Yes, on narrow stile single doors and on double doors with a mullion. Because it is a rim device, the Pullman latch throws into a strike, so a pair needs a removable mullion to give the inactive side something to latch into. If you want a pair with a clear opening and no mullion, look at a vertical rod device such as the Hager 4601 concealed vertical rod narrow stile device instead.
3) What do I have to specify when ordering a Detex V40xNS?
Four choices plus two required selections. Size is 36 inch or 48 inch, finish is 628 brushed aluminum or 711 black aluminum, rating is fire rated or non-rated, and the electrified option is None, hardwired electric alarm, electric dogging, delayed egress, or request to exit signal switch. You also must pick dogging (hex, cylinder, or less/no dogging) and handing, right hand reverse or left hand reverse.
4) Is the V40xNS handed, and what do the handing options mean?
The device rail itself is non-handed and field sizeable, but you still select Right Hand Reverse or Left Hand Reverse when ordering because the lever trim and outside prep are handed. Stand outside the door: if it swings out toward you and the hinges are on your right, that is right hand reverse.
5) Does the key on the V4009BNxNS trim retract the latch or just unlock the lever?
On this function the lever trim is active by key, and the lever locks again when the key is removed. So you key it to put the outside lever into service for normal traffic, then pull the key to relock the outside. Inside egress through the push rail is always free.
6) Is there a fire rated version of the Detex V40xNS with lever trim?
Yes. Rating is an ordering choice: fire rated or non-rated, in both sizes, both finishes, and with any of the electrified options. On the fire rated build, order Less/No dogging. If you want a fire rated alternative from another brand, the Dexter ED1000 Grade 1 fire rated rim device and the Marks USA M9900F in 36 or 48 inch are both fire rated, though those are exit only rather than lever trim.
7) Which narrow stile rim exit devices compare to the Detex V40xNS if I want key-operated lever trim rather than exit only?
The Detex V40xNS carries lever trim that is active by key and locked when the key is removed. Most narrow stile peers in the same Grade 1 class are exit only: the Falcon 19-R 36 inch, the Falcon 1590EO 42 inch, and the Falcon 1790EO 42 inch are all Grade 1 narrow stile exit only. The Corbin Russwin ED4200 36 inch is Grade 1 narrow stile and is listed as exit only but accepts trim, and the Sargent 8504 is a Grade 1 narrow design rim device in a night latch function, where the outside cylinder retracts the latch.
8) I need delayed egress or a request-to-exit signal on a narrow stile door - how does the Detex V40xNS compare to electrified peers?
The Detex V40xNS is offered with hardwired electric alarm, electric dogging, delayed egress, or a request to exit signal switch, in 36 inch and 48 inch, with key-operated lever trim. Among electrified peers, the SDC MSB550 36 inch mechanical switch bar and the SDC SureExit PSB560 36 inch pressure sense bar both fit narrow or wide stile but are switch bars rather than latching rim devices, and the Sargent 12-8810-LTRIM is a fire rated Grade 1 wide stile rim device with RX and motor electric latch retraction. The Securitron EMB electromechanical exit bar is listed for 2-1/4 inch doors.
9) Should I order cylinder dogging or hex dogging on this exit device?
Hex dogging is the cheaper and common choice for interior or lower security openings, since anyone with the hex key can hold the pushbar down and leave the door on push-pull. Cylinder dogging keys the dogging so only a keyholder can dog the device. If the opening is fire rated, order Less/No dogging, because mechanical dogging is not permitted on a fire door.
10) How do I hold a fire rated narrow stile door in the unlocked position if dogging is not allowed?
Use the electric dogging option. It retracts the latch electrically, so you get push-pull operation during business hours on an opening where mechanical dogging is not permitted, and the device relatches on power loss. Electric dogging is available on both the 36 inch and 48 inch V40xNS in fire rated form.
11) I need to know when a back exit door is opened. What option should I add?
Two choices on the V40xNS do different jobs. The hardwired electric alarm sounds locally at the door when the bar is pushed, which is what you want on a stockroom or emergency exit that should not be used. The request to exit signal switch sends a dry signal to your access control panel or alarm so the opening is logged and shunted rather than annunciated at the door.
12) Can I get a delayed egress version of this narrow stile exit device?
Yes, delayed egress is one of the electrified options, in both 36 inch and 48 inch and in fire rated or non-rated form. Delayed egress holds the door for a timed interval after the bar is pushed, and local authority approval plus the required signage and fire alarm release tie-in are part of that install.
