600 lb vs. 1200 lb: Selecting the Right Holding Force

The right holding force for a double door mag lock depends on the security requirement for the door, how the door is constructed, and how frequently it is used.

A 600 lb per leaf configuration is a practical choice for standard interior commercial doors in office suites, clinic waiting room entrances, and retail back-of-house access points. It covers the majority of commercial interior door installations without over-engineering the hardware.

A 1200 lb per leaf configuration is typically specified for higher-security interior doors, including server rooms, pharmaceutical storage areas, and commercial spaces with stricter access requirements. Some kits at this holding force level also include L and Z mounting brackets for inswinging door configurations, which eliminates the need to source bracket hardware separately.

If you are unsure which holding force is appropriate for your installation, contact us before ordering.


Features Included on Every Model in This Collection

Every indoor double door electromagnetic lock in this collection is built to the same core specification. Before selecting a model, here is what each one includes and what that means for your installation.

LED Status Sensor

All models include a built-in LED status sensor that provides a visible indication of the lock's current state. When the lock is engaged and holding, the LED is lit. When power is removed and the lock releases, the LED goes out. This makes it easy to confirm lock status in the field without additional tools and gives facilities staff a reliable visual check during daily operations.

Dual Voltage Operation

Each unit in this collection accepts either 12 VDC or 24 VDC input. As a dual voltage indoor maglock, each model can connect to whichever power supply your existing access control panel uses without requiring you to specify voltage at the time of purchase. This is particularly useful in multi-door installations where power supply capacity is being calculated across several devices at once.

Inswinging Door Bracket Kits

Certain kits in this collection include L and Z mounting brackets for inswinging double doors. Without these brackets, a standard surface-mount installation is not geometrically possible on a door that swings toward you on the pull side. The L bracket provides a single-direction offset to realign the lock body with the armature plate, and the Z bracket provides offsets in two directions for configurations where the frame geometry requires additional clearance. Ordering a kit that includes both eliminates the need to source brackets separately.


Installation and Compatibility

These indoor double door magnetic locks are rated for indoor use only. They are not designed for exterior installations or environments with sustained moisture exposure. As electromagnetic locks, all models in this collection are fail-safe by design, meaning the door releases when power is cut and holds locked only while power is applied.

This fail-safe behavior is a code requirement in most commercial settings, where building egress must remain clear during a fire alarm or power failure. If you are building or expanding a commercial magnetic door lock system, confirm that your access control panel supports a fail-safe lock output and that your power supply can deliver enough current to hold both lock units simultaneously at your selected voltage. Wiring runs from the panel to each individual lock head using low-voltage cable appropriate to your panel's rated output. For replacement installations, verify the mounting dimensions against your existing door frame before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are electromagnetic door locks fail-safe or fail-secure?

Electromagnetic locks are fail-safe. They hold locked while power is applied and release automatically when power is cut. This is the standard configuration required in most commercial buildings under fire and life safety codes, because building exits must remain clear during an alarm event or a power outage. If your installation requires a lock that stays locked without power, electromagnetic locks do not provide that. That would require a fail-secure device type, such as an electric strike or electric bolt lock.

Do I need a separate power supply for each lock in a double door kit?

Not necessarily. A single power supply can drive both lock units in a double door kit as long as it has enough current capacity to cover the combined draw of both locks at the voltage you are using. Check the current draw specification for the specific model you are ordering and confirm your power supply's amperage rating at 12V or 24V before finalizing your setup.

How do these maglocks connect to a fire alarm system?

The standard method is to route the lock's power supply through a normally closed relay on the fire alarm panel. When the panel triggers, it opens the relay, which cuts power to the lock and releases the door. This is commonly called a door holder relay or magnetic lock release relay. Your fire alarm contractor or Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) can confirm the exact wiring configuration required for your building type and occupancy classification.

What is the difference between an L bracket and a Z bracket for maglock installation?

Both brackets offset the lock body so the armature plate on the door can make full contact when the door is closed. The L bracket provides a single-direction offset and is used when the door face is slightly recessed from the frame. The Z bracket provides offsets in two directions and is used when there is both a vertical and horizontal gap between where the lock body needs to mount and where the armature plate will land. Having both on hand ensures you have the right hardware for your specific frame geometry.

Can these maglocks be installed on glass doors?

Yes, but additional hardware not included in these kits is required. Glass door installations need a frameless glass door clamp or top rail header that provides a mounting surface for the armature plate on the door itself. The lock body mounts to the frame or a header bracket above the door. Before ordering for a glass door installation, confirm that the glass thickness and edge treatment are compatible with the clamp hardware you plan to use.

Is 600 lbs of holding force sufficient for a commercial door?

For most standard interior commercial doors, yes. A 600 lb holding force per leaf is adequate for offices, clinics, and similar environments where the primary requirement is controlled access rather than resistance to forced entry. For higher-security interior doors where forced entry is a greater concern, specifying the 1200 lb configuration is the more conservative choice. Access control integrators and building security consultants typically make this call based on the door's location and the risk profile of the space it secures.
