Quick Technical Selection Guide
The Command Access 8-Wire Electrified Transfer Hinge | 5 x 4-1/2 is designed to carry compatible low-voltage circuits through the hinge side of an electrified commercial door, keeping the wiring pathway within the prepared door and frame instead of using an exposed surface cord. This model family provides 8 conductors, with selectable factory finishes or preparations shown below. Select by electrical harness, hinge size and mechanical preparation—not by finish alone.
Specification Review: 8-Wire Hinge Installation
Use this 8-conductor electrified transfer hinge as the concealed electrical pathway between a prepared door and frame. Before ordering, match its 5 x 4-1/2 nominal leaf size, electrical conductor arrangement and architectural finish to the project hardware schedule. Select the factory option matching the specified finish and mechanical preparation.
Factory Models in This Listing
- ETH8W5045-652-5SW — 626 Satin Chrome
- ETH8W5045-640-5SW — 613 Oil Rubbed Bronze
Installer and Estimator Checklist
- Mechanical preparation: Verify full-mortise hinge template, leaf width, length, thickness, knuckle style, corner radius, screw locations and door/frame reinforcement. Verify load class and any required listing using the exact SKU.
- Electrical routing: Confirm the factory lead and wire gauges, number of circuits, operating current, voltage drop, and available space for field terminations. Route conductors to protect them during full door swing.
- Compatibility: Identify the electric lockset, exit device, transfer switch or door-monitoring accessories connected through the hinge. Match their terminal requirements to the conductor arrangement; do not substitute a standard-weight or mixed-gauge model by wire count alone.
- Testing: Check hinge alignment, free door movement, wire continuity, insulation condition and device operation with the door in open and closed positions.
Package scope: The selected electrified hinge is supplied as its factory assembly. Locks, access controller, external power supply, wiring beyond the supplied leads and installation labor are not included unless separately specified.
Project Specification and Installer Checkpoints
For the 5 x 4-1/2 8-wire electrified transfer hinge, confirm both the mechanical hinge specification and the electrical circuit layout before selecting a finish. A power-transfer hinge is not interchangeable with a standard butt hinge merely because the leaf dimensions match.
Electrical Design
- Factory conductor configuration: 8 × 28 AWG conductors. Confirm the wiring arrangement of the exact selected SKU against the current product sheet.
- Connected hardware: Identify the electric lock, latch-retraction hardware, door-position switch or monitoring contacts that the cable serves, and map each conductor to a circuit before installation. Reserve conductor capacity for required power and signals.
- Power sizing: Check total running and inrush current, voltage at the device under load, allowable conductor ampacity and maximum cable length using the electrical device and hinge manufacturers' specifications. Do not assume a particular amperage rating from conductor count alone.
- Termination and movement: Plan protected cable routing through prepared door and frame raceways, proper strain relief and termination access. Verify continuity and insulation integrity with the door fully open and closed.
Mechanical Fit and Ordering Requirements
- Hinge template: Verify leaf height and width, hinge thickness, five-knuckle pattern, screw-hole locations, corner style and door/frame mortise; compare the selected part number to the architectural hardware schedule.
- Door construction: Confirm door weight, hinge quantity, opening frequency, intended fire-door listing and any applicable frame reinforcement or manufacturer restrictions. Do not substitute a different hinge load class solely based on appearance.
Commercial Applications and Supplied Scope
For commercial entrance, corridor and other access-controlled openings that require concealed low-voltage transfer from the frame to electrified door hardware. Select the precise factory configuration in the variant menu. This is a power-transfer hinge assembly; the mating lockset, power supply, access controller, door wiring and field installation are separate unless an individual manufacturer package expressly states otherwise.

Choosing the Correct Hinge
- Match the opening: Confirm height, open width, hinge thickness, corner radius, hole pattern and door/frame mortise against the existing hinge or new construction schedule.
- Size the circuit: Calculate the connected lock/trim device's operating and inrush current, voltage drop, required conductors and control contacts. Use the current Command Access electrical ratings for the selected SKU.
- Check the power transfer: Route the factory wiring through the designated hinge and approved door/frame raceways without pinching or stressing the leads through the full swing cycle.
- Coordinate door hardware: Verify electric locks, readers, monitor switches, exit trim, power supply and access controller are electrically compatible before installation.
- Inspect and test: Verify conductor continuity, insulation, mechanical door movement and powered hardware operation after installation. Follow applicable fire-door and egress requirements.
Important model distinction: ETH8W is different from the ETH8WH mixed-gauge design; higher-current devices may require an approved heavier power pair.

626 Satin Chrome | ETH8W5045-652-5SW
The Command Access Technologies ETH8W5045 Electrified Energy Transfer Hinge provides an enclosed pathway for low-voltage electrical wiring from a commercial door frame into the door. This 5" high x 4-1/2" wide, 5-knuckle, standard-weight, full-mortise power-transfer hinge is supplied in 626 / US26D Satin Chrome with a steel-base CH-BB79 chassis. It helps connect compatible electric locksets, door-mounted readers, electric exit trim and monitoring circuits without an exposed cable loop at the hinge edge.
The ETH8W wire configuration contains eight 28 AWG conductors. It is different from the heavy-wire ETH8WH configuration, which contains two 20 AWG power conductors and six 28 AWG conductors. Order this ETH8W5045 model for low-current wiring applications whose actual operating requirements are suitable for its conductor and factory rating.
Features and Benefits

Choosing ETH8W vs. ETH8WH
The ETH8W5045 uses eight 28-gauge wires. It is intended for properly sized low-current power and signal applications and should not be assumed suitable for high-current electric latch-retraction motors solely because it has eight conductors. For openings that require a separate heavier-gauge power pair, consider a manufacturer-approved ETH8WH or another appropriate energy-transfer configuration. Always compare the selected hinge's wire gauge, manufacturer current rating, voltage drop and the powered hardware's peak operating requirements before purchasing.
Typical Commercial Applications
- Low-voltage wiring for compatible electrified mortise or cylindrical locksets
- Electronic exit-device trim and approved low-current door hardware
- Door-mounted card readers or related access-control accessories
- Monitoring circuits and other low-voltage signaling functions
- Electrical connections that need concealed routing at commercial steel or wood doors
This hinge is a wiring pathway; it does not contain a lock, latch motor, controller, relay or separate door-position switch. Actual applications must be within the available wire count and current limits.
Selection and Installation Guidance
- Check hinge size: Measure the existing hinge or approved hardware schedule to confirm 5" high by 4-1/2" wide, not the more common 4-1/2" x 4-1/2" configuration.
- Confirm chassis and finish: Specify CH-BB79 steel base in 626 satin chrome; the supplier's SKU shows finish code 652.
- Verify electrical requirements: Confirm eight 28 AWG conductors are sufficient for the connected device's power and signaling needs. Account for continuous and startup draw, wire length, voltage drop and connector rating.
- Prepare approved wire access: Follow Command Access templates for the hinge-side frame and leaf raceway. Maintain the correct full-mortise hinge preparation and square-corner clearances.
- Install without wire pinching: Protect conductors during hinge installation and ensure the wiring has appropriate strain relief and insulation.
- Test operation: Verify continuity, powered-device function, correct door swing, latch engagement and any exit-device or fire-door requirements throughout the full operating range.
