Door Electro-Catch Cable: Best 2x0.5 Cable, Installation from Main/TV Switchboard

Do you need to lead a 2x0.5 cable or something else under the door electro-catch? And where is the best way to do it? From the main switchboard or from the TV switchboard where will the switch etc. be?

What will control this electric strike?

Most often, the electric strike is connected to the door panel if it controls the intercom or to the keyboard if access control.

to the cable I would give 2x0.8 or 4x0.5 and 2 wires twisted together.

The door is to be with a button in Antabie but I would like to open it also from the button at home. There will be a video intercom from which the gate and wicket will be opened. And I don't know how to do it with the front door

on average, I understand the sense of such a solution as a button in the Antabie, but if you want it, lead the cable from the electric strike to the nearest electrical switchboard, cable from the button in the Antabou and from the button at home also to this switchboard.

If you do not order the door with the prepared installation, you will have some problems with the passage of the cable in the door leaf to the button in the door handle and with the passage of the cable between the door leaf and the door frame.

Personally, I would not play with such buttons, but I would put a code lock at the door to control the electric strike, and instead of buttons at home I would install a radio controller to be able to control the electric strike with the help of remote controls.

This colleague probably (I hope) has some vision of this installation and its interrelationships. He also knows, for example, where the power supply of these doors will be located and what is the supply of video intercom cables and where they are imported. I can only suspect that this button from the intercom should be given in parallel to the button in the door.

I would give it too.
The question is whether it is a button placed on the outside (because I saw such a solution) or inside?

So for the future I will tell you that if a colleague does not know / has any doubts, he / she leads at least one twisted-pair cable instead. There is a good chance that the one who comes after the friend will somehow embrace it.

Installed door I led to them earlier 8 × 0.5 cable from the door frame, 2x0.75 cable protrudes, unfortunately I could not be assembled and here the question is which plus and which minus? Does it not matter with the electric strike?

See for yourself, plug it in, and if it doesn't work backwards.
