Electric Strikes Overview
Electric strikes are electromechanical devices installed on door frames. They work in conjunction with access control systems to electronically control the locking mechanism of a door. When activated, an electric strike releases the latch or bolt of the door, allowing it to open.
Electric strikes are commonly used in commercial and residential buildings, providing enhanced security and convenience by integrating with keycard readers, keypads, or other access control devices.
See the DC20 Manual for more info.
Installation Diagrams
When powering locking hardware via the DC20’s integrated power supply, ensure that the maximum allowable current per relay output is less than the rating listed in the manual (830 mA/415mA at 12/24VDC).
Note: Ensure the installation meets the related safety requirements in your area.
