    Abstract: A local server can be provided at the premises. The local server can monitor connectivity of workstations to a cloud server. When the workstations are connected to the cloud server, they may request the encoding of keycards to the cloud server, and the cloud server may command the encoders to proceed with the encoding of the keycards accordingly. When detecting an interruption in the connectivity, the local server can enable the local creation of new bookings. This can include storing booking data stemming from the new booking into the memory; and encoding one or more keycard via a given one of the encoders, including granting the one or more keycards access, for the access period, to one or more of the electronic locks corresponding to the one or more of the units. When detecting the connection, the local creation of new bookings can be disabled.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented solution is provided to allow electronic locks to implement commands more complex than simply opening or closing, such as timeframe-dependent commands, without requiring an access to the Internet at the time of access. At a remote computer, such as a cloud server, computer-readable instructions initially provided in a sequence of plain text characters, are encrypted into a user code using format preserving encryption (FPE) (e.g. FF3-1). The user code is communicated to the user. The user can then input the user code into the electronic lock via a numerical keypad or other suitable means. The lock is provided with computer functionalities which include a functionality to decrypt the cipher text of the user code back into plain text programming instructions using a decryption key, and execute it. The execution can involve determining whether one or more authorization condition is/are satisfied.

    Abstract: The electronic access control strike can have a bolt socket, a bolt path leading to bolt socket, a keeper movably mounted to a frame in a manner to be moveable into and out of interference with the bolt path, a cam member moveable for selectively blocking or unblocking the movement of the keeper, and an anti-preload member which is moveable into interference between the keeper and the cam member for preventing the keeper from conveying a preload force onto the cam member when the cam member is in the blocking position, and moveable out from interference between the keeper and the cam member when the cam member is in the unblocking position to allow the keeper to be moved out from interference with the bolt path.

    Abstract: The electric strike can have a housing having an internal face receivable against a receiving face of a door frame, an external strike face, a socket recessed into the strike face along a socket axis normal to the receiving face of the door frame, for receiving a male locking member retractably mounted to a door, the male locking member also being moveable transversally to the socket axis, along a horizontal escape path, by opening the door, the electric strike further having a keeper pivotally mounted around a pivot axis between a closed configuration and an open configuration, the pivot axis parallel to the socket axis and offset from the escape path on a first side of the socket, inside the housing, the keeper having a gate member forming a restraining wall of the socket blocking the escape path when in the closed configuration, and a distal end.

    Abstract: The method can include: introducing a neck portion of the handle in a receiving aperture of the frame and thereby positioning a second engagement member of the neck into a tangential engagement with a first engagement member of a rotary holder, and positioning a transversal groove defined in the neck portion in axial alignment with a clip axially trapped in a cam cavity of the frame, the clip further being tangentially trapped by the rotary holder but free to slide in a radial orientation relative to the rotary holder; and rotating the rotary holder around the rotation axis, via rotation of the handle, along a camming angle, the rotary holder thereby pivoting a clip around the rotation axis, inside a cam cavity, the cam cavity pushing the clip radially inwards during said pivoting, until it is engaged in the transversal groove, preventing axial retraction of the neck portion thereafter.

    Abstract: An electric strike assembly includes a housing formed with a recessed portion therein, a keeper assembly pivotably mounted in the recessed portion of the housing, a lock leg pivotably mounted in the recessed portion of the housing and configured to rotate independently of the rotation of the keeper assembly, a block assembly having a blocking element configured to engage and disengage the keeper assembly, and to control engagement and disengagement of the blocking element with the keeper assembly. A method of capturing and releasing a latch bolt mounted in a door includes mounting an electric strike assembly in an associated door jamb and controlling an actuator to rotate an, actuator paddle to engage a blocking element such that the blocking element is engaged or disengaged from a keeper assembly.
