Yale MGL 6000 Electromagnetic Lock 12-24V Surface Mount 544kg Holding Force

Product Overview

The Yale MGL 6000 electromagnetic lock is designed for surface installation on access-controlled doors in commercial and institutional buildings. Operating at either 12 V or 24 V DC, it integrates seamlessly with most access control systems and provides a secure locking solution for environments such as offices, schools, and hotels. The robust construction features a brushed finish aluminium housing, and the unit is supplied with a pressure and mounting plate, plus all necessary fixings.

A defining feature of the MGL 6000 is its substantial holding force of 544 kg (6000 N), which sets it apart from standard magnetic locks in its class.
