Double Z & L Bracket for ML600 Double Range of Maglocks Use

In high-traffic commercial environments, double doors present a unique challenge for access control. The Double Z and L Bracket is specifically engineered to facilitate the installation of two electromagnetic locks (Maglocks) on a pair of inward-opening (pull-to-open) doors. While a single bracket set manages one leaf, the Double Z and L Bracket provides a unified mounting platform for the “master” and “slave” leaves, ensuring that both magnets and their corresponding armature plates meet with mathematical precision.

The configuration consists of a continuous or dual “L” bracket to secure the magnets to the head of the door frame, paired with two independent “Z” bracket assemblies for the door leaves. This setup is essential because inward-opening doors do not offer a flat surface for standard maglock mounting; the Double Z and L Bracket creates the necessary offset to allow the doors to swing inward while maintaining a combined holding force of up to 2400lbs (1100kg), depending on the locks used.

Why the Double Z and L Bracket is the Professional Standard

Constructed from architectural-grade anodized aluminum, the Double Z and L Bracket offers the structural rigidity needed to prevent “door flex,” which can compromise electronic security.

• Reinforced Dual-Leaf Support: The Double Z and L Bracket is designed to handle the weight and kinetic energy of two heavy timber or metal doors.

• Multi-Axis Adjustability: Features elongated slots in the Double Z and L Bracket to allow for independent leveling of each armature plate against its magnet.

• High-Tensile Aluminum Build: Forged from 6063-T5 aluminum, ensuring the Double Z and L Bracket never bends or shears under the pressure of the maglock’s pull.

• Aesthetic Continuity: Provides a clean, symmetrical look across the top of the double door frame, hiding unsightly gaps and wiring.

• Anti-Corrosion Anodized Finish: The Double Z and L Bracket is resistant to oxidation, making it suitable for air-conditioned offices and industrial warehouses alike.

• Vibration-Dampening Design: Includes specialized hardware to reduce the “shudder” often felt when high-powered magnets engage or release.

• Standardized Compatibility: Designed to fit most industry-standard 600lb (280kg) and 1200lb (545kg) double maglock units.

Achieve a High-Security Double Door Install

The secret to a successful Double Z and L Bracket installation lies in the “center gap” alignment. We recommend mounting the L-brackets first, ensuring they are perfectly level across the entire span of the door frame. Because double doors often sag slightly toward the center, the adjustability of the Double Z and L Bracket allows you to “tilt” the armature plates to ensure 100% surface contact with the magnets—a requirement for achieving the rated holding force.

For maximum security, ensure that the cabling for the maglocks is routed through the hollow center of the Double Z and L Bracket (where applicable) to protect the wires from tampering. Maintenance is limited to a biannual check of the mounting bolts to ensure they haven’t vibrated loose. Secure your double entryways with a Double Z and L Bracket that offers professional-grade precision and rock-solid reliability.
