ASEC A3 Mortice Release With Hold Open

The Asec A3 Mortice Electric Release with Hold Open is a low-duty electric strike designed for mortice installation. It provides a reliable fail-locked (fail-secure) operation, ensuring the door remains locked and secure in the event of a power failure.

A key feature of the A3 model is its manual hold-open override. By incorporating an unlatching lever within the release mechanism, users can manually set the strike to allow free, unrestricted access when activated. This makes it ideal for environments where doors need to be left unlocked during specific periods, such as business hours or deliveries.

Constructed with a durable grey finish, this electric release offers a robust holding force of up to 295kg (650lbs). It operates on a 12V AC power supply with a current consumption of 0.65A. The unit is supplied boxed as a single pack and comes with a 1-year manufacturer's guarantee.
