Re: Electric door bump thingie

["Crash Gordon" <webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We've been thinking on this and it may work and then again it may be
finicky. We'd have to find a spring loaded side mounted plunger which I
remember seeing somewhere...sometime, but can't seem to find one now (of
course).

So far it's;
springloaded plunger
solenoid actuated pusher dealybob.

I'd even though of dumping the maglock idea and going with a handicapped
door actuator...anyone know anything about these?

btw...this system will fail-secure
