SCHLAGE GF3000 SERIES OVERVIEW

The GF3000 Series electromagnetic shear locks are available in mortise mount or low profile surface mount options. Both feature superior hold force with advanced microprocessor controlled electronic features including auto sensed voltage, auto relocking, adjustable relock time delay and options for integrating into an access control system.

The mortise shear lock offers the advantage of a totally concealed locking mechanism, providing superior security and appearance while allowing for normal door movement. The patented design incorporates locking tabs on the magnet assembly with mating grooves in the armature plate. The surface mounted model provides powerful hold force in a low profile design.

All Schlage electromagnetic locks come with a limited lifetime warranty on the magnetic coil assembly for added confidence in the longevity of these robust products.

Schlage Electronics GF3000BRD – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the difference between the Schlage GF3000BRD, GF3000 and GF3000TRD shear locks?
All three are concealed mortise mount shear locks rated at 3000 lb hold force. The GF3000BRD mortises into the bottom of the door or the bottom rail. The GF3000 goes at the top of the door or top rail, and the GF3000TRD is the top of door/top rail version for when the air gap adjustment is not accessible after the door is hung. Pick the BRD only if you are prepping the bottom rail.
2) Is the Schlage GF3000BRD fail-safe or fail-secure?
Fail-safe. The GF3000BRD shear lock releases when power is removed, which is what lets it be used on egress doors tied into an access control or fire alarm system. If your opening requires the lock to stay secure during a power loss, this is not the device for it.
3) Can the GF3000BRD shear lock be used on a fire rated door?
It is UL 10C listed for positive pressure fire tests of door assemblies at 3 hours, plus cUL and CSFM listed, and it carries ANSI/BHMA A156.23 Grade 1. That combination is what a facility or institutional spec usually calls for on a rated opening.
4) What power supply do I need for a Schlage GF3000BRD mortise shear lock?
It takes filtered 12 or 24 VDC and selects the voltage automatically, so one part number works on either bus. Size the supply for 900 mA at 12 VDC or 450 mA at 24 VDC. There is no in-rush current to account for. It is not battery powered.
5) What is the difference between the two GF3000BRD versions I have to choose from?
Two build options: one without monitoring, and the DSM/MBS version with a Door Status Monitor and Magnetic Bond Sensor. The MBS reports whether the lock is actually secure (bonded) and the DSM reports whether the door is open or closed. If your access control head end or guard station needs door position and lock status back, order the DSM/MBS version, because it is not field-addable after the fact.
6) Will a concealed shear lock still let the door swing normally, unlike a surface magnet?
Yes. The GF3000BRD mortises fully into the door or rail, so nothing shows and the door moves normally. Locking tabs on the magnet assembly mate with grooves in the armature plate to produce the shear hold, and it will jump up to a 1/4 inch gap. If you cannot mortise the door or rail, look at the surface mount GF3000SM for outswinging doors or the GF3000TJ for inswinging.
7) What is the closest concealed shear lock alternative to the Schlage GF3000BRD?
The SDC HiShear 1560 Series is the nearest concealed electromagnetic shear lock, rated at 2000 to 2700 lbs holding force. The Schlage GF3000BRD is a mortise-mounted shear lock rated at 3000 lbs holding force, mounted on the bottom of the door or bottom rail. Both are heavy duty. If the opening was specified at 3000 lbs, the GF3000BRD is the one that meets it; if the spec allows 2000 to 2700 lbs, the SDC 1560 is a concealed option.
8) Can this shear lock be mortised into a wood frame or used in an unheated space?
Yes on both counts. The GF3000BRD is rated for 0 to 49 C (0 to 120 F), and that low temperature operation is specifically what allows mortise mounting in wood frames. It is a commercial, heavy duty device with an aluminum body.
9) Does the GF3000BRD relock automatically after someone passes through?
It has a built-in automatic relock switch and is microprocessor controlled, with a relock time delay you set in the field from 2 to 30 seconds. That delay is what keeps the magnet from grabbing before the door has fully closed and settled.
10) Will the GF3000BRD tie into my existing card access system?
It connects to most access control systems, running off the same 12 or 24 VDC filtered power those panels typically supply, with automatic voltage selection so you do not have to set a jumper. Ordered with the DSM/MBS option, it also returns door position and bond status to the panel.
11) Is the SDC 1562SC a substitute for the Schlage GF3000BRD?
Not directly. The SDC HiShear 1562SC Series is a semi-concealed electromagnetic shear lock with 2000 lb holding force, so part of the lock body remains exposed. The Schlage GF3000BRD is a fully mortise-mounted unit at 3000 lbs holding force installed at the bottom of the door or bottom rail, with the locking mechanism concealed. The two differ in both mounting exposure and hold rating, so confirm which the drawing calls for before ordering.
12) Which shear lock should I use for an inswinging door instead of the GF3000BRD?
For a top jamb application on an inswinging door, the SDC HiShear 1561TJ Series is a 2000 lb surface top jamb mount shear lock. The Schlage GF3000BRD is configured for the bottom of the door or bottom rail and mortise mounting, so a top jamb model is the different animal for that opening.
