Cut the Core Drilling: SDC WPT Wireless Power Transfer Device Makes Retrofits Easy

Messing with door cores is one of the biggest headaches for security dealers retrofitting electrified hardware—especially when dealing with wood or fire-rated doors. Fortunately, the SDC WPT Wireless Power Transfer Device solves that problem by delivering power and data across the door gap without any moving parts, wires, or core drilling.

Ideal for both retrofit and new construction, this RF-powered solution simplifies installations, minimizes vandal-prone wiring, and keeps projects on schedule. Whether you’re updating an older access control system or installing electric locks on a wood or steel door, the SDC WPT gives you the power—literally—to get the job done cleanly and compliantly.

Key Product Features

  • Wireless RF power transfer—no door core drilling required
  • Compatible with steel and wood doors
  • Transfers both energy and data (REX, DPS, latch status)
  • Visual LED status indicator
  • Field-selectable dual voltage output (12VDC or 24VDC)
  • Up to 1/4” (7mm) door gap tolerance
  • Flexible mounting on latch, hinge, or top frame
  • No moving parts or exposed wires—zero wear points
  • Adjustable unlock trigger (1–90 seconds)
  • Includes fixed 4-second unlock trigger for standard REX

Use Cases & Dealer Benefits

The WPT is a retrofit-friendly, code-compliant solution designed for:

  • Failsecure Electrified Locks and Latches: Power mortise, cylindrical, or rim locks without wiring hassles.
  • High-Traffic Doors: Reduce wear and tear from wire loops and moving parts.
  • Historic and Finished Doors: Maintain door aesthetics without compromising functionality.
  • Healthcare and Schools: Perfect for touchless entry installations using wave-to-open sensors.
  • Compliance Upgrades: Ideal for projects needing to meet UL fire and burglary ratings.

Why Dealers Love It:

  • No Core Drilling = Faster Installs: Save labor and avoid damaging fire-rated or wood doors.
  • Reduced Callbacks: No wires to break or degrade over time.
  • More Tolerant Alignment: Easier to install than inductive wireless devices.
  • Upsell Opportunity: Bundle with electrified locksets, exit devices, and wave-to-open switches.
  • Profitable Retrofits: Unlock more margin on existing door openings where wiring is difficult.

Technical Summary

  • Power Input (Frame Side): 600 mA @ 24 VDC
  • Power Output (Door Side):
    • 600 mA @ 12 VDC
    • 300 mA @ 24 VDC

  • Dry Inputs:
    • (1) 4-second fixed unlock trigger
    • (1) 1–90 second adjustable unlock timer
  • Dry Outputs (Frame Side):
    • (2) SPDT, 1A @ 30 VDC resistive
    • (2) SPST-NO, 100 mA @ 60 VDC resistive
  • Environmental Rating: -4°F to 140°F
  • Weight: 1 lb
  • Certifications:
    • UL 10C Positive Pressure Fire Tests
    • UL 1034 Burglary-Resistant Locking Mechanisms

Note: For use with failsecure (power-to-unlock) locks only. Not compatible with failsafe or continuously dogged locks.

How the SDC WPT Works

Unlike inductive systems that require precise coil alignment, the WPT uses RF energy, which:

  • Transmits power as radio waves across the door gap.
  • Converts the RF signal into usable DC voltage via an internal receiver.
  • Transfers data (REX, DPS, latch status) along with power.
  • Is less sensitive to vertical and horizontal misalignment than coil-based systems.

This makes the WPT more installer-friendly and reliable in real-world deployments—especially in field conditions where perfect alignment isn’t always possible.

Accessory Highlight: WPT Drill Jig

For installers working with solid or particle-filled wood doors, SDC offers a WPT Drill Jig Assembly (part #SDC-WPT), available from JustDoorToolz. This makes prep quick, clean, and precise—ensuring a secure, code-compliant fit for every install.

