Repair or restore the electrified function of a compatible Detex Value Series 48" exit device with the Detex 104287-4 EX-W Weatherized Filler Plate Subassembly.

Designed for exterior doors, gates, and other wet or weather-exposed environments, this genuine Detex replacement assembly features a built-in EX-W Weatherized Request-to-Exit switch that monitors operation of the exit-device pushpad.

When the pushpad is depressed, the EX-W switch changes contact state, allowing the device to signal a compatible access-control panel, alarm, remote strobe, monitoring system, or separate delayed-egress controller.

The 104287-4 is specifically the 4-foot / 48" Less Dogging (LD) configuration.

EX-W Weatherized Request-to-Exit

The EX-W option provides a weatherized switch that electronically monitors the exit-device pushpad.

When the pushpad is operated, the switch can provide a signal to compatible equipment such as:

• Access-control panels

• Security systems

• Alarm systems

• Remote horns

• Remote strobe lights

• Monitoring stations

• Separate delayed-egress controllers

The weatherized construction makes EX-W particularly useful on exterior gates and doors exposed to moisture.

SPDT / Form C Switch

The EX-W switch provides SPDT / Form C contacts:

Yellow: Normally Open
Brown: Common
Green: Normally Closed

This allows the installer to configure either a Normally Open or Normally Closed signaling circuit depending on the connected control system.

Important EX-W vs. EXV-W Distinction

The EX-W is designed primarily as a low-current signaling / Request-to-Exit switch.

If the application requires the exit device switch to directly shunt power to an electromagnetic lock, Detex specifies the separate EXV-W high-current weatherized switch.

48" / 4' Configuration

Detex identifies:

104287-2 – EX-W fillerplate, 3' / 36", LD
104287-4 – EX-W fillerplate, 4' / 48", LD

This listing is specifically for the 104287-4 48" version.

Less Dogging – LD

The 104287-4 is an LD / Less Dogging configuration.

It does not include a standard mechanical hex- or cylinder-dogging function.

Verify the existing exit device configuration before replacing the fillerplate.

Weatherized Applications

Ideal for compatible Detex hardware installed on:

• Exterior commercial doors

• Security gates

• Garden-center exits

• Warehouse exterior doors

• Loading areas

• Industrial facilities

• Outdoor secured openings

• Perimeter gates

• Other wet or weather-exposed applications
