Office entrances, shop doors, glass and aluminium framed commercial doors, clinic doors, and internal secure rooms are all well served by this rating. It is strong enough for real commercial use without paying for force the door itself could never justify.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to choose between 180kg, 280kg and 380kg.\u003c\/strong\u003e Think about what the door is protecting and how it would be attacked. A light internal partition or a cupboard door is fine on 180kg. A main building entrance, a heavy timber door, or anything likely to be pushed hard deserves 380kg. Everything in between, which is most commercial doors, sits comfortably here. The mistake we see most often is buying the largest rating on the assumption that stronger is always better, when in practice the door leaf or frame will fail long before a correctly specified magnet does.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDouble doors need one lock per leaf.\u003c\/strong\u003e This genuinely catches people out and costs them a return visit. Two doors meeting in the middle cannot be secured by a single larger magnet, because each leaf moves independently and each needs its own lock and armature plate. When specifying a double entrance, budget for two locks, two brackets, and a power supply rated to run both continuously.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrackets, and why installations stall without them.\u003c\/strong\u003e The lock body mounts to the frame and the armature plate to the door, but which bracket you need depends entirely on the door. Inward opening doors normally take an L bracket. Frameless glass doors need a U bracket that clamps the glass. Outward opening doors and narrow aluminium sections each need their own fitting. Ordering a maglock without the matching bracket is the most common reason an electrician arrives and cannot finish the job. Send us a photograph of the door and we will supply the correct bracket with the lock.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFail safe operation and load shedding.\u003c\/strong\u003e Magnetic locks release the instant power is cut. That behaviour is exactly why they suit escape routes, and exactly why load shedding will open the door. Decide deliberately at specification stage whether this door must stay secure through an outage. If it must, plan a backup supply or UPS. If it is an escape route, the fail safe behaviour is the point rather than a drawback.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContinuous current draw matters when you have several doors.\u003c\/strong\u003e A magnetic lock consumes power for the entire time the door is locked, unlike a bolt lock which draws only when operating. One door is straightforward. Four doors on one supply is where people run into trouble, because an undersized supply produces intermittent, difficult to diagnose faults. Tell us how many doors you are running and we will size the supply correctly.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNC wiring for exit buttons.\u003c\/strong\u003e Because the lock releases when the circuit breaks, exit buttons and release devices wire as normally closed. Reversing this produces a door that either never locks or never releases, and it remains the most frequent wiring error on maglock jobs. Confirm contact types before wiring, particularly when a keypad, exit button, and break glass release all share one door.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFire alarm interfacing on escape routes.\u003c\/strong\u003e Where the door is on an escape route, wire the lock so that a fire alarm activation cuts power and releases it independently of the access control system. This is a basic life safety expectation and is routinely missed when fire and access systems are fitted by different contractors at different times. We supply both and can make sure they work together.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKeeping the holding force you paid for.\u003c\/strong\u003e Wipe the magnet face and the armature plate clean periodically. Dust, grit, and paint overspray between the two surfaces reduce holding force noticeably, and this is the usual reason a lock starts feeling weaker than its rating. Check the armature plate is still flush and has not worked loose over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs 280kg enough for a main entrance?\u003c\/strong\u003e For many commercial entrances yes, but tell us the door material and width and we will say honestly whether 380kg would be the better choice for your specific door.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill it work on a glass door?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, with the correct U bracket or patch fitting. Confirm your glass thickness with us before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need the five wire version?\u003c\/strong\u003e Only if you want lock status feedback to a controller, which suits server rooms and cash offices. For most doors the standard version is sufficient.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat happens during a power cut?\u003c\/strong\u003e The door releases, because maglocks are fail safe. Fit a backup supply if it must remain secure.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBuying from ZZ Marts.\u003c\/strong\u003e In stock at our Karachi (Saddar) and Lahore stores with nationwide delivery, supplied by Zam Zam Traders, trading in access control since 2005.
