Locknetics WMG600-630 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Locknetics WMG maglock unlock when the power goes out?
Yes, it releases. The WMG is a fail-safe lock: the magnet only holds while it is energized, so a power loss, a fire alarm relay drop, or a pulled fuse frees the door. That is the code-required behavior on an egress door, but it also means the opening is unsecured during an outage, so if the door has to stay locked without power you need a mechanical lock or a fail-secure electric strike behind it, not a maglock. Every magnetic lock works this way, including comparable units like the Dorma EML310 and EML320.
2) What power supply do I need for a Locknetics WMG Series electromagnetic lock?
The WMG runs on dual voltage, 12 VDC at 0.5A or 24 VDC at 0.25A, so a standard access control power supply on either rail will drive it. Size the supply for 500mA per lock at 12V, half that at 24V, and add battery backup only if you want the door to stay locked through a brief outage. There is no battery in the lock itself, it is a hardwired device.
3) Can I get door position monitoring and a relock delay on the WMG maglock?
Both come with the DT model option. That adds an SPDT door status sensor so your access control panel or alarm knows whether the door is open or closed, plus a timer giving a 0 to 90 second relock delay. Specify DT at the time of order, since it is an internal option and not something added in the field. If you need the same monitoring on a different platform, the Dortronics 1000 Series carries an SPDT door position switch and the Dorma EML310 DP is supplied with a door position sensor.
4) Is the Locknetics WMG maglock approved for use on a fire rated door?
The WMG Series is UL10C listed for a single door and UL294 listed as an access control device. UL10C is the positive pressure fire door test, so it is the listing your AHJ looks for on a labeled opening. Note the listing covers single door use, so a pair of doors is a different conversation, and the fire alarm must drop power to the lock since it is fail-safe.
5) What is the closest weather-rated magnetic lock to the Locknetics WMG Series for an exterior gate or perimeter door?
The Alarm Controls 1200WP is the direct weather-resistant peer. Both are surface-mounted mag locks built for openings exposed to the elements: the WMG Series uses a stainless steel housing with a fire-rated epoxy seal and carries a UL1034 outdoor rating along with UL294 and UL10C single door listings, and the 1200WP is a weather resistant magnetic lock series. The Dortronics 1000 Series is a third option in that group - an industrial mag lock with sealed electronics, weather resistant construction, an SPDT door position switch, and field-selectable 12/24VDC, which matches the WMG dual voltage of 12 VDC at 0.5A or 24 VDC at 0.25A. All three are fail-safe by design; the WMG is listed fail-safe, so the door unlocks on power loss.
6) The WMG Series is a single door lock - what covers a pair of doors instead?
For a double opening, use a double magnet unit. The Alarm Controls 1200D is a double magnetic lock series, the Dorma EML320 is a double door electromagnetic lock rated 1500 lb, and the DynaLock 2250 Series is a double electromagnetic lock at 1200 lb, surface mounted for outswing or inswing single or double doors. The WMG Series is UL10C listed for a single door and comes in 600 lb and 1200 lb holding force, so a pair of doors needs either two WMG units or one of the double-magnet models above.
7) I am replacing a Locknetics 390+ magnetic lock - is the WMG Series the retrofit?
No. The direct retrofit for a Locknetics 390+ is the Schlage Electronics M390RFK, which is built as a direct retrofit for that model at 1500 lbs holding force with door status monitor, magnetic bond sensor and relock time delay. The WMG Series is a separate weatherproof line in 600 lb and 1200 lb holding force with its own bracket set, so it would be a new layout rather than a drop-in on existing 390+ mounting.
8) Will the WMG Series work as a delayed egress lock, or do I need a different model?
The WMG Series DT model options add a door status sensor SPDT switch and a relock timer with a 0-90 second delay, which reports door position and holds the relock - that is not delayed egress. If the code requirement on the opening is a 15 or 30 second delayed egress, use a purpose-built unit: the Alarm Controls 1200DE is a delayed egress magnetic lock for a single door, and the DynaLock 2101 Series is a 1200 lb early warning lock. Ordering the WMG DT expecting delayed egress is the most common mix-up on this type.
9) Which magnetic locks in this class are fire rated for a fire door opening?
