    Dynalock: High-Performance Electromagnetic Locks

    For over 30 years, Dynalock has specialized in the design and manufacture of high-quality, American-made electromagnetic locks. Known for their "Life Safety" focus, Dynalock products like the 2000 Series and the compact 2500 "Mini-Mag" are engineered for environments where reliability is the only option. Their locks feature no moving parts, making them virtually maintenance-free for the life of the building.

    We stock Dynalock's full range of 650 lbs to 1500 lbs holding force magnets, including specialized delayed egress systems (the 3101C series) which prevent unauthorized exit for a set period while meeting all life-safety codes. Dynalock is also a leader in weather-proof magnetic locks, perfect for outdoor gates and perimeter security where moisture and temperature extremes are a factor.

    PRO TIP: Preventing Residual Magnetism

    Cheap magnetic locks can sometimes "stick" even after power is cut because of residual magnetism in the metal. Dynalock uses a specialized Release Kick-Off mechanism and high-grade materials that ensure the door releases instantly the second power is removed. This is a critical safety feature for high-traffic egress routes.

    Dynalock maglocks ship Made in USA, brand new, from our warehouses across America. Order by 2 PM EST for same-day shipping.

    Dynalock Electromagnetic Lock FAQ

    Are all magnetic locks Fail-Safe?

    Yes. By design, all electromagnetic locks release when power is removed. This makes them inherently Fail-Safe, which is why they are approved for life-safety egress applications.

    What is "Delayed Egress" and when is it required?

    Delayed egress holds a door locked for 15 or 30 seconds after someone pushes the exit bar, while sounding an alarm. It is used in retail and healthcare settings to prevent theft or patient elopement while still meeting fire code.

    Can I use a Dynalock maglock on an outdoor gate?

    Yes. The Dynalock 2022 series is specifically designed for outdoor use with weather-sealed electronics that resist moisture, temperature extremes, and UV exposure.
