Kawneer KW050901 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the Kawneer KW050901 arm used for?
It's the outswing arm for a Kawneer Low Energy Operator, the linkage between the operator and the door leaf on a power-assisted swing door. It covers a 0 to 4-13/16 inch sweep range and comes in a black finish. It is a genuine Kawneer service part, so it is what you order when you're rebuilding or repairing an existing Kawneer low energy operator rather than building a new opening.
2) Will the KW050901 work on an inswing (pull side) low energy operator?
No. This arm is built with outswing geometry only, for doors that swing away from the operator. Putting it on an inswing application gives you the wrong arm geometry and the door won't travel correctly. For a pull-side door you need the inswing arm assembly for your Kawneer operator instead.
3) What does the 0 to 4-13/16 range on the Kawneer outswing arm actually mean for my opening?
That's the adjustment range the arm accommodates, 0 up to 4-13/16 inches, which is what lets one part number serve several outswing door and frame reveal configurations. Measure the setback between your operator mounting surface and the door face on the existing installation; if it lands inside that range, this arm covers it. Beyond 4-13/16 inches, this is not the right arm.
4) Is the KW050901 an OEM Kawneer part or an aftermarket copy?
OEM. The KW050901 is a genuine Kawneer service part made to Kawneer's own specification, so the mounting holes, arm geometry and operator spindle interface match the original. That matters on low energy operators because a mismatched arm changes the opening force and sweep timing the unit was set up for.
5) Do I get the whole operator arm assembly with KW050901, or just one link?
KW050901 is the outswing arm itself, supplied as a replacement service part for a Kawneer Low Energy Operator. It is not the operator, the header, the control or the actuator. If your service call also calls for a new operator unit, control board, or push plates, those are ordered separately.
6) Can I use the KW050901 on a Stanley, Besam or LCN low energy operator?
No. The arm is machined to interface with Kawneer Low Energy Operators specifically. Low energy operator arms are not interchangeable between manufacturers, since the spindle size, flats and arm length are all brand-specific. For another brand of operator, order that manufacturer's own outswing arm.
7) I manage several buildings with automatic entrance doors. Is the black finish going to match my existing Kawneer operators?
The arm ships in a factory-applied black finish, which is the standard dark finish used across commercial Kawneer entrance hardware. If your existing operator covers and door frames are black or dark bronze anodized, it blends in. On clear anodized or painted white storefront, the black arm will read as a contrast, so if appearance on a main entrance matters, check what finish the arm you're pulling off was.
8) Is this arm rated for a busy commercial entrance or is it light-duty?
It's a commercial part, built for the duty of commercial door hardware, and the typical uses are things like office building entrances, school accessible entries, healthcare low energy operator service, retail automatic outswing doors and municipal ADA-accessible entrances. It is not a residential item.
