Kawneer KW050397-40 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Kawneer KW050397-40 pivot handed, and can I use it on a left-hand door?
The KW050397-40 is built right-handed only. A left-hand opening needs the left-hand version of the pivot instead. Handing on an intermediate pivot with a power transfer is not field-reversible, since the wire routing geometry is set at the factory, so get the door hand confirmed before you order.
2) How many wires will the Kawneer KW050397-40 intermediate pivot carry through the door?
Four. The offset power transfer routes four conductors through the pivot point, which covers the usual electric latch retraction or request-to-exit and monitoring runs on an electrified exit device. If your access control design needs more than four conductors through the door edge, this pivot will not carry them.
3) Will the KW050397-40 pivot match my existing Kawneer entrance doors?
It is a genuine Kawneer service part made to Kawneer's own specifications, so it is intended as a direct replacement inside existing Kawneer door systems. It is not a universal pivot for other aluminum door lines. Match it against the pivot already in the door, including the hand and the offset transfer, rather than assuming any Kawneer pivot will drop in.
4) What does an intermediate pivot with power transfer actually do on an aluminum storefront door?
Two jobs at once. Mechanically it is an intermediate pivot point that carries the door and lets it rotate smoothly. Electrically it moves four wires from the frame into the door leaf through the pivot, so there is no exposed cable loop or surface door cord between door and frame. On an electrified exit device that concealed transfer is what feeds power to the latch retraction or monitoring circuit.
5) Do I need anything besides the pivot to finish an electrified exit device door?
The pivot handles the transfer point only. You still need the electrified exit device itself, the power supply, the wire run in the frame, and whatever access control or monitoring device is driving the four conductors. This part is sold as a replacement component, so it does not arrive as a complete electrified opening kit.
6) I have a pair of doors on Kawneer framing. Do I order one KW050397-40 or two?
One per leaf, and each leaf needs the pivot matching its own hand. The KW050397-40 is right-handed, so on a pair only the right-hand leaf takes this part. The other leaf needs the opposite-hand pivot. Order them as two separate items, and only for the leaves that actually carry electrified hardware.
7) Is the Kawneer KW050397-40 rated for high-traffic commercial entrances, or is it a light-duty part?
It is a commercial part, not a residential one, and it is built for commercial openings where the pivot is cycled hard and the electrical transfer has to keep working. That makes it appropriate for office building entrances, schools, healthcare doors on access control, and municipal buildings running Kawneer framing.
8) What finish is the KW050397-40 pivot, and will it blend with bronze storefront framing?
Dark Bronze, applied at the factory, which is the standard companion finish to dark bronze anodized aluminum entrance framing. If your other openings are clear anodized or black, the exposed portion of this pivot will read bronze against them.
