Adjustable Z & L Bracket for ML600 Range of Maglocks Use

In the world of access control, the Adjustable Z and L Bracket is a fundamental requirement for any inward-opening (pull-to-open) door installation. Standard electromagnetic locks are designed for outward-opening doors where the magnet and armature plate meet naturally; however, an inward-opening configuration requires the Adjustable Z and L Bracket to reposition the hardware. The “L” bracket is used to mount the magnet to the door frame, while the “Z” bracket (consisting of two interlocking pieces) secures the armature plate to the door leaf.

What sets the Adjustable Z and L Bracket apart is its slotted design. This allows for fine-tuned horizontal and vertical adjustments during installation, ensuring the armature plate remains perfectly parallel to the magnet face. This precise contact is critical; even a minor gap can significantly reduce the holding force of the lock, compromising the security of the entire entryway.

Why the Adjustable Z and L Bracket Series is the Professional Choice

Crafted from high-tensile architectural aluminum, the Adjustable Z and L Bracket provides a rigid, vibration-resistant platform that can withstand the constant mechanical stress of a high-traffic door.

• High-Strength Anodized Aluminum: The Adjustable Z and L Bracket is finished in a durable satin coat that resists corrosion and scratching.

   

• Fully Slotted Adjustment Rails: Features elongated mounting holes in the Adjustable Z and L Bracket to compensate for uneven door frames or warped timber.

• Universal Maglock Compatibility: Designed to fit standard 600lb (280kg) or 1200lb (545kg) electromagnetic locks.

• Inward-Opening Specialization: The Adjustable Z and L Bracket provides the necessary offset to allow the door to swing freely while maintaining a secure lock.

• Sandblasted Professional Finish: Provides an understated, architectural look that blends seamlessly with commercial door hardware.

   

• Anti-Residual Magnetism Design: The material properties of the Adjustable Z and L Bracket ensure it does not interfere with the lock’s release timing.

• Complete Hardware Kit: Every Adjustable Z and L Bracket is supplied with high-tensile bolts, washers, and specialized armature fixings.

Achieve a High-Security Installation

When installing an Adjustable Z and L Bracket, the secret to longevity is the “floating” armature setup. The Adjustable Z and L Bracket includes a rubber washer that should be placed behind the armature plate; this allows the plate to pivot slightly and find its own “seat” against the magnet.

For heavy-duty commercial applications, we recommend applying a medium-strength thread-locking fluid to the bolts of the Adjustable Z and L Bracket. This prevents the hardware from loosening over time due to the repeated impact of the door closing. Elevate your security infrastructure with an Adjustable Z and L Bracket that offers the perfect balance of easy installation and rock-solid reliability.
