DynaLock ECL-1-EL-626 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Should I order the DynaLock ECL-1 fail-safe or fail-secure?
Fail-safe means the lock unlocks when power drops, which is what egress and stair doors under an access control release normally need. Fail-secure keeps the door locked when power is lost and unlocks only when energized, which is the usual choice for exterior and tenant entry doors where you never want the opening to free up in a power outage. The ECL-1 is built one way or the other at the factory, so pick the configuration on the order. Either way the outside lever is free-turning and the key override works with power off.
2) Can I use the DynaLock ECL-1 on a labeled fire door?
Yes, up to a 3 hour label. The ECL-1 is UL Listed for use on labeled fire doors rated to 3 hours, and the lock itself is ANSI/BHMA Grade 1, which is the heaviest commercial duty rating. That combination is what most institutional and multi-family specs call for on stair and corridor openings.
3) What voltage and current does the DynaLock ECL-1 electrified lock need at the door?
12-24 VAC or VDC input. Current draw is 250mA at 12 VDC and 150mA at 24 VDC, so size the power supply and the door loop conductors on 250mA per lock if you are running 12 volts. Running 24 volts cuts the draw and the voltage drop over a long home run, which matters on doors far from the panel.
4) Will the DynaLock ECL-1 key into my existing Schlage master key system?
The ECL-1 ships with a Schlage C-type keyway as standard, so it drops into a building already keyed in Schlage C without a cylinder swap. Order it keyed different or keyed alike, and if you need it pinned to a specific master or change key, state that keying on the order.
5) Do I need a request-to-exit switch with the DynaLock ECL-1, or can I add one later?
The ECL-1 can be ordered with the request-to-exit monitor switch built in, or without it. If you already own locks without the switch, there is a cylindrical request-to-exit field upgrade kit that adds it in place, so an existing door does not have to be replaced. The RX switch is what tells the access control panel someone turned the inside lever, so alarms are not tripped on legitimate egress. Buildings tying doors into an alarm or audit trail should order it with the switch; a simple electrically controlled opening with no monitoring does not need it.
6) What is the closest equivalent to the DynaLock ECL-1 electrified cylindrical lock from another brand?
The ACSI ACND12DEL is the nearest peer: an ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 electric cylindrical lock with a reversible lever, running on 12VAC/DC. The DynaLock ECL-1 is also an ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 electrified cylindrical lock, and it takes a 12/24 VDC input, so it will run on either 12 or 24 volt power at the door. Both mount in a standard cylindrical bore, so on the strength of grade and lock type they cover the same opening.
7) The opening needs a keyed outside lever, not exit-only trim - which electrified cylindrical lock covers that?
The DynaLock ECL-1 does. It carries a Schlage C-type keyway as standard and can be ordered keyed different or keyed alike, so the outside lever accepts a key for override and can be brought into an existing key system. The ACSI ACND12DEL is an exit-only lock with a reversible lever, so it is built for the free-egress side rather than a keyed entry side.
8) I need fail-secure on a stair door - does the ACSI ACND12DEL work or do I need the DynaLock ECL-1?
The ACSI ACND12DEL is a fail-safe lock, so it releases on power loss. The DynaLock ECL-1 is ordered as either fail-safe (electrically locked) or fail-secure (electrically unlocked), so a stair or perimeter door that must stay secure when power drops is the ECL-1 in its fail-secure configuration. The ECL-1 is also UL Listed for labeled fire doors rated up to 3 hours, which matters on a rated stair enclosure.
9) What is the difference between an electrified cylindrical lock like the DynaLock ECL-1 and a mag lock or electric strike?
The ECL-1 is a bored cylindrical lockset that replaces the existing lock in the door leaf, so the door keeps mechanical latching and a key override, and nothing gets mounted on the frame or the header. An electric strike puts the electrified part in the frame and needs the jamb prepped. A mag lock holds the door with no latch at all and has to be released for egress. On a labeled fire door the ECL-1 is the type that suits, since it latches mechanically and is UL Listed for fire doors to 3 hours. Choose the ECL-1 when you want the opening electrified without touching the frame.
10) Does the DynaLock ECL-1 come with lever trim or do I order that separately?
Standard bent lever trim is included with the ECL-1, so there is no separate trim to specify. The levers use a clutching design, meaning the outside lever spins free when the lock is secured rather than putting torque into the mechanism, which is what stops forced-lever damage on high-traffic openings.
11) What is an alternative to the DynaLock ECL-1 electrified cylindrical lock?
The ACSI ACND12DEL from the 1500 Series is another Grade 1 electric cylindrical lock we carry, in a 12VAC/DC fail-safe, exit-only configuration with a reversible lever. Exit only means it has no outside trim function, so it suits an opening controlled entirely from the egress side. The DynaLock ECL-1 is the one to take if you need both fail-safe and fail-secure as an ordering choice, a Schlage C keyway for keyed override, and a door thickness range up to 2-1/8 inches.
12) Is the DynaLock ECL-1 suitable for a residential door or is it commercial only?
Commercial. The ECL-1 is a Grade 1 electrified lockset intended for commercial openings, and its door thickness range starts at 1-9/16 inches, which is above the 1-3/8 inch leaf common on older residential interior doors. On a 1-3/8 inch door it will not fit.
13) Which electrified cylindrical lock gives me a request-to-exit signal back to the access control panel?
The DynaLock ECL-1 can be ordered with a request-to-exit monitor switch built in, and there is also a request-to-exit monitor switch field upgrade kit for cylindrical locks if the switch is added later. The ACSI ACND12DEL is a Grade 1 electric cylindrical lock in the 1500 Series with a reversible lever; specify the ECL-1 with the REX switch when the panel needs an egress signal from the lock itself.
14) My access control power supply is 24 volt - can I use the ACSI ACND12DEL or should I spec the DynaLock ECL-1?
The ACSI ACND12DEL is a 12VAC/DC lock. The DynaLock ECL-1 accepts 12/24 VDC input and draws 250mA at 12 VDC or 150mA at 24 VDC, so it drops straight onto a 24 volt supply and pulls less current there - useful when several openings share one power supply. Both are Grade 1 electric cylindrical locks otherwise.
15) Is the DynaLock ECL-1 a mortise lock, and what is the difference from the ACSI ACND12DEL?
No - the DynaLock ECL-1 is a cylindrical lock, meaning it installs in a bored hole through the door face rather than a mortise pocket routed into the door edge. The ACSI ACND12DEL is likewise an electric cylindrical lock, so neither one is a substitute for a door already prepped for a mortise body. The ECL-1 fits door thicknesses from 1-9/16 inch to 2-1/8 inch and comes in 626 satin chrome.
16) What finish does the DynaLock ECL-1 come in, and will it match my other door hardware?
626 satin chrome (US26D) is the finish, applied as a plated finish. That is the standard commercial finish across most institutional and multi-family buildings, so it matches the 626 closers, exit devices and cylindrical locks already hanging on the rest of the openings. If your building is standardized on 626, it will read the same on the door.
