Electromagnetic Locks

Electromagnetic locks are locks that have two main pieces: the armature that is mounted to the door and the magnetic lock assembly that is mounted to the frame. Electromagnetic locks are often called Magnetic Locks or even just “Mag Locks”.Electromagnetic locks use magnetic force and thus do not require a mechanical latch bolt to lock the door. This makes them very suitable for emergency and fire exits. In case of emergency, electromagnetic locks automatically release the doors upon power cutoff.
