DynaLock TJ27 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the DynaLock TJ27 conversion kit actually do?
The TJ27 is a top jamb conversion kit that converts a DynaLock 2522 magnetic lock into a 2522-TJ2 configuration, so the mag lock can be mounted on the top jamb of an inswing door instead of the standard header-face mounting.
2) Do I need a top jamb kit for an inswing door with a DynaLock mag lock?
Yes. DynaLock top jamb kits exist because a mag lock on an inswing opening has to mount to the top jamb rather than the underside of the header. The TJ27 handles that conversion for the 2522.
3) What comes in the TJ27 kit, or do I have to buy brackets separately?
All DynaLock top jamb kits include the "Z" armature bracket(s) and mounting hardware. The 2000 and 2280 Series kits also include an "L" lock conversion bracket. You supply the mag lock itself.
4) Will the TJ27 work on a DynaLock 3000 Series mag lock?
Not this kit. The TJ27 is the part number specific to converting a 2522. DynaLock's top jamb kit range covers 2000, 3000 and 2280 Series locks, but each lock model has its own kit number, so order the kit that names your lock.
5) Is the DynaLock TJ27 the same kind of part as the Securitron SAM Surface Mount Kit Accessories?
Both are mounting accessory sets for electromagnetic locking hardware, but they are not interchangeable. The DynaLock TJ27 is a top jamb conversion kit that converts a 2522 magnetic lock to the 2522-TJ2 top jamb configuration for inswing doors, and it ships with the Z armature bracket and mounting hardware. The Securitron SAM Surface Mount Kit Accessories are mounting parts for Securitron SAM hardware, so they are matched to Securitron locks rather than to the DynaLock 2000, 3000 and 2280 Series. Choose the kit that matches the brand and model of the magnet already on the door.
6) Does the TJ27 kit include any wiring or electrical parts?
No. It is a mechanical mounting kit: armature bracket and hardware only. If you also need power or control parts for the opening, those are separate items, for example an Adams Rite 4605 transformer that takes 115 VAC down to 12/24 VAC with 40 volt-amp output.
7) I have an aluminum glass door with a mag lock, is a top jamb kit what I need?
Only if the door swings in and the lock body has to move to the top jamb. For glass door mounting brackets specifically, that is a different accessory family, such as Securitron's Glass Door Accessories. The TJ27 addresses inswing top jamb mounting of a DynaLock 2522.
8) I need to mount a maglock to a wood frame instead of converting it to top jamb. What should I look at?
The DynaLock TJ27 is specifically a top jamb conversion kit for inswing door applications on 2000, 3000 and 2280 Series locks, so it addresses where the lock sits on the frame, not the frame material. If your issue is fastening to a wood header, the Securitron SWB SAM Wood Bracket is a wood bracket accessory intended for that mounting condition. For an all glass door leaf, Securitron Glass Door Accessories cover that mounting case instead.
9) Is the LCN 8310-3803 conversion kit an alternative to the DynaLock TJ27?
No. The LCN 8310-3803 is a 3V wireless conversion kit for jamb mount touchless actuators, so it changes how an automatic operator is triggered. The DynaLock TJ27 is a mechanical mounting conversion, taking a 2522 magnetic lock to the 2522-TJ2 top jamb arrangement with a Z armature bracket and mounting hardware. The two solve different problems and can appear on the same opening without overlapping.
10) Is this a commercial-duty access control accessory?
Yes. The TJ27 is classed as commercial door hardware and sits in the electronic access control line as an installation accessory for magnetic locking.
11) My magnetic lock opening needs an alarm or egress monitoring added, not a mounting change. What parts cover that?
The DynaLock TJ27 only addresses mounting geometry, converting a 2522 to the 2522-TJ2 top jamb version. For audible egress signaling, the RCI 914 Series delayed egress sounder offers field selectable volume output up to 102dB, and the Adams Rite 29-0218 is a piezo electric horn with multi-voltage compatibility. For power at the opening, the Adams Rite 4605 is a 115 VAC to 12/24 VAC transformer with 40 volt-amp output. These are add-on devices rather than substitutes for the TJ27.
