A door strike, also known as a strike plate, is a metal plate installed on a door or a pedestrian gate jamb that works with a door’s latch or bolt to secure the door when closed.
The door strike lock provides a point of contact for the latch, keeping the door from swinging open. Electric strikes are a type of door strike that can be controlled electronically, often as part of an access control system.
Here’s a more detailed explanation:
-
Traditional Door Strike:A standard strike plate is a simple metal plate with a hole or recess that the door’s latch or bolt engages with when the door is closed. It’s a crucial part of any door locking system, ensuring the door stays securely closed.
-
Electric Strike:An electric strike replaces the traditional strike plate and is an electromechanical device. It is controlled by an electrical signal and allows for remote access control. When activated, it releases the latch, allowing the door to be opened without manually turning a knob or handle.
-
Functionality:Electric strikes are often used in commercial buildings and other locations where access needs to be controlled. They work with various access control systems like card readers, keypads, or biometric scanners.
-
Fail-safe/Fail-secure:Electric strikes can be configured as either fail-safe or fail-secure. A fail-safe strike remains unlocked during a power outage, allowing for egress, while a fail-secure strike remains locked in a power outage, requiring power to unlock.
