HID 5395-104-01 ThinLine II Reader Cover, Classic, White

It's the cover only, in classic white. There's no electronics behind it, so it won't read cards on its own. Order it when you need to replace a cracked, stained, or mismatched faceplate on a ThinLine II that is already installed and working, or when you want the reader color to match other plates on the wall. If you need a functioning reader, you need the ThinLine II proximity reader itself, base part numbers 5395 or 5398.

The ThinLine II family, base part numbers 5395 and 5398. That's the 125 kHz low profile proximity reader measuring 4.7 x 3.0 x 0.68 inches (11.9 cm x 7.6 cm x 1.7 cm). If the reader on your door is a different HID housing size, this cover won't snap on.

No. The HID 5395-104-01 is the white Classic front cover for a ThinLine II proximity reader - the plastic faceplate only, not a working reader. The SDC IPRW Series is a Wiegand proximity reader with 125 kHz HID compatibility, so it is a complete reader you would mount and wire. If your ThinLine II is cracked or discolored but still reading cards, the 5395-104-01 cover restores the face; if the reader itself is dead, a full reader such as the IPRW is the replacement path.

Yes. The ThinLine II is sized like most standard U.S. switch plates, at 4.7 x 3.0 x 0.68 inches, which is why it's the common choice for mullion-free wall mounting next to a door rather than a door frame mount. The 5395-104-01 white cover keeps that same switch-plate footprint.

No. The cover is cosmetic. Read range stays as specified for the ThinLine II, up to 5.5 inches (14.0 cm), and the reader keeps its existing 5-16 VDC power feed and its Wiegand or Clock-and-Data output. You don't re-terminate anything to change a faceplate.

If the reader itself has failed, one option ZenSupply carries is the SDC IPRW Series Wiegand proximity reader, which is built for 125 kHz HID compatibility, so it reads the same prox credentials your users already carry and lands on a Wiegand input at the panel. Staying with an HID ThinLine II (5395 or 5398) keeps the identical footprint and lets you reuse covers like the 5395-104-01.

The ThinLine II platform the 5395-104-01 cover fits is a 125 kHz low profile proximity reader available with Wiegand or Clock-and-Data interface, running on 5-16 VDC. For added openings, the SDC IPRW Series is a Wiegand proximity reader with 125 kHz HID compatibility, so it speaks the same frequency and Wiegand output to the panel. Confirm your panel input is set for Wiegand rather than Clock-and-Data before mixing the two.

The ThinLine II that the 5395-104-01 Classic white cover belongs to is sized like most standard U.S. switch plates, at 4.7 in x 3.0 in x 0.68 in, which is why it suits narrow mullions and single-gang boxes. The SDC IPRW Series is described as a Wiegand proximity reader with 125 kHz HID compatibility, and its value to you is the reader electronics and HID card compatibility rather than a switch-plate footprint. If mullion width is the constraint, stay on the ThinLine II body and use the 5395-104-01 cover to refresh the face.

It's a commercial-grade access control part, intended for electronic access control openings in offices, schools, healthcare and multi-family. Property managers standardizing a building often order these in quantity so every reader on the campus shows the same classic white face.
