A magnetic lock assembly for a door includes a metal housing containing therein a magnet and a coil selectively energized to lock or unlock the door against an external armature plate. The magnetic lock further includes an audible alarm, a printed circuit board secured to an exterior surface of the metal housing and a cover made from a material that permits electromagnetic radiation to pass therethrough and positioned around the printed circuit board. The printed circuit board includes an electronic controller and a wireless communications interface configured to communicate wirelessly to a remote external system a signal indicating any one or more door conditions. These include propped door, delayed egress, forced door, insufficient bond, and door status indicating an open or closed status of the door.

The invention relates to an actuating handle (17), provided with a preferably electromechanical locking mechanism (8, 8a), having a predetermined breaking point (4) which is between a handle neck (21) and a grip part (1) and is in particular monitored by an electrical switch (3) that preferably also acts as an “opening detector”. During authorised opening of the actuating handle (17), a programmed switch (A1) closes the circuit of the electrical switch (3), the circuit of the physical switch (A2) is then opened, and therefore the grip part (1) can be brought into an opening or tilted position without the alarm being triggered by the switch (3). After the actuating handle has been brought into the closure position, and after the electromechanical locking process (8, 8a), the switch (A1, A2) procedure is executed in a reverse sequence.

The present disclosure provides a smart door lock and a method for controlling the smart door lock. The method may be implemented on a computing apparatus including a processor and a storage device. The method may include obtaining user information and determining whether the user information passes a verification. The method may further include in response to a determination that the user information passes the verification, controlling the smart door lock to perform an unlock operation. The method may further include determining whether the door on which the smart door lock is installed has a preset action within a preset time period and in response to a determination that the door has the preset action within the preset time period, controlling at least one component of the smart door lock to perform at least one operation.

A sliding panel deadbolt lock assembly that is associated with a sliding panel that transitions between an open position and a closed position relative to a stationary panel that is coupled to the sliding panel. A sliding panel lock assembly includes a pin that transitions between an engaged position and a retracted position. A first magnetic field sensing device is positioned at the retracted position of the pin when the pin is in the retracted position to enable the sliding panel to transition from the closed position. The first magnetic field sensing device detects a magnetic field generated by a first magnetic field generating device positioned on the pin. The first magnetic field sensing device positioned at the retracted position of the pin is aligned with the first magnetic field generating device positioned on the pin when the pin is in the retracted position.
