SECO-LARM Electromagnetic Gate Locks with Face or Surface Mounting

Installation:

1. Determine type of gate:
a. Single-swing gate: Gate swings on one end, and comes to rest on a fixed gate post
when closed. In this case, a typical installation has the electromagnet face mounted to
the gate post, and the armature plate connected to the free end of the gate with a
Z bracket.

b. Double-swing gate: Two gates swing in the same direction when activated. The
electromagnet is fixed to the free end of one gate, and the armature plate is fixed to
the free end of the other via a Z bracket. It is important to coordinate the swing of the
gates to prevent the armature plate from closing before the magnet.

c. Sliding gate: The gate slides instead of swings away from a fixed gate post. In this
case, surface mount the electromagnet to the gate post and use an L bracket to
mount the armature plate perpendicular to it.

Note: An L bracket may also be used as a spacer for the electromagnet if the electromagnet and armature plate are not aligned properly.
