SDC PTM-2AL – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the SDC PTM power transfer work on a 1-3/4 inch door?
That's the door thickness the PTM Series is built for. It's a single-thickness device rated for 1-3/4 inch doors, so a 1-3/8 inch interior door or a thicker custom leaf is out. If your openings are standard commercial 1-3/4, the mortise prep lines up.
2) PTM-2 or PTM-10 - how many conductors do I need for an electrified lock?
Two models, and the choice comes down to how much you're running through the door. The PTM-2 carries two conductors, enough for power to a single electric strike, mag lock, or electrified device. The PTM-10 carries ten, which is what you want when you're feeding an electrified mortise lock or exit device that also needs monitoring and request-to-exit signal wires back to the frame. Pull spare conductors while the door is open: going back to swap a mortised transfer later means re-prepping the edge of the door.
3) Does a mortise power transfer limit how far the door can swing open?
The PTM Series is built for 180 degree opening, so it won't be the thing that stops the door short. That matters on healthcare and corridor openings where the leaf swings flat back to the wall, and it's a common failure point with cheaper transfer hinges and loops.
4) Mortise power transfer or a surface door loop - which should I use?
A surface loop is faster to install and needs no prep, but it hangs on the face of the opening where it can be grabbed, cut, or vandalized. The PTM mortises into the door and frame and is completely concealed when the door is closed, with a heavy cast housing and steel back box to inhibit tampering. Use the mortised transfer on high-traffic or high-security openings, government, healthcare, education, and multi-tenant lobbies. Use a loop where the opening is low-risk or you can't take material out of the door.
5) Can an SDC PTM power transfer be used on an exterior door?
Yes. The PTM is weather resistant, and the wire transfer itself is a stainless steel tubular mechanism for corrosion resistance. That's the part exposed to the gap between door and frame every time the opening cycles, so stainless is what keeps it working on a perimeter or vestibule door rather than just an interior corridor.
6) What else do I need to order to install an SDC PTM, and does it come with fasteners?
It ships pre-wired with a fastener package covering wood, steel, and aluminum doors and frames, so you're not sourcing screws per substrate. What isn't included is anything on either end of the wire: the electrified lock, strike, or exit device at the door, and the power supply and access control at the frame side. Order those separately and match the conductor count to them.
7) What finishes does the SDC PTM come in, and does it matter if it's hidden?
Aluminum powder coat and dark bronze powder coat, both available on the PTM-2 and the PTM-10. Since the device is concealed with the door closed, the finish only shows on the edge and frame face when the door swings, so most jobs pick to match the frame rather than the lever trim.
8) Is the SDC PTM rated for commercial use or is it a residential part?
Strictly commercial. It's an all-metal, heavy-duty build aimed at high-cycle openings, and the applications SDC calls out are commercial security systems, healthcare, schools, government buildings, and multi-tenant offices. For a house or a light-duty interior door it's more device than the opening needs.
