LOX AMZB4-LP L & Z Bracket Kit – Single Electromagnetic Lock Mounting for Inward-Opening Doors
Overview
The LOX AMZB4-LP is a professional-grade L & Z bracket kit engineered for mounting single electromagnetic locks on inward-opening (swing-in) doors. Designed specifically for the LOX EM3500, EM3500M, and EM5700 maglock series, this kit delivers precise armature alignment, a clean architectural finish, and compliance with fire-rated door assemblies — making it the go-to choice for Australian security installers and facility managers.
Description
When a door swings inward, a standard L bracket simply won't do the job. The AMZB4-LP solves this with its combined L and Z plate design, allowing the magnet to sit on the door frame while the armature plate remains correctly positioned on the door leaf. The result is full holding force, a flush finish, and a reliable installation that stands up to daily use in commercial and government environments.
Constructed from high-grade anodised aluminium, the bracket resists corrosion in humid Australian conditions and blends seamlessly with modern door hardware. Multiple adjustment slots accommodate varying door and frame thicknesses, reducing installation time and eliminating the need for custom fabrication.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a standard L bracket and this L & Z kit?
A standard L bracket is designed for outward-opening doors. The L & Z kit is required for inward-opening doors — it allows the armature plate to remain on the door leaf while the magnet is fixed to the frame, maintaining correct alignment and full holding force.
Will this bracket work with other brands of maglocks?
The AMZB4-LP is purpose-built for the LOX EM3500 and EM5700 series. It may physically fit other 280 kg (600 lb) maglocks with similar mounting hole patterns, but we recommend pairing it with LOX locks for guaranteed compatibility and performance.
Is this bracket suitable for fire-rated doors?
Yes. The AMZB4-LP is approved for use on fire-rated door assemblies, making it compliant for use in buildings where fire door integrity must be maintained.
Do I need any special tools to install this bracket?
Standard installation tools are sufficient. The adjustable slots reduce the need for custom drilling, and the concealed fixings provide a clean finish once installed. Always refer to the LOX installation guide for your specific lock model.
