Securitron MM15 User Manual

Door prep/armature mounting, Mm15 magnalock mounting

With the door closed, align the

armature template between the

tabs on the mounting plate and

mark the three holes.

For Metal Doors: Locate the middle

marked hole. Center punch and drill

a 3/8” hole through the door. Enlarge

hole from the outside face to 1/2”.

For Wood doors: Drill a 1/2” hole

through the door.

Center punch and drill two 1/4”

(x 1/2” deep min.) holes in the

inside face of the door for the

two anti-rotation pins.

Lay the armature on a clean,

flat surface and insert the 3/16”

x 3/4” roll pins provided into

the two holes on the back of

the armature. Gently tap the

roll pins with a small hammer

or mallet until they are firmly

seated.

Insert sex bolt from the outside

face of the door.

Place the O-ring on the shoulder

screw and insert through the

armature.

Place the spring washer(s) on

the shoulder screw to provide

the spacing required for the

armature to fully contact the

MM15.

Locate the armature with roll

pins onto the door.

Fasten shoulder screw to sex bolt

with a 3/16” hex wrench using

thread lock. Additional spring

washers may be necessary to

ensure that the armature floats

properly, but is not loose.

Door Prep/Armature Mounting

QTY

COMPONENT

Secure the MM15 to the mounting plate with the three 1/4-20 x

1-3/4” cap screws, feeding the wiring through the filler plate and

header. If using conduit option, the wires exit through the side of

the MM15 Maglock.

Replace the MM15 cover by aligning it with the tapped holes and

pushing it up until the lip snaps into place.

Fasten cover with the two #6-32x1/4” flat head screws.

MM15 Magnalock Mounting

The standard MM15 Maglock unit will operate on 12 to 24 VAC or VDC

and is not polarity sensitive.

18-gauge (minimum) wire should be used to minimize voltage drop.

Connection of a reverse diode or M.O.V. in parallel with the MM15’s

power input is not necessary. The MM15’s internal circuitry suppresses

the inductive kickback often seen with electromagnetic coil locks.

Monitor Switches

MM15 Maglocks ordered with the monitoring option are fitted with

two SPDT microswitches that provide the following indications:

Door Position – Armature closed against the MM15 Maglock.

(*) Tamper Warning – Indicates that the MM15 is being

forced enough to activate the locking arms. When

locking arms are activated, tamper switch changes state.
