ASSA ABLOY SMARTair i-MAX R4N Sliding Door Keypad Escutcheon Kit with Lockwood 3773E Mortice - MIFARE, DDA, Key Override
At A Glance
Not On This Tier
Not Available
The ASSA ABLOY SMARTair i-MAX R4N Sliding Door Keypad Escutcheon Kit (S4B46SL2V6480I-SB) is a matched SMARTair access control kit for timber sliding doors: an i-MAX R4N electronic escutcheon with an integrated keypad, MIFARE card reader and DDA lever, supplied with the Lockwood Selector 3773E self-latching sliding door mortice lock. The escutcheon runs on batteries, so the door needs no cabling.
This listing is the keypad kit on the Update-on-Card tier (ASSA ABLOY code S4CB46SL2V6480I-SB): users open the door by card, PIN or card plus PIN, and a key in a Lockwood oval cylinder overrides it, with the 3773E's latch hold-back letting you turn the key one-handed. If you do not need PIN entry, the card-only version of this kit (S4B42SL2V6480I-SB) costs less. Browse other PIN code smart locks and smart locks with a backup key.
Access is managed in ASSA ABLOY's TS1000 software: rights ride on each user's card and refresh at an online updater, so the door needs no network. ASSA ABLOY also makes this kit with Openow phone keys and on the Wireless Online tier - page 7 of the 3773E sliding door brochure lists the codes, and our door types guide covers sliding doors more broadly.
Usually ships in 3 business days.
The kit is built for commercial and institutional sliding doors - offices, healthcare and aged care, schools and apartment common areas. The escutcheon is rated to EN 1906 Grade 4 category of use and the 3773E to AS 4145.2 durability level D8. SMARTair is one of the commercial access-control brands we support.
Disability Compliance (DDA)
- Supplied with a DDA lever handle, and ASSA ABLOY states the 3773E sliding door solution complies with AS 1428.1 for accessibility (3773E brochure, page 3).
- Accessibility is still assessed on the complete doorset - handle heights, circulation space and door operating force on the sliding leaf all count.
- For accessible housing and NDIS projects, see our DDA and accessibility chapter and the NDIS and DDA housing guide.
Fire Doors
- The SMARTair i-max escutcheon is EN 1634 fire tested - a European test of the escutcheon on a test doorset.
- The 3773E brochure gives no fire rating for the sliding door lock, and we do not quote an Australian fire resistance level (FRL) for this kit.
- Treat this as a kit for non-fire-rated sliding doors unless the doorset manufacturer certifies it. Our guides to fire door core types and fire door types and certification explain what to check.
Key Features
- A matched kit: SMARTair i-MAX R4N escutcheon plus the Lockwood 3773E sliding door mortice it is made to drive.
- Integrated MIFARE reader for 13.56 MHz cards and fobs - see how RFID credentials work.
- Integrated keypad: open by card, by PIN code, or by card plus PIN for two-factor doors.
- Update-on-Card access control: rights travel on the user's card and refresh at an online updater, so the door needs no cabling or network.
- Mechanical key override through a Lockwood oval cylinder (supplied separately), with latch hold-back for one-handed operation.
- Self-latching: the 3773E latch engages automatically as the sliding door closes.
- 3773E rated to AS 4145.2-2008 security level S7 (S8 with door furniture and an anti-drill cylinder), durability D8 and corrosion C6.
- DDA lever handle; the 3773E solution complies with AS 1428.1.
- Battery powered by 3 x AAA LR03 alkaline cells - approx. 75,000 to 105,000 openings or up to 2 years.
- Approx. 3,000 users and an audit trail of approx. 1,200 events stored at the door.
ASSA ABLOY says the wireless escutcheons need only minor changes to an existing mechanical door preparation, and a retrofit fixing kit (3773ERFKITSS) suits doors that had the Lockwood 3573 sliding door strike (3773E brochure, pages 4 and 7).

Openow Phone Keys - Not Built Into This Tier
This listing is the Update-on-Card kit, so it opens on cards and PIN and does not include Openow. ASSA ABLOY makes the same kit with Openow built in on the Update-on-Card + Openow tier (S4BB codes) and the Wireless Online + Openow tier (S4ZB codes), where users carry a virtual key in the Openow app ![]()
and a site adds the Openow mobile access licence. Ask us if phone keys matter on your project - see Available System Variants below.
