Magnetic lock

*Capacity: 180 Kg *DC 12 V A magnetic lock, also known as an electromagnetic lock or maglock, is a locking device that uses the principles of electromagnetism to secure a door. Unlike traditional mechanical locks, it has no moving parts.   How It Works A magnetic lock consists of two main components:
  • Electromagnet: This is typically mounted on the door frame. It contains a coil of wire wrapped around a ferromagnetic core.
  • Armature Plate: This is a steel plate mounted on the door itself, designed to align with the electromagnet.
When an electric current is supplied to the electromagnet, it generates a powerful magnetic field. This magnetic field attracts the armature plate, creating a strong bond that holds the door securely shut. To unlock the door, the power supply to the electromagnet is interrupted, causing the magnetic field to collapse and the door to release. Magnetic locks are generally fail-safe, meaning that in the event of a power outage, they automatically unlock. This is a crucial safety feature for emergency exits, as it ensures people can evacuate a building even if the power fails.   Advantages
  • High Security: Magnetic locks can provide a very strong holding force, making them difficult to force open. They are also virtually unpickable, as there are no keyholes or cylinders.
  • Durability and Low Maintenance: With no moving parts, magnetic locks experience less wear and tear than traditional locks, leading to greater longevity and reduced maintenance needs.
  • Quick Operation: They unlock instantly when power is cut, allowing for quick release, which is beneficial in high-traffic areas or emergencies.
  • Remote Operation and Access Control Integration: Magnetic locks can be easily integrated into electronic access control systems, allowing for remote operation, key card/fob access, biometric scanning, and detailed access logging.
  • Versatility: They can be installed on various door types, including glass, wood, and metal, and are suitable for both swinging and sliding doors.
  • Ease of Installation: Compared to some other electric locks, maglocks can be relatively straightforward to install.
  Disadvantages
  • Constant Power Requirement: Magnetic locks need a continuous power supply to remain locked. This means they are dependent on electricity, and a power outage will result in the door unlocking (fail-safe).
  • Cost: While the initial cost of the lock itself might be comparable, the overall installation can be more expensive due to the need for electrical wiring, power supplies, and integration with other security systems.
  • Additional Hardware for Safety: To comply with building codes and ensure safe egress, magnetic locks often require additional hardware such as push-to-exit buttons, motion sensors, or panic bars.
  • Maintenance of Backup Systems: If battery backups are used to mitigate power outages, these batteries require regular checking and replacement.

Door Strike Lock

*Fail-Secure/Fail-Safe *Capacity: 100 Kg *DC 12 V
An electric strike is an electromechanical lock release device that replaces a standard door strike plate.
It allows a door to be opened remotely, typically via an access control system, without manually retracting the latch. When activated, the electric strike releases the latch, enabling the door to be opened. 
Here's a more detailed explanation:
Functionality:
  • Replaces Standard Strike:
    Electric strikes are installed in the door frame, taking the place of the standard strike plate. 
  • Remote Release:
    They are designed to work with various access control systems, such as keypads, card readers, or intercoms. 
  • Activation:
    When an authorized signal is received (e.g., a code is entered, a card is swiped), the electric strike releases the latch, allowing the door to be opened. 
  • Fail-Safe or Fail-Secure:
    Electric strikes can be configured in either a fail-safe or fail-secure mode. 
    • Fail-safe: In this mode, the door unlocks when power is lost, making it suitable for safety applications where access is needed during power outages. 
    • Fail-secure: In this mode, the door remains locked when power is lost, requiring power to unlock, making it suitable for high-security applications. 
How it Works:
  • The electric strike contains a solenoid, which is an electromagnet.
  • When the solenoid is activated by an electrical signal, it moves a component (like an armature) that allows the latch to move freely.
  • This movement releases the door, allowing it to be opened. 
Key Differences from Other Locks:
  • Electric vs. Magnetic Locks:
    Unlike magnetic locks, which use powerful magnets to hold the door closed, electric strikes release the latch mechanism. 
  • Remote Access:
    Electric strikes offer remote access control, allowing doors to be unlocked without manual intervention. 
  • Versatility:
    They can be used with various locking mechanisms, including cylindrical, mortise, and rim exit devices. 
Common Applications:
  • Access Control:
    Electric strikes are a core component of access control systems in commercial and residential settings. 
  • Security:
    They provide a higher level of security compared to standard locks, especially when used with fail-secure configurations. 
  • Safety:
    In fail-safe configurations, they ensure safe egress during emergencies. 
  • Specific Areas:
    They are commonly found in reception areas, daycare centers, and other locations where controlled access is needed.

