It is fail close, which means the keep stays locked when the power is off and needs power to release, so it is the choice where a gate must stay secure during a power cut. When it releases, it pushes the day bolt outward so that the gate opens freely. It is IP56 rated and has a 54mm backset. It must run from the matching power supply listed below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cfigure style=\"margin:16px 0\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0621\/3002\/8778\/files\/electric-insert-keep-fail-close-24v-dc-54mm-backset-black-drawing.jpg?width=1200\" alt=\"Drawing of the black electric insert keep with its stop plate\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1200\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"display:block;width:100%;max-width:760px;height:auto;margin:0 auto\"\u003e\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy this keep works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSecure on a power failure.\u003c\/strong\u003e A fail close keep holds the day bolt when there is no power, so losing the supply does not leave the gate open.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIt pushes the bolt out.\u003c\/strong\u003e Instead of just letting go, the keep actively drives the day bolt outward on release, so the gate frees up cleanly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLow running draw.\u003c\/strong\u003e It uses just 3W in operation, peaking at 55W while the mechanism moves, and the supply has to be able to deliver that peak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOne part for either hand.\u003c\/strong\u003e It changes easily between left and right, and it uses a clip-in fixing so that no thread needs tapping in the post.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eControlled swing gates with insert locks on commercial sites, schools and residential blocks, particularly where the power and control wiring is easier to bring to the post than to the moving gate leaf.
