DC12V Mini Electric Bolt Lock | 5-Wire Cabinet Door Access Control
DC12V Mini Electric Bolt Lock | 5-Wire Cabinet Door Access Control
DC12V Mini Electric Bolt Lock with Door Feedback – Compact Access Control Solution
Take control of your cabinet, drawer, or small door security with this compact DC12V electric bolt lock. Designed for access control systems, this mini electric mortise lock features a 5-wire configuration with built-in door status feedback — making it easy to integrate with controllers, alarms, or monitoring systems. Its slim aluminum alloy body fits into tight spaces where standard locks simply won't work.
Key Features
- Dual Work Modes: Configurable as Power-Off-to-Lock (fail-secure) or Power-On-to-Lock (fail-safe) to suit your specific installation requirements.
- Door Status Signal Output: Built-in 5-wire design provides a door state feedback signal so your controller always knows whether the door is open or closed.
- Aluminum Alloy Construction: Lightweight yet durable housing built to withstand daily commercial and residential use.
- Compact Form Factor: Measures just 120 × 18 × 23 mm — ideal for cabinets, lockers, enclosures, and narrow-profile doors.
- Wide Operating Temperature Range: Performs reliably from -10°C to +55°C (-14°F to 131°F), suitable for both indoor and outdoor sheltered installations.
- Low Steady-State Current Draw: Only 60 mA during normal operation, keeping energy consumption minimal.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between Power-Off-to-Lock and Power-On-to-Lock modes for this electric bolt lock?
A: In Power-Off-to-Lock (fail-secure) mode, the bolt extends and the door locks when power is removed — ideal for high-security applications where you want the door to remain locked during a power outage. In Power-On-to-Lock (fail-safe) mode, the bolt locks only when power is applied — suitable for applications where the door should remain accessible during a power failure, such as emergency exits or fire-rated doors.
Q: What does the 5-wire configuration with door feedback mean?
A: The 5-wire design includes wires for power, lock control, and a dedicated door status signal output. This feedback signal allows your access control panel, alarm system, or monitoring software to detect in real time whether the door is open or closed — enabling alerts, logging, or automated responses without additional sensors.
Q: What power supply do I need for this DC12V electric bolt lock?
A: You need a regulated DC 12V power supply capable of delivering at least 1200 mA (1.2A) at startup to handle the peak inrush current, with a steady-state draw of only 60 mA during normal locking operation. A standard 12V/2A access control power supply is more than sufficient.
Q: Is this electric bolt lock suitable for outdoor use?
A: This lock operates reliably across a temperature range of -10°C to +55°C, making it suitable for sheltered outdoor environments such as outdoor cabinets or enclosures. It is not rated for direct rain or water exposure, so it should be installed in a weatherproof housing if used in damp or wet locations.
