Detex V5002WP-628-36x84 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a Detex V50 surface vertical rod device secure a pair of doors with no mullion?
That is exactly what it is built for. The V50/V51 Value Series surface vertical rod device latches at the head and at the threshold instead of into a center post, so a pair of doors can be secured without a removable mullion. Securing comes from a stainless steel 3/4 inch deadlocking top latch bolt plus a 5/8 inch diameter by 5-5/8 inch long bottom drop bolt into the floor strike. If you would rather keep a mullion and a flat push bar, a rim device is the other way to do a pair.
2) Does the Detex V50/V51 exit device fit a narrow stile aluminum storefront door?
No. The V50/V51 is a wide stile device and needs the stile width a wide stile chassis requires. For a narrow stile aluminum storefront with a small vertical rail, you need a narrow stile exit device instead. On wide stile hollow metal or wood doors it is the right chassis.
3) What do I have to specify when I order a Detex V50 vertical rod device?
Five things decide the part. Device length, 36 inch or 48 inch, to match the door width. Door height, 84, 96 or 120 inch, which sets the rod length. Top and bottom rod, or top rod only. Dogging: hex dogging, cylinder dogging, or less dogging. Strike: the 96 surface non-roller top strike with non-dust proof bottom strike, or 96B to substitute a dust proof bottom strike. You also pick handing, right hand reverse or left hand reverse, and the rating (non-rated, fire rated, hurricane, or hurricane and fire rated).
4) What does the dummy pull trim on the V5002WP/V5102WP actually do?
The WP dummy pull trim is a fixed outside pull with no latch retraction, so the opening is exit only from outside. You push the bar to get out; you cannot enter through that leaf unless the device is dogged down. If you need keyed entry from outside, choose a keyed lever or keyed pull function instead. The V50/V51 accepts a range of outside trims, and trims can be changed or rekeyed without pulling the device off the door.
5) Can I get a Detex V50 for a fire rated door pair?
Yes, fire rated versions are offered, and there are also hurricane rated and hurricane plus fire rated builds alongside the non-rated one. One caution on fire doors: hardware on a fire rated opening cannot be dogged down, so a fire rated build should be ordered less dogging rather than with hex or cylinder dogging.
6) What is the closest wide stile Grade 1 surface vertical rod alternative to the Detex V5002WP/V5102WP?
The Von Duprin 8827-3FT is the nearest match on the core specs: it is a wide stile surface vertical rod exit device rated Grade 1, in a 3 ft width, from the 88 Series, and it is built for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Detex V50/V51 is also a Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod device, and it is offered in 36 inch and 48 inch widths. The practical difference is configuration breadth: the Detex is ordered with dummy pull trim and can be specified with electrified options including hardwired electric alarm, battery alarm, delayed egress, and a request to exit switch, and in fire rated, hurricane, hurricane and fire rated, or non-rated builds. If the opening only needs a plain 3 ft mechanical device on a 1-3/4 inch door, the 8827-3FT covers it.
7) I need a vertical rod device with no outside trim at all. What should I order instead of the Detex V5002WP?
The Detex V50/V51 configuration carries dummy pull trim, so there is an outside pull on the door. For an opening that should have nothing on the outside face, exit only devices are the right call: the Marks USA M9900VR in 36 inch by 84 inch and the M9900VR 48 inch by 84 inch are both exit only, and the Imperial USA ED-VR531 is a Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod device in 36 inch, also exit only. The Cal-Royal 9860 is another exit only surface vertical rod option. Choosing exit only removes the outside pull and the trim prep from the job.
8) What are the fire rated alternatives if I cannot get the fire rated Detex V50/V51 configuration?
Three peers are listed as fire rated vertical rod devices. The Delaney F9100 Series DLY-694300 is a Grade 1 fire rated heavy duty vertical rod device built for a 36 inch by 84 inch door in an aluminum finish. Marks USA offers the M9900FVR in 36 inch by 84 inch, fire rated and non-handed, and the M9900F-VR in 48 inch by 84 inch, fire rated and exit only. The Detex V50/V51 is handed with field reversible operation, so if the opening needs a non-handed device off the shelf the Marks M9900FVR is the one to look at. Confirm the door label and rod configuration before substituting on a fire opening.
9) Do I need a dust proof bottom strike on a Detex V50 vertical rod device?
If the bottom bolt drops into a floor strike in a dusty, sandy or frequently mopped area, order the 96B option, which substitutes a dust proof bottom strike for the standard one. The plain 96 option gives a surface non-roller top strike and a non-dust proof bottom strike, which is fine on clean interior floors. A dirty floor strike is the most common reason a bottom bolt stops seating.
