A10004DS Double Mini Magnetic Lock (Maglock) with Door Status Monitoring

The A10004DS Double Mini Magnetic Lock or Maglock is an unmonitored electromagnetic locking solution with a separate door status monitoring output, designed for securing double doors in access control systems, door entry systems, intercoms, and electronic door security applications. Suitable for commercial, industrial, educational, healthcare, residential, and public sector environments, it provides secure and reliable locking for paired access-controlled doors.

Operating from selectable 12VDC or 24VDC, the A10004DS delivers up to 600lbs (272kg) of holding force per door leaf, providing 2 × 600lbs across the double-door installation. Manufactured with a durable aluminium housing and electroless nickel plated steel armature plates, this double magnetic lock is designed to provide long-term reliability and consistent locking performance.

The door status output allows compatible systems to monitor whether the doors are physically open or closed. This is separate from lock status monitoring: the A10004DS does not provide an output confirming whether the magnets and armature plates are engaged.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a double mini magnetic lock?

A double mini magnetic lock is a compact electromagnetic locking device designed to secure double doors. It provides electromagnetic locking on both door leaves whilst maintaining a smaller overall size than a standard double magnetic lock.

What is the holding force of the A10004DS?

The A10004DS provides up to 600lbs (272kg) of holding force per door leaf, giving 2 × 600lbs across the double-door installation.

What does DS mean?

DS means door status monitoring. The A10004DS includes a door status output that allows compatible equipment to monitor whether the doors are physically open or closed.

Does the A10004DS provide lock status monitoring?

No. The A10004DS is an unmonitored magnetic lock. Its door status output indicates whether the doors are open or closed, rather than confirming engagement between the magnets and armature plates.

Can the A10004DS be used on double doors?

Yes. The A10004DS is specifically designed for double-door installations, providing electromagnetic locking for paired door leaves alongside door status monitoring.

What does fail-safe operation mean?

Fail-safe operation means the magnetic lock requires power to remain locked. When power to the lock is interrupted, it releases. Emergency release equipment and access controls must be correctly connected to interrupt the lock supply when required.

What is the difference between the A10004 and A10004DS?

The A10004DS includes a door status output, allowing compatible systems to monitor whether the doors are open or closed. The A10004 provides the same locking performance without this output. Neither model provides lock status monitoring.

Can the A10004DS be used with access control systems?

Yes. The A10004DS can be used with compatible access control systems, intercoms, door entry systems, card readers, keypads, press to exit buttons and emergency door release units. Compatible door status inputs are required to receive door open or closed feedback.

Can I use the lock without connecting the door status output?

Yes. The lock can operate without the door status output connected, but the connected system will not receive door open or closed feedback from it.

Why choose a double mini magnetic lock with door status monitoring?

It provides a compact solution for securing paired doors whilst allowing compatible systems to monitor door position. This is useful where door open or closed feedback is required alongside electromagnetic locking.
