The assembly ships as a complete rail package with an integrated controller and touch bar end cap, giving installers everything needed to upgrade in the field without replacing the entire device. Built for reliable, high-cycle performance, it delivers quiet, low-current operation that pairs well with modern access control systems in commercial and institutional settings.

Functional Details

The MELR system uses a low-current motor to retract the latch electrically, enabling remote unlocking and integration with automatic door operators or access control hardware. When signaled, the controller drives the motor to pull the latch back, allowing free passage until the device is de-energized and the latch returns to its secured position.
