Command Access PD16-CVR 36 628 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Command Access PD15/16 retrofit my existing Kawneer 1686 storefront exit device?
Yes. The PD15/16 motorized latch pullback device is built specifically to retrofit Kawneer 1686/1786 and Jackson 1285/1295 exit devices, using the existing door prep. That is the whole point of the series: you get motorized latch retraction and access control on a storefront door without cutting new prep or replacing the door. It fits 1-3/4 inch doors with a minimum 2 inch stile.
2) What stile width do I need for a motorized storefront exit device on an aluminum door?
The PD15/16 needs a minimum 2 inch stile, which puts it within reach of most narrow stile aluminum storefront doors as well as medium and wide stile openings. Measure the vertical rail on the lock side of the glass: under 2 inches and this device will not mount. Door thickness has to be 1-3/4 inches.
3) Does the PD15/16 come in a rim device or a concealed vertical rod version?
Both. The PD15/16 is ordered as either a rim exit device or a concealed vertical rod device. Pick the rim version for a single door or a pair with a mullion, where the latch throws into a strike on the frame or mullion. Pick the concealed vertical rod version for a pair of doors with no center mullion, since it latches at the head and the threshold with the rods hidden inside the door. Whichever you choose is a separate order option, not a field conversion.
4) What power supply do I need for a Command Access PD15/16 motorized exit device?
Plan for 24-25.3 VDC. Current draw depends on which torque mode the device runs in: standard mode pulls 1.3A peak and 170mA hold, high torque mode pulls 2A peak and 250mA hold. Size the supply off the peak figure for every device on the circuit, not the hold. Wire runs up to 300 feet are supported on 2-conductor 18 AWG, so the supply can live in a central equipment room instead of above the door.
5) Do I have to order the electrified version, or is there a mechanical-only PD15/16?
Both are on the order form. The Motorized Latch Retraction (EU) function is the electrified device with the motor and Smart Module; the Mechanical Device function is the straight push-bar exit device with no power. Both come in rim and concealed vertical rod, in 36 and 48 inch. If you are doing a phased access control rollout, buying the mechanical version now does not get you the motor later, so order EU on any opening that will eventually be on the card reader.
6) Is the Command Access PD15/16 UL Listed for a fire rated storefront door?
UL compliance is an ordering decision on the PD15/16. The device is available with the PD15 UL M Kit for UL-compliant installations in fire and life-safety applications. If your opening is in a fire/life-safety assembly, that kit has to be on the order, since the base device without it is not the UL-compliant configuration.
7) What push bar lengths does the Command Access PD15/16 come in, and what if my door is an odd width?
Two lengths, 36 inch and 48 inch, and both are field-trimmable. Order the length that covers your door width and trim it down on site rather than hunting for an exact match. Both lengths are offered in either rim or concealed vertical rod configuration.
8) When should I use the high torque mode on the PD15/16?
High torque is there for doors that fight the motor: heavy weatherstripping, stack pressure, a closer cranked down, or a slightly racked storefront frame where the latch binds. It draws 2A peak and 250mA hold against the standard mode's 1.3A peak and 170mA hold, so if you set several devices to high torque you need to re-check the power supply budget. Start in standard mode and move up only if retraction is sluggish.
9) Is electric dogging on the PD15/16 rated to stay energized all day?
Yes, the electric dogging is continuous duty rated, so you can hold the latch retracted through business hours and drop it at close. It also auto re-engages if someone pulls the push pad while the device is dogged, which means a tugged bar does not leave the opening in a half state you have to walk out and reset.
10) Is the Command Access PD15/16 Grade 1, and is it suitable for a high traffic commercial entrance?
Grade 1, and built for commercial duty. That is the top ANSI/BHMA durability tier for exit devices, which is what you want on a retail or office entrance cycling all day. For an institutional standardization spec, the PD15/16 is Grade 1 in both the motorized and mechanical configurations.
11) What finishes does the Command Access PD15/16 exit device come in?
Two: 628 Aluminum and 313 Duronatic. Aluminum is the clear anodized look that matches most storefront framing; Duronatic is the dark bronze tone used on bronze-anodized entrances. Both finishes are offered across every configuration, rim and concealed vertical rod, motorized and mechanical, in 36 and 48 inch, so matching the rest of a building's entrances does not limit which device you can order.
12) What is the MM4 Smart Module on the Command Access PD15/16 for?
It is the on-board diagnostics. The MM4 module gives audible feedback so an installer standing at the door can tell whether the device is getting proper power or whether the fault is upstream, rather than pulling the device to meter it. On a retrofit where you are feeding an old storefront from a long run, that is what keeps a power problem from being misdiagnosed as a bad device.
13) How do you adjust the PD15/16 after it is installed without taking the door down?
PTS Push-to-Set handles it: a 5-second electronic adjustment done in place, after the device is mounted. On storefront retrofit work where the frame has settled and the existing prep is not perfectly square, that is what lets you tune latch engagement at the opening instead of pulling the door.
