SDC Spacesaver Heavy Duty Right Angle Electric Mortise Bolt Lock with Dual Voltage 12/24VDC

Concealed Electric Locking Solution for High-Security Applications

The SDC Spacesaver 1190 Series delivers revolutionary concealed electric locking with a right angle bolt design that installs with a simple mortise cutout into virtually any standard frame or door lock stile. This specification-grade electric mortise bolt lock features field selectable dual voltage (12/24VDC) operation and a freely rotating stainless steel bolt that resists cutting or prying. The patented Spacesaver design provides enhanced security with clean architectural finish while supporting both fail-safe and fail-secure locking strategies.

SDC 1190AIU – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will an SDC 1190 Spacesaver electric bolt fit a narrow aluminum storefront stile?
That is what the right angle bolt is for. On the 1190 Series the bolt projects at a right angle to the lock body, so the body lies along the frame or stile instead of needing depth behind the bolt, and it goes in with a simple mortise cutout into a standard frame or door lock stile. That is why it shows up on glass storefront and retrofit aluminum frame openings where a conventional mortise bolt has nowhere to sit.
2) Can I use the SDC 1190 bolt lock on a sliding door, or is it swing doors only?
Both. The 1190 Series is bidirectional and works on swinging and sliding door applications, which is the practical difference between a bolt lock and a latch: the bolt drops into a strike rather than depending on a door swinging against a stop.
3) Is the SDC 1190 fail-safe or fail-secure, and do I have to pick one when I order?
Field selectable. The same 1190 unit can be set fail-safe (unlocks on power loss, for egress-critical and most fire-stair-side openings) or fail-secure (stays locked on power loss), so you decide at install rather than at the order desk. Note the ordering options are built around the Fail-Safe model and the WD wood-door model, and the switch options ride on top of that.
4) Does the SDC 1190 need a 12V or a 24V power supply?
Either one. Voltage is field selectable at 12 or 24VDC, so a 1190 bolt drops onto an existing access control power supply without you having to match a fixed coil. If you are standardizing a building on 24VDC, that is what the unit is catalogued at.
5) What is the difference between the standard SDC 1190 and the WD version?
WD is the wood application version of the 1190 Spacesaver bolt. If you are mortising into a wood door or wood frame, that is the one to order; the standard Fail-Safe model is the one used on the metal frame and aluminum stile work the series is built around. Both carry the same bolt and the same switch options.
6) Do I need to add BPS or DPS to an SDC 1190 order, and what is the difference?
Two separate monitoring options, ordered independently, and you can take neither, either, or both. Bolt Position Status (BPS) reports whether the bolt itself is thrown; Door Position Switch (DPS) reports whether the door is closed. If your access control head end has to prove the opening is actually secured (common in healthcare, detention-adjacent, and government work), take BPS, because a closed door is not the same as a locked one. If you only need door-open alarm and forced-door logic, DPS alone covers it. There are eight buildable combinations across the Fail-Safe and WD models with these two switches.
7) Can the SDC 1190 go on a fire rated door?
The 1190 Spacesaver bolt is certified to UL 10C Positive Pressure Fire Tests and complies with ULC-S104 and ULC-S533, so it is usable on rated openings in both US and Canadian jurisdictions. Set it fail-safe where the life safety drawing calls for release on power loss.
8) Will the bolt try to throw while the door is still open?
No, and that is the automatic relock ball switch doing it. The 1190 holds the bolt retracted while the door is open and projects it only once the door closes, so you do not get a bolt hammering the frame edge or a door that will not shut. The switch has field adjustable compensation, which is what you use on an opening with a wide or inconsistent door gap.
9) Can I get into a door with an SDC 1190 if the power and the credential reader are both down?
Only if you specify a version with mechanical override. Mechanical mortise key override is offered on the 1091AIDMR and 1291AHDMR models, not on the base 1190 bolt. On a fail-safe setup the bolt releases when power drops anyway, so the override matters most where you have run the bolt fail-secure and still need a hard key path in.
10) How well does the SDC 1190 bolt hold up against someone attacking it with a hacksaw or a pry bar?
The bolt is stainless steel and freely rotating, which is the specific defense against cutting: a blade cannot bite because the bolt spins under it, and the same construction resists prying. The solenoid behind it is specification grade, built for higher holding force and speed and longer service life than a general purpose unit, which is what a high traffic commercial entry needs.
11) Is a concealed electric bolt the right choice, or should I be looking at a maglock or an electric strike?
Pick the bolt when the opening has to look like nothing was added to it and the lock has to survive attack. The 1190 mortises into the frame or stile and disappears, holds with a stainless bolt in a strike rather than with surface iron, and works on sliding doors where a strike cannot. A maglock is the easier retrofit and needs no door prep, but it is visible and armature plates read poorly on architectural glass fronts. An electric strike is a swing door part and does nothing for a slider. Where you have a narrow aluminum stile and no room for a conventional mortise body, the right angle Spacesaver geometry is the reason this one goes in.
12) Is the SDC 1190 rated for commercial traffic or is it a light duty residential lock?
Commercial, and specification grade. The 1190 Spacesaver is catalogued for commercial use, and SDC builds it around a spec grade solenoid rated for higher holding force and extended service life. It is the part specified on educational, healthcare, and government and municipal openings, which is the traffic profile it is engineered against.
