Doorking 1804-158 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is this a replacement keypad or a complete standalone access control unit?
It is a replacement sub-assembly, not a standalone door controller. You are buying the keypad face and ribbon cable that plug into an existing DoorKing entry system. If you need a self-contained keypad that controls a door lock on its own, look at a standalone unit like the Securitron DK-12 Stand Alone Digital Keypad or the SDC 918 Series indoor keypad with 500 user capacity.
2) Can an SDC or Securitron standalone keypad replace a DoorKing 1804-158 lighted keypad retrofit kit?
No. The DoorKing 1804-158 is a replacement keypad and ribbon cable that mounts inside an existing DoorKing keypad or telephone entry system and connects to that unit's board by ribbon cable. Standalone keypads such as the SDC 918 Series indoor digital access control keypad or the Securitron DK-12 stand alone digital keypad are complete access control units with their own user code storage and relay output, not sub-assemblies for a DoorKing enclosure. Use them when you are replacing the whole keypad station, not when you are servicing a DoorKing entry panel.
3) What should I use instead of the DoorKing 1804-158 keypad kit if the entry panel itself is beyond repair and needs a full outdoor keypad?
The 1804-158 only refreshes the keypad and ribbon cable inside a DoorKing unit, so it will not help if the panel itself is failing. For a weather-exposed opening, the SDC 926 Series is an outdoor digital keypad with weather protection and 500 user capacity, and the SDC EntryCheck 920 Series is an indoor/outdoor digital keypad that also includes a proximity reader if you want to add credentials alongside codes.
4) I need a keypad for a narrow mullion next to a glass door - is the DoorKing 1804-158 the right part?
No. The 1804-158 is sized and wired to drop into an existing DoorKing keypad or telephone entry housing, so its footprint is set by that enclosure. For a narrow mounting surface, the SDC EntryCheck 923 Series is a narrow digital keypad with proximity reader rated for indoor or outdoor access control, which is the form factor intended for mullions and tight jambs.
5) My tenants can't see the entry keypad buttons at night. Does this solve that?
That is the point of this kit. The replacement keypad uses green illuminated buttons, so a gate or lobby station that currently has an unlit pad becomes readable after dark. It is a common fix at multi-family entrances and parking gates with heavy nighttime traffic.
6) I want to add card or fob credentials at the same time as replacing the keypad. Does this kit do that?
No. The 1804-158 is a keypad only, code entry through the buttons, with no proximity reader built in. For an opening where you want both a PIN pad and credentials, a combined unit such as the SDC EntryCheck 920 Series indoor/outdoor keypad with proximity reader, or the narrow-mount SDC 923 Series with proximity reader, covers both in one device.
7) What should I use instead if the keypad is on an exposed exterior wall and not a DoorKing pedestal?
This retrofit kit only goes back into DoorKing equipment, so it is no help on a bare exterior opening. For a weather-exposed door with no DoorKing system behind it, an outdoor-rated standalone keypad such as the SDC 926 Series outdoor digital keypad with weather protection and 500 user capacity is the direction to go. For a protected indoor door, the ACSI 1355-1 digital indoor keypad is a simpler option.
8) Will an SDC 926 outdoor keypad work as a spare for a DoorKing telephone entry system at a gate?
It will not serve as an internal spare. The DoorKing 1804-158 is the OEM keypad and ribbon cable assembly matched to DoorKing keypads and telephone entry systems, and the ribbon connection is what ties it to the DoorKing board. The SDC 926 Series is an outdoor digital keypad with its own weather protection and 500 user capacity, wired as an independent access control point, so it would be an added or replacement station rather than a component swap inside the DoorKing cabinet.
9) Is there a simpler indoor keypad option than the DoorKing 1804-158 for a single interior door?
The 1804-158 is an OEM service part for DoorKing entry systems rather than a door-level control, so for one interior door a self-contained unit is the more direct choice. The ACSI 1355-1 is a digital indoor keypad in the 1355 Series, and the SDC 918 Series is an indoor digital access control keypad with 500 user capacity if you need more code holders.
10) Which keypads add card or fob credentials, and does the DoorKing 1804-158 do that?
The DoorKing 1804-158 is a lighted keypad with illuminated green buttons and a ribbon cable; it is a code-entry keypad assembly only. If the property wants fobs or cards in addition to codes, the SDC EntryCheck 920 Series indoor/outdoor keypad and the SDC EntryCheck 923 Series narrow keypad both integrate a proximity reader in the same housing.
11) Is the DoorKing 1804-158 keypad rated for commercial use?
Yes, it is classed as a commercial-duty part and is used in residential, commercial, and industrial DoorKing entry installations. It is an electronic access control component, so it needs the host DoorKing board powered and working.
12) Is the 1804-158 an OEM DoorKing part or an aftermarket copy?
Genuine DoorKing. It is the manufacturer's own replacement keypad assembly, which is why the ribbon cable terminates correctly at the DoorKing board rather than needing splicing or an adapter.
