Why the LMB180U Magnetic Lock Brackets
ZKTeco’s standard magnetic locks are designed for out‑swing doors. When working with frameless glass, in‑swing doors, or fire-rated cabinets, mounting requires an intermediate bracket to hold the iron armature plate securely. The LMB‑180U U‑Brace fills this role superbly:
-
Designed for 180 kg (LMB‑180) class magnetic locks
-
U-shaped configuration suits glass, fire doors, and wooden or metal frames
-
Ensures proper alignment between the magnet and armature plate
-
Made of industrial‑grade metal for long‑term strength
This bracket transforms both installation ease and aesthetics without compromising door integrity.

Ideal Use Cases in Kenyan Installations
Glass Doors in Modern Office Blocks
For frameless glass doors (8–12 mm thick), traditional strike plates won’t work. The U‑Bracket supports the lock’s armature plate securely, offering sleek alignment and safety during door swings. Also suitable for fire-rated entryways where cutting glass is not an option.
Retrofitting Existing Locks to In‑Swing Doors
If your magnetic lock was originally meant for out‑swing doors, the LMB‑180U enables in‑swing mounting without compromising holding force—ensuring the magnet stays on the protected side of the door frame.
Fire-Rated or Resistant Door Installations
Fire doors with metal or composite frames often cannot accommodate typical lock brackets. The U‑Bracket suits these settings by anchoring the lock surface firmly without affecting fire compliance.
High‑Traffic Access Control in Retail, Hospitals, and Offices
When linking ZKTeco fingerprint readers or access control panels to magnetic locks, correct alignment is critical. The LMB‑180U ensures perfect positioning and consistent lock operation across daily usage cycles.
How It Works
-
Install the EM lock body onto the door frame (inside) using screws.
-
Mount the LMB‑180U bracket outside or inside the frame, depending on swing direction.
-
Attach the iron armature plate onto the bracket surface to align exactly with the electrical magnet.
-
Tighten and align—ensuring full contact and optimal holding force.
-
Test door operation—bracket supports up to 180 kg lock strength over repeated cycles.
This configuration preserves both structural integrity and door movement in high-traffic settings.
