Securitron EPT Electrical Power Transfer

This unique, patented device is manufactured by Abloy, Securitron’s sister company. The EPT is suitable for most doors; When compared to the electric hinge, the EPT series is more economical to purchase, but does require more labor for installation (a long slot must be routed in the door edge). A particular advantage of the EPT is that it accepts a thick cable and protects it within a flexible steel shield. The interior diameter of the shield is a generous 5/16” (8mm) which will support interior wire cables up to .25” (6mm) thick. This means that the EPT is suitable for applications where relatively large current is required (such as operating many brands of electric mortis locks). The EPT is also a near universal device as it will work on any sort of door hung with butt hinges, continuous hinge or pivots. It will not function on a center pivot door as the gap between the door and frame edges becomes too great when the door opens.
