Securitron Magnalock

What Securitron Magnalock does

Securitron Magnalock manufactures electromagnetic locks, access control components, power supplies, and accessories for commercial, institutional, and government security applications. Founded in 1978 (per company history), the company operates as a brand within ASSA ABLOY's Electronic Security Hardware division, headquartered at a 94,000 square-foot LEED Silver-certified facility in Phoenix, Arizona alongside sister brands Adams Rite, Alarm Controls, HES, and LifeSafety Power. Its core product platform centers on the Magnalock family of electromagnetic locks, spanning holding forces from 500 lbs (M380E) to 4,000 lbs (MM15), with proprietary EcoMag technology reducing power consumption by up to 80% versus prior generations. Intelligent features include BondSTAT bond sensors, PIR motion detection, door position monitoring, configurable LED status indicators, and tamper monitoring. The portfolio extends to keypads (DK-16/26), wireless readers, egress devices, specialty locks including the GL1 gate lock (2,000 lbs) and hazardous-location variants, cabinet locks, and the AQL/AQ Series power supplies — the latter incorporating the NetLink network communication module for remote monitoring acquired through the 2019 LifeSafety Power acquisition. The Aperio wireless platform integrates these components into broader access control architectures.

The company generates revenue exclusively through B2B channels — wholesale distributors, contract hardware distributors, Aperio-certified integrators, and Authorized ASSA ABLOY Service Providers (locksmiths) — with project-based quote pricing rather than public list prices. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; the February 2026 pricelist is available only to registered channel partners through the digital library. End markets span general commercial access control (primary segment), K-12 education, behavioral health and crisis intervention facilities, detention centers, and industrial/commercial sites with weather-exposed or high-traffic openings. All products are backed by the MagnaCare no-fault, no-questions-asked lifetime replacement warranty, which functions as both a differentiator and a switching-cost mechanism. Compliance certifications (UL 1034, UL 294, NEMA 4X, HUGS, NFPA 101, IBC) and the company's 40+ year brand heritage anchor its positioning in regulated verticals.

Direct peers

• Alarm Controls (ASSA ABLOY): Sister ASSA ABLOY Electronic Security Hardware brand offering request-to-exit devices, push buttons, and access control accessories. Comparable because Alarm Controls' egress devices are commonly specified alongside Securitron maglocks in the same access control system design.
• ROFU Sicherheitstüren / Rofu International: Manufacturer of electromagnetic locks and access control products with a strong presence in North American commercial and institutional channels. Comparable as a specialized maglock competitor with overlapping product positioning to Securitron's Magnalock line.
• DynaLock Corporation: US-based manufacturer specializing in electromagnetic locks, delayed egress systems, and access control components. Closely comparable niche competitor to Securitron's core Magnalock product line, particularly in delayed egress and high-security institutional applications.
• LifeSafety Power: Sister ASSA ABLOY brand acquired in 2019, specializing in intelligent, networked access control power supplies with the AQL/AQ Series and NetLink monitoring. Directly comparable because LifeSafety Power's products are co-marketed with Securitron and supply the powered backbone of Securitron maglock deployments.
• HES (Hanchett Entry Systems): Sister brand under ASSA ABLOY Electronic Security Hardware specializing in electric strikes for access control. Directly comparable to Securitron because they share parent, channel partners, and the same Phoenix facility, and together form the ASSA ABLOY electronic security hardware portfolio for door openings.
• Adams Rite: Sister ASSA ABLOY brand specializing in aluminum door hardware and electrified exit devices. Comparable as a co-located, co-distributed brand that competes for the same access control specification on commercial doors alongside Securitron's maglocks.

Broad incumbents

• Schlage (Allegion): Allegion-owned brand offering electrified locks, access control readers, and door hardware for commercial and institutional markets. Comparable to Securitron because Schlage's electrified locks and credentialed solutions compete for the same commercial opening specification.
• dormakaba: Swiss-listed global provider of access control, door hardware, and entrance solutions with strong North American presence. Comparable as a broad incumbent competing for the same commercial and institutional electrified door hardware specification that Securitron targets.
• Allegion: Publicly traded global provider of security products and access control solutions, owning brands such as Schlage, Von Duprin, and LCN. Comparable to Securitron because Allegion sells competing electrified locks and access control components through overlapping commercial and institutional channels.