Pedestrian gate electric lock with remote control

* Two remote controls included *DC 12 V pedestrian gate electric lock with a remote control is a security system that allows you to lock and unlock a walk-through gate using an electrical mechanism, typically activated by a remote control. This provides convenience and enhanced security, as you don't need a physical key to open the gate. Here's a breakdown of what it entails: How it Works:
  • Electric Lock Mechanism: Instead of a traditional manual deadbolt or latch, an electric lock uses an electrical impulse to control a bolt or latch. This impulse can come from a control board connected to various access control devices.
  • Remote Control Activation: A key component is the remote control, which sends a wireless signal (radio frequency) to a receiver connected to the lock's control system. When the signal is received and recognized, the lock is instructed to engage (lock) or disengage (unlock).
  • Integration with Gate Systems: These locks are often integrated with automatic gate openers or access control systems. When the gate closes, the lock can automatically engage, and when a remote signal is given, it disengages to allow the gate to open.
  • Power Source: Electric locks require a power source, typically low voltage (e.g., 12V DC). Many systems include a battery backup to ensure continued operation during power outages.
Types of Electric Locks Commonly Used for Pedestrian Gates:
  • Solenoid Locks: These use an electromagnet to extend or retract a bolt, securing or releasing the gate.
  • Electromagnetic Locks (Mag Locks): These consist of an electromagnet mounted on the gate frame and a metal strike plate on the gate itself. When power is applied, the electromagnet creates a powerful magnetic force that holds the gate shut. Removing power releases the lock.
  • Electric Strikes: These replace the standard strike plate on the gate frame. They contain a solenoid that, when activated, pivots or retracts to release the gate's latch. They are often combined with a traditional keyed doorknob or lever.
Key Features and Considerations:
  • Remote Operation: The primary benefit, allowing you to open or close the gate from a distance.
  • Automatic Operation: Many models automatically lock when the gate closes, improving security.
  • Fail-Safe vs. Fail-Secure:
    • Fail-Secure: The lock remains locked when power is lost. This is common for high-security applications where you want the gate to stay secure even during a power outage.
    • Fail-Safe: The lock unlocks when power is lost. This might be preferred for safety reasons, ensuring an exit path in an emergency.
  • Holding Force: This indicates the strength of the lock in resisting forced entry, measured in pounds (lbs).
  • Compatibility: Ensure the electric lock is compatible with your specific gate type (wood, metal, swing, etc.) and any existing or planned access control systems (keypads, intercoms, smart home systems).
  • Manual Override: Many electric locks include a manual release key or mechanism for use in case of power failure or remote control malfunction.
  • Durability and Weather Resistance: Given that they are outdoors, look for locks built with durable, weather-resistant materials.
  • Integration with Other Access Control: Beyond remote controls, these locks can often be integrated with:
    • Keypads (for code entry)
    • Intercom systems (audio/video communication and remote release)
    • Smartphone apps (for remote monitoring and control)
    • Biometric readers (fingerprint, face scan)
In essence, a pedestrian gate electric lock with a remote control offers a modern, convenient, and secure way to manage access to your property through a pedestrian gate.

A "pedestrian gate manual lock (two-sided key)" refers to a type of gate latch or lock that can be operated and secured with a key from both sides of the gate. Here's a breakdown of what that means and why it's useful:
  • Manual Lock: This indicates that the lock is operated by hand, typically by turning a key or a knob/lever, rather than being electric or automated.
  • Two-Sided Key (or Keyed on Both Sides): This is the key feature. It means that there is a key cylinder on both the exterior and interior sides of the gate. This allows you to:
    • Lock the gate from either the inside or the outside using a key.
    • Unlock the gate from either the inside or the outside using a key.
Why is this beneficial for a pedestrian gate?
  • Convenience: You don't have to walk around the gate to unlock it if you're on the "wrong" side.
  • Security: It provides a consistent level of security from both directions, preventing unauthorized access whether someone is trying to get in from the outside or out from the inside (if that's a concern).
  • Accessibility: It can be crucial for pedestrian gates that serve as primary entry points, offering easy access for residents or authorized personnel from either side.
Types of locks that can be two-sided keyed for gates often include:
  • Deadbolt Hook Locks: These use a hook-shaped bolt that engages with a strike plate on the gate post.
  • Mortise Locks: These are installed within a pocket cut into the gate frame, offering a clean, flush appearance and good security.
  • Rim Locks: These are surface-mounted on the gate, making them easier to install.
  • Latches with an external access kit: Some general-purpose gate latches can be converted to be two-sided key-lockable with an additional kit.
When choosing such a lock, important considerations include the gate material (wood, vinyl, metal), weather resistance, ease of installation, and the level of security required.

