FAQs

What does 'fail-safe' mean?

Fail-safe means the lock requires power to stay locked. If the power is cut, the lock releases, which is a standard requirement for fire safety exits.

Can this be installed outdoors?

While the materials are durable, it is best suited for indoor or sheltered outdoor environments. Direct exposure to rain may require additional weatherproofing.

Does this include the bracket for installation?

This unit is the primary magnetic lock. Depending on your door type (out-swinging vs. in-swinging), you may need to purchase separate L or Z brackets for mounting.

Can I use a 12V power supply with this?

Yes, the lock supports both 12VDC and 24VDC operation.

Is the armature plate included?

Yes, the nickel-plated armature plate is included, which attaches to the moving part of the door.

Troubleshooting

The door does not lock when closed.

Check the power supply to ensure 12V or 24V is reaching the lock. Also, verify that the armature plate is making full, flat contact with the magnetic face.

The lock feels weak and the door can be pulled open easily.

Ensure the armature plate is not mounted too tightly or loosely; it requires a small amount of 'float' to align perfectly with the magnet surface.

The lock makes a buzzing sound.

This is often caused by a poor DC power connection or insufficient voltage. Verify all wiring connections and ensure the power supply can handle the load of the lock.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Impressive 600lbs holding force for high-security applications
  • Fail-safe design ensures building code compliance for emergency egress
  • Dual voltage compatibility simplifies integration with existing power systems
  • Robust aluminium housing offers excellent long-term durability

Cons

  • Requires constant power to stay locked (fail-safe nature)
  • Not suitable for standalone use without a power supply and access controller
  • Installation requires precision alignment to achieve maximum holding force

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should be performed by a professional or someone experienced with low-voltage electrical work. Ensure that the mounting surface is solid; a weak door frame may bend under the magnetic force, preventing the lock from engaging fully.

Compatibility

  • Input Voltage: 12VDC or 24VDC
  • Access Control: Works with standard Wiegand controllers, standalone keypads, and momentary release buttons.

Care and Maintenance

  • Surface Cleaning: Regularly wipe the face of the magnet and the armature plate with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to remove dust or debris.
  • Corrosion Check: Periodically inspect the nickel-plated armature for signs of rust or oxidation.
  • Alignment Check: Tighten mounting screws annually to account for door settling or vibration-induced loosening.
