The LOX R40PCH-12 is a reliable, wall-mounted magnetic door holder with a built-in extension, designed to maintain doors in an open position until released. This unit operates on a fail-safe principle, automatically disengaging the door when power is cut—making it ideal for fire safety and emergency scenarios.
Constructed with a round electromagnetic lock and a durable steel armature plate, the R40PCH-12 delivers secure door holding for high-traffic areas in commercial, public, and institutional settings. Its extended body design (108 mm length) provides flexibility in installation, particularly where additional reach is required.
