Camden CX-MA0614-12 1/2" Filler Plate for Magnetic Lock
Overview
The CX-MA0614-12 is a 1/2" stainless steel filler plate designed to bridge frame gaps during magnetic lock installation on 600 lb. capacity systems. When a magnetic lock body and armature plate do not align flush to the door frame — typically due to non-standard door thickness or frame recess — this plate compensates for that gap, preventing installation stress on the lock housing and ensuring the magnet-to-armature air gap remains within specification. Deploy this in retrofit scenarios where existing frames require spacing adjustment without frame modification.
Compatibility
Engineered for Camden 600 lb. magnetic lock bodies operating at 24VDC. The CX-MA0614-12 pairs with any surface-mount or mortise-mount configuration in the 600 lb. class where frame-to-lock body standoff adjustment is needed. Verify your lock model documentation for explicit compatibility before ordering; mixing filler plate thicknesses can affect strike performance if the air gap exceeds manufacturer tolerance.
Installation Notes
Position the filler plate between the magnetic lock body and the door frame, flush with the armature mounting surface. Secure using the same fasteners as the lock body — no additional hardware required. Ensure the combined gap (lock body + plate + frame) does not exceed the lock manufacturer's maximum air-gap specification; excess gap reduces holding force. After installation, verify the armature plate sits parallel to the magnet face with no visible rocking or misalignment. If frame depth varies by more than 1/2" across the opening, consider stacking multiple plates or consulting a pre-sales engineer for frame-specific guidance.
