What Is an Electric Strike?
An electric strike replaces the traditional strike plate on a door frame. Instead of relying solely on a mechanical latch, it uses an electrical release to allow entry when triggered by a credential or command. The door stays locked from the outside but opens automatically when activated by:
- Access cards
- Keypads
- Fobs
- Intercom buzzers
- Remote release buttons
- Smart access systems
Electric strikes create a controlled, secure entry point that still feels smooth for daily use.

Our Services
Complete Electric Strike Services
We handle everything from system design to installation and troubleshooting.
Electric Strike Installation
Installing an electric strike requires correct wiring, precise alignment, and compatibility with your existing locks, this is not a job for a handyman or DIY attempt. We install electric strikes that work with all commercial lock types, including: Mortise locks Cylindrical locks Deadlatches Panic bars & exit devices (with compatible electric strike) Access control systems We ensure the electric strike works smoothly, releases reliably, and stays secure when the door is locked.
Electric Strike Repair
Electric strikes fail for several reasons—misalignment, wiring issues, worn solenoids, or mechanical problems. When the strike stops releasing or the latch no longer engages correctly, your access system becomes unreliable and unsafe. We repair issues such as: Strike not releasing Delayed or weak activation Door failing to latch Electrical connection problems Jammed or sticking strike plates Intermittent function Clicking but not releasing Most repairs can be completed on-site with minimal downtime.
Electric Strike Replacement
If your current electric strike is outdated, damaged, incompatible, or failing under heavy use, replacement is often the smarter option. We install modern, durable, high-duty electric strikes built for commercial traffic. Replacement makes sense when: The solenoid is burned out Wiring is corroded or damaged The strike doesn’t meet fire or building code The door hardware has been upgraded You want to integrate access control or remote entry We provide and install electric strikes designed for your building’s specific hardware and security needs.
Integration With Access Control Systems
Electric strikes often work as part of a larger access system. We ensure full compatibility and smooth operation with: Card readers Keypads Intercom systems Buzz-in systems Smart access apps Remote release buttons Time-based access schedules Your door becomes part of a fully controlled and monitored entry system.
Electric Strikes for Panic Bars & Exit Devices
Not all panic bars allow electric strike integration—door hardware must be appropriately matched. We install specialized electric strikes that pair with: Rim panic bars Vertical rod devices Mortise exit devices This ensures your emergency exit doors remain code-compliant while offering controlled access on the entry side.
