A magnetic door lock is a lock that uses an electric current to produce the magnetic force. Due to the increased strength because of the current, the doors can withstand pressure, so they can’t be forced open without the use of the confirmed access method.
Not unlike what you learn about magnetics, magnetic locks work by north and south end meeting and sealing, but magnetic door locks use an electrical current to produce a stronger magnetic force.
Magnetic door locks use an electromagnetic force to stop doors from opening, so they are ideal for security. Maglocks, such as the Deadlock mag locks are made up of an electromagnet and an armature plate. The plate is attached to the door and the magnetic to the door frame. Depending on the lock chosen, depends on the voltage – and strength – of the electromagnetic force. The rule of thumb is the more expensive the electromagnetic lock the higher the holding force, it can range anything from 250kg all the way up to an impressive 1000kg.
An electromagnetic lock creates a magnetic field when energized or powered up, causing an electromagnet and armature plate to become attracted to each other strongly enough to keep a door from opening. As they require power to remain locked, this allows them to be fail-safe, making electromagnetic door locks safe for use as emergency exits. If the power was to go out in a fire via a fire relay or call button, the door would unlock, allowing people to exit the building.
Electromagnetic locks are commonly used in hotels, offices, and residential blocks as they are secure, reliable and quick to install, as there are few components.

1. Check whether there is a rubber gasket.
2. Check the iron plate end to see if the screws are too loose.
3. Check whether the distance between the magnetic lock body and the suction plate is proper.
1. Check whether the 1A/12V/24V output of the power supply is reduced.
2. Check whether there is any foreign matter (such as dust, rust, foreign matter, etc.) on the surface of the magnet.
1. Check whether the iron plate is equipped with pins.
2. Check whether the iron plate has rubber pads.
3. It is recommended that customers put the screws on the "screw fixing agent.
1. Check whether the main surface of the magnetic lock and the iron plate is completely engaged and free of foreign matter, or adjust the iron plate to loosen it and try.
2. Check whether the voltage and current are sufficient.
1. The "delay adjustment" of the magnetic lock starts timing after power on, not after closing the door.
2. The delay of the magnetic lock is 0, 3, 6, 9 seconds. Check if the time is set to 9 seconds.
Check whether the voltage is sufficient to supply the electromagnetic lock requirements (1A current/12V voltage should be supplied)
