Kawneer KW037238-29 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Kawneer KW037238-29 electric transfer hinge actually do on an electrified door?
The KW037238-29 carries electrical current through the hinge body, so power reaches electrified hardware on the door leaf without any exposed wiring across the gap between frame and door. It replaces the need for a surface-mounted loop or a visible cable run on Kawneer commercial openings using electrified exit hardware.
2) What hinge size is the Kawneer KW037238-29, and will it drop into a standard commercial frame prep?
It is a 4-1/2 x 4 inch hinge, which is the size Kawneer specifies for standard commercial door frame mounting on these openings. If the leaf prep in your frame and door is cut for a 4-1/2 x 4, the transfer hinge goes into the same pocket as the hinge it replaces.
3) What finish does the Kawneer electric transfer hinge come in?
Black painted, applied so the hinge blends with the surrounding door frame rather than standing out. There is one finish on this part, so if your Kawneer frames are a dark anodized or painted black, it disappears into the opening; on a clear or bronze anodized frame the hinge will read darker than the surround.
4) Is the KW037238-29 a genuine Kawneer part or an aftermarket copy?
It is an authentic Kawneer service part, sold as a direct replacement component for Kawneer door systems. That matters on aluminum storefront work, where frame and door preps are proprietary and an aftermarket hinge often will not line up with the existing machining.
5) Where does an electric transfer hinge get used on a Kawneer opening compared with an electric strike or a power transfer at the head?
An electric transfer hinge is the choice when the powered device travels with the door leaf, an electrified exit device, electrified trim, or a request-to-exit switch. Power moves through the hinge joint as the door swings. An electric strike stays in the frame and powers nothing on the leaf, so it does not solve the same problem. The KW037238-29 handles the leaf side on Kawneer commercial doors and is intended to work with compatible exit device systems.
6) Is this hinge suitable for a residential entry door, or is it commercial only?
Commercial only. The KW037238-29 is classified for commercial applications and is built around Kawneer's commercial door and frame systems with electrified exit hardware. For a house or light residential opening, a standard door loop or a residential-duty electric hinge is the right route.
7) Can I order the KW037238-29 in a different size or finish?
No. The part ships one way: 4-1/2 x 4 inches, black painted. There is no size or finish option to specify when ordering, so if your opening needs a different leaf size you need a different Kawneer part number.
8) Is the KW037238-29 a repair part for an existing door, or something for new construction?
It is catalogued and built as a replacement part, meant to go into an existing Kawneer door hardware assembly as a direct service swap. Typical calls are commercial offices, schools, healthcare egress points, retail, and government buildings running Kawneer doors with electrified exit hardware where the original transfer hinge has failed.
