Electric strikes are the most widespread solution for electric door locking, thanks to their versatility in being suitable for almost any type of door. DORCAS is a Spanish manufacturer with an extremely wide range of products, offering high-quality electric locks. The DORCAS-54 series features DORCAS's symmetrical, standard-sized electric lock. The device operates in a fail-secure mode, meaning it requires power to unlock. The device's 45Ω coil provides even better current consumption. DORCAS electric strikes should always be installed indoors, in a place well protected from rain. If you are looking for an electric strike suitable for outdoor installation, the waterproof series models are the right choice. ATTENTION! Due to their operation, electric strikes with internal memory (Aa) can only be safely controlled with a pulse signal (<1s). If the door is actually opened and closed before the signal ends, the memory will remember the opening after the signal interruption, allowing entry even though the door has already been exited. MAINTENANCE! Regular inspection of the electric lock latch mechanisms (updating lubrication) is necessary to ensure optimal operation. If the lock's memory allows multiple openings from a short impulse or if the opening of a long-installed product becomes difficult, cleaning the lower part of the cover plate and re-lubricating the lock bolt will resolve the issue. |
