Kawneer KW037238-17 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What size is the Kawneer KW037238-17 electric transfer hinge?
The KW037238-17 is a 4-1/2 x 4 inch electric transfer hinge. That is the hinge leaf size to match against the existing frame and door prep before ordering, since a transfer hinge has to drop into the same mortise the mechanical hinge came out of.
2) What does an electric transfer hinge actually do on an electrified door?
It carries low voltage wiring from the frame into the door through the hinge point, so power reaches electrified exit hardware or an electric latch retraction device without any exposed cable loop across the gap. The KW037238-17 does that job while serving as a hinge, so you are not adding a separate door loop or electric power transfer plate.
3) I am replacing a failed power transfer on a Kawneer door. Is this the same part?
If the opening was originally built with a 4-1/2 x 4 Kawneer electric transfer hinge, KW037238-17 is the direct service replacement in clear aluminum. Pull the old hinge and check both the leaf size and the finish; a different leaf size means a different prep and this one will not drop in.
4) Is the KW037238-17 a genuine Kawneer part or an aftermarket copy?
It is a genuine Kawneer service part, sold as an authorized replacement component. If you are servicing a Kawneer aluminum entrance and the spec calls for the factory transfer hinge, this is the same part number the original assembly used.
5) What finish does the Kawneer transfer hinge come in, and will it match my storefront frame?
Clear aluminum, painted to blend with the frame. On a standard clear anodized Kawneer storefront it disappears into the opening. If your frame is dark bronze or a painted custom color, the clear aluminum version will read differently and you would want the finish that matches your existing frame instead.
6) Can I use the KW037238-17 to power an electric latch retraction exit device?
That is the intended use. The part is catalogued as an exit device component and is meant to integrate with electrified exit device assemblies, feeding current through the hinge rather than through a surface cord. Confirm the conductor count your device draws matches what you are pulling through the opening.
7) Is this transfer hinge rated for commercial use or is it a light duty residential part?
It is a commercial part, built for high use openings. Typical placements are office buildings, schools, hospitals, retail, and government facilities running access control on electrified exit hardware.
