Overview
Why Use Electromagnetic Door Holders
Electromagnetic door holders are the smart choice for facilities that demand both convenience and compliance. They keep doors open during daily operations, release automatically on alarm or power loss, and integrate seamlessly with fire alarm and building management systems. With 100 lb holding force, low current draw, and stainless steel durability, they deliver safety, efficiency, and long‑term value across healthcare, education, hospitality, commercial, and industrial sectors.
- Fail‑safe safety for fire protection Electromagnetic door holders are designed to release instantly when power is removed or when a fire alarm triggers. This ensures the door closer returns the door to the closed position, preventing unsafe propping and restoring fire compartmentation. They are a code‑compliant solution for keeping fire doors open during daily operations while guaranteeing automatic closure in emergencies.
- Everyday convenience and accessibility These devices provide hands‑free hold‑open functionality for carts, stretchers, wheelchairs, and high foot traffic. They eliminate the need for wedges or mechanical catches, reduce wear on door closers, and improve workflow in hospitals, schools, hotels, offices, and warehouses.
- Durable stainless construction With a stainless steel housing, electromagnetic door holders resist corrosion and withstand frequent cleaning. This makes them ideal for hygienic environments such as healthcare facilities, food processing plants, and coastal buildings.
- Integration with building systems Electromagnetic door holders easily connect to fire alarm panels, smoke detectors, access control systems, and building management systems (BMS). This ensures centralized monitoring, supervised release, and compliance with safety regulations.
Floor-mount
Overview Floor‑mount electromagnetic door holders are installed at floor level, making them perfect for heavy doors, wide openings, and industrial environments. Their robust design ensures reliable hold‑open performance even under demanding conditions.
Benefits
- Heavy‑duty performance — ideal for larger, heavier doors with strong closers.
- Fail‑safe safety — releases automatically on alarm or power loss for fire safety compliance.
- Rugged construction — stainless housing withstands impact, dust, and industrial environments.
- Flexible positioning — floor mounting allows installation where wall space is limited.
- Retrofit friendly — optional surface‑mount boxes and accessories simplify upgrades.
Recommended usages
- Warehouses and loading bays where large swing doors must stay open during operations.
- Industrial production areas with heavy doors and frequent material handling.
- Public buildings and transport hubs where wide corridor doors require strong holding force.
Flush-mount
Overview Flush‑mount electromagnetic door holders are designed to be recessed into the wall or frame, creating a clean, low‑profile installation that blends seamlessly with modern interiors. This mounting style is ideal for projects where aesthetics, space efficiency, and unobtrusive hardware are priorities.
Benefits
- Discreet appearance — recessed installation keeps the holder flush with the wall or frame, maintaining a sleek architectural look.
- Fail‑safe operation — releases instantly on alarm or power loss, ensuring fire doors close automatically for safety compliance.
- Durable stainless construction — resists corrosion and supports hygienic environments such as hospitals, laboratories, and food processing facilities.
- Space‑efficient design — perfect for narrow corridors or areas where protruding hardware could be a hazard.
- Integration ready — connects to fire alarm panels, smoke detectors, access control, and building management systems.
Recommended usages
- Healthcare facilities where unobtrusive hardware supports infection control and patient safety.
- Corporate offices and hotels where architectural design demands a clean, modern finish.
- Laboratories and cleanrooms where flush surfaces reduce dust accumulation and simplify cleaning.
- Public buildings and schools where recessed hardware prevents accidental bumps or damage.
Surface-mount
Overview Surface‑mount electromagnetic door holders are designed for quick installation directly onto walls, frames, or floors without the need for recessing. They are the most versatile option, making them ideal for retrofit projects, temporary setups, or facilities where concealed mounting isn’t practical.
Benefits
- Fast installation — mounts directly onto the surface, reducing labor time and simplifying upgrades.
- Fail‑safe operation — releases instantly on alarm or power loss, ensuring fire doors close automatically for safety compliance.
- Durable stainless housing — resists corrosion and supports hygienic environments such as hospitals, kitchens, and laboratories.
- Flexible positioning — can be installed on walls, floors, or frames depending on site requirements.
- Retrofit friendly — perfect for upgrading existing doors without major structural modifications.
- Integration ready — connects to fire alarm panels, smoke detectors, access control, and building management systems.
Recommended usages
- Hospitals and schools where quick installation is needed across multiple corridors.
- Warehouses and industrial sites where exposed mounting is more practical than recessed options.
- Hotels, offices, and public buildings where retrofitting existing doors requires minimal disruption.
- Food processing and cleanroom environments where stainless housing supports hygiene and easy cleaning.
