LOX Locking

Choose LOX Hardware by Function

An electric strike releases a compatible latch at the door frame; a maglock uses an electromagnet and armature; an electric drop bolt operates a bolt mechanism; and a cabinet lock secures a smaller enclosure or door. A magnetic door holder performs a hold-open function and must not be confused with a security lock. Confirm the door type, access-control interface, egress requirements and mounting constraints before choosing a device.

Electric Strikes: ES10, ES10M and ES20

The ES10 listing specifies 12/24 VDC, IP56 and site-selectable fail-secure/fail-safe operation. The ES10M is the monitored variant with door/latch monitoring. The ES20 listing specifies 10-30 VDC, a 10 mm standard strike lip and site-interchangeable fail-secure/fail-safe function. Compare latch geometry, frame profile, environmental exposure, monitoring outputs and supply requirements; these models are not direct substitutes.

Electromagnetic Locks and Compatible Brackets

The EM3500DM double maglock is listed with 280 kg holding force, Hall Effect lock-status sensing, reed-switch door-status sensing and a red/green LED indicator. The EM5700DM-BLK double maglock is listed at 580 kg holding force with lock and door-status sensing. Check whether a listed force rating applies to the specific leaf or complete assembly, and confirm the door configuration, release arrangement and mounting requirements. The AMZB4D-BLK bracket is listed for EM3500DM-BLK; AMZB1D-DSS-BLK is listed for EM5700DM-BLK. Do not assume bracket interchangeability.

Electric Drop Bolts: Power-Loss Behaviour Matters

The DB1260PTL is listed as power-to-lock (fail-safe), while the DB1260PTO is listed as power-to-open (fail-secure). Both listings specify 12/24 VDC and up to 300 kg holding strength. Verify the manufacturer terminology and actual unlocked/locked state on power loss for the specific variant before specifying either device. Also check the door construction, mortise dimensions, monitoring and required egress behaviour.

Magnetic Door Holders and Cabinet Locks

The 35770/300/S/90 magnetic door holder is listed as a 300 mm, 12/24 VDC, up-to-50 kg hold-open device with wall/floor mounting and 90-degree positioning. The R40PCH-24 is listed at 24 VDC and up to 25 kg with wall mounting and extension. For cabinets, CL0001 is listed as a 12/24 VDC surface-mount lock with factory-set fail-secure and field-changeable fail-safe options; CL0002 is a monitored 12/24 VDC surface-mount model. Check fit, door motion, mounting and monitoring for each.

How to Specify LOX Locking for Australian Projects

Start with the opening schedule: door/frame material, leaf arrangement, lock or latch type, operating voltage, monitoring outputs, environmental exposure, required power-loss state and approved egress arrangement. Match the full model suffix and accessory code to the manufacturer instructions. Fire-door, emergency-exit and access-control applications require project-specific assessment; a brand name or holding-force figure alone does not establish suitability.

LOX Locking — Frequently Asked Questions

What LOX Locking products does SCHNAP list?

Selected electric strikes, double maglocks, magnetic door holders, electric drop bolts, cabinet locks and matching accessories. Check the live catalogue for current availability.

What is the difference between ES10 and ES10M?

The ES10 is listed as a non-monitored electric strike; ES10M is the monitored variant with door/latch monitoring. Confirm the full code and manufacturer documentation.

How do DB1260PTL and DB1260PTO differ?

The draft listings describe PTL as power-to-lock (fail-safe) and PTO as power-to-open (fail-secure). Verify the actual power-loss state and egress requirements before ordering.

Are LOX maglock brackets interchangeable?

No. Match the full bracket code and supported maglock model, including suffix and finish.

Is a magnetic door holder the same as a maglock?

No. A door holder is intended to hold a door open; a maglock is an electromagnetic locking device.

Can I assume every LOX device suits a fire door or exit?

No. Confirm the individual product, door assembly, required release behaviour and applicable project requirements.

Can electricians access protected LOX pricing?

Eligible verified licensed electricians can apply for SCHNAP Trade Access; protected prices appear when the approved account is logged in.
