Designed for Fully Frameless Glass Doors
The EL-B500U is specifically listed as being suitable for fully frameless glass doors, making it a purpose-built option for modern glass entrances where conventional framed-door locks may not be appropriate.
Its design is particularly suited to installations where maintaining the clean appearance of a frameless glass entrance is important while still providing electronically controlled locking.
Fail-Safe Operation
The fail-safe design is intended to release the locking mechanism when electrical power is removed. This characteristic can be valuable for access-control installations where emergency egress and controlled unlocking during a power interruption are priorities.
Because fail-safe operation affects building security and life-safety behavior, the lock should be installed and configured according to the requirements of the specific access-control system and applicable local safety regulations.
Adjustable Operation Delay
The EL-B500U supports selectable delay settings of:
- 0 seconds
- 3 seconds
- 6 seconds
- 9 seconds
This allows installers to configure the lock’s operating behavior according to the requirements of the access-control system.
Electronic Access Control Integration
The electric bolt can be incorporated into an electronic door-access system and controlled through compatible access-control equipment.
Typical system components may include:
- Access-control controllers
- RFID/card readers
- Keypads
- Biometric readers
- Exit buttons
- Door-access management systems
- Compatible power supplies
This makes the EL-B500U suitable for controlled entrances in commercial and institutional environments.