The Locknetics WMG Series is UL10C listed for a single door, along with UL294 and the UL1034 outdoor rating. Among the peers, the Dorma EML310 in both the door position sensor and the Bond Alert plus door position sensor builds carries a fire rating, as does the double door EML320 at 1500 lb. All of those, like the WMG, are fail safe - electrically locked, releasing on loss of power, which is what a fire door opening requires of the lock itself.
10) Does a magnetic lock like the WMG satisfy ADA requirements on an accessible entrance?
The WMG is not an ADA compliant device on its own. A maglock has no operable hardware, it holds the door shut until something releases it, so the accessible egress comes from what you put with it: a request to exit device, a touch sense bar, or a push button, plus the fail-safe drop on alarm. Plan those release devices into the opening rather than expecting the lock to carry the requirement.
11) Do I need a mounting bracket to install a WMG surface maglock, and is it included?
Mounting depends on the door. The WMG is a surface mount lock and Locknetics offers an optional mounting bracket plus an assortment of brackets for the series, which is how it adapts to inswing, outswing, glass, and frameless openings. Specify the bracket for your door swing along with the lock, since the bracket is an option rather than part of the base unit.
12) Is a surface magnetic lock the right choice, or should I use a shear lock or a concealed unit?
A surface maglock like the WMG mounts on the frame header with the armature on the door, which makes it the fastest retrofit and the easiest to service, at the cost of being visible on the opening. Where appearance rules and you can machine the door and frame, a shear lock hides in the header, and the ROFU 8031-002 is a monitored shear lock at 2200 lb on 12/24VDC. For a sliding door, the Schlage Electronics 320M is a compact mortise unit at 1500 lb. On narrow aluminum stile doors where a full size housing will not sit, the Dortronics 1107 is a 2 inch slim line 600 lb single door maglock.
13) Is there a simpler magnetic lock than the WMG Series for an interior door that does not need a weather rating?
Yes. For a dry interior opening the Alarm Controls 1200 Series is a single magnetic lock without the weather-resistant construction, and the Dortronics 1107 is a narrow 2 inch slim line 600 lb single door mag lock for openings with a tight header. The DynaLock 2050 Series is a 1200 lb single magnet surface mounted for outswing or inswing single or double doors. The WMG Series brings the stainless steel housing, fire-rated epoxy seal and UL1034 outdoor rating that those interior units do not advertise, which is what earns it exterior and high profile openings.
14) What do I use on a sliding door or a frameless glass opening where a surface mag lock will not mount?
The WMG Series is a surface-mounted magnet that needs a header and an armature face on the door, so it does not suit a sliding leaf. The Schlage Electronics 320M is a compact mortise sliding door electromagnetic lock at 1500 lbs holding force, heavy duty, built into the opening rather than sitting on the header. The ROFU 8512 is a standard single magnet with selectable keyhole mounting at 1200 LB holding force on 12/24VDC, which gives a different mounting pattern while matching the WMG dual 12/24VDC supply.
15) What finish does the Locknetics WMG weatherproof maglock come in?
One finish only: 630, satin stainless steel, also called US32D. On the WMG that is not a cosmetic choice, the stainless housing is part of how the lock survives outdoors, so there is no painted or anodized alternative in the series. If you are matching a building standard in 628 aluminum, the Dormakaba EML310 and EML320 are offered in 628.
16) Is the Locknetics WMG maglock suitable for a residential gate or a house door?
It is a commercial device. The WMG is specified for commercial openings, hardwired on 12 or 24 VDC, with no battery and no keypad or credential reader on board, so it only works as part of an access control system with a power supply and a release device. For a single residential door, the labor and the panel behind it usually cost more than the lock.
17) What are the lighter duty alternatives if 600 lb is more holding force than my door needs?
The Schlage M420 is a 500 lb single door electromagnetic lock, which is the step below the 600 lb WMG600 for an interior office or storeroom door that just needs to stay shut. Keep the 600 lb or 1200 lb WMG for exterior and public entrances, where the weather resistant stainless housing and the UL1034 outdoor rating are doing real work.
18) Does the WMG Series come in finishes other than satin stainless if I am matching other hardware?
The WMG Series magnet is finished 630, satin stainless steel, matching its stainless steel housing. Peers in the same class arrive in 628 clear anodized aluminum - the Dorma EML310 single door 1500 lb units and the EML320 double door 1500 lb are 628. On a run of exterior openings where the mag locks are visible, that is the practical decision: 630 satin stainless on the WMG, 628 on the Dorma EML line.
