Detex 08-D-S-626-RHR – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Which Detex exit devices does this wide stile lever trim work with?
The Detex wide stile lever trim mounts to 10 Series rim devices, 20/21 Series surface vertical rod, 30 Series mortise (order with the "M" designation and adapter), and 70-83 Series concealed vertical rod devices. When you order, the Devices option is what pins it down: Wide Strike Rim and SVR, Narrow Stile Rim and SVR, Value Rim and SVR, or Mortise Body. Pick the one that matches the device already on the door.
2) What mortise cylinder do I need for the Detex break-away lever trim?
It takes a 1 inch to 1-1/8 inch mortise cylinder, and the short cylinder collar for that length ships with the trim. If your cylinder sits deeper or you need extra projection, the tall collar is Part #100752-X and is ordered separately. The cylinder itself is not included, so specify your keyway and cam with the rest of the order.
3) What does break-away mean on the Detex lever trim, and does the lever have to be replaced after someone forces it?
No replacement needed. When excessive force is applied, the lever disengages internally and drops down instead of transferring the load into the trim or the device. You reset it by hand to restore normal operation. That is the point of the design in vandal-prone openings: the abuse costs you a service call, not a new trim.
4) My existing exit device is exit-only with no outside trim. Can I add this Detex lever trim to it?
Only if the device is one of the Detex families this trim is built for: 10 Series rim, 20/21 surface vertical rod, 30 Series mortise with the adapter, or 70-83 concealed vertical rod. Several exit-only devices are sold with no trim provision at all, for example the Cal-Royal 9860 and the Marks USA M9900VR are listed as exit only. On those you replace the device rather than add trim to it.
5) I need outside lever access on a fire rated vertical rod opening - can I use the Detex lever trim?
The Detex Wide Stile Lever Trim is the outside trim, and the fire rating is carried by the exit device it mounts to, not by the trim. For a fire rated vertical rod opening you would specify a fire rated device such as the Delaney F9100 Series, a Grade 1 fire rated heavy duty vertical rod device for a 36 by 84 inch door, or the Marks USA M9900FVR for the same 36 by 84 inch size; the Marks MARM9900F-VR covers 48 by 84 inch fire rated openings. Confirm the trim you order matches the device series you install.
6) Should I order the narrow escutcheon or the wide escutcheon Detex trim?
Both escutcheon widths are offered against every device group, so the choice is driven by your stile and by what the old trim covered. A narrow escutcheon suits aluminum storefront stiles and leaves a smaller footprint; a wide escutcheon covers more of the stile face and hides previous prep on a hollow metal or wood door. Match it to the exit device family you selected at the same time.
7) Is there a Detex lever trim option for a hospital or a plant where people wear gloves or need a tactile warning?
Yes, there is a knurled lever option, ordered with the KN designation, which gives a textured grip on the lever. Detex also offers optional anti-microbial (AM) coating for healthcare and other high-contact areas. Both are specified at time of order, not added later.
8) Can I change the trim function later without pulling the exit device off the door?
Function changes can be made without removing the exit device, and the trim works with the BP1 mounting plate, which is what makes retrofitting onto an existing opening straightforward. Useful if a tenant change turns a keyed opening into a always-unlocked one and you do not want to re-prep the door.
9) Will the Detex lever trim fit a 2 inch thick door, or do I need a different device?
The Detex Wide Stile Lever Trim is made for doors 1-3/4 inch through 2-1/4 inch thick and takes 1 inch to 1-1/8 inch mortise cylinders with the included short collar. By contrast, the Von Duprin 8827-3FT surface vertical rod device is specified at 1-3/4 inch door thickness, so on a thicker leaf the Detex trim covers a range the Von Duprin device does not.
10) If the door only needs push-to-exit and no outside lever, what should I order instead of the Detex lever trim?
Skip the trim entirely and use an exit-only vertical rod device. The Marks USA M9900VR is an exit only, non-handed vertical rod panic device for a 36 by 84 inch door, with the M9900VR-48X84 covering 48 by 84 inch. The Cal-Royal 9860 is a heavy duty Grade 2 exit only surface vertical rod device. Exit only means there is no outside operating trim, so nobody can key or lever their way in from the pull side.
11) My opening has a narrow stile aluminum door - is the Detex wide stile lever trim still the right call over a wide stile device?
The Detex lever trim is ordered by the device family it mates to, and narrow stile rim and SVR exit devices are among the choices, along with wide strike rim and SVR, value rim and SVR, and mortise body devices, each in narrow or wide escutcheon. Complete devices such as the Von Duprin 8827-3FT and the Imperial USA ED-VR531 are both wide stile surface vertical rod devices, so they are specified for wide stile doors rather than narrow aluminum stiles.
12) What finishes does the Detex wide stile lever trim come in?
Four: 626 satin chrome, 689 lacquer-sprayed aluminum, 693 black painted, and 695 dark bronze painted. All four run across the narrow and wide escutcheon options, so you can standardize a building on one finish regardless of which device family each opening carries.
13) What is the Detex lever trim made of? Will it hold up on a high traffic exterior door?
The D trims are forged brass and the FSB levers are forged steel, which is what carries the abuse on an exterior opening. Combined with the break-away mechanism, that is the construction intended for schools, warehouses, retail back doors and other places where the outside lever gets leaned on.
