What is a Power Solenoid lock?
A Power solenoid lock includes a long piece of copper wire that is wound in the housing. When the electric current goes through the solenoid copper coil, it creates a relatively uniform magnetic field inside the solenoid coil. The magnet force will release the plunger tongue to move in linear movement to unlock the door. When the current is off, the plunger tongue will be drawn back to the original position by the built in spring.

12V power solenoid lock has a slug with a slanted cut and a good mounting bracket. It’s basically an electronic lock, designed for a basic cabinet, safe or door. When 12V DC is applied, the slug pulls in so it doesn’t stick out and the door can be opened. It does not use any power in this state. It is very easy to install for automatic door lock systems like electric door lock with the mounting board. This solenoid, in particular, is nice and strong.
