Frequently asked questions

What is a shear lock?

A lock whose two parts sit face to face, one in the frame and one in the door, and hold against a sideways pull. This one holds up to 1,200kg in the shear position.

Does it stay locked in a power cut?

Only while its own power supply stays on, because it is fail safe. It stays locked through a mains cut only on a battery-backed supply, and on an escape route it must still release, usually through a fire alarm link and a release device. Check this with whoever holds the building's fire strategy.

What doors does it suit?

Single action doors that always rest at the same position and have good quality door closers fitted, in aluminium or wood.

Can it be surface mounted?

It is a flush mount lock, and CDVI makes a surface housing for it as a separate part.

Can the controller see if the door is locked?

Yes. It is monitored as standard, with a NO/NC relay for a controller input.

CDVI 1200kg Fail Safe Shear Lock, Flush Mount, Monitored, 12 to 24Vdc SHL1200

Overview

Some doors need a strong electric lock with nothing showing on the surface. This CDVI shearlock fits flush, so it suits doors where a surface lock would look out of place or get in the way.

It suits access control installers fitting aluminium or wooden doors that close reliably to the same position every time.

How a shear lock holds

  • Shear position: the lock body and its mating part sit face to face across the gap between door and frame. The 1,200kg figure is the holding force in that shear position.
  • Fail safe: the lock holds only while powered and releases when the power stops. That is why it is chosen where the door must open in a power failure.
  • Monitoring: a NO/NC relay gives a status signal for a controller input. NO means normally open and NC normally closed.
  • Varistor: a coil gives off a voltage spike, called back EMF, as it switches off. The built-in varistor absorbs it to protect keypads and access control units.

Where to use it

It suits single action doors that always rest at the same position, fitted with good quality door closers. A door that sags or bounces will not line up, so the closer matters as much as the lock.

The operating range is -25°C to 70°C. On an escape route, settle how a fail safe lock will release before fitting.

Installing it

The lock mounts flush, and the body is 267 mm long, so allow for that in the frame and door preparation. An optional surface housing covers jobs where flush fitting is not possible.

Wire the NO/NC relay to a controller input if lock status is needed. Confirm the current draw before choosing a power supply, since the lock is powered all the time it is locked.

Planning your system

A fail safe lock needs a power supply, a way to open it from outside and a way out from inside. In most installations that means a reader or keypad, an exit button and a battery-backed supply.

Browse access control power supplies, access control keypads and exit buttons and door release to complete the door. The guide to fail safe and fail secure locking explains the egress rules.
