Rev. A.3, 5/00

Use of the Magnalock (or any lock) can lead to an unsafe condition within the building if it is controlled in a manner that improperly restricts passage through certain doors. The most important area of concern is to insure that building evacuation is not im peded in the event of a fire or other em ergency condition. Consult with the local building or fire department to insure that the controls installed with the Magnalock create a safe and code legal installation.

The Magnalock has an unlimited operating life and receives a great deal of cumulative shock over this life from the door closing and from persons attempting to open the door when it is secured. It is therefore vital that it be firmly m ounted to the door header. If this is not done, a person's use of the door could cause the m agnet body to fall and possibly cause an inj ury. The blind nuts furnished with the Magnalock will create strong and permanent mounting when correctly collapsed inside the header. If they are not collapsed, an unsafe condition will re sult . Make sure you understand section 2.3.2 in the manual on magnet mounting and collapsing the nuts.

- SHOCK HAZARD. The Magnalock must

be operated from a DC power supply of appropriate capacity and voltage. The DC output of the power supply must not be connected to earth ground but must be isolated, or a shock hazard and possible damage to the product could result. All Securitron power supplies are delivered with isolated DC outputs and the majority of commercial supplies are also furnished this way. If you are not certain that the DC outputs of your power supply are isolated, check with an Ohmmeter between earth ground and +V, and then between earth and 0V (negative). You should not have continuity.

1. DESCRIPTION

Secu rit ron ’s Magnal ock famil y rep resen ts the stat e of th e art in el ect ric l ock ing . Three d if feren t size models are available: The Model 32 and M odel 34 s eries wit h a h ol d ing f orce of 600 lb s. (275 Kg. ); Th e Model 62 series with a h old in g forc e of 1, 200 lb s. (550 Kg .) and the model 82 series wit h a h oldin g f orce of 1,800 lbs. (820 Kg.). Several mou nting and electronic options are available whic h are des c r ibed in this manual. Note that m os t points in this manu al appl y to the entire Magnalock series. When a point applies to a particular Magnalock version, this will be specifically noted.

2. PHYSICAL INSTALLATION

2.1 SURV E Y

Becau se of th e wide variety of situ ations in whic h th e Magnal ock m ay b e ut ilized , f irst survey the physical area in which it is to be installed and determine the best method of mounting it. In this initial planning two considerations come into play: the mounting method must be strong enough so that the full holding power of the Magnalock can be effective, and the Magnalock and wiring must be protected to a reasonable degree from damage by intruders or vandals. Often an accessory bracket is necessary, either furnished by Securitron or made up by the install er. The brackets that can be used are covered later. Note that Magnal ocks are supplied with a complete set of fasteners. When s hipped outside of North America, metric fast eners ar e supplied and therefore the drawings in this manual show both US and metric fasteners.

2.2 INSTALLATION TOOL KIT

Secu rit ron offers an in st al lat ion tool kit (p art # IK or IKM, for m etr ic u se) wh ich in cl ud es s pec ial drills, a drilling template, a blind nut collapsing tool and extra fasteners and hardware. If the install ation is for a larg e n umber of locks or if the installer exp ects to p erform oth er inst al lations, we recommend the purchase of this kit as it reduces installation labor and improves job quality.

2.3 GENERAL INSTALLATION ON OUTSWINGING DOOR

The Magnalock should be mounted under the door frame header in the corner farthest from the hinges (see Figure 4). Most commonly, it is positioned horizontally but vertical positioning sh oul d also be cons ider ed. In some cases f or examp le, th e h oriz ont al head er on an al um inu m frame glass door is not as strong as the vertical extrusion, so vertical mounting would be pr eferr ed. This ty pe of in stal l ation p l aces t he Mag nal ock su ch th at th e d oor swin g s away f rom it. Th is configuration is necessary for all facility exit doors (otherwise, the Magnalock would be on t he out side of the b uil din g). F or int erior d oors, the Magnal ock shou ld stil l be m ount ed in this manner unless security planning anticipates a physical assault on the Magnalock from that sid e of the door in which cas e s ee s ec tion 2.4 on inswingin g door instal lation .

2.3. 1 S TRIKE PLATE MOUNT ING The strike should be mounted before the magnet on the upper corner of the door. The first

step is to locate the precise place you intend to mount the strike including deciding whether

you want to m oun t th e Magn al ock h orizon t all y or vertical l y (s ee Sect ion 2. 3.2). Th e top of th e strike should be positioned about 1/10" (2.5mm) below the line where the door meets the door stop, or below the header if there is no door stop to permit free closing. If the strike is mounted vertically instead of horizontally, increase this stand-off distance to 2/10" (5mm). More clear ance is n eeded on a vert ic al mount b ec ause the strike projects out from the door and can s c r ape the s ide frame as the d oor s wings c losed on its arc . Final posit ioning of the strike is dictated by the desired position of the magnet. The strike must be centered on the magnetic poles (3 bars) and th e magnet is n ormally moved an inch or so in (or down) from the frame corner so that the magnet mounting holes will not have to be drilled awkwardly in the corner.

