die‑cast devices for holding doors. They allow control
of doorways in alarm conditions. Typical applications
are in stairways or other exit pathways where it is
desirable to restrict airflow yet allow free emergency
access.

Installation/configuration notes
Mounting Considerations
These door holders are floor‑mounted units, complete
with back box and bracket and all fasteners needed
for standard installation.
Extension rods are available in lengths from 1 in.
(2.5 cm) to 4 in. (10 cm) to allow installation in
applications where the door does not swing to within
3 in. (7.5 cm) of the back box.
Wiring Considerations
Wire the D371B (brass) and D371C (metallic
powder‑coat) door holders through knockouts in the
bottom or the sides of the back boxes. The D371 back
box also has knockouts for conduit installation other
than from the bottom. The terminals accept wires from
12 AWG to 22 AWG (ISO 4 mm
2
to 0.34 mm
2
).
