SECURITRON MODEL SAM & SAM2 SHEAR ALIGNING MAGNALOCK
INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. INTRODUCTION
The SAM/SAMSC~SAM2-24 Series Shear Lock is designed for installations where concealed
mounting in the door and frame is desired. The SAM secures the door with 1,200 lbs (544 Kg) of
holding force. The smaller SAM2 provides 600 lbs (272 Kg). The operating features allow self-
alignment while securing the door when it closes. The SAM/SAM2 is designed to operate with
swing doors, bi-directional doors and slider type doors. The SAM/SAM2 will also secure bi-parting
motorized sliding doors. The lock installs on swing doors horizontally in the top or bottom of the
door frame and also vertically in the door frame side. Slider type door applications are installed
horizontally only for proper operational functions. The SAM operates by sliding the strike plate
into alignment with the magnet face, once aligned, the lock will secure in the closed position.
The interference buttons join with the detents in the lock brackets. The strength in the shear
locking comes from a combination of magnetic holding force and the interference buttons located
on the strike plate. The design eliminates the capability of forced entry to the door by
obstructing the swing opening with the interference buttons. The lock is designed to operate in
an active or inactive state. The lock design allows continuous duty operation making the door
capable of closing and locking without use of alignment sensors. The unit will also unlock under
load applied to the door.

- Page 4 5.1 SurveyLocation of the lock mounting should be decided before proceeding with the installation. The door and frame areas need to be examined for mortising capabilities, sufficient size and without any internal obstructions. The top-of-door installation is the most suitable location for protection from impact attacks.
- Page 5 needed to mount the magnet body and flush mount brackets into place as indicated on the templates provided. The flush mount brackets are shown installed in Figure 3 and Figure 4 below. The variation in the frame thicknesses is adjustable by reversing or flipping the flush mount brackets.
- Page 6 use the shim plates provided to raise the lock to the proper finished height. The clearances behind the lock, shown In Figure 5, are only minimum depths. Mount the Magnalock into place with the wood screws provided. 1/16" Mortise Depth SAM: 1-1/8"...
- Page 7 There are several methods for mounting the strike assembly onto doors with recessed surfaces. The door recess depth determines if cutting or routing will be necessary to provide enough room for the strike assembly to mount. Reviewing the illustrations in Figure 7 and Figure 8, the door range depths are clarified.
- Page 8 5.4.4 Hard Core Wood Door There are several methods for mounting the strike assembly onto hard core wood doors. Depending on the door stile, the strike assembly may be mounted with or without the End Brackets attached. The door cut-out requires a mortise area for the strike base assembly with optional sizes depending if the use of End Bracket is desired.
- Page 9 5.5 Strike Assembly Final Adjustments 5.5.1 Strike Level Adjustment (De-energized) De-energized adjustment of the strike height is important for proper door/lock operations. The example in Figure 11 below illustrates the lock with the proper adjustment. Without power applied to the lock, both of the Interference Buttons should just clear the lock brackets. Check this by opening and closing the door.
- Page 10 6. OPERATIONAL INSTRUCTIONS The Securitron Model SAM/SAMSC and SAM2 Magnalocks are Fail Safe locking devices (power to lock). To power the Magnalock simply apply positive DC voltage to the red wire through a normally closed switch. The black wire is applied to the negative DC voltage.
- Page 11 Figure 13 6.3 “SC” SENSTAT DOUBLE DOOR WIRING Some installations contain two (2) SAM Magnalocks mounted in a double door configuration and both are turned on and off concurrently (no separate control). As to status reporting, it is of course possible to receive a separate Senstat status signal from each door or you can combine the outputs so that if both locks are secure, the double door is secure and if either lock is not secure, the double door is not secure.
- Page 12 PROBLEM-- The Senstat output does not report secure Because of the simplicity of Securitron's patented Senstat design, this is almost always a case of the lock status sensor doing its job. It is not reporting secure because a small obstruction or too stiffly mounted strike is causing the Magnalock to hold at reduced force.
- Page 13 An apparent noise problem is therefore usually not caused by the Magnalock. The access control equipment may be itself faulty or have been installed improperly. IF A PROBLEM PERSISTS CALL SECURITRON TOLL FREE AT (800) MAGLOCK PN# 500-10440 Rev. C, 6/07...

Setting the power supply at 28 volts will supply 14% over voltage and could compensate for the 15% voltage drop in the wires.
