Kawneer KW047142EL – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What pivots does the Kawneer KW047142EL frame reinforcement work with?
The KW047142EL frame reinforcement is made for Kawneer EL pivots, part numbers 050397 and 050398. If the pivot you are replacing carries either of those numbers, this is the matching frame-side reinforcement. For any other Kawneer pivot number, it is not the correct part.
2) What does the .125 wall spec on the KW047142EL mean when I order it?
The .125 refers to the wall thickness the reinforcement is manufactured to, and it is what makes it fit the frame pocket and carry the pivot load. Kawneer builds frame reinforcements in more than one wall spec, so the number is part of the ordering identity, not a nice-to-know. Order KW047142EL only if the .125 wall is what your frame and EL pivot call for.
3) Do I have to replace the whole frame or door to fix a worn pivot mounting point?
No. The KW047142EL exists specifically so you can restore pivot mounting integrity at the frame without pulling the frame or replacing the full hardware set. It is a targeted service part for the reinforcement point behind the EL pivot.
4) Is the Kawneer KW047142EL the pivot itself or just the reinforcement?
It is the frame reinforcement only, the piece that backs up the frame where the pivot fastens. The EL pivots, 050397 and 050398, are separate parts and are not included. If your pivot body is worn, you need to order the pivot as well.
5) Is this an OEM Kawneer part or an aftermarket copy?
It ships as a genuine Kawneer service part, so the dimensions and material match what came out of the frame originally. That matters on aluminum storefront work, where a reinforcement that is slightly off spec will not seat correctly behind the pivot.
6) Can I standardize on this reinforcement across a building full of Kawneer doors?
Only where the openings use EL pivots 050397 or 050398 with a .125 wall frame condition. Kawneer entrance systems were installed with several pivot and reinforcement combinations over the years, so survey the pivot part numbers on your openings before buying KW047142EL in quantity for a whole property.
7) Is the KW047142EL suitable for a high-traffic commercial entrance, or is it a light-duty part?
It is a commercial-duty component, built for aluminum door systems in buildings like schools, hospitals, retail entrances and municipal facilities where the pivot sees constant cycling. It is not a residential part.
