Cametron
Cametron Access Control Accessories in Pakistan — Complete Hardware Range
Every access control installation needs more than just a biometric terminal. The physical security of your door depends entirely on the quality of the hardware connecting that terminal to the door — the lock that holds it shut, the sensor that detects if it opens, the button that lets people exit safely, and the bracket that positions everything correctly. Cametron provides the complete range of access control hardware accessories needed to complete any professional door installation in Pakistan.
IOT Systems supplies the full Cametron product range — all 6 models currently in stock — with expert compatibility advice, professional installation, and after-sales support across Pakistan.
Cametron Product Range — All 6 Products Explained
Magnetic Lock MGL-XXXX — ELECTROMAGNETIC LOCK
The Cametron MGL-XXXX is a standard electromagnetic door lock — the most widely used electric locking device in access control installations across Pakistan. The lock body mounts on the door frame and an armature plate mounts on the door itself. When the system is armed, electrical current creates a powerful magnetic field that bonds the lock body and armature plate together with several hundred kilograms of holding force — making the door impossible to open without authorization.
When the access controller grants entry — after reading a valid card, fingerprint, or facial recognition — the current cuts and the magnetic bond releases instantly, allowing the door to open. The Cametron MGL-XXXX is available in multiple holding force ratings. The correct rating depends on the door type, size, and traffic level:
- 180kg holding force — suitable for internal office doors and lightweight internal doors
- 280kg holding force — suitable for standard commercial office entrances and internal secure doors
- 350kg holding force — suitable for medium-security commercial entrances and side entrances
- 500kg holding force — suitable for main building entrances, lobby doors, and high-traffic access points
- 600kg holding force — suitable for high-security entrances, server room doors, and restricted area access
The MGL-XXXX is fail-safe by design — it releases automatically during a power failure, ensuring safe evacuation in emergencies. It requires a 12V DC power supply and is compatible with all major access control brands including Virdi UBio, Suprema, HID, Soyal, and ICT.
Magnetic Drop Bolt Lock MDBL-XXXX — DROP BOLT LOCK
The Cametron MDBL-XXXX is an electric drop bolt lock — a fundamentally different locking mechanism from the electromagnetic lock. Instead of using magnetic attraction, the drop bolt uses a solid steel bolt that physically drops into a strike plate mounted in the door frame. This mechanical bolt provides stronger, more robust physical locking — making it significantly harder to defeat by force than an electromagnetic lock.
The drop bolt lock is available in fail-secure and fail-safe versions:
- Fail-secure — the bolt remains engaged (door stays locked) when power is cut. Used on server rooms, vaults, and any door that must stay locked during a power failure.
- Fail-safe — the bolt retracts (door unlocks) when power is cut. Used where fire safety and evacuation compliance require the door to be accessible during emergencies.
The MDBL-XXXX is ideal for server room doors, strong room entries, pharmacy stores, data centers, and any high-security access point where maximum physical resistance to forced entry is required. It operates on 12V or 24V DC and is compatible with all standard access controllers via relay output.
Frameless Glass Magnetic Lock FL-GMGL — GLASS DOOR LOCK
The Cametron FL-GMGL is an electromagnetic lock specifically engineered for frameless glass doors — the most challenging door type to secure in modern office environments. Standard EM locks are designed to mount on a door frame, but frameless glass doors have no frame to mount to. The FL-GMGL solves this with a specialized design that clamps or adheres directly to the glass panel itself, with the armature plate mounted on the glass door leaf.
The FL-GMGL is essential for modern office environments where frameless glass doors are used for meeting rooms, executive offices, reception areas, and secure floor entries. It provides the same electromagnetic locking performance as a standard MGL lock while being specifically designed for clean, discreet installation on glass — with no visible frame mounting required. Compatible with all standard access controllers via relay output.
EPB-33 Exit Push Button — EXIT BUTTON
The Cametron EPB-33 is a wall-mounted exit push button — also called a Request to Exit (REX) button — that allows anyone inside a secured area to leave without needing a card, fingerprint, or PIN. Pressing the EPB-33 sends a signal to the access controller, which releases the electric lock for a programmable time (typically 3-5 seconds) — enough time for the person to push the door open and pass through.
