Detex V5002A-628-36x84 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a Detex V5002A vertical rod device latch a pair of doors with no mullion?
That is exactly what a surface vertical rod device is for. The Detex V5002A/V5102A latches at the head with a 3/4 inch stainless deadlocking top latch bolt and at the floor with a 5/8 inch diameter by 5-5/8 inch long bottom drop bolt, so the door secures top and bottom instead of into a center mullion. If you would rather keep a mullion and use rim devices, that is the other way to do a pair, but with this device you do not need one.
2) Do I have to order the Detex V50/V51 by hand, or can I reverse it in the field?
You specify a hand at order time, Right Hand Reverse or Left Hand Reverse, but the device is field reversible, so a unit already on the shelf can be switched if the opening turns out to be the other hand. That matters most on double doors where you are ordering two devices in opposite hands.
3) I have 10-foot doors. Does the Detex Value Series cover that height?
Yes. Door height is specified at 84, 96, or 120 inches, so a 10-foot leaf is covered by the 120 inch rod option. Rail length is separate: 36 inch for door widths up to 3 feet and 48 inch for wider leaves, and the rail is field sizable if you need to trim it in.
4) Can I get a Detex vertical rod device with only a top rod, no bottom bolt?
Yes, the vertical rod option is either a top and bottom rod device or a top rod only device. Top rod only is the common choice where a floor strike is a trip hazard or the floor is uneven or gets wet, since there is no bottom bolt dropping into the threshold. Top and bottom gives you the second point of latching at the floor.
5) Is the Detex V5002A fire rated, and can I get it hurricane rated too?
Rating is an ordering choice: non-rated, fire rated, hurricane, or hurricane and fire rated. Note that a fire rated device cannot be dogged, so on fire doors order the less/no dogging option rather than hex or cylinder dogging.
6) Will the Detex V50 fit a narrow stile aluminum storefront door?
No. The V5002A/V5102A is a wide stile device and needs the stile width of a hollow metal or wood door, or a wide stile aluminum door. For a narrow stile glass storefront leaf you need a narrow stile device instead. The outside trim is a separate matter: standard and narrow stile pull trims are both offered for this device.
7) What does the dummy pull trim on the V5002A do? Is it keyed?
Dummy pull trim is a pull handle only, with no cylinder and no outside latch retraction. It gives you something to grab from outside on a door that is exit only from the inside. If you need to get in from outside with a key, you want a keyed trim function instead, not the dummy pull. Trims on this device can be changed or rekeyed without pulling the device off the door.
8) For a fire rated pair of doors, what are the alternatives to a fire rated Detex V5002A/V5102A?
The Detex V5002A/V5102A is ordered with a rating option of Fire Rated, Hurricane, Hurricane and Fire Rated, or Non-Rated. Fire rated vertical rod alternatives include the Delaney F9100 Series (DLY-694300), a Grade 1 fire rated heavy duty vertical rod device for a 36 by 84 door in aluminum finish, and the Marks USA M9900FVR at 36 by 84 or MARM9900F-VR at 48 by 84, both fire rated and exit only. Of these, only the Detex offers a hurricane rating option.
9) What is the closest wide stile surface vertical rod equivalent to the Detex V5002A/V5102A from another manufacturer?
The Von Duprin 8827-3FT is the nearest wide stile match. Both are Grade 1 surface vertical rod exit devices with wide stile construction, and the 8827-3FT covers a 3 ft door with a 1-3/4 inch door thickness. The Detex V5002A/V5102A is offered in 36 inch and 48 inch sizes and in door heights of 84, 96 and 120 inches, so it reaches taller openings than a single 3 ft Von Duprin listing covers.
10) If the opening only needs exit-only hardware with no outside trim, what vertical rod device should be used instead of the Detex V5002A/V5102A?
