Flexible Operation: Day and Night Modes

The ABLOY EL518 lock provides practical and secure operational flexibility with its day and night modes. In day mode, doors can be freely opened by pushing or pulling, perfect for high traffic areas needing regular and convenient access. Switching to night mode activates the deadlocking mechanism, maintaining security while still allowing free egress via the internal handle. 

These modes make the ABLOY EL518 electric lock ideal for smaller office buildings and commercial premises where security requirements vary throughout the day.

High Security Access Control

The ABLOY EL518 integrates easily with access control systems, enabling controlled management of entry points and is particularly effective on external doors. This euro profile electric lock features a 20mm motor driven deadbolt with burglary resistant performance. 

The EL518 offers deadbolt monitoring to indicate lock status in real time. The lock remains securely deadlocked by default when set to momentary function mode, ensuring secure locking even during power loss. These features make this ABLOY motor lock a robust solution for high security access control.

To complete your access control system, we supply essential components, including power supply units, keypads, and proximity readers. For concealed power transfer, consider Simonswerk TECTUS Energy conductor hinges, such as the TE 640 3D Energy offering a heavy duty solution for doors up to 200kg.

For enhanced security and added functionality, consider the ABLOY EL520. It features multiple monitoring outputs for real time status feedback and is tested for use on fire rated doors. Explore our complete electric locking range or contact our technical team for tailored advice.
