HEADER

In concrete filled headers, the blind nuts function normally but a problem can occur in pulling the hook up wires as it is difficult to run a wireway in concrete. The center of the bracket for the model 62 and model 82 versions forms a splice chamber if it's difficult to pull the wires back into the header. The model 32 version has a slot to bring the wire into the header because of the narrowness of the lock. Alternately the wires may be pulled through the edge of the bracket by drilling a hole if it's impractical to drill the concrete. A final technique for concrete headers is the use of Securitron's "G" version Magnalock (not available in the 32 or 34 series) which incorporates a 1/2" female/-3/4" male universal threaded conduit fitting. The conduit fitting is placed on the end of the magnet body, and the problem of pulling wires into concrete is bypassed as the wires may be run in pipe in a surface mount configuration. The mounting holes on "G" locks are counter-bored from both sides to make the lock non-handed.

With a wooden frame, long wood screws are used to mount the Magnalock. The screws must penetrate as deeply as possible through the stop and frame into the header to yield adequate mounting strength. The Magnalock mounts to the bracket via machine screws and the bracket permits wood screws (furnished) to penetrate deeply into the header (see Figure 12)

2.6 MOUNTING THE MAGNALOCK ON EXTERIOR GATES

A popular application for the Magnalock is to secure motorized or manual exterior gates. The Magnalock has several benefits in this application. Gates tend not to be precisely fitted so electric bolts suffer from alignment failures. The Magnalock is designed to be self aligning and tolerates considerable inconsistency in the gate closed position as regards upward/downward
