Pre-Installation Considerations
• Use ONLY the hardware provided for mounting this product
(NOTE: Non-standard Door thickness may require different sex nut
hardware – see specific instructions for required hardware).
• Follow the installation procedure as described in this manual.
• Check door thickness. If the door is not 1 3/4” thick, a different sex
nut will be required.
• Check door header. A minimum 2 3/4” thick, flat surface is needed
to securely mount all screws for the magnet. If you do not have the
required surface, you will need filler plates and/or angle brackets to
properly mount the magnet.
Important Notes

Door: 1 3/4” Thick

The electromagnetic lock requires a
face-to-face fitting as shown in Figure
otherwise, the holding force will be
greatly decreased (direction of
hydraulic press pull must be collinear).
Remove any diode installed across the
magnetic lock for spike suppression.
The magnet is fitted with a metal oxide
varistor to prevent back EMF.
Make sure the contact area of the
electromagnetic lock and the
armature plate are clean.
Wipe the surface of magnetic lock
with anti-rust oil regularly.
Brackets installation are according to door swing direction and door frame type, e.g. narrow frame door, frameless glass door, inswing door, etc.
