What are magnetic locks?

access control for business greenwich

Everybody of course knows what a lock is – it’s a simple way to keep yourself and your property safe and secure and to keep your valuables and property intact. But the question of what magnetic locks are is something that might leave potential safety-seekers confused… so we’re here to fill in the blanks and give you the info.

In a nutshell, the answer to what magnetic locks are is pretty simple… it’s a way to use the powerful natural force of magnets to keep things secure. Sometimes this can be as simple as a gentle magnet to stop children and pets opening doors to keep them safe, while others can be a high-powered affair to keep your most valuable things as secure as possible.

Some magnetic locks that you might already have encountered (and not even realised it) include…

  • Hotel doors that you open with a key card;
  • Fire safety doors which are held open;
  • Doors which are opened with a button;
  • And plenty more…

So they’re really that simple. What separates a normal lock and key system from a magnetic lock is that the latter are often safer, more secure and more reliable – all factors which make them less liable to being exploited.

They also use very little electric power, and if installed by a professional, they’re very easy to set up. It’s essential to use a professional locksmith. Luckily, that’s where we come in!
