LCN SEM7830-689 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the LCN SEM7830 door holder release the door when the fire alarm goes off?
That's exactly how it works. The SEM7830 is a fail-safe electromagnet: it holds the door open while it has power, and the moment the alarm panel cuts current to it, the magnet drops the armature and the door is free to close. Power has to be interrupted for release, so it needs to be wired to a circuit the fire alarm system controls, not a switched wall outlet. It's UL listed for metal smoke barrier and labeled fire doors and certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.15.
2) What voltage do I need to run an LCN SEM7830 electromagnetic door holder?
Any of three. The SEM7830 is tri-voltage, 12V, 24V or 120V, so one part number covers a low-voltage run off the fire panel or a 120V line-voltage circuit. That matters on retrofits where you don't know yet what the building gives you at the wall, and on multi-building standardization where you'd otherwise stock three different holders.
3) How far off the wall does the LCN SEM7830 hold the door open?
The SEM7830 has a 6-3/4 inch projection, so the magnet face sits 6-3/4 inches out from the wall surface it's mounted on. Measure from your finished wall to where the door leaf lands when open, and that gap has to be 6-3/4 inches for the armature to meet the magnet squarely. If the door swings back further than that, you need an armature extension rather than this holder alone.
4) Should I use a wall-mounted magnetic door holder or a closer with a built-in hold-open?
Two different tools. A wall magnet like the SEM7830 is the right call when the door has to release on alarm, because the magnet is wired into the fire alarm circuit and drops the door the instant power is cut. A mechanical hold-open arm on a closer does not release on alarm and cannot be used on a labeled fire door or smoke barrier. If the opening is fire rated or a smoke barrier, you want the electromagnetic holder. If it's a non-rated door you just want propped open, a hold-open arm is simpler and needs no wiring.
5) Can the LCN SEM7830 be used on a pocket door?
Yes. The SEM7830 is suited to pocket door installations, and where the reach comes up short an armature extension is available to close the gap. The magnet itself still mounts to the wall surface, so you need a solid, plumb wall face at the hold-open position.
6) What comes in the box with an LCN SEM7830, and what else do I need to order?
The SEM7830 ships with a fastener pack containing both wood and machine screws, so the magnet body can go into either wood blocking or a tapped metal substrate. You supply the door-side armature mounting into the leaf, the wiring and the connection to the fire alarm circuit, and an armature extension if the door doesn't reach the 6-3/4 inch projection. It's a wall-mount unit only, not a floor mount.
7) Does the LCN SEM7830 meet ADA and Buy American requirements for a government job?
Both are covered. The SEM7830 is ADA compliant and BAA qualified, which is what a federal, state or municipal spec typically asks for on door control hardware. Pair that with the ANSI/BHMA A156.15 certification and the UL listing for labeled fire doors and it covers the usual three lines on an institutional submittal.
8) What finishes does the LCN SEM7830 door holder come in?
Two: 689 aluminum and 695 dark bronze, both powder coat over a die-cast housing. 689 is the default across most commercial door control hardware, so it's the one that matches existing closers and holders in a typical facility; 695 is the pick when the trim package is dark bronze. Powder coat on die-cast holds up in corridor traffic where the unit gets bumped.
9) Can I close the door manually while the SEM7830 magnet still has power?
No, not without pulling against the magnet. The SEM7830 holds until current is interrupted, so under normal power the door stays put; once the alarm cuts the circuit the door closes manually and stays free until power is restored. If staff need to release the door at will without an alarm event, the circuit has to include a manual release switch, which is a wiring decision on your end.
10) Is the LCN SEM7830 rated for exterior doors?
It's specified for interior doors, and the applications it's built for are interior ones: smoke barrier and cross-corridor openings in healthcare, schools, multi-tenant residential and government buildings. For an exterior opening, look to a holder rated for that exposure instead of this one.
