Don-Jo WP4L Frame Frog Wire Pathway for Electrified Door Hardware in Hollow Metal Frames

Don-Jo WP4L Frame Frog Wire Pathway for Electrified Door Hardware in Hollow Metal Frames

The Don-Jo WP4L Frame Frog Wire Pathway is the first backbox specifically designed for electrified door hardware in hollow metal door frames. Engineered with a unique patented shape that forces fish tape down a chosen path with the flick of a finger, this steel-constructed wire pathway simplifies low-voltage wiring runs inside door frames. Designed for use with 1/2" PVC conduit and standard 90-degree sweeps within the doorframe, the WP4L delivers four connection ports for multiple pathway arrangements, making it an essential component for commercial electrified door hardware installations.

Key Features

• Patented Fish Tape Guidance: Unique patented shape forces fish tape down a chosen path with the flick of a finger, dramatically simplifying wire routing inside hollow metal door frames.
• Adjustable Wing Tabs: Adjustable wing tabs allow for anchoring to a variety of door frame depths, ensuring a secure and adaptable fit across different frame profiles.
• Secure Attachment Mechanism: Attachment screw rotates and raises the wing tab behind the frame to lock the unit securely in place without tools or complex procedures.
• Removable Knockouts: Easily removable knockouts provide clearance for door hardware prep welded to the frame, accommodating pre-welded hardware without modification.
