Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Fail-Secure and Fail-Safe on the ES15?
Fail-Secure means the strike remains locked when power is lost — ideal for security-critical doors. Fail-Safe means the strike releases (unlocks) when power is lost — required for fire egress doors. The ES15 can be switched between both modes on-site using a small screwdriver, with no rewiring needed.
Is the LOX ES15 suitable for outdoor use?
Yes. The ES15 carries an IP56 rating, meaning it is protected against dust ingress and powerful water jets, making it well suited to outdoor gates, car parks, and exposed entry points across Australia.
Can the ES15 work with my existing 12V access control system?
Yes. The ES15 accepts both 12VDC and 24VDC, so it is compatible with the vast majority of standard access control panels and intercom power supplies.
Does the ES15 require mortising into the door frame?
No. The ES15 is a rim-mounted (surface-mounted) strike, meaning it mounts directly onto the door frame surface — no chiselling or mortising required. This makes it particularly suitable for retrofits.
Does CCTV Guru ship the LOX ES15 Australia-wide?
Yes. We ship to all states and territories across Australia, including metro and regional areas.
