The Kidde 1505-AQN5 electromagnetic door holder keeps fire doors open during normal traffic and releases them automatically on alarm or power loss. Flush-mounted on a standard single gang box, it runs on 24 VAC, 24 VDC, or 120 VAC - no dedicated transformer needed if you're already pulling one of those voltages to the location.

Built for the commercial installer

Self-contained with no moving parts, the 1505-AQN5 installs directly to a standard 2 x 4 inch single gang outlet box. The shock-absorbing nylon swivel ball on the contact plate adjusts to meet the door at any angle, reducing callbacks from misalignment. Fail-safe operation means the door releases on power loss or fire alarm signal, maintaining NFPA 80 compliance without additional control hardware.
