Transom Housings are a box section, that houses a Magnetic Lock or pair of Locks, and can be mounted on a Doors Header for Single or Double Doors, or vertically on Single Doors.

By using a Transom Housing, a number of common problems can be overcome.

1. Any form of Electronic Security Lock, would normally be fitted on the Secure Side of the Door or Area you are protecting (commonly known as the Secure Side). Sometimes this is not possible, but by using a Transom Housing, you can install the Lock on the unprotected side of the door with all the cabling concealed.

2. By using a Transom Housing and Maglock, the overall appearance of the Installation can be greatly improved. Outward opening Doors would normally have a Maglock hanging from the Door Header, in some instances this can be a hazard with sharp edges, especially on low doors, using a Transom Housing effectively lowers the Doors Header slightly.
