EB300 / EB300VGL / FR-EB300 Electric Solenoid Drop Bolt Lock

The EB300 Series Electric Drop Bolt Lock is a compact electromechanical locking solution designed for use with access control systems, door entry systems, and security installations. Suitable for commercial, industrial, educational, healthcare, retail, and public sector environments, it provides reliable locking for doors requiring secure controlled access.

A drop bolt lock, also known as a solenoid bolt lock or electric deadbolt, uses an electrically operated locking bolt that engages when both the door and frame are correctly aligned. This operation helps prevent damage to the locking mechanism and ensures secure door locking.

The EB300 incorporates an adjustable automatic relock timer and fail-safe operation, making it suitable for a wide range of access control applications. The EB300VGL version is specifically designed for glass door installations, providing a practical solution where conventional door mounting is not possible. The FR-EB300 has been tested to BS EN1634-1 and is suitable for FD30 and FD60 fire doors.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the EB300 used for?

The EB300 is an electric drop bolt lock designed to secure doors connected to access control, door entry, and security systems.

What is the difference between the EB300 and EB300VGL?

The EB300VGL is designed specifically for glass door applications, while the standard EB300 is intended for conventional door installations.

What does fail safe mean?

Fail-safe means the lock requires power to remain locked. If power is removed or fails, the lock automatically releases, allowing the door to open.

What voltage does the EB300 operate on?

The EB300 operates from a 12VDC power supply.

Does the EB300 have a relock timer?

Yes. The lock features an adjustable automatic relock timer with settings of 0, 3, 6, or 9 seconds.

Is the FR-EB300 Suitable for Fire Doors?

Yes. The FR-EB300 has been tested to BS EN1634-1 and is suitable for installation on compatible FD30 and FD60 fire doors.

Yes. The lock is designed for use with access control systems, card readers, keypads, intercom systems, and door entry equipment.

Can the EB300 be used on glass doors?

Yes. The EB300VGL version is specifically designed for glass door installations.

Why does the bolt only engage when the door is aligned?

The lock uses alignment detection to ensure the bolt only extends when the door is correctly positioned. This helps prevent damage to both the lock and the door.

What happens if power is lost to the EB300?

As a fail-safe lock, the EB300 requires power to remain locked. If power is removed or fails, the locking bolt retracts to release the door.
