Product Overview

The Lockwood ES2000 Electric Strike 12VDC Fail Safe Monitored PTL/PTO is a high-security electric strike designed for use with access control systems on hinged doors. Built with solid stainless steel construction, the ES2000 provides dependable locking performance while supporting monitored door and latch status for integrated security systems. Designed for commercial and institutional environments, the strike delivers strong holding force, reliable operation and long service life, making it suitable for high-traffic entrances where safety, compliance and access control integration are essential.

Why Choose the ES2000

The ES2000 electric strike is designed for installations where security, monitoring and fire compliance are critical. Its fully monitored design allows security systems to confirm both latch and lock status, improving situational awareness and system reliability. With the ability to change between fail-safe and fail-secure operation on site, installers can configure the strike to match building safety requirements. The stainless steel body and hardened locking pins provide durability for demanding commercial environments, while its high holding strength ensures dependable door security.

Key Capabilities

Key Features

• 850kg Holding Force: The strike provides a high static holding strength of approximately 850kg, helping ensure the door remains securely locked when engaged. This makes it suitable for commercial buildings, controlled entry doors and other locations where strong mechanical security is essential.

• Fully Monitored Operation: Built-in monitoring confirms both the solenoid status and latch position, allowing access control systems to verify whether the door is secure or unlocked. This feature improves system intelligence and helps security teams respond quickly to door status events.

• Field Selectable Fail Safe / Fail Secure: Installers can change the strike between fail-safe and fail-secure operation on site. This means the same hardware can be adapted for different building safety requirements or access control strategies without requiring a separate model.

• Low Current Consumption: Operating at approximately 175mA at 12VDC, the ES2000 maintains efficient power usage while delivering reliable unlocking performance. The solenoid is designed for continuous use, supporting applications where the strike may remain powered for extended periods.

• Stainless Steel Construction: The strike body and locking components are manufactured from stainless steel, improving durability and resistance to wear. This robust construction helps the strike withstand frequent door cycles and challenging environments common in commercial buildings.

• Long Operational Life: The ES2000 has been endurance tested to approximately one million operating cycles, ensuring reliable performance over time even in busy entrances where doors are opened and closed repeatedly throughout the day.

FAQs

1. What does PTL / PTO mean on the ES2000 electric strike?
   PTL (Power To Lock) and PTO (Power To Open) refer to how the strike operates when power is applied. In PTL mode, power keeps the strike locked and removing power releases it, which is typically used for fail-safe applications. In PTO mode, the strike unlocks when power is applied and remains locked when power is removed. The ES2000 can be configured on site to operate in either mode depending on the security or life-safety requirements of the installation.
2. What does a monitored electric strike do?
   A monitored electric strike provides feedback signals to an access control system so it can verify the door’s status. In the ES2000, monitoring allows the system to confirm whether the strike is locked and whether the door latch is engaged. This information helps security systems detect door faults, forced entry attempts or doors that have not closed properly.
3. Is the ES2000 suitable for high-traffic doors?
   Yes. The ES2000 is designed for commercial environments and has been tested to approximately one million operating cycles. Combined with its stainless steel construction and strong holding force, this makes it suitable for busy entrances such as office buildings, hospitals, schools and public facilities where doors are used frequently throughout the day.
