Door Holders
1500 Series
The Edwards 1500 Series electromagnetic door
holders feature housings finished with durable
baked polyester powder paint. The floor or wall
section houses the electromagnet while the
contact plate attaches to the door. The contact
plate has a shock absorbing nylon (swivel) ball
that allows the plate to adjust to any door angle.
Floor units are available in single-door or double-
door (back to back) versions. Wall units are
available in flush or surface mounted versions.
If power fails, doors are released automatically but
may be opened or closed manually at any time. All
units are free of moving parts, are self-contained
and require no maintenance.
The device holders hold a door open while
energized. When de-energized by a relay
controlled by the fire alarm system or other switch,
the door is released to a closed position.