Gate adjustable hinges

*Steel material *Heavy-duty hinge *5-1/2” Length (Total 7-1/2”) x 4-1/2” Width *Bolt thickness: 3⁄4” Gate adjustable hinges are a type of hinge designed to allow for precise adjustments to a gate's position and alignment even after it has been installed. Unlike traditional fixed hinges, which offer little to no post-installation flexibility, adjustable hinges provide the ability to fine-tune the gate's fit. This feature is particularly beneficial for gates that may sag over time due to their weight, ground settling, or weather changes.   Why are Adjustable Hinges Important? Adjustable hinges solve common problems associated with gate installation and long-term use. Without them, realigning a sagging or misaligned gate often requires removing the gate, cutting, re-welding, and repainting the hinges, which is a time-consuming and labor-intensive process. With adjustable hinges, these adjustments can typically be made with simple tools like an Allen key or an adjustable wrench.   Key Features and Adjustments Adjustable hinges offer various levels of adjustment, which can include:
  • In/Out Adjustment: This is the most common adjustment, allowing the gate to be moved closer to or further away from the post. This helps eliminate gaps or prevent the gate from rubbing against the frame.
  • Up/Down Adjustment: This allows for vertical alignment, which is crucial for ensuring the gate clears the ground and for aligning the gate's lock with its strike plate, especially for double swing gates.
  • Left/Right Adjustment: Some advanced models offer lateral adjustment, providing ultimate flexibility in positioning the gate along its width. This can also help in adjusting the gate's tilt.
Many models also feature locking mechanisms, such as serrated washers or set screws, to ensure that once the adjustment is made, the gate remains securely in place.   Types of Adjustable Hinges Adjustable hinges come in various forms, often incorporating the adjustability into existing hinge designs:
  • Adjustable Eye Bolts: These are threaded components that allow vertical and horizontal adjustment, typically used with hook-on plates or gate pins.
  • Adjustable Band and Gudgeon Hinges: Similar to traditional band and gudgeon hinges, but with a threaded bolt and nuts for adjustment.
  • Weld-on Adjustable Hinges: Designed to be welded directly to metal gates and posts, offering strong support and adjustability.
  • Bolt-on Adjustable Hinges: These are bolted to the gate and post, making them suitable for various gate materials.
  • Barrel Hinges (Adjustable): Often featuring a set screw for up/down adjustments, suitable for heavier loads and offering a robust design.
  • Adjustable Self-Closing Hinges: Some adjustable hinges also incorporate a self-closing mechanism, which is ideal for security gates or areas where the gate needs to close automatically.
Advantages of Using Adjustable Hinges
  • Ease of Installation and Adjustment: They simplify the initial installation process by allowing for fine-tuning without needing to perfectly align everything from the start. Subsequent adjustments due to settling or wear are also quick and easy.
  • Longevity: By maintaining proper alignment, adjustable hinges reduce wear and tear on both the gate and the hinges themselves, extending their lifespan.
  • Enhanced Security: Proper alignment minimizes gaps around the gate, making it harder for unauthorized entry.
  • Versatility: They are available in various sizes and load capacities, suitable for everything from lightweight garden gates to heavy-duty industrial gates.
  • Reduced Maintenance Costs: The ability to easily adjust the gate's position can significantly reduce the need for costly repairs or re-installations.
  • Improved Aesthetics: Ensures the gate maintains a straight and professional appearance, avoiding unsightly sagging or misalignment.
  Materials and Finishes Adjustable hinges are manufactured from durable materials to withstand outdoor conditions and heavy use. Common materials include:
  • Steel: Strong and ideal for heavy-duty gates, often galvanized or treated to prevent rust.
  • Stainless Steel: Offers excellent corrosion resistance, making it perfect for outdoor and high-moisture environments.
  • Zinc-plated Steel: Provides a good balance of durability, cost-effectiveness, and rust protection.
  • Brass: Less strong than steel but used for decorative purposes due to its aesthetic appeal.
Finishes often include black powder-coating for a sleek look and added protection, or galvanization for superior corrosion resistance, especially in industrial or harsh weather conditions.

  • Nylon Rollers: Often used due to their durability, smooth operation, and resistance to corrosion. 
  • Rubber Rollers: While cheaper, they may leave marks on the gate and wear out faster. 
  • V-Groove Wheels: Suitable for specific track types and known for their longevity. 
Installation:
  • Positioning: Support rollers are typically installed on the gate posts, positioned to guide the gate along its track. 
  • Spacing: A gap of 5-10mm is usually recommended between rollers to allow for some movement and prevent them from doing all the work, especially if the gate is not perfectly balanced. 
  • Fixation: They are usually secured with bolts or by welding them to the post. 
Maintenance:
  • Lubrication:
    Applying a silicone-based lubricant to the support rollers and other moving parts can help maintain smooth operation and reduce noise.
  • Regular Inspection:
    Inspecting rollers for wear and tear or damage is recommended to ensure continued reliable performance.
