* The simplest and most economical solution for power transfer is Securitron’s surface mounted door cord. this unit is furnished with Securitron’s Touch Sense Bar but may also be purchased separately.
* The cord consists of an 18" (46 cm) length of armored stainless steel cable together with plastic end pieces. 3/8" (9.5 mm) holes are drilled in the face of the door and frame to admit the cord and the end pieces are screwed down over the holes to create a neat, finished appearance.
* The door cord comes furnished with end pieces set in two colors: light gray and black. This allows selection of end pieces color so as to bland into the door/frame color as much as possible.
* The ample 18" cord length allows use of any type of door, including center pivot doors and doors that open well past 90 deg.
* The TSB-C cable has an interior diameter of .25" (6mm) which will support interior wire cables up to .2" (5mm) thick.
