Command Access ETH8W4545626BB79 Electric Hinge 8 Wire

Product Description

The COMMAND ACCESS ETH8W4545626BB79 is an 8-wire electric hinge designed for electrified door hardware applications in commercial and institutional buildings. Measuring 4.5 inches x 4.5 inches, this hinge features a steel base construction and a US26D satin chrome finish, making it suitable for use in standard door frame installations where power transfer through the hinge point is required. It routes low-voltage wiring from the frame side to the door side, enabling operation of electric locks, request-to-exit devices, or other door-mounted electrified hardware without exposed conduit or surface wiring.

This electric hinge is intended for use in commercial door installations where concealed power transfer is required. It is well-suited for access control retrofits and new installations on hollow metal or wood doors with standard 4.5 inches x 4.5 inches hinge cutouts. Licensed locksmiths, door hardware specialists, and access control technicians are the typical installers. The 8-wire configuration supports a range of electrified hardware loads and signaling circuits simultaneously.
