EMKA has advised that its electronic locking systems can also be useful for commercial vehicles and caravan manufacture.

In these situations, they can offer a way that closure and locking systems may be mounted internally and, therefore, not visible from the outside. These systems ensure a functioning, reliable, and secure lock, which is difficult for unauthorised persons to open, coupled with other appropriate high-quality hardware components.

The ePush Lock is installed to be invisible from the outside so that opening and closing are achieved by pressing the flap/door, which ensures no interruption of the outer sealing due to mounting on the inside. A related design is the eCam electromechanical latch for all types of cam locks, which may be installed in new and existing systems. Locking/Unlocking may be achieved in a stand-alone guise, also with a keypad or RFID card reader and for integration into access control systems or machine controls.

A typical mechanical example is the Double Red compression latch. The rotary handle is only lockable in the closed state and provides a robust solution for many years of use – it is tamper and vibration-proof, according to DIN EN 61373.

EMKA also has a single-point latch, a safety quarter turn, a 90° 3D hinge and a compression latch-hinge plus a 180° gear hinge, together with accessories such as a bow-type handle and an emergency hammer to complete the installation.
