Dynalock 2513 Series Mini-Mag Gate Lock
The 2513 Series is a full size 650 lbs. holding force electromagnet. It is designed for high security on sliding and swinging gates, or any door subjected to the elements. Specify for outdoor commercial, industrial, institutional, or residential openings. The 2513 is fully sealed with a 3/8” threaded conduit nipple for wiring from the side. Optional Dynastat feature signals magnetic bond status. This allows integrated remote monitoring of the lock, reducing additional parts and labor. The coil and housing assembly mounts rigidly to the post or frame while the armature mounts to the gate in a manner that allows it to pivot slightly to compensate for gate misalignment. When the gate is closed and the lock is energized the armature is magnetically bonded to the lock face, thus securing the gate without utilizing any moving parts. Specify the GLBM option for an adjustable “Z” bracket, designed to mate with the armature or lock housing. The 2513 Lock housing mounts with easy to use face-drilled holes.
Standard Features
• Weather Resistant: Designed specifically to be
used outside.
• A totally plated coil and armature provides
protection against corrosion.
• No moving parts means little or no
maintenance from wear and tear.
• Low power consumption conserves energy,
reduces operation cost, and extends battery backup
time.
• 12 or 24VDC: Field Selectable. AC voltage
requires optional rectifier (PN# 7088).
• Long Leads: 6’ Long / 18 gauge flying lead
connections.
• No residual magnetism: The gate releases
without delay when lock is de-energized.
• Includes spike suppression MOV to protect
other solid state components within the system
from damage when the lock is de-energized.
• Lifetime Warranty: Made in the USA by
DynaLock, with over 20 years experience in the
manufacture of electronic security & access
control products.

DynaLock 2513 628 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can a DynaLock 2513 mag lock be mounted outdoors on a gate?
Outdoor use is what the 2513 Mini-Mag is built for. The housing is fully sealed, the coil and armature are fully plated against corrosion, and wiring enters through a 3/8 inch threaded conduit nipple on the side so you can run rigid or flex conduit instead of leaving leads exposed. It is specified for outdoor commercial, industrial, institutional, and residential openings on sliding or swinging gates.
2) Will a 650 lb mag lock hold a gate that does not close perfectly square?
Some misalignment is allowed for. The coil and housing bolt rigidly to the post or frame, while the armature mounts to the gate so it can pivot slightly and still seat flat on the lock face. That bond gives 650 lbs of holding force with no moving parts. If the gap or offset is beyond what the armature pivot handles, order the GLBM option, an adjustable Z bracket that mates to either the armature or the lock housing.
3) How much space do I need on the gate post for the 2513 Mini-Mag?
The lock body measures 1-1/4 inch D x 1-13/16 inch H x 8 inch L, so it fits on a narrow post or frame member where a full-size mag lock housing will not sit. Mounting is through face-drilled holes in the housing, so you work from the front of the lock rather than needing access behind the post.
4) Does the DynaLock 2513 run on 12V or 24V, and can I power it from an AC transformer?
12 or 24 VDC, field selectable, so one part number covers either bus. Current draw is 381 mA at 12VDC and 205 mA at 24VDC, which is what you size the supply and battery backup around. It will not run on AC directly. For an AC source you need a rectifier, DynaLock part 7088, and you can have that rectifier bridge pre-wired to the lock when you order.
5) What options do I have to specify when ordering the 2513 gate lock?
Three choices, in any combination: the Dynastat force sensor, the Mini Gate Lock adjustable Z bracket (GLBM), and a pre-wired rectifier bridge. All eight combinations are orderable, so you can take the lock plain or with all three. Dynastat signals magnetic bond status for remote monitoring at the access control panel, which saves adding a separate door position switch and the labor to wire it.
6) Will the gate release immediately when power drops, or does the magnet stay stuck?
Release is immediate. The 2513 has no residual magnetism, so the armature lets go the moment the lock is de-energized, with no delay and nothing mechanical to retract. A spike suppression MOV is built in to protect the other solid state devices on the circuit at the moment of de-energizing. Note this is a fail-safe device with no battery of its own, so it unlocks on power loss.
7) For a heavy vehicle or industrial gate, should I use the DynaLock 2513 or the Schlage M490G?
The Schlage Electronics M490G is a heavy-duty gate electromagnetic lock rated 1500 lbs, which is the choice when the leaf is large or the gate is a vehicle entrance. The DynaLock 2513 is a 650 lb mini-mag for sliding or swinging gates, fully sealed for outdoor use with a 3/8 inch threaded conduit nipple for side wiring and an armature that pivots slightly to take up gate misalignment. Pedestrian gates and light swing gates are where the 2513 fits; heavier leaves point to the higher-force body.
8) Do I need the Z bracket with a Mini-Mag gate lock?
Only if the geometry needs it. On a gate where the post face and the gate leaf present flat, parallel surfaces at the same plane, the housing and armature mount direct. Where the leaf sits offset from the post, or where you need to shim the bond faces into alignment, specify the GLBM adjustable Z bracket, which mates with either the armature or the lock housing.
9) Is 650 lbs enough holding force for my gate, or should I go heavier?
650 lbs suits pedestrian and light vehicle gates where the lock is one layer of a controlled opening. For a wider or heavier leaf, or an opening you expect to be pushed on, step up: the Securitron M62FG-SASM is a heavy-duty gate Magnalock rated 1200 lbs and listed as Grade 2, and the Schlage Electronics M490G is a heavy-duty gate electromagnetic lock rated 1500 lbs. Both are physically larger than the 8 inch long Mini-Mag housing, so confirm you have post face to mount them.
10) How do I wire the 2513 back to my access control panel?
The lock ships with 6 foot, 18 gauge flying leads, so plan a junction or panel connection within that reach of the conduit nipple or extend in a box. Wiring enters the sealed housing from the side through a 3/8 inch threaded nipple. If you want bond status back at the panel, add the Dynastat option and you get a monitoring signal off the lock itself instead of a separate contact.
11) Which gate maglock carries a stated ANSI grade for a spec that requires one?
If the submittal requires a graded product, the Securitron M62FG-SASM gate Magnalock is a Grade 2 device. The DynaLock 2513 is specified instead by performance and environment: 650 lbs holding force, field-selectable 12/24 VDC, satin aluminum 628 finish, and a sealed weather-resistant housing with plated coil and armature for outdoor commercial, industrial, institutional and residential gate openings.
12) What finish does the DynaLock Mini-Mag gate lock come in?
628 satin aluminum (US28) is the finish, on both the housing and the plated armature. That is the standard clear-anodized look that blends with aluminum gate frames and storefront posts, and the plating is the corrosion protection for outdoor service.
13) Is the DynaLock 2513 meant for commercial gates or will it work at a residence?
Both. It is classed as commercial-duty hardware and specified for outdoor commercial, industrial, institutional, and residential openings. The draw for a property manager is maintenance: no moving parts means nothing wears out on an exterior gate, and a plated coil and armature resist the corrosion that kills mechanical gate latches.
14) What is the simplest way to order a DynaLock 2513 without add-ons, and when do the options matter?
The DynaLock 2513 can be ordered plain, with no Dynastat force sensor, no mini gate lock bracket and no pre-wired rectifier bridge, which suits a 12 or 24 VDC access system where the gate post and leaf already align. Add Dynastat when the head end needs magnetic bond status for remote monitoring, the adjustable Z bracket when the armature or housing needs to be stood off the gate, and the rectifier bridge when the supply is AC. By comparison, the Securitron M62FG-SASM is configured as a heavy-duty 1200 lb gate Magnalock and the Schlage M490G as a 1500 lb gate lock.
