Securitron M68DL Magnalock 1,200 lb | LED, Door Position Switch
The Securitron M68DL is a heavy-duty, bracket-mount electromagnetic lock delivering 1,200 lb of holding force for high-traffic commercial door openings. Designed for indoor applications only, this Magnalock integrates a built-in door position switch (Senstat) and status LED, giving access control systems real-time door state feedback without external sensors. The M68DL operates on an automatic 12/24 VDC dual-voltage circuit (250 mA at 12 VDC / 125 mA at 24 VDC), simplifying integration into a wide range of access control panels. This listing is finished in 630 satin stainless steel.
Important egress note: An electromagnetic lock is not a standalone egress solution. The M68DL must be paired with compliant latching hardware and a fire-alarm release per applicable code. A standalone push button alone does not satisfy egress release requirements — consult local authority having jurisdiction (AHJ) and applicable NFPA, IBC, and ADA requirements during specification.
Key Features & Benefits
- 1,200 lb Holding Force: Engineered for demanding commercial openings including stairwells, server rooms, restricted corridors, and institutional facilities.
- Bracket Mount: Factory-configured for installations where the lock body and armature must be offset — ideal for aluminum storefront frames, hollow metal doors with limited header depth, or doors that swing free of the frame face.
- Integrated Door Position Switch (Senstat): Monitors actual door closed/open state and reports to the access control host — distinct from BondSTAT armature-contact sensing. Both inputs give your system richer door intelligence without additional field hardware.
- Status LED: Provides at-a-glance visual confirmation of lock state directly at the door — useful for maintenance staff and security monitoring.
- Dual-Voltage Auto-Sensing: Automatic 12/24 VDC operation reduces field wiring errors and simplifies replacement or retrofit into existing power infrastructure.
- UL 10C Listed – 1-Hour Fire Door: Rated for use on 1-hour fire-rated assemblies, supporting code-compliant installation on fire-rated openings.
- ANSI/BHMA A156.23 Grade 2 Certified: Independently tested and certified to E18501-1000 — a verifiable third-party quality benchmark for electromagnetic locks.
- Indoor Rated, 32–110 °F: Optimized for controlled interior environments; not suitable for exterior or weatherexposed openings.
- Compact Profile: Body measures 10-1/2 in long × 3-5/8 in high × 2 in deep — fits standard commercial door frames without significant header modification.
- 630 Satin Stainless Finish: Corrosion-resistant finish coordinates with contemporary commercial hardware programs.
Typical Applications
- Office building secured corridors and stairwell re-entry doors
- Healthcare and institutional access-controlled openings
- Data centers and server room entry points
- Education facility controlled egress points (with compliant release hardware)
- Government and municipal secured interior doors