Pedestal Pro's Blue Light Emergency Call Tower

Pedestal Pro Blue Light Housings deliver a streamlined, professional-grade solution for deploying emergency call stations in outdoor environments. Whether your project calls for freestanding towers or wall-mounted units, Pedestal Pro offers a scalable product line that security dealers can rely on for fast installs, polished aesthetics, and full compatibility with today’s leading intercom and strobe light technologies.

From college campuses and parking garages to healthcare facilities and public parks, end users are demanding reliable, visible emergency communication points. For integrators, the challenge is delivering on those expectations without blowing the budget on custom fabrication or struggling to mount third-party components. Pedestal Pro solves that with a line of universal-fit Blue Light Housings—including both towers and wall boxes—engineered for integrators who want a pre-built platform that still feels custom.

Key Product Features

    • Tower and Wall-Mount Options – Choose the right form factor based on the environment or application

    • Universal Fit for Intercoms and Cameras – Supports Axis, Viking, Zenitel, Talkaphone, and other major brands

    • Blue Light Ready – Designed to accept a variety of LED strobe lights, including models from Federal Signal and Wolo

    • Powder-Coated Aluminum Construction – Durable, outdoor-ready housings resist corrosion and vandalism

    • Tamper-Resistant Fasteners – Securely protect internal components from unauthorized access

    • Pre-Cut for Your Tech – Streamline installation with easy cable access for power and data

    • Custom Branding Available – Match customer color schemes, add logos, or request custom finishes

    Use Cases and Dealer Benefits

    Blue Light Emergency Call Stations are no longer limited to university campuses. Today, they’re part of broader safety and security plans for dozens of verticals—making them a high-demand category for security integrators. Pedestal Pro’s dual form factor approach (tower and wall mount) gives you the flexibility to meet client needs across the board.

    1. College and University Campuses

    Freestanding towers offer maximum visibility across open spaces like quads, walkways, and parking lots. Wall-mount units are perfect for dorm entrances, stairwells, and elevator landings. With both options available, integrators can outfit an entire campus using one cohesive product line.

    2. Healthcare Facilities

    Hospital administrators prioritize rapid response and visibility. Blue Light Call Stations can be installed near ER entrances, parking decks, and long outdoor corridors. Wall units preserve space in tighter areas, while towers offer visual presence across larger campuses.

    3. Parking Structures and Garages

    Wall-mounted housings are ideal for garages and enclosed lots where freestanding towers aren’t practical. Whether placed at entry/exit points or elevator landings, they add a layer of safety with minimal footprint. The universal fit supports Axis, Viking, and Zenitel intercoms, enabling full audio/video communication.

    4. Municipal & Public Environments

    Cities and municipalities use these stations in parks, downtown corridors, and transit facilities to increase public trust and safety. Both towers and wall units are weather-ready and built to last—helping you meet government RFP specs faster.

    5. Commercial and Industrial Campuses

    Worksites, warehouses, and large corporate facilities often need emergency communications across sprawling outdoor areas. Blue Light Towers provide instant help points with minimal infrastructure. When tied into access control or video systems, these become critical nodes in larger security networks.

    Technical Summary

    All Pedestal Pro Blue Light Housings are fabricated from powder-coated aluminum for long-term durability and resistance to corrosion. Both the tower and wall-mount models are designed to accept:

    • Intercom Devices – Axis, Zenitel, Viking, Talkaphone, Aiphone

    • Cameras – Mini-dome or bullet style IP surveillance cameras

    • Blue Strobes – Including popular models from Federal Signal, Wolo, and others

    Each unit includes:

    • Pre-drilled mounting plates and internal structures for quick device installation

    • Built-in DIN Rail System turns your Blue Light Tower into an expandable field-deployable IDF (Intermediate Distribution Frame).

    • Secure fasteners that deter tampering and meet public safety standards

    • Color-matching or logo customization on request for branded deployments

    Whether you’re deploying one or 100 units, these housings help reduce field labor, streamline quoting, and avoid design errors.
