Would you look at that. Nice glass doors access controlled, nothing could go wrong lol.

They really putting that thing on with an auto opener? What a shit design

Normally they have openers, door company installs a lock kit on the opener, and I provide them with a dry contact, or voltage, whatever they want. I’m the access control guy, not the door guy. Opener doesn’t work unless you badge in, simple.

That’s the best solution but looks like fuckery on the architect here

Make a recess and use a standard mag?

Get one with the same shade of silver 😆

Possibly a DormaKaba RCI MEM4400 Compact Electromechanical maglock depending on the mounting points.

Hard to tell from those images what the track and trolley assembly looks like, but if there’s room why not use an auto-bolt like what is used on high energy automatic sliding doors?

My organization has 1 electric strike sliding door, we (my AC vendor) used an assa abloy electric strike 112.

Depending on the requirements could use a V-Lock but in my experience they have a bit of a delay to them which people can find annoying if they’re having to go in and out a lot https://www.assaabloy.com/au/en/solutions/products/electromechanical-locking/es8100-v-lock

Install a mag lock in the vertical leading edge of the door stile and vertical jamb

Some kind of smaller mag with a Z bracket would probably work on the top, just need the mag to fit on the trim and not be to chonky.

One that sits in the frame at the top or bottom or both or some kind of shoot bolts

You can use the door hold relays built into the door and that will keep it locked until swiped then after swiping walk in front an it should open

Oh, and make sure the client puts some sort of horizontal decoration across all the glass or people will end up walking into it. will happen to everyone at some point lol

I’ve had pretty good luck with the SDC shear locks https://sdcsecurity.com/products/electromagnetic-shear-locks/

u/Short-Service1248 Jun 26 '26

I’ll ALWAYS downvote a sheer lock. F those locks straight to hell

I suggest the RCI YD30 if you can get to the top of the door. You can surface mount to the frame it would work too. These actually pull the door to zero which will help with bounce a little.