The EPB-33 is not optional — it is a mandatory component of every access-controlled door installation for two reasons. First, fire safety and emergency egress regulations require that anyone inside a secured area must always be able to exit immediately without needing to authenticate. Second, without an exit button, people would need to present a credential every time they want to leave, which is impractical and slows building traffic significantly.
The EPB-33 features a large, clearly marked push surface, a built-in LED indicator showing system status, and a durable housing suitable for high-frequency use in commercial environments. It mounts on a standard single-gang back box on the secure (inside) face of the door.
Magnetic Door Contact Switch MC-51 — DOOR SENSOR
The Cametron MC-51 is a magnetic door contact switch — a two-part sensor consisting of a magnet and a reed switch. The reed switch mounts on the door frame and the magnet mounts on the door leaf itself. When the door is closed, the magnet holds the reed switch in its normal position. When the door opens, the magnet moves away from the reed switch, changing its state and sending a signal to the access controller or alarm panel.
The MC-51 enables the following critical security functions:
- Forced door alarm — alerts the access controller immediately if a door is pushed open without a valid access event (possible break-in)
- Door open too long alarm — triggers an alert if a door remains open beyond the programmed maximum time (possible tailgating or door being held open)
- Real-time door status — shows the exact open/closed state of every door on the management software dashboard in real time
- Access log accuracy — confirms that a door physically opened after an access event, verifying that the lock actually released and the door was used
The MC-51 is surface-mounted and suitable for wooden, metal, and UPVC door frames. It connects to the access controller via a two-wire signal input and requires no separate power supply.
L-Bracket L-BRT — MOUNTING BRACKET
The Cametron L-BRT is an L-shaped metal mounting bracket used to install electromagnetic locks on outward-opening doors. Standard EM locks are designed to mount directly on the door frame and engage with an armature plate on the door face — this works perfectly for inward-opening doors. However, when a door opens outward (toward the visitor), the geometry changes and the lock body cannot be mounted on the frame in the standard position.
The L-BRT solves this by providing an L-shaped extension that repositions the lock body so it faces the correct direction to engage with the armature plate on an outward-opening door. Without the correct bracket, the lock either cannot be mounted at all or will be severely misaligned — reducing holding force by up to 70% and causing premature hardware failure.
The L-BRT is available in different sizes to accommodate different door thicknesses and frame profiles. IOT Systems engineers will specify the correct L-BRT size for your specific door during the site survey — this is not something to guess, as the wrong bracket size causes the same misalignment problem as using no bracket at all.

Frequently Asked Questions — Cametron Accessories in Pakistan
What is the difference between the Cametron MGL (Magnetic Lock) and MDBL (Drop Bolt Lock)?
The MGL uses electromagnetic force — a magnet holds the door closed and releases instantly when power is removed (fail-safe). The MDBL uses a physical steel bolt that mechanically locks into the frame — it is significantly stronger and can be configured fail-secure (stays locked when power fails) for server rooms and vaults. Use MGL on general office doors and MDBL on high-security rooms.
What holding force EM lock do I need for my door?
For internal office doors use 280kg. For main entrance lobby doors use 500kg. For high-security or heavy doors use 600kg. The wrong holding force is dangerous — too low and the door can be forced open. IOT Systems engineers will specify the correct holding force for every door during the site survey.
Why do I need a separate bracket for my lock?
Standard EM locks mount directly on the door frame for inward-opening doors. Outward-opening doors require an L-bracket to reposition the lock so it aligns correctly with the door. Using the wrong bracket or no bracket causes severe misalignment and reduces holding force by up to 70%. Always let an engineer specify the bracket — the wrong size causes the same problem.
Is the EPB-33 exit button required by law?
Fire safety regulations in Pakistan and internationally require that any person inside a secured area must be able to exit immediately without needing to authenticate. The EPB-33 is therefore a mandatory component on every access-controlled door — it is not optional and cannot be omitted from any professional installation.
What does the MC-51 door contact switch actually do?
The MC-51 detects whether the door is open or closed and sends that information to the access controller. This enables forced door alarms (someone pushed the door open without authorization), door-open-too-long alerts, and real-time door status on your management dashboard. Without a door contact, your system cannot detect unauthorized door opening.
