120E Solenoid-Operated Deadlatch

The 120E is a solenoid operated pin tumbler lock designed for a variety of swing door applications such as inmate rooms, housing and dayroom perimeter doors, corridors and exterior doors.

Operation Details

The 120E deadlatch is a solenoid operated lock. When the door is in a locked closed condition, the latchbolt is deadlocked preventing the latchbolt from being retracted. Once the solenoid is energized, the deadlatch is lifted and the latchbolt is allowed to retract, unlocking the lock. The deadlock indicator switch provides monitoring of the deadlocked condition as well as the full projection of the latchbolt.

When ordering, the lock needs to be specified as having “Mechanical Holdback”, which allows the bolt to be retracted until the door opens, or specified as “Non-Holdback”, which only holds the latchbolt back as long as the solenoid is energized. The lock may be unlocked for an extended period of time by use of a maintained-contact switch.
