CBSA Reasoning

&&The PL65 insert is used in the 6 Series Electric Strike assembly and when attached to the host power supply, acts as a controlled access point to the building. This insert is a complete electric strike with the exception of a faceplate, mounting hardware and trim-plate which will be supplied by Rutherford Controls depending upon the needs of their clients. The faceplates, mounting hardware and trim-plates do not change the function or the essential character of the electric strike. Rutherford Controls incorporates this strike insert with the faceplates, hardware and trim-plates and sells them as a complete package for their remote entry systems.&&&&Heading 83.01 provides for locks (key, combination or electrically operated), of base metal. In the Canadian International Trade Tribunal (C.I.T.T) decision AP-95-100, the Tribunal classified the electric strikes in heading 83.01, more specifically under tariff item 8301.40.90 as locks rather than parts of locks.&&