10) Should I order a top rod only version, or top and bottom rod?
Top rod only (less bottom rod) keeps the bottom of the door clear, which helps where carts and traffic would beat up a floor strike, or where floor drainage and debris make a bottom bolt unreliable. Top and bottom rod gives the extra hold of the 5/8 inch by 5-5/8 inch bottom drop bolt into the floor strike, which is the stronger option for security. Both configurations are available on the V50/V51.
11) Is the Detex V50 handed, and can it be reversed on site?
It ships handed, right hand reverse or left hand reverse, but the design is field reversible, so an installer can change the hand without swapping the device. Order the hand you need to avoid the extra step at the door.
12) What electrified options can I get on the Detex V50 exit device?
Four, beyond the plain mechanical device: EA hardwired electric alarm, EB electric alarm with its own battery, EE delayed egress, and EX request to exit signal switch. EB is the one to look at on a retrofit where there is no power at the door. EX is what you order when the access control system needs to know the bar was pushed so the door does not report a forced open.
13) Can I hold the doors open during business hours with a Detex V50?
Yes, on a non-rated opening. Order hex dogging and staff can hold the bar down with an Allen key, or order cylinder dogging so it takes a key instead, which is what most property managers want when tenants or the public have access to the bar. On a fire rated opening, order less dogging.
14) Is the Cal-Royal 9860 a direct substitute for the Detex V5002WP/V5102WP?
Not a direct one. The Cal-Royal 9860 is a heavy duty surface vertical rod exit device, but it is rated Grade 2 and is not fire rated, and it is an exit only function. The Detex V50/V51 is Grade 1 and is ordered with dummy pull trim, with fire rated and hurricane rated builds among the options. On an opening where the specification calls for Grade 1 or a labeled fire door, the 9860 will not meet it. On a non-rated exit only opening with an ADA requirement, the 9860 is a workable device in its own right.
15) What is a simpler Grade 1 vertical rod device for a standard 36 by 84 non-rated opening?
For a plain non-rated 36 inch by 84 inch door, the Delaney 8100 Series DLY-8100-3684 is a Grade 1 vertical rod device sized for exactly that opening, and the Delaney 9100 Series DLY-692301 is a Grade 1 heavy duty vertical rod device for the same 36 by 84 door in a stainless steel finish. Both are non-rated. The Detex V50/V51 is Grade 1 as well and comes in 628 aluminum, but it is configured across dogging type, strike type, handing, door height, and electrified options, so it is the choice when the opening needs alarm, delayed egress, or request to exit functionality rather than a straight mechanical device.
16) None of the alternatives mention a hurricane rating. Does that rule them out?
It means the choice narrows if hurricane rating is a job requirement. The Detex V50/V51 is ordered in non-rated, fire rated, hurricane, or hurricane and fire rated builds. Among the peers, the ratings called out are fire rating only: the Delaney F9100 DLY-694300 and the Marks USA M9900FVR and M9900F-VR are fire rated, while the Von Duprin 8827-3FT, the Imperial ED-VR531, the Delaney 8100 and 9100 devices, and the Cal-Royal 9860 are not fire rated. For a coastal opening with a windborne debris requirement, stay with the hurricane configuration of the V50/V51.
17) My opening is a 48 inch leaf. Which vertical rod devices cover that width?
The Detex V50/V51 is offered in 36 inch and 48 inch, with door heights of 84, 96, and 120 inches and a top rod only or top and bottom rod build. Among the alternatives, the Marks USA M9900VR 48 inch by 84 inch covers a 48 inch leaf non-rated and exit only, and the Marks USA M9900F-VR 48 inch by 84 inch covers it fire rated and exit only. The Von Duprin 8827-3FT, the Imperial ED-VR531, and the Delaney 36 by 84 devices are all sized for the narrower 36 inch leaf.
18) Will the Detex V50 match the aluminum finish on my other storefront hardware?
The V50/V51 is supplied in 628 aluminum, the clear anodized aluminum finish that matches standard aluminum storefront and most commercial door trim. The rail is a ribbed aluminum extrusion with impact resistant ABS end caps and anodized surfaces, so it holds up in high traffic corridors.
19) How hard is the Detex V50 to install compared to a typical panic device?
Detex ships a patented mounting plate and strike locator system in place of paper templates, which is what keeps the top latch and the floor strike lined up on a vertical rod job. Door prep is minimal and the rails are field sizable, so one device length covers a range of door widths. Detex publishes installation instructions and a parts list for the V50/V51, plus door prep templates.
