The Kidde 1509-AQN5 is a completely flush-mounted electromagnetic door holder built for fire-rated commercial doors. It mounts on a standard single-gang outlet box with concealed wiring, leaving a clean profile that blends into the wall. Multi-voltage operation (24 VAC, 24 VDC, or 120 VAC) means it connects to whatever power source the panel delivers - no external transformer required in most installs.

Built for the commercial installer

Fail-safe design releases the door on power loss, meeting fire code requirements without additional relay logic. The self-contained unit has no moving parts and requires no maintenance after install. UL and ULC listed (R6291) for fire protective signaling systems.