What's In The Box
- SMARTair i-MAX R4N outside escutcheon with integrated MIFARE reader and keypad
- Inside escutcheon with battery compartment
- DDA lever handle set
- Lockwood Selector 3773E self-latching sliding door mortice lock, timber door fixing
- Battery pack for the escutcheon
- Mounting hardware, fixings and assembly components
- Installation documentation for the escutcheon and the 3773E
The Lockwood oval cylinder for the key override is not included, nor are credentials, the USB encoder, the portable programmer or the TS1000 software licence. Aluminium doors need the 3773EAFKITSS fixing kit, ordered separately. The 3773E itself is not sold on its own - it comes only in these matched kits.
Suitable Uses
- Commercial and institutional timber sliding doors that need managed access on cards and PIN.
- Healthcare and aged care wards, utility rooms and corridors where one-handed, accessible operation matters.
- Education campuses - classrooms, labs and stores on sliding openings.
- Apartment and mixed-use common areas on sliding doors.
- Sites standardising on SMARTair MIFARE credentials, alongside the i-Reader R4N Slim for Update-on-Card and the i-gate MIFARE padlock.
- Hinged doors - see the SMARTair i-max hinged escutcheons (these read HID iCLASS, not MIFARE).
- Fire-rated sliding doors, unless the doorset manufacturer certifies the kit.
- Aluminium sliding doors without the 3773EAFKITSS fixing kit.
- Sites that need phone keys, live door status, remote opening or lockdown - these need the Openow or Wireless Online kit codes.
- Doors where the outside face is exposed to weather - ASSA ABLOY lists its IP56 exterior version without a keypad.
Available Finish Options
Black
(This Product)
STK S4B46SL2V6480I-SB
Finish selection does not affect functionality, compliance, or performance.
The kit is supplied with the black reader and the DDA lever handle; the 3773E has a stainless steel faceplate as standard.
Available System Variants
ASSA ABLOY lists six SMARTair i-MAX R4N codes for the 3773E - card-only and keypad, on three management tiers - all black, MIFARE, DDA and key override, with 3773E timber fixing (3773E brochure, page 7). We list the two Update-on-Card kits; the Openow and Wireless Online codes are ordered in on request.
Tiers are compared on page 4 of the SMARTair Product Overview. The Wireless Online tier talks to the server through SMARTair hubs - see our guide to what a gateway does. Emergency lockdown (TS1000 Lockdown Upgrade) is a Wireless Online feature only.
SMARTair Platform
- Managed in TS1000 - ASSA ABLOY's Windows client/server software - with the browser-based Web Manager for day-to-day administration; Web Manager needs a public IP address on the server (Product Overview, page 6).
- An Update-on-Card site needs a software licence, the USB encoder for cards, the portable programmer (or PC-TO-LOCK) for the doors, and online updaters where users refresh their cards (Product Overview, page 3).
- Lost or stolen cards are cancelled automatically, and users can be given activation and expiry dates (Product Overview, page 4).
- SMARTair tiers can be combined on one site and upgraded as it grows (Product Overview, page 5); our platform chapter compares SMARTair with other ecosystems.
- Sales, warranty and technical support are handled in Australia by ASSA ABLOY.
Lock Information - Lockwood 3773E Sliding Door Mortice Lock
- Australian designed and assembled self-latching sliding door mortice; the latch engages automatically as the door closes.
- 60 mm backset - see our backset measuring guide.
- Stainless steel self-latching bolt with an auxiliary stainless deadlatching bolt; high-purity zinc alloy case; stainless steel faceplate as standard.
- Latch hold-back for one-handed operation during key override (brochure, page 3).

- AS 4145.2-2008 security level S7 (S8 with door furniture and an anti-drill cylinder), durability D8 and corrosion C6 (168 hours) (brochure, page 5).
- Designed to integrate with ASSA ABLOY Aperio, SMARTair and Integral escutcheons; supplied here with timber door fixing.
- Fixing kits: 3773EAFKITSS converts the fixing for aluminium doors, and 3773ERFKITSS suits retrofits where the door had the Lockwood 3573 sliding door strike.
Power Supply and Battery System
- Powered by 3 x AAA LR03 alkaline batteries in the inside escutcheon.
- Approx. 75,000 to 105,000 openings or up to 2 years, whichever comes first.
- The escutcheon warns of low battery before the batteries run out - change all three cells together when it does.
- Battery life is shaped by traffic and environment - see what really affects battery life.
