Electrified hinges are engineered to transfer low-voltage electrical current from the door frame to the door leaf while still providing dependable door movement. These hinges are commonly used on commercial doors, where electronic locks, alarms, or access control systems need a concealed and reliable power connection.

Buying Guide
-
Power & Wire Count: Match the hinge’s internal wire capacity to your electrical needs (e.g., number of devices, sensors, or locks you’ll power through the hinge).
-
Door Weight & Traffic Level: Choose heavier gauge or ball bearing models for larger commercial doors or high-cycle environments.
-
Material & Finish: Select a finish that matches the door and frame, and a material (e.g., stainless steel) suited for your environment’s durability and corrosion resistance requirements.
-
Compatibility with Security Systems: Ensure the electrified hinge is compatible with the electric lock, exit device, alarm, or access control system you plan to use.
-
Installation Requirements: Because electrified hinges include wiring, confirm that your door and frame can accommodate the hinge’s wiring path and any associated power supplies or controllers.
