The UB-600 U-bracket is specifically engineered to provide structural mounting compatibility between access control electromagnetic locks and frameless glass door assemblies. Designed for single-door hardware configurations, the bracket serves as the direct mechanical interface for securing the moving armature plate to a frameless glass door panel without structural modification or glass cutouts.
Electromagnetic Lock Rating and Series Compatibility
The UB-600 bracket is matched for use with standard single-leaf electromagnetic locks rated at 600 lbs (280 kg) holding force. In standard electromagnetic locking systems, the stationary magnet body mounts to the fixed door frame or header, while the corresponding steel armature plate requires a rigid, level mounting point on the door leaf. The UB-600 provides the precise structural mounting base required for standard 280 kg single EM lock armature assemblies, aligning the armature plate directly opposite the magnet face for maximum magnetic contact and holding efficiency.
Glass Door Thickness and Leaf Specifications
This mounting bracket is engineered exclusively for frameless glass door leaves. It accommodates standard commercial tempered glass leaves with panel thicknesses ranging from 10 mm to 12 mm.
Because commercial frameless glass leaves cannot be drilled, tapped, or perforated after the tempering process, the UB-600 utilizes a direct clamp-over-glass installation profile. The U-profile slides directly over the top glass edge, clamping securely around the 10 mm or 12 mm glass substrate. Intermediary protective shims and rubber gaskets must be placed between the interior aluminium walls and the glass surface during installation to distribute clamping force evenly and prevent localized stress, micro-fractures, or glass cracking.
Door Swing Configuration and Opening Modes
The UB-600 supports commercial door sets operating on a standard 90-degree opening mode. It integrates into both 90-degree in-swing and 90-degree out-swing frameless glass door systems when installed in conjunction with the appropriate magnetic lock headers and corresponding header brackets. The physical profile ensures full functional clearance during the entire 90-degree swing arc without interfering with door pivots or overhead clearances.
Physical Dimensions and Hardware Form Factor
Fabricated from high-strength aluminium with an anodized aluminium shell and sandblast finish, the UB-600 features exact structural dimensions of 180 mm in length, 40 mm in width, and 28 mm in height. Weighing 0.3 kg, the assembly delivers structural rigidity without introducing unnecessary dead load onto the glass pivots or floor springs.
