Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does "Power to Open" or "Normally Open" mean for this electric bolt lock?
A: "Power to Open" (also called Normally Open or NO) means the bolt is extended and locked by default when there is no power. When you apply 12V DC power, the bolt retracts to allow the cabinet or drawer to open. This is a fail-secure design — if power is lost, the lock stays engaged.
Q: What types of cabinets or furniture is this electric bolt lock compatible with?
A: This 12V mini electric bolt lock is designed for small cabinets, office drawers, vending cabinets, lockers, safe boxes, windows, and similar furniture. The two available size options (95×75×26mm and 80×60×14mm) provide flexibility for different installation spaces.
Q: Can I connect this lock to a keypad, RFID reader, or access control board?
A: Yes. This electric bolt lock works seamlessly with most standard access control systems including keypads, RFID card readers, fingerprint controllers, and timer relays — any system that outputs a 7–12V DC signal at ≤2A is compatible.
Q: How long can the lock stay energized (unlocked)?
A: It is strongly recommended to keep the energized (open) duration to 0–10 seconds. Exceeding this time can cause the lock body to overheat, which may reduce its lifespan or cause damage. Use a timed relay or controller to manage this automatically.
