Fail-safe 280 kg (600 lb) single-door maglock with a 250 × 47 × 26 mm aluminum-alloy body, 12 or 24 V DC coil (480/240 mA) and hex-socket screws.
EL-200 is the base 280 kg (600 lb) magnetic lock in our range: a single-door, surface-mount electromagnetic lock for doors that need to be held and released without status feedback. It pairs with any access controller, standalone keypad or exit button that can switch a 12 V or 24 V DC lock supply.
The 250 × 47 × 26 mm body is high-strength aluminum alloy, assembled with hex-socket (Allen) screws that are harder to remove with everyday tools, and it weighs 2 kg. A 180 × 38 × 11 mm armature plate mounts on the door leaf. Current draw is 480 mA at 12 V DC or 240 mA at 24 V DC.
Like all maglocks it is fail-safe: the door releases the moment the supply is interrupted, which suits escape routes and fire-alarm release. There is no built-in delay, so door-open time comes from the controller, keypad or a timed exit button. Where the controller needs to know whether the door is secured, EL-190 is the same lock with an NO/NC status output.
Mount the body on the header on the side the door closes toward, with the armature meeting the lock face squarely. For doors that open toward the lock side use the EL-140 ZL bracket; for narrow headers the EL-160 L bracket; for frameless glass leaves the EL-150 U bracket. It is listed for wooden, glass, metal and fire doors.

Apartment building access control hardware: anti-clone readers with matched fob sets, QR visitor codes, 4G controllers for rentals and UHF tags for gates.
Gym access control system hardware for 24/7 clubs: fob and wristband readers, face and QR terminals, anti-passback controllers and no-touch exit buttons.
No, it has no signal output. For status feedback choose EL-190, which is the same lock with NO/NC status contacts.
Yes, if the keypad relay can switch a 12 V DC load of at least 480 mA. Check the keypad relay rating against the lock current before wiring.
480 mA at 12 V DC or 240 mA at 24 V DC for the lock. Add the other devices plus 25–50% headroom; a 12 V 3 A supply such as PW-120 covers a typical single door.
Use the EL-140 ZL bracket when the door opens toward the lock side. Its plates follow this lock’s 250 mm body and 180 × 38 mm armature.
Maglock wiring with dry-relay COM/NC: keypad and reader diagrams, REX signals, approved egress release paths and manufacturer-specific suppression.
A fail-safe lock releases when power is cut; a fail-secure lock stays locked. Learn which to use per door, how to wire NO/NC, and what egress codes expect.
Program a standalone access control keypad: enter programming mode, change the master code, add card and PIN users, set relay time, reset and wire it.
