Heavy-Duty Security: 600lb vs. 1200lb Systems
Not all magnetic locks are created equal. Choosing the right holding force is critical for your specific application.
1200lb Maglocks (Perimeter Security)
For exterior doors, shipping receiving bays, and main warehouse entrances, you need maximum resistance.
The "Bulldozer" Standard: These locks can withstand over half a ton of force, making them virtually immune to kicking or prying attacks.
Bond Sensors: Our industrial units include built-in sensors that alert your security panel if the door is forced open or if the magnet isn't seating correctly.
600lb Maglocks (Traffic Control)
Perfect for interior office doors, server rooms, or "employees only" zones. They provide sufficient security to stop wandering visitors without the bulk of the larger industrial unit
Seamless Integration for Logistics & Operations
A lock is only as good as the system controlling it. We integrate your maglocks with tools that streamline your daily workflow.
Keypads & Biometrics: Eliminate physical keys. Give your staff PIN codes or install fingerprint readers for high-security areas like inventory cages.
Video Intercoms for Deliveries: Drivers can buzz the warehouse manager from the loading dock. You can visually verify the driver and release the maglock remotely—no more running to the back door.
Card Access Systems: Track exactly who entered the stockroom and when.
FDNY Compliance for Industrial Spaces
Warehouses are high-scrutiny environments for fire safety. Installing a lock that blocks emergency egress can result in massive fines or facility shutdowns.
We ensure your system is 100% legal.
Emergency Release: We install the mandatory motion sensors (REX) that cut power to the lock the moment someone approaches to exit.
Fire Panel Tie-In: We hardwire your maglocks to the central fire alarm system. If the alarm triggers, every magnetic lock in the building releases automatically to ensure safe evacuation.
Installation Expertise: Mounting for Any Door Type
Industrial doors in Brooklyn and Queens are rarely standard. We have the mounting hardware and expertise for every scenario.
In-Swing Doors: We utilize specialized Z-Brackets to mount the armature plate correctly on doors that swing inward.
Metal & Fire Doors: We use through-bolt mounting techniques that maintain the fire rating of your steel doors.
Wire Protection: In rough environments, exposed wires get cut. We install armored door loops and conduit to protect your cabling from forklifts, pallets, and vandalism.
FAQS
Are magnetic locks legal in NYC?
Yes, but they are strictly regulated by the FDNY. To avoid fines, your installation must follow the "Rule of Three": it requires a motion sensor for automatic exit, a "Push to Exit" button as a backup, and integration with your building’s fire alarm to automatically unlock during an emergency. We ensure every system we install meets these codes.
Can you install a magnetic lock on a frameless glass door?
Absolutely. We use specialized "U-bracket" housings designed specifically for Herculite (frameless) glass doors. This allows us to slide the lock onto the top of the glass and secure it with high-strength adhesive and set screws, requiring zero drilling into the glass itself.
What happens if the power goes out? Will we be locked in?
No. Magnetic locks are "Fail-Safe" devices, meaning they require electricity to stay locked. In the event of a power outage or fire alarm trigger, the power cuts and the door automatically unlocks, ensuring safe exit compliance.
How do I unlock the maglock from the outside?
A magnetic lock needs a "trigger" to release. We integrate them with your preferred access control method—whether that is a keypad, key fob reader, card swipe, or a video intercom system—allowing authorized staff to enter while keeping the door secured against the public.
600lbs vs. 1200lbs: Which holding force do I need?
For standard interior office doors or traffic control, a 600lb lock is sufficient. For main perimeter entrances, exterior gates, or warehouses where forced entry is a real concern, we recommend the 1200lb model for maximum holding strength.
