Magnetic Lock Installation & Service – Eastern Washington & North Idaho

River City Locksmith installs and services magnetic locks (mag locks) as part of our advanced access control solutions for commercial, government, and institutional buildings throughout Eastern Washington, Spokane, Kootenai County, and North Idaho. Mag locks are ideal for securing high-traffic or restricted areas where fast, controlled entry is needed—without relying on mechanical parts that wear out or fail.

Magnetic locks use an electromagnet mounted to the door frame and an armature plate attached to the door, creating a powerful bond—often 600 to 1,200 lbs of holding force—when energized. Unlike traditional locks, mag locks have no moving latch or bolt, which makes them highly durable and perfect for integration with keypads, card readers, buzzer systems, motion sensors, and timed release controls.

Mag locks are commonly used in:

* Office buildings and medical facilities

* Server rooms and data centers

* Secure storage areas

* School and campus access points

* Government and municipal buildings

* Apartment lobby doors and gated entries

Our team installs mag locks in compliance with local fire codes and life safety requirements, including proper egress devices, request-to-exit sensors, and emergency release mechanisms where required. We ensure every system is set up with the right balance of security, user access, and code compliance.

Whether you’re upgrading to electronic access or building a new secure entry system from scratch, River City Locksmith provides complete mag lock solutions—designed, installed, and supported by certified professionals.