Fit a Lockwood oval cylinder to the 3773E and a key opens the door if the escutcheon batteries run flat; the latch hold-back lets you turn the key and slide the door one-handed. Read about key override when the battery dies.

Dimensions

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. The kit includes the Lockwood Selector 3773E sliding door mortice with timber fixing. The oval key cylinder is not included, and the 3773E is not sold separately.
Not on this listing. It is the Update-on-Card kit, which opens on cards and PIN. ASSA ABLOY makes the same kit with Openow phone keys (S4BB and S4ZB codes) - ask us to order one in.
Only if those doors read MIFARE. This kit reads MIFARE; the SMARTair i-max hinged escutcheons we list read HID iCLASS, so cards will not cross between them. The i-Reader R4N Slim for Update-on-Card and the i-gate MIFARE padlock share this kit's credential technology.
The escutcheon warns of low battery first. If the batteries do run flat, a key in the Lockwood oval cylinder opens the door, and the latch hold-back lets you do it one-handed - see key override when the battery dies.
Not on our advice. The escutcheon is EN 1634 fire tested, but the 3773E brochure gives no fire rating for the sliding lock. Treat the kit as for non-fire-rated doors unless the doorset manufacturer certifies it - see fire door types and certification.
Additional Information
- Which tier this listing is. Our store code S4B46SL2V6480I-SB matches ASSA ABLOY's Update-on-Card code S4CB46SL2V6480I-SB. If your site runs Openow or Wireless Online, order the matching S4BB or S4ZB code instead, so every door speaks to the same system.
- Timber or aluminium. The kit comes with timber fixing. Aluminium doors need the 3773EAFKITSS fixing kit, and doors that had a Lockwood 3573 sliding strike can use the 3773ERFKITSS retrofit kit (brochure, page 7).
- Credentials. Plan on MIFARE cards or fobs encoded for your site with the USB encoder. If the building already runs iCLASS SMARTair doors, those cards will not open this kit.
- Installation. Sliding door preparation and SMARTair commissioning go together. The dimension drawing has no scale statement, so check figures against the hardware. Our advice and installation team and site survey service can take this on.
- Coastal sites. The 3773E is rated to corrosion level C6 (168 hours), but batteries and electronics still suffer in salt air - see electronic locks in coastal conditions.
Warranty
ASSA ABLOY branded products purchased new in Australia from authorised resellers are covered against defects in materials and workmanship for:
- Mechanical components: 10 years
- Electrical and electronic components: 5 years (excluding batteries)
- Cylinders and keys: 3 years

Choosing This Kit
A matched SMARTair kit for timber sliding doors: an i-MAX R4N electronic escutcheon with a MIFARE reader, keypad and DDA lever, plus the Lockwood Selector 3773E self-latching sliding door mortice it is made to drive. It runs on batteries, so the door needs no cabling, and it is managed on the SMARTair Update-on-Card tier.
Update-on-Card. Our store code S4B46SL2V6480I-SB matches ASSA ABLOY's code S4CB46SL2V6480I-SB. ASSA ABLOY lists the same kit on the Update-on-Card + Openow tier (S4BB codes) and the Wireless Online + Openow tier (S4ZB codes) - see the Available System Variants table. We order those in on request.
Choose this keypad kit when a door needs PIN entry or card plus PIN. If cards alone will do, the card-only kit (S4B42SL2V6480I-SB) costs less and is otherwise the same escutcheon, lever and 3773E.
Yes - the Lockwood 3773E sliding door mortice comes in the kit with timber fixing. The Lockwood oval cylinder for the key override is ordered separately so it can be keyed to your site.
No. ASSA ABLOY supplies the 3773E only as part of a matched escutcheon kit, so it is not available separately.
Use a hinged-door SMARTair escutcheon, such as the i-max Update-on-Card escutcheon (SNCB43SL1S008DI) with a matched mortice body. Note that the hinged i-max escutcheons we list read HID iCLASS, while this kit reads MIFARE, so plan credentials across the site before ordering.
It usually ships in 3 business days. Credentials, the encoder, the programmer and the software licence may have their own lead times, so order the system parts at the same time.
Cards, PIN Codes and Access
13.56 MHz MIFARE credentials - cards, fobs, tags or wristbands - encoded for your site with the SMARTair USB encoder. SMARTair writes into the credential's free memory, so one card can also carry other services (Product Overview, page 8).
No. This kit reads MIFARE, and iCLASS cards do not cross to a MIFARE reader. If your site already runs iCLASS SMARTair doors, talk to us before ordering. The i-Reader R4N Slim for Update-on-Card and the i-gate MIFARE padlock share this kit's MIFARE technology.
