Hi/Shear® Magnetic Door Locks
IDC Hi/Shear® magnetic lock utilizes several of the most innovative and unique design attributes. The Hi/Shear is the magnetic lock that gives those who want a better shear lock all the latest features.
The IDC Hi/Shear® is a totally concealed, high security, failsafe locking mechanism with superior appearance. The patented Hi/Shear® electromagnetic lock design incorporates a "floating" armature assembly and special alloy steel locking "tabs" on both the lock and armature assemblies, that may be adjusted both vertically and laterally to compensate for wide door gaps and warped or misaligned doors.
Hi/Shear® magnetic locks are ideal for use on commercial grade hollow metal and wood doors and frames and Herculite doors with top rails.

Hi/Shear® Magnetic Lock Features
warped or misaligned
doors, permitting
accurate locking.
Door Static and Alignment Sensor
The door static sensor ensures that the door is at rest and aligned, before the magnet is permitted to energize, eliminating potential for lock misalignment.
Lateral Alignment Adjustment
Lateral adjustment of shear tabs to compensate for
Adjustable Tabs
Vertical Alignment Adjustment
Vertical adjustment of both the armature and the adjustable delay relock sensor compensates for wide door gaps.
Floating" Assembly
A unique "floating" action makes for easier armature lift when the magnet is energized and provides the ability to overcome wide door gaps.
2000 or 2700 Lbs Holding Force
2000 or 2700lbs. of holding force without current inrush or high operating temperature normally associated with shear locks.
Alloy Steel Shear "Tabs" on Lock and Armature
Alloy shear tabs are used on both the lock and the armature to ensure continued high holding force. There is no profiling of the soft armature steel that may be prone to wear and reduced holding force.
Advanced Electronic Circuitry
Advanced electronic circuitry that incorporates door static, positioning and timed relock sensor and automatic voltage sensing for 12/24VDC input.
Quieter Operation
Noise dampeners greatly reduce the noise associated with locking and unlocking of other shear locks on the market.

Surface Mount Hi/Shear®
Surface mount configurations incorporate the innovative 2000 lb holding force Hi/Shear® electromagnetic lock in a compact housing smaller than many mini surface mount direct pull magnetic locks. The surface mount design also provides the advantage of mounting the Hi/Shear® on the secure side of the door opening, eliminating potential for tampering.
1561S Surface mounted to the push side of an out-swing door. For metal door and frame, glass door with top rail and metal frame, or wood door and frame
1561TJ Surface mounted to the pull side of an in-swing door. For metal door and frame, glass door with top rail and metal frame, or wood door and frame. This mounting configuration eliminates the need for cumbersome and unsightly top jamb Z brackets normally associated with pull side mounted of magnetic locks
Semi-Concealed Hi/Shear®
The semi-concealed configuration incorporates the innovative 2000 lb Hi/Shear® concealed electromagnetic lock with a surface mounted armature assembly. The semi-concealed design also provides the advantage of mounting the Hi/Shear® on the secure side of the door opening, eliminating potential for tampering.
1562SC Semi-concealed mounted to the push side of an out-swing door. The mortise magnet is concealed in the frame and the armature is surface mounted on the door. For metal door and frame, glass door with top rail and metal frame, or wood door and metal frame.
1562SCHDB 1/2 Semi-concealed mounted to the push side of an out-swing glass door. The mortise magnet is concealed in the frame and the armature is surface mounted on the ½" glass door where no top rail is present utilizing the Herculite door bracket.
1562SCHDB 3/4 Semi-concealed mounted to the push side of an out-swing glass door. The mortise magnet is concealed in the frame and the armature is surface mounted on the ¾" glass door where no top rail is present utilizing the Herculite door bracket.
Options
BA Bond sensor indicates proper armature contact or reduced holding power due to improper armature contact or tampering. SPDT 0.25Amp (not available on 1562 / 1566)
DPS Door position switch indicates door open or closed. SPDT 0.25 Amp maximum.
