Door Strike Lock

*Fail-Secure/Fail-Safe *Capacity: 100 Kg *DC 12 V
An electric strike is an electromechanical lock release device that replaces a standard door strike plate.
It allows a door to be opened remotely, typically via an access control system, without manually retracting the latch. When activated, the electric strike releases the latch, enabling the door to be opened. 
Here's a more detailed explanation:
Functionality:
  • Replaces Standard Strike:
    Electric strikes are installed in the door frame, taking the place of the standard strike plate. 
  • Remote Release:
    They are designed to work with various access control systems, such as keypads, card readers, or intercoms. 
  • Activation:
    When an authorized signal is received (e.g., a code is entered, a card is swiped), the electric strike releases the latch, allowing the door to be opened. 
  • Fail-Safe or Fail-Secure:
    Electric strikes can be configured in either a fail-safe or fail-secure mode. 
    • Fail-safe: In this mode, the door unlocks when power is lost, making it suitable for safety applications where access is needed during power outages. 
    • Fail-secure: In this mode, the door remains locked when power is lost, requiring power to unlock, making it suitable for high-security applications. 
How it Works:
  • The electric strike contains a solenoid, which is an electromagnet.
  • When the solenoid is activated by an electrical signal, it moves a component (like an armature) that allows the latch to move freely.
  • This movement releases the door, allowing it to be opened. 
Key Differences from Other Locks:
  • Electric vs. Magnetic Locks:
    Unlike magnetic locks, which use powerful magnets to hold the door closed, electric strikes release the latch mechanism. 
  • Remote Access:
    Electric strikes offer remote access control, allowing doors to be unlocked without manual intervention. 
  • Versatility:
    They can be used with various locking mechanisms, including cylindrical, mortise, and rim exit devices. 
Common Applications:
  • Access Control:
    Electric strikes are a core component of access control systems in commercial and residential settings. 
  • Security:
    They provide a higher level of security compared to standard locks, especially when used with fail-secure configurations. 
  • Safety:
    In fail-safe configurations, they ensure safe egress during emergencies. 
  • Specific Areas:
    They are commonly found in reception areas, daycare centers, and other locations where controlled access is needed.

Magnetic lock

*Capacity: 180 Kg *DC 12 V A magnetic lock, also known as an electromagnetic lock or maglock, is a locking device that uses the principles of electromagnetism to secure a door. Unlike traditional mechanical locks, it has no moving parts.   How It Works A magnetic lock consists of two main components:
  • Electromagnet: This is typically mounted on the door frame. It contains a coil of wire wrapped around a ferromagnetic core.
  • Armature Plate: This is a steel plate mounted on the door itself, designed to align with the electromagnet.
When an electric current is supplied to the electromagnet, it generates a powerful magnetic field. This magnetic field attracts the armature plate, creating a strong bond that holds the door securely shut. To unlock the door, the power supply to the electromagnet is interrupted, causing the magnetic field to collapse and the door to release. Magnetic locks are generally fail-safe, meaning that in the event of a power outage, they automatically unlock. This is a crucial safety feature for emergency exits, as it ensures people can evacuate a building even if the power fails.   Advantages
  • High Security: Magnetic locks can provide a very strong holding force, making them difficult to force open. They are also virtually unpickable, as there are no keyholes or cylinders.
  • Durability and Low Maintenance: With no moving parts, magnetic locks experience less wear and tear than traditional locks, leading to greater longevity and reduced maintenance needs.
  • Quick Operation: They unlock instantly when power is cut, allowing for quick release, which is beneficial in high-traffic areas or emergencies.
  • Remote Operation and Access Control Integration: Magnetic locks can be easily integrated into electronic access control systems, allowing for remote operation, key card/fob access, biometric scanning, and detailed access logging.
  • Versatility: They can be installed on various door types, including glass, wood, and metal, and are suitable for both swinging and sliding doors.
  • Ease of Installation: Compared to some other electric locks, maglocks can be relatively straightforward to install.
  Disadvantages
  • Constant Power Requirement: Magnetic locks need a continuous power supply to remain locked. This means they are dependent on electricity, and a power outage will result in the door unlocking (fail-safe).
  • Cost: While the initial cost of the lock itself might be comparable, the overall installation can be more expensive due to the need for electrical wiring, power supplies, and integration with other security systems.
  • Additional Hardware for Safety: To comply with building codes and ensure safe egress, magnetic locks often require additional hardware such as push-to-exit buttons, motion sensors, or panic bars.
  • Maintenance of Backup Systems: If battery backups are used to mitigate power outages, these batteries require regular checking and replacement.

  • Solenoid Locks: These use an electromagnet to extend or retract a bolt, securing or releasing the gate.
  • Electromagnetic Locks (Mag Locks): These consist of an electromagnet mounted on the gate frame and a metal strike plate on the gate itself. When power is applied, the electromagnet creates a powerful magnetic force that holds the gate shut. Removing power releases the lock.
  • Electric Strikes: These replace the standard strike plate on the gate frame. They contain a solenoid that, when activated, pivots or retracts to release the gate's latch. They are often combined with a traditional keyed doorknob or lever.
Key Features and Considerations:
  • Remote Operation: The primary benefit, allowing you to open or close the gate from a distance.
  • Automatic Operation: Many models automatically lock when the gate closes, improving security.
  • Fail-Safe vs. Fail-Secure:
    • Fail-Secure: The lock remains locked when power is lost. This is common for high-security applications where you want the gate to stay secure even during a power outage.
    • Fail-Safe: The lock unlocks when power is lost. This might be preferred for safety reasons, ensuring an exit path in an emergency.
  • Holding Force: This indicates the strength of the lock in resisting forced entry, measured in pounds (lbs).
  • Compatibility: Ensure the electric lock is compatible with your specific gate type (wood, metal, swing, etc.) and any existing or planned access control systems (keypads, intercoms, smart home systems).
  • Manual Override: Many electric locks include a manual release key or mechanism for use in case of power failure or remote control malfunction.
  • Durability and Weather Resistance: Given that they are outdoors, look for locks built with durable, weather-resistant materials.
  • Integration with Other Access Control: Beyond remote controls, these locks can often be integrated with:
    • Keypads (for code entry)
    • Intercom systems (audio/video communication and remote release)
    • Smartphone apps (for remote monitoring and control)
    • Biometric readers (fingerprint, face scan)
