Access control installations require a wide range of skills, as well as time and effort to plan, design, and source components. And after all that, isn’t it a shame when the locks fail and you’re back on site for such a minor issue? Access control systems can’t function without effective, dependable locking. And modern systems (and customers) demand reliability. That’s where our new SR Series electric strikes come in.
Faster, easier installations
The symmetrical design of the SR Series is a small change with a big impact. It doesn’t matter if your door opens left or right, or if you don’t know until you get there on Day 1. You’ve always got the right strike with you. Plus, behind the scenes, it also means less stock to carry and no chance of ordering the wrong one by mistake. You can arrive on site and simply get on with your job.
Reliable unlocking even on long cable runs
Any lock can perform in perfect conditions. But what about in the real world with the real challenges you face every day? In many buildings, long cable runs are unavoidable – you need to be sure the strikes you choose will still deliver. The new SR Series strikes operate under critical conditions even down to 5.5V. That means fewer nuisance faults and unnecessary return visits to site.
Built-in surge protection
All the SR strikes come with a built-in bidirectional transil – in other words, effective surge protection to keep components safe from back-EMF. It means there’s no need for installing additional external diodes. Plus, you’ll reduce wiring mistakes and most importantly, protect controllers and extend the lifespan of the system.
Reliable release under preload
How many times have you been back to a site after complaints of a stuck door? Whether it’s air pressure problems or door misalignment, locks getting stuck is a huge pain for both you and your customer. Fortunately, the SR strikes handle preload up to 180N to reliably release even under pressure.
Fail safe and fail secure
It’s essential that you select the right type of lock for your application. The SR Series comes in both fail safe and fail secure modes, ensuring you remain compliant and deliver a safe locking solution.
Monitoring and integration
In higher-end installations, your customer might require door status monitoring. It’s especially common in commercial projects. The SR strikes equipped with monitoring make overall site visibility significantly easier, as well as supporting diagnostics in the event of something going wrong.
Plus, the SR Series is built for integration. Access control and intercom products rely on electric locking to deliver their solutions. CDVI manufactures not only the strikes, but ATRIUM access control and Robin intercoms as well – so you know they’re a compatible and reliable single ecosystem.
Built for long-term reliability
The SR strikes are built for the long game. Every component is carefully designed and built to maximise the lifespan of the product and keep your customers happier for longer. They’re certified for a quarter of a million duty cycles, and we’ve tested them in laboratory conditions for up to half a million. Reliable locks means less maintenance, fewer nuisance callbacks, and a resilient solution for high-traffic sites.
For better long-term performance and happier customers, choose the SR Series of electric strikes by CDVI.
