Camden Door Controls CM-7536/4AR Column Touchbar Switch

Product Description

The Camden Door Controls CM-7536/4AR is a column-mount touchbar switch designed for access control and door activation applications. Spanning 36 inches, this aluminum-construction touchbar mounts to a vertical column and provides a large, easy-to-actuate contact surface for hands-free or low-force door activation. It is commonly installed as part of an exit device or automatic door operator system in commercial and institutional buildings. Electrical contractors and access control technicians are the typical trade professionals who specify and install this type of switch.

This touchbar switch is suited for commercial entryways, corridors, and vestibules where code-compliant exit actuation or automatic door activation is required. The 36-inch bar length accommodates wide columns and high-traffic openings. It is appropriate for use in healthcare facilities, schools, office buildings, and other environments where ADA-compliant hands-free door access is commonly required. Installation typically pairs this switch with an automatic door operator or electric strike system.