The Detex V5002A/V5102A is configured with dummy pull trim on the outside. For an opening that needs no outside trim at all, the Marks USA M9900VR is an exit-only vertical rod panic device for a 36 by 84 door and is non-handed, and the Imperial USA ED-VR531 is a Grade 1 wide stile surface vertical rod exit device in exit-only function at 36 inches. The Detex is a handed, field reversible device rather than non-handed.
11) What are the dogging options on the Detex Value Series, and which should I pick?
Three choices: hex dogging, cylinder dogging, or less/no dogging. Hex key dogging is 1/8 turn and is the standard pick for a non-rated door you want to hold in a push-pull state during business hours. Cylinder dogging locks that function to a key so tenants or students cannot dog the door. Less dogging is required on fire rated openings.
12) What electrified options can I order with the Detex V50/V51 exit device?
Four, plus none: EA hardwired electric alarm, EB electric alarm with battery, EE delayed egress, and EX request to exit signal switch. EB is the one to reach for on a remote exit door with no power run to it. EX is what an integrator ties into an access control panel to shunt an alarm on legitimate egress. EE delayed egress is used where local code permits a hold on the door.
13) Which strike should I order, the 96 or the 96B?
The 96 gives you a surface non-roller top strike with a standard bottom strike. The 96B swaps that bottom strike for a dust proof strike, which is what you want when the bolt drops into a floor that collects grit, sand, or water. On an exterior door or a warehouse floor, the dust proof strike keeps the hole from packing and blocking the bottom bolt.
14) How does the Detex Value Series compare to a Von Duprin 8827 or a Cal-Royal 9860?
All three are surface vertical rod devices, but they are not the same class. The Detex V5002A/V5102A is Grade 1 wide stile, offered non-rated, fire rated, or hurricane rated, with dummy pull trim. The Von Duprin 8827-3FT is also Grade 1 wide stile, 3 foot, listed for 1-3/4 inch doors and non-fire-rated. The Cal-Royal 9860 is Grade 2, exit only and not fire rated, so it is the lighter-duty option and will not satisfy a Grade 1 spec.
15) Is there a non-handed vertical rod device I could use instead so I only stock one part?
The Detex V5002A/V5102A is handed and ordered as Right Hand Reverse or Left Hand Reverse, though it is field reversible. If you would rather not deal with handing at all, the Marks USA M9900VR is a non-handed vertical rod panic device, available for 36 x 84 and 48 x 84 openings, and the M9900FVR is the fire rated non-handed version. Those are exit only, so no outside pull trim comes with them.
16) Do I still need a paper template to install the Detex V50, and how much door prep is involved?
No paper template. The V50/V51 uses a patented mounting plate and strike locator system that marks the hole locations on the door and frame for you, and door prep is minimal. Detex publishes the installation instructions and the parts list as PDFs, plus door prep templates and an installation video if your crew wants to see it done first.
17) Will this hold up on a high traffic school or hospital exit?
It is built for it. Grade 1 commercial construction, a ribbed aluminum rail extrusion with impact resistant ABS and anodized surfaces, a stainless steel top latch bolt, and an angled end cap that deflects cart and door-stop impact away from the device. Grade 1 is the top ANSI/BHMA duty level for exit hardware, which is what most institutional specs call for.
18) Do any of the vertical rod alternatives to the Detex V5002A/V5102A offer cylinder dogging?
The Detex V5002A/V5102A is ordered with a dogging selection of hex dogging, cylinder dogging, or less/no dogging, and uses a 1/8 turn dogging mechanism. Among the comparables, the fire rated Delaney F9100 and the Marks USA M9900FVR and MARM9900F-VR are fire rated devices, and fire rated exit hardware is not dogged. For a non-rated opening where the leaf needs to be held in a push-pull condition during business hours, the Detex dogging options address that directly.
19) What finishes does the Detex V5002A come in?
Two anodized finishes: 628 brushed aluminum and 711 black aluminum. Brushed aluminum is the usual match for clear anodized storefront and existing aluminum hardware; 711 black is the one to pick against dark bronze or black painted doors.
