The electric strike permits a door to open by releasing a hinge, called the strike, inside of the latch area of the lock. How is a door unlocked when it has an electric strike? The electric strike is wired to some sort of system, such as an intercom or a keypad that causes it to gain energy and pop the hinge upward, thus unlocking and opening the doorway.  An electric strike is used to allow people access through a door without having to provide them all with a key. It is essential for a door to have an external lock in order for an electric strike to be installed.
