HES Magnalock 32 Face-Drilled 12/24 VDC Magnetic Lock

Provide electromagnetic holding for controlled doors with the HES Magnalock 32, a 600 lb magnetic lock platform for access-control openings. It operates from either 12 or 24 VDC, allowing the lock to align with common low-voltage door-control power architectures. Magnetic locking is suited to openings that need electrically controlled release through the connected access-control, request-to-exit, or life-safety system. The face-drilled configuration uses mounting holes through the lock face, making mounting style a primary selection point for installers replacing or standardizing a lock assembly. Select this configuration where the door frame, bracket arrangement, and mounting method call for face fastening. The lock must be matched to the opening's armature arrangement, frame material, door construction, and release-control design. M32FB identifies the 12/24 VDC, face-drilled Magnalock 32 configuration. Its 600 lb holding-force rating places it in a controlled-door security application rather than a light-duty cabinet or enclosure application. Verify the physical mounting geometry and electrical design of the door assembly before installation, particularly when integrating the lock with door-position monitoring, access credentials, exit controls, or fire-alarm release circuits.