13) How secure is the Detex V40 Value Series against someone pulling on the door?
The device withstands over 1,400 pounds of static pull force, and the latch is a stainless steel 3/4 inch deadlocking Pullman bolt, so the bolt resists being pushed back once the door is closed. It is ANSI Grade 1, the highest commercial rating.
14) What other narrow stile rim exit devices could I use instead of the Detex V40xNS?
Several Grade 1 narrow stile rim devices cover the same opening. The Corbin Russwin ED4200 is a 36 inch narrow stile rim device that accepts trim. TownSteel ED3700 and ED8900 are 36 inch Grade 1 narrow stile rim devices. Falcon 1590EO and 19-R are Grade 1 narrow stile, but exit only, so they take no outside lever. If you need a wood door, the Adams Rite 3700 Series is the fire rated narrow stile option listed as wood compatible.
15) What fire rated rim exit device can I use if the Detex V40xNS narrow stile rail does not suit the door?
Fire rated rim alternatives include the Dexter ED1000 Series fire rated Grade 1 rim device, the Arrow FS1250 32 inch fire rated rim device for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Orca OED85 36 inch fire rated exit only device, and the Marks USA M9900F in 36 inch and 48 inch, both exit only with a panic protector end cap. The Detex V40xNS differs from those exit only units in carrying lever trim active by key, locked when the key is removed.
16) Does the Adams Rite 8800 substitute for the Detex V40xNS on a narrow stile storefront?
Both are Grade 1 narrow stile rim devices for non-wood doors. The Adams Rite 8800 Series 30 inch is non-rated and lists a 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range with starwheel interlocking. The Detex V40xNS is offered in fire rated and non-rated builds at 36 inch and 48 inch with a stainless 3/4 inch deadlocking Pullman-type latch and key-controlled lever trim, so if the opening needs a fire rated device or outside key access, the 8800 will not cover it.
17) The opening has a wide stile aluminum or hollow metal door - what should I order instead of the Detex V40xNS?
The Detex V40xNS is built with an extended rail to span 2 inch narrow stile doors, so a wide stile door does not need it. Wide stile Grade 1 rim alternatives include the Von Duprin 22-3FT 36 inch non-handed pushpad device for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Corbin Russwin ED5200 36 inch which accepts trim, the TownSteel ED9700 36 inch heavy duty, and the Dormakaba 9300 Series 48 inch for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors.
18) Is the Cal-Royal A9800 a direct substitute for the Detex V40xNS?
No. The Detex V40xNS is Grade 1 narrow stile with key-operated lever trim. The Cal-Royal A9800 36 inch and A9820 48 inch are listed as Grade 2 heavy duty exit only rim devices, so they neither match the grade nor provide outside key control. If the spec calls for Grade 1, the narrow stile TownSteel ED3700 36 inch or ED8900 36 inch are Grade 1 heavy duty narrow stile rim devices.
19) Are the Hager 4601 and other concealed vertical rod devices interchangeable with the Detex V40xNS?
No. The Detex V40xNS is a rim device that latches into a strike on the frame or mullion and covers a 161 door prep. The Hager 4601 Series 36 inch is a Grade 1 narrow stile concealed vertical rod device and the Hager 4501 Series 36 inch is a Grade 1 concealed vertical rod device with a wide stile pushpad; both latch top and bottom and require a door prepared for concealed rods. If you want a Hager rim device instead, the 4701 Series 36 inch is a standard duty rim device with Grade 1 BHMA certification.
20) Will the V40xNS match the black storefront hardware already on my building?
Finish is either 628 brushed aluminum or 711 black aluminum, so a black anodized storefront can be matched with the 711. Surfaces are anodized over a ribbed aluminum rail extrusion with high impact ABS components, which is what holds up on high traffic entrance doors.
21) Do I still need paper templates to install this Detex exit device?
No. The V40 Value Series uses a patented mounting plate and strike locator that replaces paper templates, which removes most of the layout error on the strike position. Detex also publishes installation instructions and a parts list PDF for the series, plus door prep templates if your shop prefers to pre-prep the door.
22) Can the V40xNS take a different outside trim later if the function needs to change?
Yes. The device is modular and accepts a variety of outside trims and functions, so an opening now running key-controlled lever trim can be changed to another trim function later without replacing the rail. The V4009BNxNS is the build supplied with lever trim active by key.
