MODEL MXD-32, MXD-62 DOOR MOVEMENT EXIT DELAY
INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. DESCRIPTION
The MXD consists of several components which, when combined with a Magnalock, will
produce an initiate signal for delayed exit as controlled by Securitron’s XDT logic timer
when a person pushes on the door and moves it a modest distance. Use of the MXD permits
delayed exit without the need to alter the existing door latch and hardware. The one inch door
movement, that it supports, eliminates the potential problem of false triggering. It is also
highly tamper resistant in the event to defeat its safety function of allowing people to exit.
The specific components within the MXD “kit” are:
ƒ Stainless steel housing covers the magnet body, mounting plate and proximity switch array.
ƒ Permanent magnet is affixed to a bracket that mounts behind the strike plate and to the
door. As this unit moves away from the proximity array, the array changes states.
ƒ Sex bolt with internal spring that permits the door to move away from the strike plate (the
strike plate remains secured to the magnet body) so as to create the initiate signal when a
person pushes on the door opening it up to one inch.
2. PHYSICAL INSTALLATION
2.1 DETERMINING HORIZONTAL OR VERTICAL MOUNT AND APPLYING TEMPLATE
The MXD can be mounted horizontally under the frame header or vertically along the frame.
Once you have selected the orientation for your installation, apply the template to set your
mounting positions. Position the fold in the template along the edge the door stop makes with
the door surface so that the sub-plate portion of the template extends on to the door stop and
the strike/permanent magnet bracket portion extends on to the door surface. If you have a
swing through type aluminum frame glass door, there is no door stop so you simply
position the template fold line on the edge between the door surface and frame stile. In planning
your installation for this type of door, a special consideration comes into play. First, before
drilling any holes, you want to be sure that the aluminum door rail is wide enough to
support the sex bolt. The MXD sex bolt is 1” (25.4mm) diameter which is much thicker than
normal magnetic lock sex bolts. This type of door is made with extrusion widths which vary
widely but some are so narrow that you can only mount the MXD sex bolt when you are using
the model 32 lock. Some others will accept a model 62 lock but only when you are using the
offset strike. To determine in advance whether your door and the Magnalock that you intend to
use will accept the MXD sex bolt, just hold the template so that you can visually see the center
point of where the sex bolt will go into the door rail. Assure yourself that a 1” diameter hole
around this point will not strike the glass or any support rods internally. If you have an
aluminum frame glass door with a blade stop, see the next section as the template is used
differently. The template will work on horizontal or vertical mounts and on left hand
