ABH ABH-2300-US28 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What voltage does the ABH 2300 door holder run on, and do I have to order a specific one?
One part covers all three. The 2300 is tri-voltage, running on 12V DC, 24V AC/DC, or 120V AC, so you pick the voltage at install rather than at the order form. For a property manager or MRO buyer standardizing across a building, it means one holder on the shelf regardless of whether the opening is fed from a 24V fire alarm panel or line voltage.
2) How far does the ABH 2300 wall mount holder stick out from the wall, and will it reach my door?
Total projection is 4-5/8 inches from the wall to the face of the door, and a 1 inch extension is included in the box. If your door swings back further than that from the wall, ABH offers optional extension rods that fill the gap between the magnet and the door armature with no special adapter piece. Measure from the finished wall to the door face in the full open position before ordering; that number is what decides whether you need extra rod.
3) What do I need besides the ABH 2300 magnet to hold a fire door open on the alarm system?
The holder is only the hold-open half. The opening also needs a door closer to actually shut the door once the magnet drops, and the magnet circuit has to be powered from a source the fire alarm system drops on activation, typically a 24V panel output or a relay on a 120V feed. The 2300 takes 12V DC, 24V AC/DC, or 120V AC, so it wires to whichever of those the panel gives you. The 1 inch extension is in the box; extension rods for a longer gap are ordered separately.
4) What is the difference between a wall mount electromagnetic door holder and a floor mount one?
A wall mount unit like the ABH 2300 puts the magnet on the wall behind the open door and the armature on the door face, with 4-5/8 inches of total projection. It is the right pick when there is solid wall backing behind the door swing at magnet height. A floor mount holder is what you use when the door opens into a glazed wall, a corridor with no backing, or against a wall that is out of reach of the door face. If the door opens past a doorway or into open space, the wall mount has nothing to attach to and you want the floor mount version instead.
5) Does the door have to line up perfectly with the ABH 2300 magnet for it to hold?
The armature has a dual pivot design, two pivot points with 360 degree mobility each, so it self-aligns to the magnet face rather than needing the door and wall to be dead parallel. That tolerance is what saves time on existing openings where the wall is out of plumb or the door has settled. Get the height and projection right and the pivots take up the rest.
6) The door sticks to the ABH 2300 magnet after the power drops. Is that normal?
Residual magnetism is a known behavior on hold-open magnets, and the 2300 has a positive release function with a built-in release button to clear it. Press the button and the armature lets go. It is also the button you use to manually release the door during a walkthrough or a drill without cutting power to the circuit.
7) Does the ABH 2300 electromagnetic door holder meet Buy American requirements for a government job?
The 2300 Series is BAA qualified, which is the box a federal, GSA, or federally funded institutional project needs checked on the submittal. That plus the UL/ULC fire door listing usually covers what a government or healthcare spec asks of a hold-open magnet.
8) What finishes does the ABH 2300 door holder come in?
Eight finishes: painted aluminum, painted brass, painted bronze, painted black, painted dark bronze, satin aluminum, bright stainless steel, and satin stainless steel. Painted aluminum and painted black are the usual pick when the holder should disappear against the wall; the two stainless options are what to match to stainless push plates and closers in a healthcare or institutional corridor, and painted dark bronze matches dark anodized aluminum storefront trim.
9) Are there plastic parts on the ABH 2300 that will break in a high-traffic building?
No plastic on it. The 2300 is all-metal construction, magnet housing and armature both. On a school or hospital corridor door that gets kicked, cart-struck, and held daily, that is the difference between a housing that scuffs and one that cracks.
