BEST BEST-CEFBB199-66-626-4.5x4.5 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What size and finish does the BEST CEFBB199-66 electrified hinge come in?
The CEFBB199-66 is sold as a 4.5 x 4.5 inch hinge in 626 satin chrome. That is the standard commercial leaf size for a 1-3/4 inch door, so it drops into typical hollow metal and wood door hinge prep with square corners.
2) How many wires does the BEST CEFBB199-66 concealed conductor hinge carry, and what gauge?
Six conductors: two at 24AWG and four at 28AWG. The heavier 24AWG pair is normally used for the power-consuming device (electric lock or exit device solenoid) and the 28AWG conductors for signal or monitoring runs back to a card reader or access control panel. If your device list needs more than six circuits, you need a different transfer.
3) Where in the door does the electrified hinge have to be installed?
Mount it in the center hinge position. The remaining hinge locations use standard non-electrified hinges, so you order one CEFBB199-66 plus matching standard hinges to fill out the opening. Power is routed through a junction box in the frame.
4) What is the closest equivalent to the BEST CEFBB199-66 if I need the same 6-wire electrified hinge from another maker?
The RCI 952 is the nearest match on wiring: it is an electrified hinge with 6-conductor wiring and ball bearing construction, the same conductor count and bearing type as the CEFBB199-66, which carries 6 wires and ball bearings. The difference is duty level - the RCI 952 is listed as medium duty, while the BEST CEFBB199-66 is a heavy duty hinge.
5) I need more than six conductors through the door - what electrified hinge should I use instead?
Step up to the Detex EWH8, a five knuckle electric hinge in 4.5 inch by 4.5 inch with 8 wires and a satin chrome finish. The BEST CEFBB199-66 carries 6 wires (2 at 24AWG and 4 at 28AWG), so if your access control run needs eight conductors, the EWH8 covers it in the same 4.5 x 4.5 size and five knuckle configuration.
6) Does current still pass when the door is open, or only when it is closed?
Current transmits regardless of door position. The conductor runs through the knuckle, so an electric lock, mag hold-open, or monitored exit device stays powered through the full swing, and there are no exposed wires or exposed electrical parts once it is mortised in.
7) Is this hinge heavy enough for a high-traffic commercial opening?
It is a heavy duty, full mortise, five knuckle ball bearing hinge in brass/bronze, built for commercial service. That is the right class for high-cycle openings like hospital corridors, school entries, and multi-tenant lobbies. For a lighter interior door, a standard weight electrified hinge such as the Design Hardware ETW2-BB5 in 4.5 x 4.5 is the medium duty option.
8) What comes in the box with the BEST electrified hinge?
One hinge per box with the concealed conductor, all machine screws, and installation instructions. What is not included: the junction box, the power supply, and the standard hinges for the remaining leaf positions.
9) What else could I use instead of the BEST CEFBB199-66 if I need more conductors?
For more circuits, the Detex EWH8 Series five knuckle electric hinge in 4.5 x 4.5 satin chrome carries 8 wires. If six conductors is enough, the RCI 952 is a 6-conductor ball bearing electrified hinge, and the Securitron EH Double Duty and SDC PTH Series are other power transfer hinge options. Match the leaf size and finish to the rest of the opening before you swap brands.
10) Will the CEFBB199-66 power an electric mortise lock and an access control reader on the same door?
Yes, that is the intended use. Six conductors let you run the electric lock or exit device on one pair and reader or door position signal on the others back to the panel. The hinge itself is a transfer, not a switch, so the locking logic still lives in your power supply and controller.
11) For a light interior office door that does not see heavy traffic, is there a lighter electrified hinge than the BEST CEFBB199-66?
Yes. The Design Hardware ETW2-BB5 is a 4.5 inch by 4.5 inch electrified standard weight ball bearing hinge rated medium duty, in the BB5 series. It matches the 4.5 x 4.5 size of the BEST CEFBB199-66 and uses ball bearings as well, but the BEST unit is specified heavy duty for higher-traffic commercial openings.
12) Our spec calls out a cycle-rated power transfer hinge - does the BEST CEFBB199-66 meet that, or do I need a different part?
If the drawing requires a published cycle count, look at the SDC PTH Series electrified power transfer hinges, which are rated to 800,000 cycles. The BEST CEFBB199-66 is specified as a heavy duty full mortise ball bearing electrified hinge with a 6-wire concealed conductor and square corners, and is chosen on construction and conductor count rather than a cycle figure.
13) Is the Securitron EH a drop-in substitute for the BEST CEFBB199-66?
Not automatically. The Securitron EH is a double duty electric hinge in the EH series and serves the same purpose of passing current through the door, but the BEST CEFBB199-66 is a full mortise five knuckle ball bearing hinge in 4.5 inch by 4.5 inch with a 6-wire concealed conductor and square corners. Confirm the existing door and frame prep matches the 4.5 x 4.5 square corner mortise cutout and that your conductor count is six before treating them as interchangeable.
14) Is the pin removable for servicing, or is it security pinned?
The CEFBB199-66 uses a permanent fast pin, so the pin is not meant to be pulled. Combined with the concealed conductor it means the hinge cannot be separated or tapped from the hinge side, which is why it gets specified on out-swinging secured doors.
15) I need the electrified hinge to match satin chrome hardware already on the building - which options come in that finish?
The BEST CEFBB199-66 is offered in 626 satin chrome in 4.5 inch by 4.5 inch. The Detex EWH8 is also a 4.5 inch by 4.5 inch electric hinge supplied with a satin chrome finish, so either will sit consistently alongside 626 lever and exit hardware; the Detex unit carries 8 wires versus six on the BEST hinge.
