280KG/600Lbs ZLC bracket 

A ZLC bracket is a specialized mounting component primarily used in access control systems, particularly for installing electromagnetic locks (maglocks) on inward-swinging doors. The "ZLC" designation often refers to a specific design variant optimized for narrow doorframes or space-constrained environments. These brackets are typically constructed from anodized aluminum for corrosion resistance and structural stability, with dimensions tailored to fit S4A factory's EL-600S, EL-600SD ,EL-600ST ,EL-600S,Z 280 kg (600LBS ) or higher capacity maglocks

Key Features:

Dual-Part Design: Comprises two interlocking sections (often referred to as "Z" and "L" shaped) that securely fasten the lock body and armature plate while ensuring the magnet remains on the protected side of the door.

Space Efficiency: Ideal for narrow doors or metal/wooden doorframes where standard brackets may protrude excessively.

Load Bearing: Engineered to handle high-security maglocks, with models supporting up to 600 lbs of holding force.

Installation Flexibility: Some variants include wire management channels to conceal cables, enhancing aesthetics and safety

When to Install a ZLC Bracket:

Inward-Swinging Doors: The ZLC design addresses the challenge of mounting maglocks on doors that open toward the interior, where traditional brackets might interfere with door operation.

Narrow Doorframes: Its compact profile makes it suitable for doors with limited space, such as those in historic buildings or modern minimalist designs.

High-Security Needs: Used in commercial or industrial settings requiring robust locking systems, like data centers, banks, or healthcare facilities

Outdoor/Gate Applications: Heavy-duty ZLC brackets (e.g., EL-600 series ) are designed for exterior use, combining weather resistance with high load capacity.

Concealed Wiring Requirements: Models like the LC bracket (related to ZLC) integrate cable management, which is critical for maintaining a clean, code-compliant installation 

Example Scenarios:

Office Buildings: Securing fire exits or server room doors with inward swing using 600 lbs maglocks paired with ZLC brackets.

Retail Stores: Installing access control on narrow fitting room doors where space is limited.

Residential High-Rises: Enhancing security on balcony doors that open inward without compromising aesthetics

Technical Considerations:

Compatibility: Always verify the bracket’s compatibility with the specific maglock model (e.g., S4A factory's EL-600S, EL-600SD, EL-600ST, EL-600SZ, 280KG works only with 600 lbs locks) 

Material Selection: Anodized aluminum variants are preferred for outdoor use, while stainless steel may be required in corrosive environments.

Installation: Proper alignment is crucial to prevent misalignment issues, which can reduce lock efficiency. Manufacturer guidelines (e.g., Visionis’ installation diagrams) should be strictly .

In summary, the ZLC bracket is a niche solution addressing the unique challenges of securing inward-swinging doors in space-constrained or high-security environments. Its design balances functionality, durability, and aesthetics, making it a preferred choice for professionals in access control systems.
