The armature housing is manufactured from lightweight yet durable aluminium, providing high strength and corrosion resistance that it suitable for use in a wide range of environments. RS PRO surface armature plate housings are the perfect solution for installing magnetic locks for a door, whilst providing an aesthetically pleasing and professional look.

Armature plate housings are designed to be used with electro-magnetic locks (also referred to as maglocks), a type of access control solution used to provide a secure lock for a door via electrically powered magnets. When energised, magnetic door locks create a strong bond to metal plates installed via housings or brackets and can offer varying holding force ratings depending on the level of security required. Magnetic locks are available as monitored and unmonitored depending on whether an alarm or signal is required to notify occupants of an emergency, or when the door is locked or unlocked. Magnetic locks are used in a wide range of commercial and public buildings including:

• Residential


• Shops


• Offices


• Warehouses


• Storage units
