An electronic keeper includes a housing defining a battery chamber and an actuator chamber. An actuator is at least partially disposed within the actuator chamber. The actuator includes a strike and a magnet, and is pivotable between a first position and a second position relative to the housing. The actuator is also biased towards the first position. The electronic keeper also includes a senor disposed within the battery chamber. When a locking element is in contact with the strike, the actuator pivots from the first position towards the second position so that the magnet moves relative to the sensor.
