Locknetics PPH-100-PL – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Locknetics PPH-100 push plate work as a door opener button for an automatic operator?
That's exactly what the PPH Series is built for. The PPH-100-PL is a large round push plate switch used to actuate assisted and automatic door equipment. The faceplate is stainless steel and the switch behind it is D.P.D.T., so you get two independent sets of contacts, each with a normally open and a normally closed side. That gives you the dry contact an operator's activation input wants, plus a second pole if you also need to signal an access control panel, shunt an alarm, or trigger a maglock release at the same time.
2) What is the difference between the Locknetics PPH-100-PL and the PPH-100-AL?
Only the back box. The PPH-100-PL is the large round push plate supplied with a black box; the PPH-100-AL is the same plate supplied with an aluminum box. Both use the stainless steel faceplate and the same D.P.D.T. switch. Pick on how the box will look where it lands, since a surface installation leaves the box visible.
3) Do I need a push plate with a built-in time delay to hold my door open, or will the PPH-100 do it?
The PPH-100 is a momentary switch, so hold-open timing has to come from the door operator or a separate timer. If you would rather have the delay in the plate itself, the Alarm Controls JP Series is a pneumatic time delay jumbo push plate and the PD Series covers pneumatic time delay vandal resistant plates in PD, PN, PS and PT sizes. On most automatic operator jobs the operator already handles the hold time, and a plain switch like the PPH-100 is the simpler wire.
4) The wall next to my door will not take a push plate box - what actuator can I use instead?
The PPH-100-PL ships as a plate with a black box and the PPH-100-AL with an aluminum box, both intended for wall mounting. Where there is no wall to mount into, the SDC BP Series square bollard posts for access control give you a free-standing 6 inch by 6 inch post, in a BPS6 surface mount at 42 inches or a BPG6 in-ground version at 54 inches, to carry the actuator out at the approach instead.
5) What is the closest equivalent to a Locknetics PPH-100 round push plate from another manufacturer?
The Locknetics PPH-100 is a large round push plate switch, and the nearest round-format peers are the Camden CM-40 Series all-active switch with a 4-1/2 inch round switch and the Camden CM-60 Series all-active switch with a 6 inch round switch. Both Camden series match the round actuator format, and the two sizes let you pick the plate diameter that suits the mounting location.
6) For a vestibule with an interior and exterior door, is a round push plate like the PPH-100 the right actuator?
A PPH-100 is a single large round push plate. For a vestibule where one press needs to act on both leaves, the SDC 480V Series is a vestibule push plate actuator with dual switch activation, built specifically for that function. Use the round PPH-100 where a single opening is being actuated and the 480V where the vestibule sequence is the requirement.
7) Can I get a push plate that transmits wirelessly instead of running wire back to the operator like the PPH-100 does?
The PPH-100 is a wired switch - its D.P.D.T. contacts have to be run to the door operator or control. The Camden CM-60 Series 6 inch round switch is offered wired or with a kinetic wireless transmitter, which is the option to look at when opening the wall or trenching a conduit run is not practical.
8) Does the PPH-100 push plate come with a box, or do I need to buy a separate enclosure?
The box ships with it. The PPH-100 is sold as plate plus box, black on the PL and aluminum on the AL, so you are not sourcing an enclosure separately. What it does not include is the wiring, the power supply, or the operator it actuates. Order those with the automatic operator or the access control side of the job.
9) Can a push plate switch handle a busy entrance like a hospital or school corridor?
The PPH Series is specified for high traffic areas, with a stainless steel faceplate and tamper resistant mounting so the plate cannot be simply unscrewed off the wall by a passerby. It is a commercial grade device, not a residential one. For a facility standardizing across many openings, the same plate in the black box or the aluminum box lets you match different wall and frame finishes without changing switch behavior.
10) What are the alternatives to the Locknetics PPH-100 round push plate?
Round actuators come in a few sizes and switch types. Camden's CM-40 Series is a 4-1/2 inch round all-active switch and the CM-60 Series is a 6 inch round all-active switch, the CM-60 also offered wired or with a kinetic wireless transmitter if you cannot pull wire to the button location. SDC's 480 Series push plate actuators are built from 18 gauge stainless steel. The Locknetics differs in its switch: a D.P.D.T. contact block gives you two poles to work with rather than one.
11) I have a vestibule with two sets of automatic doors. Will one PPH-100 plate operate both?
Only if you wire it that way, and the PPH-100 gives you the means: the D.P.D.T. switch has two separate poles, so one press can send an independent contact to each operator. If you would rather buy a plate purpose built for that sequence, SDC's 480V Series is a vestibule push plate actuator with dual switch activation.
12) What is a comparable stainless steel push plate actuator to the Locknetics PPH Series?
The PPH Series plates are stainless steel switches with an engraved, anodized-finish faceplate. The SDC 480 Series push plate actuators are built with 18 gauge stainless steel construction, making them the closest peer on material and construction for a wall-mounted actuator.
13) Is the SDC 480AA touch panel column a substitute for a PPH-100 push plate?
They are not the same device. The PPH-100 is a large round push plate with a box, mounted at a single point on the wall. The SDC 480AA Series is a 36 inch by 6 inch Ingress-R.E.X touch panel column for ADA compliant access control - a full-height activation column rather than a plate, so it occupies a different footprint and a different reach envelope at the opening.
14) What push plate should I specify for an entrance that takes abuse or vandalism?
The PPH Series is built with tamper resistant mounting and is designed for use in high traffic areas. If the concern is deliberate abuse rather than volume, the Alarm Controls PD Series is a vandal resistant push plate line covering the PD, PN, PS and PT plates. Choose on whether the opening needs traffic durability or a vandal resistant plate specifically.
15) Does the Camden CM-40 do the same job as a Locknetics PPH-100 if I am standardizing round push plates across a building?
Both are round push plate switches for door automation. The PPH-100 comes with its box in a black or aluminum color and carries a stainless steel faceplate with a D.P.D.T. switch; the Camden CM-40 Series is an all-active switch with a 4-1/2 inch round face, meaning the entire plate surface actuates. When standardizing, match on the round diameter you want at every opening and on whether you need D.P.D.T. contacts at the plate.
16) Is there an option that lets someone in a wheelchair activate the door without aiming at a small plate?
A large round plate like the PPH-100 already gives a big target compared to a narrow switch. If you want a taller strike zone that works from a seated or standing approach without hunting for the button, SDC's 480AA Series is a 36 by 6 inch Ingress-R.E.X touch panel column for ADA compliant access control, so any point along the column height activates it.
17) Is the text on the Locknetics push plate printed on, and will it wear off in a busy lobby?
It is engraved into the stainless steel faceplate, not silkscreened, and the plate carries an anodized finish. Engraving is why these hold up where a printed legend would rub away under constant palm and elbow contact.
18) If I want a bigger target for the button than a standard round plate, what are my options?
The PPH-100 is already the large round plate in the PPH Series. Going larger, the Alarm Controls JP Series is a jumbo push plate, and the Camden CM-60 Series is a 6 inch round switch against the Camden CM-40 Series 4-1/2 inch round switch. Larger faces give a wider strike target where users are approaching with a cart, chair or full hands.
