The ORNO OR-EZ-4042 is a high-quality symmetrical electric strike designed for integration into modern access control systems. This device is engineered to provide reliable door release functionality for both residential and commercial properties. Featuring a robust construction, it includes a built-in memory function and a mechanical lock, which enhances security and operational convenience. Operating at 12VDC with a low power consumption of 280mA, this electric strike is an efficient solution for managing entry points in various building types.

Advantages

The primary advantage of this electric strike is its symmetrical design, which allows for versatile installation on both left and right-handed doors. The integrated memory function ensures that a single electrical impulse keeps the strike unlocked until the door is opened, simplifying access for users. Furthermore, the inclusion of a mechanical lock provides an additional layer of security, allowing the door to be manually locked or unlocked as needed. Its low current consumption makes it compatible with a wide range of power supplies and intercom systems, ensuring stable and long-lasting performance.

Suitable for

• Residential intercom and video doorbell systems
• Commercial office access control
• Apartment building entrance doors
• Integration with electronic access control panels

When it may not be suitable

This electric strike is designed for specific low-voltage systems and may not be compatible with high-voltage door hardware or heavy-duty industrial security systems that require specialized magnetic locks. It is not intended for use on doors that require fire-rated hardware or specific emergency exit compliance without proper professional assessment.

Key specifications

• Voltage: 12VDC
• Current consumption: 280mA
• Design: Symmetrical
• Features: Memory function and mechanical lock

How to use

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician to ensure proper alignment with the door latch. The strike is mounted into the door frame, replacing the standard strike plate. Once installed, it is connected to the 12VDC power source and the access control system, such as an intercom or keypad. The memory function activates upon receiving a signal, keeping the strike open until the door is physically pushed or pulled, after which it automatically resets to the locked position.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your existing power supply provides a stable 12VDC output.
• Check the dimensions of your current door frame to ensure the strike fits correctly.
• Confirm if your door setup requires a symmetrical or asymmetrical strike.
• Ensure compatibility with your existing intercom or access control system.

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the mechanical lock and strike plate for debris or misalignment to ensure smooth operation. Avoid using harsh cleaning chemicals on the metal components to prevent corrosion and maintain the integrity of the locking mechanism.
