Magnalock Preparation and Installation
Performing a Pre-Installation Survey
1. Before installing the Magnalock, DETERMINE and ASSESS the
mounting location for the following:
• Physical strength of the frame— it should be strong enough
to meet or exceed the holding force of the Magnalock.
• Frame and vicinity— it should offer protection for the wiring to
prevent vandalism.
• Door inspection—it should be inspected for any obstacles that
may interfere when mounting the strike plate.
• Proper mounting—The Magnalock M380 comes with factory
default mounting for use with an outswing door. Securitron
should be contacted for available brackets for other
installation configurations.
Positioning the Camera and PIR REX Module Locations
in the Magnalock
NOTE 1: The physical position of the camera or PIR REX Module may
be reconfigured for either end of the Magnalock, as desired.
NOTE 2: If the Magnalock is equipped with both camera and PIR,
each module position may be reversed from the factory
default positions (see Figure 1, “Camera and PIR
Reversing.”

1. To remove or install a module, COMPRESS the legs of the support
bracket and SLIDE the module bracket in or out of the retaining rails
(see Figure 2, “Removing and Installing a Module”).

2. REMOVE, REPOSITION, and REINSTALL the module inserts in the
cover, as necessary, using a #1 Phillips screwdriver (see Figure 3,
“Removing, Repositioning, and Reinstalling the Module Inserts.”

Preparing the Magnalock
NOTE: Removing the cover provides access to the circuit board and
on the back of the magnet.
1. Using a Phillips screwdriver, REMOVE the two (2) screws securing
the cover, as shown in Figure 4, “Removing the Cover Screws.”
2. SET the screws aside to re-attach the cover later.
