BEST BEST-CECSFBB199-56LH-613-4.5x4.5 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the BEST CECSFBB199-56 electrified hinge need to be ordered by hand?
Yes. The CECSFBB199-56 is handed, and it ships as either a left-hand or right-hand hinge in 4-1/2 x 4-1/2 inch size. Determine the swing at the opening before ordering, because the concealed switch and conductor are built into one side of the leaf and a wrong-hand hinge cannot be flipped in the field.
2) What does the concealed switch in this electrified hinge actually do?
It is a single pole double throw switch that changes state as the door opens and closes, so you can use the hinge itself as the door position monitor to trigger alarms, monitoring panels, or other security equipment. That saves cutting in a separate door contact, and because the switch is inside the hinge there is nothing exposed to defeat.
3) Is 6 wires enough for an electric strike plus a monitored door contact?
The CECSFBB199-56 carries a 6-wire concealed conductor in addition to the built-in switch, so you have conductors for a powered device such as an electric lock or strike and spare pairs for signaling or monitoring on the same hinge. If your design needs more conductors, the Detex EWH8 Series five-knuckle electric hinge is an 8-wire version in the same 4-1/2 x 4-1/2 inch size.
4) Is this hinge heavy enough for a high-traffic exterior or institutional door?
It is rated heavy duty for commercial use, with ball bearing knuckles for a door that cycles constantly. That is the class you want on a heavy exterior leaf, an aluminum-and-glass entry, or a hospital corridor door. Lighter openings can use a standard weight electrified hinge such as the Design Hardware ETW2-BB5, which is a medium duty 4-1/2 x 4-1/2 inch ball bearing unit.
5) What is the closest 6-wire electrified hinge alternative to the BEST CECSFBB199-56?
The RCI 952 electrified hinge is the nearest match on wiring count and bearing type: it carries 6-conductor wiring and ball bearing construction, the same 6-wire, ball bearing arrangement the CECSFBB199-56 uses. The difference is duty level - the RCI 952 is a medium duty hinge, while the CECSFBB199-56 is heavy duty. On a high-traffic commercial opening, stay with the heavy duty hinge; on a lighter interior door the medium duty 6-conductor hinge covers the same wiring need.
6) I need more than six conductors through the hinge - what should I use instead of the CECSFBB199-56?
The CECSFBB199-56 carries 6 wires. If your access control device stack needs additional conductors, the Detex EWH8 five knuckle electric hinge in 4.5 inch by 4.5 inch is an 8-wire hinge, so it gives you two more conductors through the same size hinge footprint. Note the Detex is offered in a satin chrome finish, where the CECSFBB199-56 comes in 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, so confirm which finish the rest of the opening needs.
7) Is there a lighter, standard weight electrified hinge if heavy duty is more than my door needs?
Yes. The Design Hardware ETW2-BB5 is a 4.5 inch by 4.5 inch electrified standard weight ball bearing hinge rated medium duty, which suits lighter interior leaves where the heavy duty CECSFBB199-56 would be more hinge than the opening calls for. Both use ball bearing knuckles and the same 4.5 by 4.5 size, so frame prep stays familiar. What you give up going lighter is the heavy duty rating and the concealed switch that ships with the CECSFBB199-56 for door open and closed monitoring.
8) If I only need power transferred to the door and not door position monitoring, what is a simpler option than the CECSFBB199-56?
Look at the SDC PTH Series electrified power transfer hinges, which are built to pass power to door-mounted devices and carry an 800,000 cycle rating. The CECSFBB199-56 does more than transfer power: it includes a concealed switch, a single pole double throw switch that operates as the door opens or closes for alarms and monitoring devices. If a separate door contact already handles position monitoring, a straight power transfer hinge covers the electrical run without duplicating that switch.
9) Where in the door does the electrified hinge get installed?
Put it in the center hinge position of the opening, not top or bottom. The center location keeps the wire loop out of the way and shortens the run into the frame. It is a full mortise hinge, so both leaves mortise into the door and frame using the manufacturer template for the hole and mortise layout.
10) What comes in the box, and what do I still have to supply?
The hinge ships with the concealed conductor and concealed switch built in, plus mounting screws and installation instructions. Power supply, the locking device itself, and the wire run from the frame into the raceway are separate. You will also want the frame-side wire transfer path prepared before the hinge goes in.
11) Should I use an electrified hinge or a separate power transfer device for a monitored access control door?
An electrified hinge is the choice when you want the power path and the door position signal handled in one part with nothing exposed at the hinge edge. The CECSFBB199-56 combines a 6-wire conductor with a built-in SPDT door position switch, so it covers both jobs in one mortise. Use a dedicated power transfer loop instead when the conductor count is high or the hinge prep is not available; power transfer hinge options we carry include the SDC PTH Series, rated for 800,000 cycles.
12) Is the Securitron EH electric hinge a direct substitute for the BEST CECSFBB199-56?
Treat it as an alternative rather than a drop-in. The Securitron EH is a double duty electric hinge from the EH series and will move power through the opening, but the CECSFBB199-56 is defined by a specific combination: heavy duty, five knuckle full mortise with square corners, ball bearing, 6 wires, and a concealed conductor plus concealed switch in the box. Before substituting, confirm the conductor count your devices need and whether the job requires the integral switch, since those are the two things most likely to differ.
13) For a high-cycle door, how does the CECSFBB199-56 compare to the SDC PTH hinge?
The SDC PTH Series publishes an 800,000 cycle rating, which is the figure to quote when a spec calls out cycles. The CECSFBB199-56 answers high traffic differently, through its heavy duty rating and ball bearing knuckles for smooth operation and extended service life in high-traffic commercial use. If the drawing states a cycle count, the PTH gives you a number to match; if the drawing calls for a heavy duty ball bearing electrified hinge with an integral switch, the CECSFBB199-56 is the closer fit.
14) What finish does this BEST electrified hinge come in?
One finish: 613, satin bronze dark oxidized oil rubbed. If your other openings are chrome or brushed stainless, the hinge will not match. A satin chrome alternative in the same 4-1/2 x 4-1/2 inch size is the Detex EWH8 Series electric hinge.
15) Is there any exposed wiring at the hinge once it is installed?
No. Both the conductors and the switch run inside the hinge, and no electrical parts are exposed when the hinge is mortised in properly. That is what makes it usable on the secure side of an access controlled opening where a surface wire loop would be a tamper target.
