Magnetic Door Lock Price in Pakistan + Z & L Bracket Guide (2026)
Quick answer: In 2026, magnetic door locks (maglocks) in Pakistan cost from around Rs 2,300 for a 60kg–180kg lock, Rs 3,500–5,000 for a 280kg lock, and Rs 6,000–8,000 for a heavy 380kg lock. If your door is frameless glass, outward-opening, or narrow, you will also need a Z bracket, L bracket, or ZL bracket set (roughly Rs 800–2,500) so the lock has a surface to hold. This guide covers maglock prices, which holding force you need, and exactly which bracket suits your door.

Which holding force do you need?
Holding force is how hard the lock resists being pulled open. For most interior office and home doors, a 280kg maglock is the standard, reliable choice. Step up to 380kg for heavy timber or metal doors, external entrances, or where security matters most. Lighter 60kg–180kg locks suit cabinets and light internal doors. When in doubt, size up — the price difference is small and the extra hold is worth it.
Do you need a Z bracket, L bracket, or ZL bracket?
This is the part most buyers miss. A maglock needs the lock body on the frame and a metal armature plate on the door, flush against each other. On a standard inward-opening door with a frame, they mount directly. But many doors need a bracket:
- L bracket — for inward-opening doors where the frame has no flat surface for the armature; the L bracket gives the armature somewhere to sit.
- Z bracket — for outward-opening doors; the Z shape lets the armature face the lock correctly.
- ZL bracket set — the combined Z and L kit, the most common solution, used for outward-opening and many frameless or narrow doors.
- U bracket — for frameless glass doors, the armature clamps to the glass with no drilling.
Match the bracket to how your door opens and its material. Browse maglocks and their brackets in the door locks collection, or ask our staff to confirm the right set for your door.
Maglock vs electric drop bolt
A maglock is fail-safe — it unlocks when power is cut, which is ideal for safe exit in emergencies and the usual choice for glass and office doors. An electric drop bolt physically throws a bolt into the frame and can be fail-safe or fail-secure; it suits wooden and some glass doors. For most access-control setups in Pakistan, a maglock plus an exit button is the simplest, most reliable combination.
What a complete maglock door needs
A working setup is more than the lock: you need the maglock + correct bracket, a 12V power supply (ideally with battery backup so the door still releases in a power cut), an exit button inside, and your entry method (keypad, card or fingerprint from an access control system). Budget roughly Rs 8,000–20,000 for a complete single door depending on the lock and reader.
Magnetic locks for business
For offices, shops and factories controlling multiple doors, standardise on 280kg or 380kg maglocks with battery-backed power and a proper access controller so you can log and manage entry. Our Karachi and Lahore teams can spec and quote multi-door projects.
