Southco, Inc. continues to expand its rotary latch portfolio with new versions that can enable electronic actuation and provide an electronic door status signal. These new products offer increased security and access control in rugged environments. A symmetric design allows the same product to be used either in right- or left-hand positions, simplifying integration and inventory management. Southco’s new R4-25 products are a response to customer requests for electronic control and monitoring in demanding applications.

Southco, Inc. has recently introduced a Universal Latch Sensor (ULS) for enhanced security and constant monitoring. Southco’s Universal Latch Sensor is a simple magnet that attaches to an existing latch, and a magnetic sensor that attaches to the inside of an existing door frame. When the door is closed, and the latch is engaged, the magnet comes into proximity with the sensor, sending an electronic signal to your security system. This lets you know the door is closed and the latch is secure.
