Securitron M38DS Magnalock 600 lb | Door Position Switch, Senstat
The Securitron M38DS is a bracket-mount Magnalock electromagnetic lock designed for indoor commercial and institutional door applications requiring reliable, high-force electromagnetic locking. With a 600 lb holding force, automatic 12/24 VDC operation, and an integrated Senstat door position switch, the M38DS delivers monitored access control performance in a compact, surface-mount package. This listing is finished in 630 satin stainless and is rated for indoor use only — it carries no weatherproof or outdoor rating.
Key Features & Benefits
- 600 lb Holding Force: Provides robust electromagnetic holding suitable for interior commercial access control applications.
- Bracket-Mount Configuration: Factory-configured bracket mount simplifies installation on standard and offset door frames without requiring additional hardware modification.
- Senstat Door Position Monitoring: Integrated Senstat sensor reports door position status to access control panels — confirming whether the door is open or properly closed and secured. Note: Senstat is not BondSTAT and the two technologies are distinct.
- Automatic 12/24 VDC Operation: Auto-sensing power supply input accepts either 12 VDC (325 mA) or 24 VDC (175 mA), simplifying integration with a wide range of access control power supplies.
- UL 10C Listed – 1-Hour Fire Door Rated: Meets UL 10C positive-pressure fire door assembly requirements for 1-hour rated openings when properly installed per applicable codes.
- ANSI/BHMA A156.23 Grade 3 Certified: Independently tested and certified to ANSI/BHMA E18501-500 standards for electromagnetic locks.
- 630 Satin Stainless Finish: Corrosion-resistant finish compatible with institutional and commercial interior aesthetics.
- Compact Body Profile: At 10-1/2 in long × 2-1/2 in high × 2-1/2 in deep, the M38DS fits standard door frames with minimal visual impact.
Application Guidance & Egress Compliance
An electromagnetic lock is not a complete egress solution on its own. The M38DS must be paired with appropriate latching or locking hardware and a code-compliant fire-alarm release mechanism. A standalone push button alone is not an acceptable sole means of egress release under most applicable codes. Consult local AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction) and NFPA 101 requirements for your specific opening. This unit is rated for indoor use only — operating range 32°F to 110°F — and must not be installed in exposed outdoor or wet locations.
