  3. Mount hardware using appropriate fasteners for the gate material (wood, metal, or composite). Use provided machine screws and mounting accessories where applicable.
  4. Route wiring through the built-in conduit fitting using weatherproof conduit and appropriate outdoor-rated connections. Utilize the extra-long wire cable for flexible routing to electrical boxes.
  5. Connect to 12/24 VDC power supply and configure Remote Lock Status monitoring connections per manufacturer wiring diagrams.
  6. Test operation under various conditions including fail-safe unlock during power loss and verify weatherproof integrity. Refer to manufacturer documentation for complete installation specifications and maintenance requirements for outdoor applications.

RCI RCI-8380 32D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the RCI 8380 GateMag stay locked if the power goes out?
No. The 8380 GateMag is a fail-safe electromagnetic gate lock, so it releases the moment power drops and the gate can be pushed open. That is the right behavior on an egress gate and the wrong behavior if the gate is your perimeter barrier and you need it to hold during an outage. If a power failure has to leave the gate secured, an electromagnetic lock is not the device for it, since every mag lock releases without current. Plan for a backup power supply or battery standby on the access control side if you need the gate held through an outage.
2) Is the RCI 8380 GateMag rated for an outdoor gate, or is it interior only?
Both. The 8380 is built for interior or exterior perimeter gates, with a stainless steel housing for outdoor exposure and an integrated conduit fitting plus an extra-long wire cable so the run to an outdoor electrical box can be made in weatherproof conduit. Use outdoor-rated conduit and connections for that run, and pick a mounting position that drains rather than one that pools water against the housing.
3) Can I use the RCI 8380 on a fire rated door opening?
No. The 8380 GateMag is not fire rated, so keep it on perimeter and yard gates and off any labeled fire door assembly. A fire rated opening needs hardware carrying its own listing for that use, and substituting an unrated gate lock voids the assembly label.
4) Does the RCI 8380 gate lock have to be ordered for a left or right hand gate?
Handing is not a factor. The 8380 GateMag is non-handed, so the same unit works on a left or right swinging gate. What you do have to sort out on site is which leaf takes the magnet body and which takes the armature, and whether the gate frame gives you flat, square bearing surfaces for both halves at the closed position.
5) Can I tell from the guard station whether the gate is actually locked?
Yes. The 8380 GateMag carries a built-in Remote Lock Status output that reports lock and unlock state back to your system, so a monitored gate reads as secure or open at the panel instead of someone walking out to check. That is the difference between this and a plain mag lock: you get the status contact without adding a separate sensor to the gate.
6) What hardware comes with the RCI GateMag 8380 for mounting it to a gate?
Mounting is by machine screws. On a steel or aluminum gate frame that means drilling and tapping the frame, or through-bolting where you can reach the back side. Wood and composite gates need fasteners suited to that material and usually a backing plate, since the frame itself has to carry the pull of the magnet, not just the screws.
