Camden CX-MA1210 L Bracket for 1200 lb Magnetic Lock
Overview
The CX-MA1210 is an L-shaped mounting bracket engineered to support 1200 lb magnetic locks in standard commercial door frame installations. This bracket provides the structural alignment and load-bearing support needed to secure a magnetic strike to the door frame, preventing lateral shift and ensuring consistent face contact with the armature plate. Use this bracket when mounting a Camden CX-91 series magnetic lock (CX-91S-12 or CX-91M-12 models) on wood or metal frames where you need rigid positioning and full holding-force transfer.
Compatibility
The CX-MA1210 is designed for Camden's 1200 lb magnetic lock family, specifically the CX-91S-12 (surface-mount) and CX-91M-12 (mortise-mount) models. The bracket accommodates 24VDC magnetic lock power systems and integrates with standard access control installations using 24VDC supplies. The L-bracket geometry supports both standard wood-frame and metal-frame door openings typical in commercial buildings, retail, and industrial facilities. Verify frame material and thickness before installation—the mounting hole pattern is fixed and requires precise alignment with both the strike body and frame.
Installation Notes
The bracket mounts directly to the door frame using lag bolts or wood screws (hardware not included). Ensure the frame is straight and plumb before securing; misalignment reduces holding force and may cause armature rattle or release under load. Check that the strike body seats fully against the bracket—any gap between strike and bracket transfers stress to fasteners and reduces effective strength. For metal frames, use stainless steel fasteners to prevent corrosion. The 1200 lb rating assumes full contact and proper torque; under-torqued fasteners will compromise performance.
