Description
Reliable Perimeter Protection with the Ees500M Non-Monitored Gate Magnet
Securing external gates presents a unique set of challenges compared to interior access control. Perimeter barriers face harsh weather conditions, physical strain from high winds, and frequent mechanical jarring from continuous daily use. Standard internal magnetic locks often fall short when exposed to driving rain, sub-zero winters, and external debris. Without a resilient, weather-sealed locking mechanism, sites face regular lock failures, compromised boundary security, and expensive callouts for maintenance.
The Ees500M Non-Monitored Gate Magnet delivers a dependable, heavy-duty solution specifically designed for external vehicular and pedestrian entrances. Engineered to provide robust holding force across demanding environments, this magnetic lock secures heavy steel, wrought iron, and timber gates without relying on fragile mechanical latches that jam or wear out over time. It creates an unyielding physical hold while remaining completely fail-safe to guarantee safe exit during power emergencies.
By focusing on core electromagnetic strength rather than complex internal monitoring circuits, this unit gives installers a streamlined, hard-wearing hardware piece. It easily integrates into wider access systems including keypads, long-range fob readers, intercoms, and automated gate controllers. Whether managing perimeter access for a bustling commercial logistics hub, an industrial estate, or a gated residential property, the unit ensures dependable boundary closure day after day.
Installation and Operational Workflow
Stage 1 Pre-Installation Alignment
Assess your gate structure to confirm proper mounting bracket requirements. Ensure posts and moving leaves close without mechanical binding. Fix the appropriate side brackets to provide a flat, rigid foundation for the magnet and armature plate.
Stage 2 Armature Cushion Setup
Mount the steel armature plate using the supplied rubber buffer washers. Allowing slight flexible movement on the plate ensures complete surface-to-surface contact with the magnet, which is essential for achieving maximum rated magnetic holding force.
Stage 3 Electrical Termination
Route your power cables through protected external conduits directly into the housing. Terminate the low voltage feed into the terminal block, configuring the unit for your chosen system voltage, then seal all entry points against ingress.
Stage 4 Access Controller Commissioning
Wire the power circuit through your external access control relays, break glasses, or automated gate controllers. Test entry triggers and safety loops to confirm the electromagnetic bond releases instantly whenever authorized signals trigger.
Detailed Specifications
| Specification | Rating or Standard | Practical Details |
|---|---|---|
| Product Category | External Electromagnetic Lock | Surface mounted hardware intended for external gates, automated barriers, and perimeter boundaries. |
| Monitoring Configuration | Non-Monitored | Standard circuit operation without internal hall effect relays, reducing wiring complexity at the gate. |
| Nominal Holding Force | Approx 500kg (1200lbs) | Substantial holding power to resist heavy leverage, environmental wind loading, and forced manual intrusion. |

| Failsafe Operation | Fail-Safe (Power to Lock) | The lock automatically disengages instantly when power drops, ensuring emergency egress pathways remain clear. |
| Environmental Housing | Weather Resistant Sealed Casing | Corrosion resistant enclosure engineered to protect internal magnetic coils against rain, dust, and temperature swings. |
| Mounting Suitability | Universal Gate Brackets Compatible | Works alongside standard external Z and L brackets for installation on swing, sliding, or double gate layouts. |
Key Operational Advantages
External gates operate under physical pressures that would ruin traditional locking systems. Mechanical latches can easily misalign as hinges settle, temperatures fluctuate, or ground movements slightly shift gate posts. When latches shift out of line, gates fail to catch, leaving entrances unlatched or jamming entirely. The Ees500M Non-Monitored Gate Magnet relies entirely on strong electromagnetic clamping. Without moving internal pins, gears, or spring-loaded catches, it is immune to the typical wear and alignment issues that plague mechanical latches.
The non-monitored architecture of the unit keeps installation quick and straightforward. For projects where gate feedback is already handled by separate external sensors, gate operator logic, or dedicated contact switches, this magnet eliminates unnecessary internal electronic parts. Installers simply supply low voltage power through the control relay, significantly cutting termination time out in the elements while maintaining great structural security.
Routine upkeep is just as practical. The solid metal face of the magnet and its accompanying armature plate require little more than occasional cleaning to remove surface dirt, road grime, or leaves. The robust metallic construction resists deliberate physical tampering, and the absence of exposed release handles stops unauthorised intruders from easily bypassing the barrier from the outside.
