Product Features
Technical Overview
The 1200D delivers a substantial holding force of 544.31 kg, ensuring doors remain securely closed until electrically released. It supports double doors, with detailed magnet and armature plate dimensions that optimize magnetic engagement. The magnet measures 2.88" (73.03 mm) in height, 1.50" (38.10 mm) in width, and 21" (533.40 mm) in depth, while the armature plate is 2.38" (60.33 mm) high, 0.63" (15.88 mm) wide, and 7.50" (190.50 mm) deep.
Power consumption varies by voltage: at 12 V DC, the input current is 505 mA, and at 24 V DC, it drops to 260 mA. This efficiency supports stable operation in continuous-use environments. The instant release feature allows for immediate door opening when power is cut, critical for safety and emergency egress.

FAQ
What type of doors is the Alarm Controls 1200D compatible with?
The Alarm Controls 1200D is specifically designed for double-door applications. It provides secure magnetic locking for pairs of doors commonly found in commercial entrances, ensuring both doors remain closed until the lock is electrically released. This compatibility makes it ideal for main entryways, internal partitions, or any setup where two doors need synchronized access control.
What is the holding force of this magnetic lock?
This magnetic lock delivers a holding force of 544.31 kg (approximately 1,200 pounds), which is a high-capacity rating suitable for securing doors against forced entry in busy or high-security environments. This force ensures the doors stay firmly closed during normal operation, providing reliable performance in commercial, industrial, or institutional settings.
What power supply does the 1200D require?
The 1200D operates on dual voltage inputs: 12 V DC and 24 V DC. This flexibility allows it to integrate with a variety of power systems, whether you have existing 12 V DC setups or prefer the efficiency of 24 V DC. The input current is 505 mA at 12 V DC and 260 mA at 24 V DC, supporting stable operation without excessive power draw.
Does this lock support instant release?
Yes, the Alarm Controls 1200D features instant release functionality. When power is cut—whether intentionally via an access control system or during a power failure—the lock disengages immediately, allowing doors to open freely. This is critical for safety, ensuring quick egress in emergencies and compliance with building codes that require fail-safe operation.
What is the construction material and color of the lock?
The lock is constructed from plastic with a clear color and clear anodized finishing. This material choice offers durability and resistance to corrosion, while the clear appearance provides a discreet look that blends with modern door designs. The anodized finish adds a protective layer, enhancing longevity in indoor environments.
How is the 1200D installed?
The 1200D uses a bracket mount form factor, which simplifies installation on door frames. It comes with mounting hardware to attach securely to metal or wooden frames, and the design aligns the magnet and armature plate for optimal magnetic engagement. Installation typically involves wiring to a power supply and integrating with an access control system, making it straightforward for professional security installers.
