Classroom Door Lockdown Magnet

The FindTape Door Lockdown Magnet is a flexible white strip that covers the strike plate on a steel door frame so a locked door still opens and closes normally. When a lockdown is called, staff remove the magnet and the door latches shut immediately without a key or a trip into the hallway. Each pack contains ten magnets for multiple doors.

Steel Frame Only Limitation

These magnets work exclusively on steel door frames and must not be installed on fire-rated doors or designated emergency exits. The adhesive-backed strip requires a ferromagnetic surface to hold securely, so aluminium, wood or non-metallic jambs will not work. Buyers who need a solution for non-steel frames or fire-rated openings cannot use this product.

30 Mil Thickness Fit

Each magnet measures 0.030 inches thick by 2 inches by 8 inches to fit a standard strike plate. The slim profile keeps the latch from catching while the magnet is in place, yet allows instant engagement once removed. If the strike plate or frame geometry differs from the standard dimensions, the magnet may not cover the latch correctly.

Questions about this item

How many magnets are included in the 10-pack and what thickness should I expect?

The pack contains 10 white magnets, each 30 mils thick including the carrier and adhesive, sized to cover a standard strike plate on a steel door frame.

Will the magnet hold the latch back on a typical classroom steel frame so the locked door still opens freely?

Yes, the flexible 0.030-inch strip adheres to the metal jamb, covering the strike plate so the latch cannot catch while the lock remains set, allowing normal entry and exit until the magnet is removed.

Is this magnet compatible with any door frame material or only specific ones?

It is designed for steel door frames only and must not be used on fire-rated doors or emergency exits, as the magnetic hold relies on a ferromagnetic surface to secure the strike plate.
