Hager 2965 Single Magnetic Shear Lock with 2700 Lbs Holding Force

High-Security Electromagnetic Locking Solution

The Hager 2965 Single Magnetic Shear Lock delivers professional-grade security with 2700 lbs (1225 kg) holding force for commercial applications. This fail-safe electromagnetic lock operates on 800mA/400mA @ 12/24VDC with auto-sensing power input and features integrated electronics in a compact 1-5/8" (41 mm) depth design. Engineered for 1-3/4" - 2" (44 mm - 51 mm) frames, the lock accommodates hollow metal, wood, and Herculite doors with top rails.

Professional Features & Benefits

  • Exceptional Holding Force: 2700 lbs (1225 kg) holding capacity without current inrush or high operating temperature for maximum security performance.
  • Compact Installation Profile: 1-5/8" (41 mm) depth fits 1-3/4" - 2" (44 mm - 51 mm) frames with integrated electronics for streamlined installation.
  • Flexible Power Options: Auto-sensing 800mA/400mA @ 12/24VDC operation adapts to various system requirements with fail-safe locking mechanism.
  • Advanced Door Alignment Technology: Door static sensor ensures door is at rest and aligned before magnet energizes, eliminating potential for lock misalignment.
  • Adjustable Configuration: Lateral adjustment of shear tabs compensates for warped or misaligned doors, with vertical adjustment of armature and delay relock sensor for wide door gaps.
  • Durable Construction: Alloy shear tabs maintain continued high holding force without profiling of soft armature steel that may wear and reduce holding capacity.
  • Optional Monitoring Systems: Available Door Position Sensor (DPS), Magnetic Bond Sensor (MBS), and Anti-Tamper Switch (ATS) options provide comprehensive status monitoring.
  • Noise Reduction Design: Built-in noise dampeners reduce sound associated with locking and unlocking operations for quieter performance.

Installation & Operation

  1. Verify electrical requirements match available power supply. Confirm 12/24VDC auto-sensing capability and 800mA/400mA current capacity before proceeding.
  2. Disconnect power supply before beginning installation. Follow all applicable electrical codes and safety procedures.
  3. Mount the unit in the specified location ensuring adequate clearance for wiring access, ventilation, and future service requirements.
  4. Route and connect wiring according to manufacturer wiring diagrams. Use appropriate wire gauge and connectors for the application.
  5. Configure operational settings including fail-safe operation and any optional sensor functions per application requirements.
  6. Restore power and test all functions including normal operation, door position sensing, magnetic bond monitoring, and integration with connected systems.
  7. Complete final inspection and document settings. Refer to manufacturer documentation for complete wiring diagrams, programming instructions, and troubleshooting.

Hager 2965 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What door types can the Hager 2965 magnetic shear lock be used on?
Commercial hollow metal and wood doors and frames, plus Herculite glass doors that have a top rail. The armature kit you order decides it: ITC covers aluminum and hollow metal doors with 7/8 inch to 1-1/8 inch deep top channels, wood doors, and factory prepped hollow metal flush edge doors; HTC is for 1-15/16 inch deep Herculite channels; HTR is the Herculite top rail bracket for leading edge adjustment; FTC is for field prepped horizontal mounting in flush edge hollow metal doors.
2) Does the Hager 2965 shear lock unlock in a power failure?
Yes. It is a fail safe device, so cutting power releases the magnet and the door opens. That is what makes it usable on egress doors tied to fire alarm and access control release, but it also means an unmonitored power loss leaves the opening unsecured, so plan the power supply and any battery backup accordingly.
3) My doors are slightly warped and the gaps are inconsistent. Will the Hager 2965 still lock reliably?
That is what the adjustments are for. The shear tabs adjust laterally to compensate for warped or misaligned doors, and both the armature and the adjustable delay relock sensor adjust vertically to handle wide door gaps. The floating action lets the armature lift easily once the magnet is energized, which also helps across wide gaps.
4) Why does a shear lock work on a door that a surface mag lock struggles with?
A shear lock like the Hager 2965 mounts concealed in the header and holds by shear tabs engaging the armature, so nothing hangs below the frame and the aesthetics of the opening are preserved. It also holds 2700 lbs (1225 kg). The tradeoff is alignment: a shear lock depends on the door coming to rest in the right position, which is why the 2965 carries a door static sensor that blocks the magnet from energizing until the door is at rest and aligned. If your door is badly out of true or you cannot mortise the header, a surface mounted mag lock is the easier install.
5) Can I get door status monitoring with the Hager 2965?
Yes, as ordered options. Door Position Switch (DPS) reports door open and door closed. Magnetic Bond Sensor (MBS) reports locked and unlocked, low holding power, tampering, and any obstruction between the armature and the magnetic core. An Anti-Tamper Switch (ATS) is also offered. These are specified with the lock, so decide before you order if your access control head end needs the contacts.
6) Does the Hager 2965 meet an ANSI standard for electromagnetic locks?
It meets ANSI 156.15 for C00011, the standard covering release devices and electromagnetic locking hardware. That is the citation to put on a submittal for a commercial spec, and the 2965 is a commercial rated device, not a residential one.
7) Can I swap an SDC 1561TJ for the Hager 2965 on the same opening without changing the prep?
No, they are not interchangeable in the same prep. The SDC HiShear 1561TJ Series mounts to the surface at the top jamb, while the Hager 2965 is a concealed shear lock whose 1-5/8 inch (41 mm) deep body seats inside 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch frames with an 11 inch armature mounted to the door. The armature kits also differ by door type on the 2965 side, with ITC for aluminum and hollow metal doors with 7/8 inch to 1-1/8 inch deep top channels and wood doors, HTC for 1-15/16 inch deep Herculite channels, HTR for Herculite top rail, and FTC for field prepared flush edge hollow metal. Treat a change between the two as a new prep, not a drop-in.
8) What finish and material is the Hager 2965 shear lock?
US32D satin stainless steel, over a zinc alloy body. The shear tabs themselves are alloy rather than profiled soft armature steel, which is the reason Hager cites for holding force staying consistent instead of dropping off as the contact surface wears.
9) Is the Hager 2965 quiet enough for a hospital corridor or a hotel entry?
It has built in noise dampeners that cut the sound of locking and unlocking, and it runs without the high operating temperature or inrush that noisier mags produce. Hager lists healthcare access control and commercial building security among its applications.
