Detex V50 Eb Cd 628 96 36X84 Vertical Rod Exit Device

Product Description

The DETEX V50 EB CD 628 96 36X84 is a wide stile surface vertical rod exit device designed for single-door egress applications requiring panic hardware with an integrated battery-operated alarm. The device spans 36 inches to fit standard commercial door widths and is sized for an 84-inch door height. It ships with a 96 surface strike and features cylinder dogging, which allows the latch to be held in the retracted position for high-traffic periods without activating the alarm. The finish is satin aluminum clear anodized (628), suited for aluminum door frames and storefront-style construction. Licensed locksmiths, door hardware specialists, and commercial contractors are the typical installers.

This exit device is used on wide stile aluminum doors in commercial and light industrial settings where code-compliant egress hardware is required. The surface vertical rod configuration engages both the top and bottom of the door frame, providing secure latching along the full door height. The battery-operated alarm adds an audible alert when the door is pushed open, making it appropriate for emergency exit doors, secondary egress points in retail, schools, and office buildings where monitored exit control is needed without hardwired connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed door hardware technician or commercial contractor familiar with ANSI and local building code egress requirements. Secure all fasteners to the door manufacturer specifications and verify that the vertical rod engages the top and bottom strikes correctly before closing up. Do not block or permanently defeat the alarm mechanism, as this may violate fire and life safety codes. Replace the battery per the manufacturer schedule to ensure alarm reliability.
