Command Access CDL-AL – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is a concealed door loop and when would I use one instead of a surface door loop or an electric hinge?
A door loop carries low voltage power from the frame across to a lock on the door leaf. The Command Access CDL is the concealed type: it slides into the door and/or frame so nothing shows when the door is closed, unlike a surface loop that bridges the gap visibly. It is the option to reach for when an electric through-wire hinge (ETH) costs more than the job allows but a surface loop is not acceptable to look at. If you already have an ETH hinge specified and budget is not the issue, the hinge does the same job with no separate part to mortise.
2) Will the Command Access CDL door loop work with a continuous hinge, or only butt hinges?
Both. The CDL is built for continuous hinge and butt hinge openings alike, including full mortise, half mortise, and half surface hinge configurations with standard throw. Multiple mounting locations let you place it where the hinge type and frame profile allow.
3) Can I use a concealed door loop on a door that swings a full 180 degrees?
Yes. The CDL concealed door loop is rated for door swings up to 180 degrees, so it suits openings that lay flat against the wall, such as corridor and equipment room doors where the leaf opens all the way.
4) Do I need to cut the door and frame to install a concealed door loop?
Yes, that is the tradeoff. The CDL's patented design slides into the door and/or frame, which means prep on one or both, unlike a surface loop that screws to the face. Multiple mounting locations are provided so you can pick a spot that clears the hinge and existing lock prep. If the door cannot be machined on site, a surface mounted loop is the practical choice instead.
5) What protects the wire on the Command Access CDL where it crosses the hinge gap?
The transfer uses a 1/4 inch flexible armoured conduit. That armour is what takes the repeated flexing and any pinch at the gap, so the low voltage conductors inside are not the thing absorbing the door cycles.
6) Does the CDL door loop power the lock itself, or do I still need a power supply?
The CDL is a transfer device only. It moves low voltage power from the frame side to the electrified locking device on the leaf, so you still need the power supply and the electrified lock, strike, or exit device it feeds. Plan the loop as one item in the run, not the whole circuit.
7) What finishes does the CDL concealed door loop come in?
Two: aluminum and black, both with a durable coating. Since the loop is concealed when the door is closed, the finish only matters for the portion visible at the hinge edge when the door stands open, so pick whichever disappears against your frame or hinge.
8) Is the Command Access CDL door loop suitable for commercial doors in a school or hospital?
It is a commercial grade product, and Command Access lists it for educational facility electronic locks, healthcare security systems, government and municipal buildings, retail, industrial access points, and multi-tenant residential. Anywhere you are running power to an electrified lock and want the transfer hidden, it applies.
