Ensure your power supply delivers a stable \u003cstrong\u003eDC 12V\u003c\/strong\u003e output and that your access controller supports a normally-closed (NC) output trigger. Connect the two lock wires to your controller's lock port — no complex wiring harness required. Always consult a licensed electrician or security professional if you are unsure about your installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor workplace safety guidelines related to electrical installations, visit \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.osha.gov\/electrical\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eOSHA – Electrical Safety\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: What is the difference between a fail-safe and fail-secure electric lock?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: A fail-safe lock (like this B4L-NC model) unlocks when power is removed, making it safe for egress in emergencies. A fail-secure lock remains locked when power is cut, which is better for exterior doors where security must be maintained even during outages. Choose based on your specific door's safety and security requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: What access control systems is this electric mortise drop bolt lock compatible with?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: This DC 12V lock is compatible with virtually any access control system that outputs a standard dry-contact or relay signal, including card readers, PIN keypads, biometric scanners, and intercoms. It works with most major brands of access control panels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: Can I adjust the time delay on this lock?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Yes. The built-in time delay feature allows you to set a brief interval between the access signal and the bolt retracting, giving users a controlled and smooth entry experience.

A dedicated access control power supply with battery backup is recommended for professional installations to ensure operation during power interruptions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e{\"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\", \"@type\": \"FAQPage\", \"mainEntity\": [{\"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"What is the difference between a fail-safe and fail-secure electric lock?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": {\"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"A fail-safe lock (like this B4L-NC model) unlocks when power is removed, making it safe for egress in emergencies.
