Command Access MLRK1-YAL6 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Command Access MLRK1-YAL6 kit work on my Yale 6000 series exit device?
That is exactly what the MLRK1-YAL6 is built for. It is a retrofit motorized latch retraction kit made specifically for Yale 6000 series exit devices, and it converts a mechanical device into an electrified one without replacing the device. It covers 36 inch and 48 inch bar lengths, and the 48 inch configuration uses a 6.5 inch filler plate. If your exit device is another manufacturer's, this kit is not the one, since the chassis fit is series specific.
2) What voltage and current do I need to power a motorized latch retraction kit for a Yale 6000 exit device?
Plan the power supply around 24 to 28 VDC. The MLRK1-YAL6 draws 900 mA peak during retraction and 215 mA holding, so size the supply on the inrush number, not the hold number, especially if you are running several openings off one supply. Above 28 VDC the kit shuts itself down to protect the electronics, so do not feed it from an unregulated or higher voltage source.
3) Do I need the REX version of the MLRK1-YAL6, or the standard one?
Two versions are offered: standard, and MLRK1-YAL6-REX with request-to-exit. Order the REX version when your access control system needs a signal that someone pushed the bar from the inside, which is the usual case for shunting a door alarm or logging egress at a monitored opening. If the panel already gets its egress signal elsewhere, or the door is simply unlocked on a schedule with no monitoring, the standard kit does the job. Both are the same latch retraction hardware; REX adds the switch output.
4) Will a latch retraction kit have enough power for a tall vertical rod door?
The MM4S smart module on the MLRK1-YAL6 has dual torque modes, standard and high, and the high setting is there for high-resistance openings including tall vertical rod doors. Doors with heavy weatherstripping, positive pressure, or long rods are where a single-torque kit stalls; here you set the higher mode at install. The module also gives audible feedback and onboard diagnostics, so a stalling or under-powered opening tells you at the door rather than at the panel.
5) Can I electrify an existing Yale 6000 exit device without replacing the whole device?
That is what this kit does. Rather than buying a factory electrified exit device, the MLRK1-YAL6 retrofits into the Yale 6000 series device already on the door and turns it into a 24 to 28 VDC electrified opening. For a property manager or facility with a run of existing Yale 6000 devices, that keeps the hardware, the trim, and the door prep as they are, and the electrical work becomes power to the door plus the transfer.
6) How far can I run wire from the power supply to the latch retraction kit?
Up to 300 feet, using 18 AWG 2-conductor cable. That covers most runs from an electrical room or access control panel to the opening without a local supply at the door. At the device end the kit terminates in a 6 inch cable with Molex quick connectors, so the field splice happens in the transfer, not inside the exit device.
7) Can I use this kit for electric dogging on a Yale 6000 device instead of adding a separate dogging option?
Yes. The MLRK1-YAL6 is continuous duty rated for electric dogging with auto re-engage, so you can hold the latch retracted through business hours and have it drop back in on schedule or on power loss. That is the whole point of a motorized retraction kit over a solenoid pullback: it will sit energized all day without cooking itself.
8) If the latch is not pulling back far enough after install, do I have to take the device apart again?
No. Push-to-Set on the MLRK1-YAL6 lets you adjust retraction about 1/4 inch by holding for two seconds after installation, with no tools and without pulling the bar back off the door. That is the fix when the latch clears but drags, or does not quite clear the strike on a door that has settled.
9) Does a 48 inch Yale 6000 exit device need anything extra with this latch retraction kit?
Yes, a 6.5 inch filler plate is part of the configuration for the supported 36 inch and 48 inch bar lengths, so account for it when you order rather than discovering it on the door. Beyond that you need a 24 to 28 VDC supply sized for the 900 mA peak draw, 18 AWG 2-conductor wire to the opening, and a power transfer through the frame or hinge.
10) Is the MLRK1-YAL6 kit rated for commercial door traffic?
It is a commercial application product, used on office building access control upgrades, schools, healthcare, government buildings, industrial and multi-tenant facilities, and retail. It is not a residential device, and there is no residential-duty version of it.
