ZKTeco (ZK AL-280PZ) Brackets for electromagnetic locks

The ZKTeco ZK AL-280PZ is a specialized Z-style mounting bracket designed specifically for deploying 280 series electromagnetic locks on inward-swinging (inswing) doors. In a standard magnetic lock installation, the lock body mounts to the upper door frame while the armature plate attaches directly to the door leaf; however, when a door opens inward, there is insufficient physical clearance to mount the armature plate directly. The AL-280PZ solves this infrastructure challenge by providing a sturdy, Z-shaped extension configuration that cleanly offsets and drops the armature plate into the exact position required to establish a secure magnetic bond. Constructed from high-strength, sandblasted aluminum alloy, this professional accessory ensures the lock maintains its optimal 270kg (600lbs) holding force without slipping or flexing under physical pressure. It functions seamlessly within access control ecosystems in corporate offices, server rooms, and commercial facilities, pairing directly with ZKTeco AL-280(LED) and AL-280D(LED) series magnetic locks.

Key Features

• Inward-Swinging Door Solution: Specifically engineered to enable the installation of the magnetic lock’s sub-plate (armature plate) on doors that swing into a secure room.

• Broad Series Compatibility: Fully compatible with ZKTeco AL-280(LED), AL-280D(LED), and AL-350(LED) single and double magnetic lock series.

• Premium Aluminum Construction: Crafted from high-density, aircraft-grade aluminum alloy with an anodized surface treatment for exceptional durability and corrosion resistance.

• Maintains Full Holding Force: Rigidity ensures that the magnetic lock retains its optimal holding capacity of 270 kg to 300 kg under physical duress.

• Compact Physical Footprint: Features a space-saving design with specialized dimensions (185mm Length × 50mm Width × 50mm Height) to minimize door header obstruction.

• Lightweight Yet Robust: Weighs just 0.54 kg, adding negligible physical strain to the door hinges while providing maximum structural support.

• Pre-Drilled Mounting Guides: Arrives with factory-machined screw paths and alignment markings, significantly reducing installation time and leveling errors.

• Aesthetic Finish: Finished in a sleek, professional silver-metallic coat that complements standard anodized aluminum doors and interior frame designs.

• Anti-Residual Magnetism Clearance: Structured to prevent mechanical stickiness or delayed door release by allowing proper seating of the armature’s rubber washers.

• Commercial-Grade Wear Protection: Sandblasted surface resists scratching, fingerprint accumulation, and environmental wear in high-traffic commercial pathways.

Conclusion

The ZKTeco ZK AL-280PZ Z-Bracket is an essential, highly dependable accessory that guarantees professional-tier structural integration for electromagnetic access systems. By successfully adapting 280-series magnetic locks to inward-swinging doors, it removes structural limitations while preserving the full integrity of your facility’s physical security barrier. Its rugged aluminum composition, seamless alignment design, and clean silver aesthetic make it a cost-effective, must-have component for any comprehensive commercial door deployment.
