Don-Jo PT-20-628 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Don-Jo PT-20 power transfer actually do on a door?
The PT-20 carries low voltage wiring from the frame into the door so electrified hardware on the door leaf keeps power as the door swings. That covers electric strikes, magnetic locks and access control devices. Without a transfer device you have no concealed, protected path for the conductors between frame and door.
2) Can I use a power transfer on a fire rated door opening?
Yes. The Don-Jo PT-20 is UL Listed and ULC Listed for use on fire doors, so it can go on a fire rated opening without breaking the label. That is the detail that rules most transfer devices in or out on healthcare, school and government jobs where the opening carries a rating.
3) Will the PT-20 work on a hollow metal door, or do I need a different version for wood?
One part covers both. The PT-20 ships with fasteners for wood and for metal doors and frames, so the same box installs on a hollow metal frame with a hollow metal leaf or on a wood door. No separate wood or metal SKU to pick.
4) What finishes does the Don-Jo PT-20 power transfer come in?
Two: 628 clear anodized aluminum and DU duronodic brown coating. 628 matches the aluminum storefront and anodized frames most electrified openings sit in; DU is the dark bronze tone for bronze anodized frames and oil rubbed bronze trim. Pick to the frame, not the lockset, since the transfer mounts across the hinge edge of the frame and door.
5) Power transfer hinge versus a surface mounted power transfer, which should I use?
They solve the same problem two ways. An electric through-wire hinge puts the conductors inside the hinge barrel, so it replaces a hinge and needs matching hinge prep. The Don-Jo PT-20 is a power transfer unit mortised between the frame and the door edge, so your existing hinges stay as they are and you only prep for the transfer itself. On a retrofit where the hinges are already installed and you do not want to swap them, the PT-20 is the easier path.
6) Do I need anything besides the PT-20 to power an electrified lock on the door?
Yes. The power transfer is only the crossing point at the hinge edge. You still need the power supply feeding the circuit, the wiring run to the frame, and the electrified hardware itself, whether that is an electric strike, a mag lock or an access control device on the leaf. The PT-20 brings its own fasteners for wood or metal, so no separate mounting kit is required for the transfer.
7) I manage a building with several electrified entries. Can I standardize on one power transfer across all of them?
The PT-20 is a reasonable standard for a mixed portfolio because it covers wood and metal doors and frames out of the same package and is UL and ULC Listed for fire doors, so it works on rated stair and corridor openings as well as unrated entries. Order 628 for aluminum and clear anodized frames and DU where the frames are dark bronze.
8) Is the Don-Jo PT-20 rated for commercial traffic or is it a residential part?
Commercial. Don-Jo classes the PT-20 as a commercial product with all-metal construction, which is what you want at a hinge-edge transfer point that flexes on every cycle. Plastic bodied transfers are the ones that fail early on high traffic entries.
