About this electromagnetic lock
An electromagnetic lock (maglock) holds the door shut with an electromagnet on the frame and a steel armature plate on the door. It has no moving parts and is fail safe by design: the door releases when power is cut. Building codes require a code-compliant way to release it for egress, such as a request-to-exit sensor and push button, and a fire alarm release.
