  • Patent number: 11431156
    Abstract: A wire management device for mounting to a structure that has a mounting surface with an edge includes a planar portion having opposing side edges, a front face and a rear face that is configured for engaging the mounting surface. A wire management structure is coupled to extend from the front face and is configured for capturing elongated wires to secure a portion of the wires with the wire management device. An alignment structure is positioned proximate at least one side edge of the planar portion. The alignment structure is configured for engaging an edge of the mounting surface to align the side edges of the planar portion with respect to the mounting surface edges for centering the device. Once the wire management device is mounted, the alignment structure is breakable from the planar portion for being separated and discarded. Then a cover is clipped onto the wire management structure.

  • Patent number: 11384591
    Abstract: A system for providing electronic features in a doorframe include a body structure having a top wall, a bottom wall and a plurality of side walls. The walls define an interior space of the body structure. A plurality of ports are formed in the top wall and a plurality of ports are formed in the bottom wall with each port opening into the interior space. One or more of the top wall ports is longitudinally aligned with a respective bottom wall port to form a port pair. A diverter is positioned in the interior space and extends in the interior space from one side wall and toward an opposing side wall. The diverter spans between the port pair. The diverter has a diverter surface that is configured for directing an element that extends through a port of the port pair toward an area in the body structure.
