Camden Door Controls CM-1010-7224-60KA Key Switch Spst

Product Description

The Camden Door Controls CM-1010-7224-60KA is a surface mount key switch with a single-pole single-throw (SPST) configuration, designed for access control applications in commercial and institutional facilities. This type of switch allows authorized personnel to activate or release an electric door locking or exit device by inserting and turning a key, providing a simple and secure manual control point. It mounts directly to a wall or door frame surface, requiring no cutout or recessed housing. Electricians and low-voltage access control technicians are the primary trades that install and wire this device.

Surface mount key switches like the CM-1010-7224-60KA are commonly used in commercial buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, and industrial sites where controlled egress or entry points are required. Typical installations include pairing the switch with electric strikes, magnetic locks, or door release buttons as part of a broader access control or exit device system. The SPST configuration makes it straightforward to wire into a normally open or normally closed control circuit depending on the application requirement.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or certified low-voltage technician familiar with access control systems and applicable local codes. Disconnect and de-energize the door control circuit before wiring the switch to avoid damage to connected devices or personal injury. Surface mounting hardware should be appropriate for the wall or frame material at the installation point. Verify the switch logic (normally open vs. normally closed) matches the requirements of the connected locking or release device before commissioning.
