5. ALUMINUM FRAME MAGNALOCK MOUNTING
Mounting the ASB aluminum spacer bracket onto an aluminum frame header requires use of the
blind nuts and 1/4-20 socket head cap mounting screws. Proper use of the blind nuts and
mounting screws ensure a safe and secure mounting of the Magnalock reducing the possibility of
the Magnalock becoming loose during regular use. Figure 3 illustrates a visual concept of the
parts that will be applied to secure the ASB bracket in an M62 Magnalock installation. The
amount of blind nuts and the length of the screws vary depending on the model Magnalock being
installed.
