DynaLock DYK1420 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the difference between the DynaLock 1410 and 1420 cabinet locks?
Both are 1400 Series dual voltage cabinet locks, and the 1420 is the one with dual outputs so you can monitor the catch and the locking pin separately. The 1410 is the shorter body at 1-1/4 inch D x 1-3/16 inch W x 2-7/8 inch H; the 1420 measures 1-1/4 inch D x 1-3/16 inch W x 3-11/16 inch L. If your access control panel or monitoring system needs position feedback from the cabinet, order the 1420. If you only need the lock to hold, the 1410 does that in a shorter footprint.
2) Can the DynaLock 1420 be set to unlock on power loss for a fire alarm tie-in?
Yes. The 1420 is field-selectable between fail-safe and fail-secure, so you set it at install rather than ordering a different part number. Fail-safe releases when power drops, which is what you want when the cabinet is tied to a fire alarm or egress release. Fail-secure stays locked with the power off, which is the usual choice for a records or narcotics cabinet where you do not want a power outage opening it.
3) I have no power run to the cabinet - what should I use instead of the DynaLock 1420?
The DynaLock 1420 is an electronic lock that needs a 12 or 24 VDC feed to operate. Where no wire can be pulled, the SDC 295 Series is a battery powered programmable cabinet lock with a 30-user keypad, and the Lockey C170 is a mechanical surface mount keyless digital combination cam cabinet lock that needs no power at all and fits doors 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch thick. Both give keyless entry without a power run; neither provides the 1420's fail-safe or fail-secure release from an access control system.
4) Can I key the cabinets to the same system as the building doors instead of using the DynaLock 1420?
The DynaLock 1420 is an electromechanical lock released by voltage, so it does not accept a cylinder or key. For cabinets that need to fall under a building keying system, the BEST 3L Series is a dead-locking cabinet lock with a 7-pin housing and vertical rim mounting and the BEST 5L Series is a coin box cabinet lock with a 7-pin SFIC core housing, both taking small format interchangeable cores. The Sargent 4142 horizontal cabinet lock uses a 6-pin brass cylinder, and the Sargent 1655 is a 6-pin cabinet lock with field reversible handing.
5) How much force will a DynaLock 1420 cabinet lock hold?
440 lbs of holding force, and it is built as a heavy duty commercial unit rather than an office furniture latch. That is the number to weigh against your application: a records room cabinet, a pharmacy drawer, or a server rack door in a public corridor is where this level of holding force earns its place. For a low-traffic supply cabinet it is more lock than the opening needs.
6) What other electric cabinet locks work like the DynaLock 1420?
The closest peer in the same wiring approach is the SDC 290 Series micro cabinet electric bolt lock, which also runs dual voltage and is meant for the same kind of powered cabinet or drawer. If your cabinet is a server rack and you are tying it into a card access head end, the HES KS200 server cabinet lock uses Wiegand wired access control instead. The 1420 differs from both in that it reports two outputs, catch and locking pin, back to your panel.
7) What do I need besides the DynaLock 1420 to finish the job?
Three things, none of which are the lock itself. A regulated 12 or 24 VDC power supply sized for the current draw, 200 mA per lock at 12 volts or 100 mA at 24 volts. A means of release, whether that is a push button, a reader, or an access control output. And if you are using the dual outputs, wire runs back to whatever is monitoring the catch and the locking pin. The mounting hardware seats through four countersunk holes in the body.
8) Can I use the DynaLock 1420 to monitor whether a cabinet is actually locked?
That is exactly what the 1420 adds over the 1410. Two outputs report back independently, one on the catch and one on the locking pin, so your head end can tell the difference between a cabinet that is closed and a cabinet that is closed and bolted. For facilities auditing access to controlled stock, that distinction is the reason to spec the 1420 rather than a lock that only holds.
9) I need the cabinet lock tied into the access control head end - is the DynaLock 1420 the right choice or should I look at a Wiegand lock?
Both approaches exist. The DynaLock 1420 is switched by the access control system on a 12 or 24 VDC output, wired fail-safe or fail-secure, and returns dual outputs monitoring the catch and the locking pin so the panel can see lock and door position. The HES KS200 server cabinet lock is a Wiegand integrated wired access control lock, meaning the credential reader and the lock are one assembly reporting on a Wiegand interface. The 1420 suits a panel-driven strike output with monitoring; the KS200 suits a reader-at-the-cabinet architecture.
10) I only need a keypad on the cabinet, not a wired lock - what are the options next to the DynaLock 1420?
The DynaLock 1420 has no keypad; it is released by a 12 or 24 VDC input from whatever device controls it. For self-contained keypad entry, the HES KP20 is a stand-alone keypad cabinet lock rated Grade 1, and the SDC 295 Series is a battery powered programmable cabinet lock with a 30-user keypad. The KP20 and 295 manage their own users at the cabinet; the 1420 relies on the system feeding it and reports back through its dual monitoring outputs.
11) We are standardizing cabinet locks across a facility in a dark finish - what does the DynaLock 1420 come in versus the alternatives?
The DynaLock 1420 is supplied in 622 Black Satin (US19). If the standard needs a cylinder-keyed lock instead, the Sargent 1655 is a 6-pin cabinet lock with field reversible handing and the Sargent 4142 is a horizontal cabinet lock with a 6-pin brass cylinder; for interchangeable core standardization, the BEST 3L dead-locking cabinet lock and BEST 5L coin box lock both use 7-pin housings. Choosing among them comes down to whether the facility standard is built on keying or on electric release.
