Commercial Electric Door Strikes for Access Control
Electric door strikes are one of the most widely used locking solutions for commercial access control systems. Installed in place of a traditional strike plate, an electric strike allows authorized users to unlock a secured door remotely while continuing to use the existing mechanical lock. These systems are commonly paired with card readers, keypads, intercoms, request-to-exit devices, panic hardware, and building security systems.
TM Hardware offers one of the largest online selections of commercial electric door strikes from trusted manufacturers including HES, Adams Rite, RCI, and more.
