INTRODUCTION ® The Securitron Magnalock family is state of the art in electromagnetic locking, and includes operational electrical characteristics and mounting configuration options addressed in this document. The BondSTAT “B” Magnalock Series, Bond Sensor, monitors the magnetic field. An internal sensor activates a single pull double throw (SPDT) dry-contact relay connection designed for interface to access control and/or alarm systems, which reports the status of the Magnalock.
1/2” Open end or Crescent Wrench Perform a Pre-Installation Survey NOTE 1: Additional brackets may be needed for proper installation. Specialized brackets are available through Securitron and its many product distributors.

Figure 3. Magnalock Installation on an In-Swinging Door INSTALLING A MAGNALOCK Attach the Template and Mark the Drill Holes SELECT a mounting location for the Magnalock and strike assembly. NOTE: The edge of the template should be about 1” (25.4 mm) from the latch side of the door to allow proper access at the mounting locations for drilling and tool access.
Drill the Holes for the Lock Body and Strike Plate NOTE 1: Figure 6, “Installation Drill Holes,” provides illustration for the following steps. NOTE 2: Holes #1 and #3 are 1/2” diameter and 1”deep into door. Hole #2 is 1/2” diameter and all of the way through the door.
Install the Blind Nuts NOTE: Figure 8, “Blind Nut Components,” Figure 9, “Installing the Blind Nuts,” and Figure 10, “Blind Nut Before and After Collapse,” provide illustration for the steps in this section. Figure 8. Blind Nut Components Figure 9. Installing the Blind Nuts Figure 10.
INSTALL the blind nuts using the provided collapsing tool. INSERT the assembled blind nut and installation tool into a mounting hole to install a blind nut into the 3/8” [9.5 mm] hole (see Figure 8). HOLD the install nut using a 1/2” [13 mm] box-end wrench and, at the same time, COLLAPSE the blind nut using a 3/16”...

INSTALL the roll pin bushings into the door (see Figure 13, “Installing the Roll Pin Bushings”). Figure 13. Installing the Roll Pin Bushings NOTE: Figure 14, “Strike Plate Assembly,” provides illustration for the Steps 4–6. INSERT the 5/16-18 bolt through the funnel bushing and strike plate NOTE: It may be necessary to use either 2 or 3...

NOTE: The strike plate is secured to the door via the supplied sex bolt. From the outside of the door, gently TAP the sex bolt into place (see Figure 15, “Installing the Sex Bolt”). Figure 15. Installing the Sex Bolt NOTE: The center screw should not be over tightened;...
Install the Magnalock PULL the lock wire into frame and to desired location. APPLY thread lock to mounting screws. MOUNT lock body to frame using supplied hardware (see Figure 17, “Installing the Magnalock”). Figure 17. Installing the Magnalock INSERT the tamper finish caps into the mounting screw holes (see Figure 18, “Installing the Tamper...

NOTE 1: In Figure 21, the green and white wires supply electrical connection when the lock is ON and secure. NOTE 2: In Figure 21, the orange and white wires supply electrical connection when the lock OFF or unsecure. Figure 21. Connections for BondSTAT “B” Version NOTE 1: In Figure 22, the blue and yellow wires supply electrical connection when the door condition is closed.
Figure 23. Connections for “BD” Version Wire Double Door Status NOTE: When two Magnalocks are used for double door installation, the BondSTAT contacts should be wired in series for proper reporting. CONNECT the green wire of one lock to the white wire of the other as shown in Figure 24, “Double Door Status Wiring.”...
NOTE 3: It is the user's responsibility to correctly hookup the Magnalock according to the instructions. NOTE 4: Securitron power supplies have terminals for connecting emergency release switches. USE a switch or relay to perform break of power. MAINTAINING A MAGNALOCK Perform an Inspection CHECK the rubber washers for elasticity and proper pivoting;...
TROUBLESHOOTING A MAGNALOCK CHALLENGE SOLUTION CHECK for specified voltage at Magnalock. Lock does not generate a magnetic field CHECK for specified current draw at Magnalock. CHECK DC power source is Full-Wave Rectified (Half-wave Rectifier or AC Power unacceptable). CHECK for specified voltage at Magnalock. CHECK for specified current draw at Magnalock.
CHALLENGE SOLUTION Electronic noise interference CHECK for voltage from Magnalock to door with Access Control System frame; there should be no voltage present. DETERMINING WIRE GAUGE The Magnalock requires adequate voltage and current for proper operation. Resistance is created by the length and gauge (size) of the wire being used. An accurate estimated distance from the power supply to the opening is crucial.
Page 19
Using the value obtained in Step 1, DETERMINE the proper wire gauge and length using Table 3, “ 12 VDC Wire Gauge and Length,” for a 12 VDC system, or Table 4, “24 VDC Wire Gauge and Length,” for a 24 VDC system. Table 3.
