Electronic Locking & Maglocks

We have a large range of electronic releases, from the heavy duty Trimec release to the Asec basic rim release for internal doors. The key considerations include the required holding force of the maglock or rating of the electronic release based upon the door security level required and the traffic expected to pass through the electronic release system. Maglocks & electronic releases can be supplied to inward or outward opening doors. Mini maglocks era suitable for low risk doors. Standard maglocks offer a greater holding force while shear maglocks offer the best security as a bolt is drawn into a strike plate by the magnetic solenoid upon activation, vastly improving the holding force of the maglock.

Both maglocks and mortice/rim releases can be supplied as part of a standalone audio video access control kit. We are authorised distributors for Videx, Paxton, Trimec, Adams Rite, Asec and others.
