    Electric strikes can be differentiated in a number of ways, frame type it can be installed in, duty (continuous or intermittent), and which variety of locking mechanism on the door it can work with. The four most common locking mechanisms concerned with electric strikes are Cylindrical, Deadbolt, Mortise, and Rim Panic Exit Devices.

    A crash bar (also known as a panic exit device, panic bar, or bump bar) [1] [2] is a type of door opening mechanism which allows users to open a door by pushing a bar.

  6. Electromagnetic lock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_lock

    The principle behind an electromagnetic lock is the use of electromagnetism to lock a door when energized. The holding force should be collinear with the load, and the lock and armature plate should be face-to-face to achieve optimal operation. The magnetic lock relies upon some of the basic concepts of electromagnetism.

    Electric strikes (also called electric latch release) replace a standard strike mounted on the door frame and receive the latch and latch bolt. Electric strikes can be simplest to install when they are designed for one-for-one drop-in replacement of a standard strike, but some electric strike designs require that the door frame be heavily modified.
