In the access control sector, the priority is security, whether in residential, commercial or industrial environments. In this context, electromagnets and solenoids play a key role in access control.
How do electromagnets work in access control?
Electromagnets or solenoids manufactured for the access control sector are specifically used in access turnstiles, doors or other devices.
Linear electromagnets designed for access turnstiles are those that enable/disable the opening of the door (commanded by a motor).
In the door application, a linear electromagnet or an electromagnetic or magnetic suction cup can generally be used. In this case, the electromagnetic or magnetic suction cup holds the door once it is open.
Linear electromagnets are the best choice for this industry due to their high safety, ease of installation, quiet operation and low energy consumption. Both single-acting linear electromagnets and high-performance electromagnets offer a complete, customized and efficient solution for different uses.
Electromagnet and solenoid applications in access control
Electromagnets designed for access control offer a variety of solutions, from magnetic locks to electric security locking systems, including use in safes, lockers, cabinets with keyless locks, numerically controlled warehouses, magnetic switches, automatic opening and closing systems, as well as integration in access turnstiles and turnstiles/turnstiles to regulate the flow of people.
Advantages of electromagnets in access control
The main advantage of electromagnets in the field of access control is that they provide superior security to traditional locks, as they are more resistant to tampering and forced entry.
In addition, they allow remote access control as they can be integrated with electronic systems. This makes it possible to open and close doors using cards, electronic key fobs or biometric recognition. They also stand out for their ability to integrate with home automation and alarm systems, allowing automated management of the opening and closing of doors.
Another advantage is that they require almost no maintenance; as they have no moving parts, they offer greater durability compared to mechanical locks. In addition, their discreet installation in the door frame favors a clean and unobtrusive aesthetics.
