Its IP67 weather resistance and sealed electronics make it ideal for outdoor use, ensuring reliable performance in various weather conditions. The fail-safe design means the lock remains engaged while powered and reliably unlocks during power outages due to no residual magnetism. It provides flexible activation options, compatible with push buttons, keypads, proximity readers, or remote-controlled systems. Additionally, it features selectable operating voltage, allowing you to choose between 12V DC and 24V DC to match your system requirements. Manufacturer: Amalocks.
The Amalocks SecureMyDoor IP67 Magnetic Door Lock is designed for users requiring robust and weather-resistant external access control. Its primary benefit is a powerful 1500lbs holding force and IP67 rating for reliable outdoor operation. A key consideration is its fail-safe design, which unlocks during power outages, making it unsuitable for applications where continuous locking during power loss is critical.

FAQs
What does IP67 rating mean for this lock?
An IP67 rating means the lock is dust-tight and protected against immersion in water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. This makes it highly suitable for outdoor and exposed installations.
Is this lock suitable for emergency exits?
The lock is fail-safe, meaning it unlocks when power is cut. While this can be beneficial for emergency egress during a power outage, it means it does not provide security during a power loss. It should be integrated into a broader emergency exit system that meets local regulations.
Can I install this lock myself?
Basic installation is possible if you have experience with electrical wiring and access control systems. However, precise alignment and correct wiring are crucial for optimal performance and security. Professional installation is recommended for guaranteed results.
What voltage does the lock require?
The SecureMyDoor lock features selectable operating voltage, allowing you to choose between 12V DC and 24V DC to match your power supply.
How do I clean the magnetic lock?
Use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth to clean the surfaces of the magnet and the armature plate. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish or seals.
What is the holding force measured in?
The holding force is rated at 1500lbs (pounds) or approximately 545kg (kilograms).
Does the lock stay locked during a power cut?
No, this is a fail-safe lock. It remains engaged while powered but unlocks when power is removed, ensuring it does not trap users during an outage.
Troubleshooting
Lock does not engage or hold the door.
Check power supply voltage and connection. Ensure the armature plate aligns perfectly with the magnet when the door is closed. Verify that the selected operating voltage (12V DC or 24V DC) matches the power source. Check for any obstructions preventing full contact.
Lock is constantly unlocked.
Verify that the unit is receiving continuous power. If power is intermittent or absent, the lock will not engage. Check for blown fuses or tripped breakers in the power circuit. Ensure the lock is not wired in a way that it's always de-energized.
Poor performance in wet weather.
Although rated IP67, ensure all external wiring connections are properly waterproofed and sealed. Inspect the lock housing and seals for any signs of damage or wear that could allow moisture ingress.
Lock makes noise when engaging/disengaging.
Some minor audible clicks are normal during operation. If the noise is excessive or grinding, check for loose mounting hardware or misalignment between the lock and armature plate.
Pros and Cons
Pros
Exceptional holding force for high-security applications.
IP67 rating makes it suitable for harsh outdoor conditions.
Fail-safe design enhances safety during power interruptions.
Wide compatibility with various access control systems.
Adjustable voltage input for easy integration.
Cons
Fail-safe operation means it unlocks on power loss, which may not be suitable for all security needs.
Requires a constant power supply to remain locked.
Installation may require professional knowledge of access control systems.
Magnetic locks can be susceptible to very strong external forces if not properly installed with adequate door and frame strength.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Mount the magnetic lock to the door frame and the armature plate to the door, ensuring precise alignment for optimal holding force.
Connect the lock's wiring to your chosen access control system (e.g., keypad, reader, push button, receiver) and power supply (12V DC or 24V DC).
Ensure the selected voltage matches your power supply.
Compatibility:
Operates with 12V DC or 24V DC power supplies.
Compatible with push buttons, keypads, proximity card readers, remote controls, and other access control triggers.
Requires a suitable door and frame structure to achieve maximum holding force.
Care:
Regularly clean the armature plate and the face of the magnetic lock with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth to remove dust and debris.
Inspect wiring connections periodically to ensure they are secure and free from corrosion.
Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the finish and seals.
