DynaLock 6825 Series Handicapped Pushplates, Narrow, Alternate Action DPDT

That is exactly what the narrow 6825 is built for. DynaLock's narrow recessed handicapped pushplates are designed for installation in aluminum store front frames and require minimal cut-out and preparation, so you are not hogging out a wide pocket in a narrow stile. If the mounting surface is a wide wall or a mullion where space is not tight, the wider models in the 6705 and 6805 family are the easier fit.

Alternate action means the plate latches: press once and the contacts change state and stay there, press again and they return. DPDT gives you two independent sets of changeover contacts, so you can drop a mag lock and signal an alarm panel or door operator off the same press. Use it where you want the door to stay unlocked until someone presses again, such as a daytime unlock. If you want the door to release only for the duration of the press, order a momentary model instead; DynaLock's momentary versions in this family are all-active operation.

Yes, and that is the reason to pick the DPDT version. Two separate pole sets let one contact set signal the operator while the other breaks the mag lock power, so the lock releases before the door swings. Each set is rated 6 A at 125VAC. Because this model is alternate action, the door will stay in the actuated state until someone presses again, so if you want a timed open-and-reclose cycle, take the signal into your operator's timer or use a momentary model from the same family.

The DynaLock 6825 is a narrow recessed pushplate machined from solid aluminum with a blue engraved handicapped symbol, designed for aluminum storefront frames that need minimal cut-out. If the opening takes a round plate instead, the RCI 950 Series round push plate also carries a handicap symbol and is a momentary switch in satin stainless steel. The difference to weigh is the switching: the 6825 is alternate action DPDT, which latches on one press and releases on the next, while the RCI 950HP is momentary and only makes contact while pressed.

The DynaLock 6825 is a narrow recessed model made for aluminum storefront frames, and it carries a blue engraved handicapped symbol. If you want the same narrow storefront profile without that symbol, the Trine 342 is a narrow style electric door switch. Choose the 6825 when the opening is a designated accessible entrance that needs the symbol on the plate, and the Trine 342 when it is a plain release point.

The DynaLock 6825 is an egress pushplate with a handicapped symbol, intended as a request-to-exit or door operator actuator rather than an emergency release. For an emergency release device, the ACSI 1320-1-MOM-ER is a pushbutton switch marked Emergency Release, and the Securitron EEB is an emergency exit push button with interchangeable LED lenses. Those carry the emergency marking the drawing is asking for; the 6825 does not.

The DynaLock 6825 is the alternate action DPDT model, so a press latches the contacts and the next press releases them. Among comparable devices, the RCI 908 Series electronic exit button with red EXIT text is offered in a maintained version, and the RCI 919 rotary release button in satin aluminum is also maintained. All three hold their state; the difference is the actuator - a narrow engraved plate on the 6825, a button on the RCI 908, and a rotary knob on the RCI 919.

Eight finishes: Satin Aluminum US28 (the standard), Bright Brass US3, Satin Brass US4, Light Bronze US10, Dark Bronze US10B, Medium Bronze US13, Black Satin US19, and Bright Chrome US26. If you are matching existing storefront hardware, the bronze range covers most anodized aluminum entrances, and US28 matches clear anodized. The handicapped symbol is engraved in blue on every one.

It is a heavy duty commercial egress control machined from solid aluminum, not a stamped or plastic-faced plate, and the handicapped symbol is engraved rather than printed so it will not wear off under constant palm and wheelchair contact. DynaLock rates the line for commercial use.

If the opening is a narrow storefront stile, the Trine 342 narrow style electric door switch is the closest alternative in shape. If you have room for a round plate with the handicap symbol, the RCI 950 Series round push plate with handicap symbol is a momentary switch option. For a plain exit button with no handicap symbol, Securitron's PB3 push buttons or the RCI 908 Series electronic exit button with red EXIT text are the usual picks. Note that the RCI 950 and the RCI 908 MA differ in switching behavior from the 6825's alternate action DPDT, so match the switch action to your control circuit.

It is part of the same 6805 Series family of handicapped pushplates, so the solid aluminum construction, the blue engraved handicap symbol, and the finish range are consistent across the line. What differs between models is width (narrow versus standard) and switching configuration. To keep a fleet of doors identical, match both the narrow body and the alternate action DPDT switching, not just the finish.

Only if you want the release restricted. The DynaLock 6825 is a public-facing pushplate with a handicapped symbol, meant to be operated by anyone approaching the door. The ACSI 1310-1 is a mortise keyswitch, which requires a key to actuate and mortises into the frame rather than mounting as a plate. They are not interchangeable for accessible entry - a keyed device removes the barrier-free operation the 6825 plate provides.

They solve the same job from different form factors. The DynaLock 6825 is a narrow pushplate machined from solid aluminum with an engraved handicapped symbol, sized for storefront frame preparation. The Securitron PB3 is a push button rather than a plate, so it takes a button-sized hole and presents a small actuator instead of a large pressable surface. If your specification calls for an accessible-marked plate, the 6825 is the one that carries the symbol; if you only need a release point in a box or narrow mullion, the PB3 covers it.

The DynaLock 6825 is an unlit pushplate finished in satin aluminum as standard, with bronze, black, chrome and brass finishes also offered. For a lit actuator, the Securitron PB4L is an illuminated halo push button with a stainless button, and the Securitron PB5 is a medium round illuminated push button. Those give you a visible target at night; the 6825 gives you the larger engraved accessible plate surface instead.

The DynaLock 6825 is an alternate action DPDT pushplate machined from solid aluminum with a blue engraved handicapped symbol, rated 6 A at 125VAC, and it is offered in eight finishes from satin aluminum through bronzes, black, chrome and brass. The RCI 909F-MO is a flush mount momentary rocker switch rated 250VAC 10A in a beige finish. The 909F is a rocker rather than a plate, it is momentary rather than latching, and it comes in the single beige color, so it suits a back-of-house control point rather than a finished accessible entrance.
