DynaLock 6125A Two Pushbuttons, 1 Gang, Alternate-Action SPDT, 6000 Series - Pushbuttons

Alternate-action means each button latches: press once and the contacts stay transferred, press again and they return. That's what you want for a door you need to hold unlocked for a period, such as unlocking a vestibule during business hours or holding a mag lock released for deliveries. If you want the door to release only while the button is held, you need a momentary switch instead, like the RCI 908 Series exit button or the Securitron PB3 Series. The 6125A puts two of these alternate-action switches in a single gang, so one plate can control two separate functions or two doors.

Yes. Each button is SPDT as standard, and you can order an additional set of SPDT contacts per button. That second contact set gives you an independent dry circuit off the same press, which is how integrators shunt an alarm zone or signal an access panel while the first set drops power to the mag lock or strike. Because the contacts are SPDT you get both normally open and normally closed poles on each set.

No. The 6125A is a request-to-exit control with two alternate-action SPDT pushbuttons, meant for routine release and unlock-hold functions. For a dedicated emergency release you want a purpose-marked device: the ACSI 1320-1-MOM-ER is a pushbutton switch marked "Emergency Release," and the Securitron EEB emergency exit push button with interchangeable LED lenses is the other common choice. Local code for your facility type governs which is required, so confirm with the authority having jurisdiction on an egress door.

The 6125A is a two-button gang-plate request-to-exit control, not an accessibility actuator. For a handicap-marked actuator, the RCI 950HP is a round push plate carrying the handicap symbol with momentary switching in satin stainless steel. Note the 950HP is momentary, while the 6125A buttons are alternate-action SPDT, which latch state on each press.

Standard finish on the 6125A is brushed stainless steel, US32D, which is the common satin stainless used across commercial door hardware, so it sits alongside satin stainless push plates, exit devices and levers without looking off. Standard button color is green. Among comparable switches, the RCI 950 Series round push plate is also satin stainless, while the RCI 919 Series rotary release comes in satin aluminum and the RCI 909F flush rocker in beige, so those two won't match a stainless opening.

No, the 6125A is a pushbutton-only device, both buttons are alternate-action SPDT and anyone can press them. If you need authorized release only, use a keyswitch: the ACSI 1310-1 mortise keyswitch is the option for that, mortised into the frame or wall so only a keyholder can transfer the contacts.

The 6125A uses alternate-action SPDT switching, so each press changes and holds state. Among other release devices, the RCI 908 Series button with red EXIT text and the RCI 919 Series rotary release button in satin aluminum are both maintained operation. Momentary devices such as the RCI 950HP push plate and the RCI 909F flush mount rocker switch return on release instead.

No. The ACSI 1310-1 is a mortise keyswitch in the 1300 Series, so it requires a key to operate and mortises into the frame or door. The DynaLock 6125A is a surface gang-plate pushbutton control with two alternate-action SPDT buttons that anyone at the door can press. Choose the keyswitch where operation must be restricted to keyholders, and the 6125A where free egress or staff release is wanted.

An anti-tamper switch is available as an option on the 6125A, which is the selection to take in a public or semi-public location where someone may try to defeat the plate. Pair it with the stainless faceplate and the button-level LED or illuminated options for monitored status. The device is commercial-rated hardware, not a residential product.