Each user can be set to open by card, by PIN on the escutcheon keypad, or by card plus PIN, where the door asks for both - useful on stores, medication rooms and staff-only doors. See PIN codes compared with cards.
Approximately 3,000 users and an audit trail of approximately 1,200 events at the door. Check the user count for your site with us if it is close to that figure.
On the Update-on-Card tier, lost or stolen cards are cancelled automatically - there is no need to visit every door (Product Overview, page 4).
Yes. TS1000 sets time zones and calendars, and Update-on-Card supports activation and expiry dates and times - handy for contractors and agency staff (Product Overview, page 4).
Phone Keys, Tiers and Upgrades
Not with this listing. Openow phone keys are built into the S4BB and S4ZB kit codes, and a site using them adds the Openow mobile access licence. Ask us to order an Openow kit if phone keys matter.
No. Remote opening, live door status and the TS1000 Lockdown Upgrade need the Wireless Online tier (S4ZB codes) with SMARTair hubs. See our guide to what a gateway does.
SMARTair tiers can be combined on one site, and ASSA ABLOY describes the system as upgradable (Product Overview, page 5). What a change involves at each door depends on the hardware, so ask us before planning an upgrade around this kit.
A TS1000 software licence, the USB encoder for cards, the portable programmer (or PC-TO-LOCK) for the doors, and online updaters where users refresh their cards (Product Overview, page 3). Web Manager then handles day-to-day work in a browser.
The Lockwood 3773E Mortice
It holds the latch back while you use the key override, so one hand can turn the key and slide the door (3773E brochure, page 3).
Yes. The 3773E is self-latching: its stainless steel latch engages automatically as the sliding door closes, with an auxiliary deadlatching bolt behind it.
The 3773E is rated to AS 4145.2-2008 security level S7 (S8 with door furniture and an anti-drill cylinder), durability D8 and corrosion C6, a 168-hour test. Our standards chapter explains each scale.
A standard Lockwood oval brass cylinder (bump-resistant 5-pin) with an X7 or V cam, supplied separately so it can be keyed to your site. See how key override works on smart locks.
60 mm. Measure your door stile before ordering - our backset measuring guide shows how.
The kit comes with timber fixing. ASSA ABLOY makes the 3773EAFKITSS fixing conversion kit for aluminium doors and the 3773ERFKITSS retrofit kit for doors that had the Lockwood 3573 sliding strike (brochure, page 7). Ask us to add the one you need.
Power and Batteries
Three AAA LR03 alkaline cells in the inside escutcheon, rated for approximately 75,000 to 105,000 openings or up to 2 years, whichever comes first. See what really affects battery life.
The escutcheon warns of low battery first. If they run flat, the key override opens the door - fit the Lockwood oval cylinder at installation so the key is ready. See key override when the battery dies.
In the inside escutcheon, on the secure side of the door. Replace all three cells at the same time.
Installation and Door Fit
The i-max escutcheon covers doors 30 to 120 mm thick, and ASSA ABLOY sizes the 3773E door fit to the escutcheon chosen. Measure at the lock position - see our door thickness guide.
No. The escutcheon runs on batteries and talks to credentials at the door, so there is no cabling to the sliding leaf - a real advantage on a door that moves.
No. The 3773E dimension drawing has no unit or scale statement. Read figures from it, but confirm the door preparation with us before cutting.
Sliding door preparation and SMARTair commissioning go together, and the door must be set up from the software with the portable programmer. We recommend a locksmith or access control technician - see our advice and installation service and the installation and troubleshooting chapter.
Compliance, Safety and Warranty
Not on our advice. The escutcheon is EN 1634 fire tested, but the 3773E brochure gives no fire rating for the sliding lock. Treat the kit as for non-fire-rated doors unless the doorset manufacturer certifies it - see how to identify a fire door.
It has a DDA lever, and ASSA ABLOY states the 3773E sliding door solution complies with AS 1428.1. The whole doorset still has to meet the standard - see the NDIS and DDA housing guide.
ASSA ABLOY lists its IP56 Extreme exterior version of the i-max without a keypad (Product Overview, page 9), so treat this keypad kit as an interior-door product.
ASSA ABLOY's Australian warranty: 10 years on mechanical components and 5 years on electrical and electronic components, excluding batteries. The full terms are in the Warranty section on this page.
