The LOX DB1260PTO Electric Drop Bolt is a professional-grade fail secure (power-to-open) electromechanical locking solution designed for commercial access control systems, narrow stile aluminium frames, glass doors, and swing-through door applications. Featuring a robust 300kg holding force, integrated door status monitoring (DSS), dual-voltage 12/24VDC operation, and 4-hour fire rating, the DB1260PTO delivers reliable security and controlled access for demanding installations. Its slim 25mm faceplate allows installation in narrow frame applications while maintaining strong locking performance and long-term durability. Tested to 400,000 operating cycles, the DB1260PTO is ideal for access-controlled commercial environments.

The DB1260 Series has been specifically engineered for double-action (swing-through) doors and can also be used as an additional locking device alongside an electric strike in single-door applications. The lock incorporates intelligent internal circuitry to protect the drop bolt mechanism from damage, built-in MOV surge protection, auto-lock functionality, and selectable relock delay settings of 0, 3, 6, or 10 seconds for flexible installation requirements. It is not recommended for emergency egress door applications.
