Introducing the SML-3000 Compact, Powerful with Maximum Security. Now Available at Controls for Doors
At Controls for Doors, we're committed to bringing you the latest innovations in access control and door security. We're pleased to announce that we now supply the SML-3000 — a high-performance magnetic lock designed to deliver exceptional strength in a compact, installer-friendly format.
A New Benchmark in Magnetic Locking
The SML-3000 is a surface-mounted, monitored magnetic lock engineered for high-security applications. Despite its ultra-compact design, it delivers an impressive 1400kg (3000lb) holding force, making it significantly more powerful than many traditional maglocks—while taking up less space.
This makes it an ideal solution for installations where head height is limited, or where a discreet but powerful locking solution is required.
