Ensuring access security while maintaining simplicity and efficiency is a constant challenge across many sectors. Whether for residential, professional or industrial environments, choosing a high-performance locking system becomes essential.
At SEWOSY, we develop innovative solutions of electric and electromagnetic locking. Each of our ranges of electric strikes meets precise requirements in terms of security, installation and usage conditions, allowing professionals to benefit from durable and high-performance products.
What is an electric strike?
An electric strike is an essential component of modern locking systems. Fixed on the door frame, it works in coordination with the latch or bolt of the lock to keep the door reliably and securely closed. Designed to adapt to different types of doors, it suits both standard installations and more specific configurations — such as doors equipped with panic bars — thus guaranteeing both safety and practicality.
Why choose an electric strike rather than a mechanical system?
Electric strikes offer several significant advantages:
- Enhanced security: thanks to advanced functions such as burglary resistance or varied operating modes (current-make or current-break), they guarantee optimal protection.
- Practicality: unlike mechanical locks, electric strikes allow remote unlocking, ideal for doors with frequent use or areas requiring strict access control.
- Integration into centralised access-control systems: they can be integrated into access-control setups, simplifying the management of entry authorisations.
The three operating modes of SEWOSY electric strikes
Depending on security needs and usage constraints, SEWOSY offers three types of electric strikes, each with a specific mode of operation:
- Make-on-current (current-make): unlocking occurs when power is applied — an ideal choice for asset protection.
- Stationary contact: a current pulse is sufficient to unlock the door, enabling the unlocked state until the user passes and automatic relock afterwards.
- Break-on-power (current-break): unlocking occurs when the power supply is cut — ensuring reliable emergency exit and guaranteeing personnel safety.
ROUREG® electric strikes: an innovative brand in electric-strike solutions
The ROUREG® range of SEWOSY stands out through its innovative approach and its capacity to meet the toughest requirements in terms of security and practicality. Did you know? The name ROUREG® is the acronym for “adjustable roller” — a key feature of these electric strikes! This illustrates SEWOSY’s focus on flexibility and adaptability in its products.
With expertise built over the years, SEWOSY has established itself as a major player in locking-solutions. The ROUREG® brand reflects the company’s core values: reliability, durability and installation simplicity. These electric strikes are designed to meet the needs of professionals such as joiners, electricians and security-system installers — all while offering an optimal user experience.
Advantages of ROUREG® electric strikes
The ROUREG® electric strikes are more than just strikes: they represent a genuine technological advance and address the expectations of professionals seeking efficient solutions. Here are their main advantages:
Adjustable roller for optimal flexibility
Each ROUREG® strike features an adjustable roller providing a precise adjustment of 3 to 4 mm (depending on model). This simplifies adaptation to different door configurations, reducing installation constraints.
Reduced forces required for opening:
Unlike some other models, ROUREG® strikes require little or no lateral cutting of the frame. This seemingly minor detail represents a considerable time-gain for installers while guaranteeing a clean aesthetic.
Exceptional durability and robustness:
ROUREG® electric strikes are designed to last: some models can support over 300,000 opening cycles and resist forces up to 500 daN. This makes them ideal for intensive usage in demanding environments.
Versatile and intuitive installation:
Thanks to their symmetrical body, these strikes are reversible and compatible with both DIN Left and DIN Right doors. This simplifies embedding in standard recesses, reducing necessary adjustments.
Varied power-supply options:
The electric strikes from ROUREG® adapt to specific needs thanks to various power versions: AC or DC. Some models include an integrated diode to protect the system against current backflow.
Diverse operational modes:
Whether functioning in current-make or current-break mode, the ROUREG® range offers solutions adapted to all use cases.
How do ROUREG® electric strikes revolutionise the secure-locking market?
The innovations delivered by ROUREG® place them at the forefront of available locking solutions. Compared to traditional models, they offer increased installation simplicity, enhanced durability and compatibility with varied configurations.
By eliminating frequent obstacles such as lateral cutting or complex adjustments, ROUREG® electric strikes enable installers to save valuable time while improving end-user satisfaction. Their reliability and longevity make them a cost-effective and durable choice — ideal for intensive usage.
IP range: waterproof electric strikes for demanding environments
In settings subject to extreme conditions, the reliability of locking must leave no room for compromise. That is why SEWOSY has designed a range of waterproof electric strikes, specifically adapted to outdoor applications or spaces exposed to humidity and dust.
These strikes, certified IP68, guarantee total protection against dust ingress and allow prolonged immersion — thus ensuring optimal durability even in the harshest environments.
Key technical features for performance:
- Two available models:
– SEIP1: Waterproof electric strike, current-make — 12-24V AC/DC
– SEIP2: Waterproof electric strike, memory type — 12-24V AC/DC - Connectable plug with orientation from 0 to 90 degrees, enabling flexible installation adapted to technical constraints.
- Dual-voltage (12-24V AC/DC), offering wide compatibility with different power systems.
Robust and reliable, these SEWOSY electric strikes are ideal for strengthening access-security at industrial sites, exterior access points or infrastructures requiring protection against the elements and challenging conditions.
Advice for choosing and installing your electric strike
When selecting the ideal electric strike model, several criteria should be taken into account:
- The door type: wood, metal or PVC.
- Environment: indoor or outdoor use.
- Specific requirements: burglary resistance, usage frequency, etc.
