SECURITRON DK-12 STAND ALONE DIGITAL KEYPAD

Securitron DK12 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Securitron DK-12 keypad work with a maglock or an electric strike, and how does it wire in?
The DK-12 switches the lock through a 5 amp SPDT timed control relay rated 5A at 30V, so it drives either a maglock or an electric strike directly. Because the relay is single-pole double-throw, you pick the contact side that suits the lock: normally-closed for a fail-safe maglock that drops power to release, normally-open for a fail-secure strike that gets power to release. That field-selectable relay wiring is what makes it work with both lock types off the same unit.
2) What power supply do I need for a Securitron DK-12 keypad?
Low voltage AC or DC, at 12 or 24 volts. On DC it draws 100mA at 12 or 24VDC; on AC it pulls 325mA at 12 or 24VAC. Size the supply for the keypad plus whatever lock you are switching, since the lock current runs through the keypad relay and not from the keypad itself.
3) Can the Securitron DK-12 keypad be mounted outside?
Not on its own. The DK-12 is built for indoor use. For an exterior door you add the WCC clear weather cover and the WBB gasketed weather back box, and even then it needs a location that is not directly exposed to rain or snow, such as under a soffit or a covered entry. Fully open weather means a keypad built for it instead, like the SDC 926 Series outdoor keypad. The DK-12 itself is rated -10 to +140F (-23 to +60C), so cold alone is not the limit.
4) How many user codes does the Securitron DK-12 hold, and is that enough for an apartment building?
99 user codes, all programmable from the keypad itself with no software or laptop needed. That covers a small tenant group, a staff door, or a maintenance entry. If you are handing out codes to a large multi-family site or want per-user tracking at scale, look at a higher capacity unit such as the SDC 918 Series with 500 user capacity. The DK-12 is aimed at lower security applications like traffic control, not credential-managed security openings.
5) What is the closest equivalent to the Securitron DK-12 keypad if I need an indoor standalone keypad from another brand?
The ACSI 1355-1 Digital Indoor Keypad and the SDC 918 Series Indoor Digital Access Control Keypad are both standalone indoor digital keypads in the same role as the Securitron DK-12, which supports 99 user codes and drives an electric lock through a 5 Amp SPDT timed relay on 12 or 24 volt AC or DC. The SDC 918 is rated for 500 user capacity, so on a multi-family or office door where you are handing out individual codes to more than 99 people, the 918 covers the larger code list while the DK-12 covers the smaller one.
6) What should I use instead of a Securitron DK-12 on an exterior door that gets direct rain?
The DK-12 is primarily intended for indoor operation; an optional WCC clear weather cover and WBB gasketed weather back box extend it to exterior areas not directly exposed to rain or snow. For an opening that takes direct weather, the SDC 926 Series is an outdoor digital keypad with weather protection and 500 user capacity, and the SDC EntryCheck 920 Series is rated indoor/outdoor. Both are built for the exposed condition rather than adapted to it.
7) I need card credentials as well as a code at the door - is the Securitron DK-12 the right unit?
The DK-12 is a keypad-only unit: 12 illuminated keys, 10 digits plus star and pound, with 99 user codes programmed from the keypad itself. It reads no card or fob. If the site issues credentials as well as PINs, the SDC EntryCheck 920 Series is a digital keypad with a proximity reader, and the SDC EntryCheck 923 Series pairs a proximity reader with a narrow keypad. Choose on whether the access plan is code-only or code plus card.
8) Will a Securitron DK-12 fit on a narrow aluminum storefront stile?
The DK-12 is a single gang stainless steel plate with a plastic backbox, 4-1/2 inches high, and it mounts with simple hand tools. A single gang plate is wider than the face of a typical narrow glass-front stile, so on that opening the SDC EntryCheck 923 Series is the narrow-format keypad in the set, sized for the tight mullion or stile face. Confirm your stile width against the plate before committing either way.
9) What size electrical box does the Securitron DK-12 keypad need?
Single gang. The DK-12 is a one-piece unit with a stainless steel plate and a plastic backbox, and it goes in with simple hand tools. The plate measures 4-1/2 inches on the stated height dimension. If you are surface mounting outdoors under cover, the WBB weather back box takes the place of a recessed box.
10) Can I hold a door unlocked during business hours with the Securitron DK-12?
Yes, that is Passage mode. You put the DK-12 into passage from the keypad to leave the door unlocked for a shift or a delivery window, then take it back out. There is also a Lockout mode that shuts codes off entirely when you need the opening secured against everyone. Both modes are set at the keypad, so a property manager can do it without a technician.
11) Does the Securitron DK-12 keypad have a request-to-exit input for a maglock egress button?
It does. The DK-12 has a REX (Request to Exit) input, so a push-to-exit button, a motion sensor, or an exit device switch on the inside can release the lock through the same keypad relay. That matters on a maglock opening where egress has to be handled electrically rather than mechanically.
12) Should I use a standalone keypad like the Securitron DK-12 or a keypad with a prox reader?
A standalone keypad is the right call when everyone entering can be given a code and you do not want to issue and track credentials, and the DK-12 is a one-piece unit with the controller and relay behind the plate, so there is nothing else to buy or wire up. Go to a combination unit when you need cards or fobs alongside codes, or a card-plus-PIN requirement at a sensitive door. In that case the SDC EntryCheck 920 Series is an indoor/outdoor keypad with a proximity reader, and the 923 Series is the narrow version of the same idea for a mullion or a narrow stile frame where a single gang plate will not sit.
13) What do I need to order along with a Securitron DK-12 keypad to finish the job?
The keypad ships as one piece, so for a plain interior door you need only the DK-12 itself plus a 12 or 24 volt low voltage supply and the lock it controls. Two accessories are ordered separately by part number: WBB, the weather back box, and WCC, the clear weather cover. Order both if the keypad is going anywhere with weather exposure. A REX button or sensor is a separate item as well if the opening needs one.
14) For a low-security traffic control door, is there a simpler alternative to the Securitron DK-12?
The DK-12 is already the plain option for that job - one piece, no separate controller, ideal for lower security applications such as traffic control, with Passage mode to hold the door free and Lockout mode to shut it down. The ACSI 1355-1 Digital Indoor Keypad is the other single-purpose indoor keypad in the set, with no proximity reader to spec or credentials to issue. The keypad-plus-reader units, the SDC 920 and SDC 923, add a credential layer you would not use on a traffic door.
15) If I standardize a facility on one keypad, how do the Securitron DK-12 and the SDC EntryCheck units differ for mixed indoor and outdoor doors?
The DK-12 is a commercial standalone keypad rated from -10 to +140 degrees F, field selectable for fail-safe or fail-secure through its SPDT relay, and primarily intended for indoor use with the WCC cover and WBB back box available for sheltered exterior openings. The SDC EntryCheck 920 Series and SDC 926 Series carry indoor/outdoor and outdoor ratings respectively, so a facility with fully exposed exterior doors may run the DK-12 on interior and covered openings and an outdoor-rated unit where the door is unprotected, rather than forcing one model onto every condition.
16) Is the Securitron DK-12 keypad tough enough for a commercial entry, and can users see the keys at night?
The faceplate is stainless steel over a plastic backbox, and it is a commercial-rated device rather than a residential one. All 12 keys (10 digits plus star and pound) are illuminated, so a code can be entered in a dark vestibule or parking structure. Feedback is a red and green LED pair plus an audible keystroke echo, and a yellow LED prompts you through programming.
