Dakota Door Controls 4.5" x 4" Heavy Duty Electric Hinge For Transferring Power From Aluminum Storefront Door Frame to Door
The Dakota Door Controls electric power transfer hinge is designed to distribute low voltage power from a commercial door frame to the door. These electric door hinges work great for security door systems that require power to electrified hardware on the door such as electrified mortise locks, electrified cylindrical locks, electrified exit devices, and much more.

Dakota Door Controls Wire Options and Specifications
Below are the wire options available with Dakota Door Controls electric hinges. As a general rule of thumb, if the electrified hinge is going to be used to run power to an electrical device, be sure the power wires are the proper gauge by referring to the manufacturer specification of the device. Typically, 18 gauge wires are used for distributing power to electric lock accessories, while 26 and 28 gauge wires are utilized for REX monitoring. Assume 2 wires for each type of monitoring on an electric lock. For example, an electrified exit device with REX (request to exit) monitoring and latchbolt monitoring would require a power transfer hinge with a total of 6 wires (2 each 18 gauge wires to power the electric solenoid in the exit device, 2 each 26 gauge wires for the REX monitoring, and 2 each 26 gauge wires for the latchbolt monitoring).
2 Total Wires (2 Each 20 Gauge Wire)- Continuous Operation: 4 Amps at 24VDC
- Surge Amperage For 0.5 Seconds: 16 Amps at 24VDC
4 Total Wires (4 Each 26 Gauge Wire)- Continuous Operation: 1 Amps at 24VDC
6 Total Wires (6 Each 26 Gauge Wire)- Continuous Operation: 1 Amps at 24VDC
8 Total Wires (8 Each 28 Gauge Wire)- Continuous Operation: 1 Amps at 24VDC
10 Total Wires (10 Each 28 Gauge Wire)- Continuous Operation: 1 Amps at 24VDC