When the strike position has been chosen, step t wo is to d ril l th ree h ol es in th e d oor f oll owin g the template. Step three is mounting the white plastic bushings which surround and insulate the roll pins in to the 1/2" (12.7mm) holes. The bu shing s are employed to insu late th e strike electrically from a metal door and also help preven t the r oll pins f r om wear ing t he door.

Step four is to insert the strike mounting hardware. Roll pins furnished with the strike should be hammered into th e strike. Be careful not to hit them too hard as it is possible to raise dents on the strike surface by over driving the pins which degrades strike flatness and therefore holding force. The strike is secured by the central strike mounting screw. Two flexible washers are then placed between the strike and the door with the strike mounting screw passing through the washers to provide flexibility. A third rubber washer is furnished. This is not normally used but may be employed in case the spacing of the magnet and strike is a little off. Add ing th e third washer will move the strike closer to the magnet. Do not place t he washers around the roll pins. The roll pins should "float" in their holes and not bind. Their only purpose is to p reven t th e strike from rotating or spinning.

In step fi ve, the strike is secured to the door via the supplied sex bolt. Note that we supply a massive 1 1/4” diamet er sex bol t as it is t he on l y p oin t of att ack f rom t he ou t sid e of t he d oor. It can be difficult to align the strike mounting screw with the sex bolt, so the following technique is recommended : Start the sex bolt in its 1/2" (12.7 mm) hole b ut thread t he strike mountin g screw into it (with strike plate and washers) before hammering the sex bolt down. Next, hammer the sex bolt d own and then screw the strike mountin g screw in the rest of the way. This m ak es align m ent much easier .

Step six is to verify proper mounting. When the strike is mounted, make sure it flexes freely around the washer stack. This flexing allows the Magnalock to pull the strike into

perfect align ment f or maximum hold ing f orce. It is never poss ibl e f or a d oor an d f rame to l in e up well enough for the Magnalock to function unless the strike is allowed to flex.

2.3.2 MOUNTING THE MAGNET Step one is to locate the mounting position of the magnet. It will mount in the door frame

header with four soc k et cap mac hine sc r ews for metal fram es or wood sc r ews for wood frames. In mounting the Magnalock, six conditions must be followed:

-- The frame header mus t present a fl at surface for th e magnet to mount to. 1 7/8” (48mm) for the model 34, 2 1/4” (57mm) for the model 32 and 2 1/2" (63.5mm) for the model 62 an d 82 are req uired f r om the door to the rear of the magnet f or prop er mountin g (as shown in Fig ure 4) . If th is len g th of flat surf ace is n ot avail abl e, th e u se of stop filler plates and/or head er bracket s availab le from Securitr on can usually r es olve the probl em . Again, r efer to Figure 4.

-- The frame area selected must be structurally strong enough to yield a properly secure ins tal l ation . Th e issu e of fram e str eng t h m us t b e c ons ider ed in sel ectin g vertical or hor izon tal mounting. One often finds on aluminum headers that the horizontal extrusion is weak and can be snapped off, so vertical mounting would be preferred. It is also possible to reinforce the head er b y ad d in g a s teel p lat e. Th e in stal l er mu st avoid mou n tin g t h e m agn et t o a wob b l y or weak support or the intrinsic security of the lock will be diminished.

-- The magnet face must be parallel to the strike plate.

-- The magnetic poles (three metal bars on the Magnalock), must be centered on t he strike.

-- The magnet must make solid contact with the strike but still allow the door to close properly.

-- Th e direction of door opening must p ull the st r ik e d irect ly aw ay from the magnet rather than sl iding it away. Electromagnet s hold only weak ly in the shear direc tion of pul l.

On ce a solid fl at sur face has been p repar ed for t he mag net, it mu st be posit ioned so that its face is parallel an d centered to the strike pl ate. When th e magnet has been experimentally positioned this way, it's ready for mounting.

Rev. A.3, 5/00 Page- 4

In step two, hol es mu st be drilled for the mounting screws, and a 1/2" (12.7mm) d iameter wireway hole should be drilled. Step three is to install the blind finishing nuts. For proper strengt h, the 1/4-20 (or 6mm) mountin g machine screws must be secured by t hese nuts. They will work on any th ickn ess metal header and are used as fol lows: A 3/8" (9.5 mm) hole is drilled following the template for each nut. The nut is then pressed u p into the hole and lightly seated with a hammer tap. The nut is then collapsed inside the header. If you have Securitron's IK ins tallation kit , the nut s m ay be collapsed by t he use of the blin d nut placem ent tool. A s pecial collapsing tool is also included with each Magnalock. It is somewhat slower to use than the more elaborate tool found in the installation kit. For its use, see Figure 3.

Step four is to make the necessary wire connections. S t ep five is to mount the magnet via the supplied machine screws (see Figure 1). Don't forget to use the gold flat washers. They prevent the narrow screw heads from digging into the resin which could cause damage. Tighten the screws to a snug fit only. Use the supplied thread-lock on t he screw t hread s t o avoid th e p ossib il ity of t he s crews l oosen in g over time. Do not drill out the mounting holes

to make f or an easier fit. You may cut an internal wire and void the warranty.
