Consisting of an electromagnet and an armature plate, these locks provide a perfect alternative to traditional door locks. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Is your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.starlinkindia.com\/\"><em><strong>Time Attendance System<\/strong><\/em><\/a> company planning to install a Biometric Attendance System? If it is so, the EM locks will work best with biometric attendance systems.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before installing a biometric attendance system and an electronic lock on doors, there are a few things that you must consider. Read on.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Before installing EM locks, you should take the following 5 precautions:<\/b><\/h2>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>\n<h3><b>Recognize &amp; Select The Right Lock<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are multiple types, sizes, and shapes of EM locks available in the market. Thus, it becomes crucial to choose the right lock for your doors. At the same time, each <\/span><em><b>Biometric<\/b> <b>Attendance<\/b> <b>Machine<\/b><\/em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and door has its swinging patterns, thus depending on the size and shape of your door, you&#8217;ll require different brackets.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Furthermore, some doors do not require brackets, while others do. Some doors require L-shaped brackets, while others require U-shaped brackets.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><b>Get The Right Tools<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After gathering the necessary information and selecting the appropriate lock, the next most essential consideration is finding the appropriate tools. The EM lock and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.starlinkindia.com\/\"><strong>biometric system for attendance<\/strong><\/a> cannot be readily set up and installed. Arranging the right tools before installing EM locks is equally important.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You won&#8217;t have to run back and forth looking for tools throughout installation if you have everything beforehand. Screws, drills, bolts, adhesive sheets, striking plates, and other tools are commonly used for EM lock installation.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><b>Ensure Proper Measurement<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you&#8217;re up to installing an EM lock, it is important to ensure proper measurement. Fixing the brackets and other things based on guesses will only lead you to a misplaced installation. Even a one-mm gap can cause improper installation, so ensure proper measurement. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Also read:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.starlinkindia.com\/blog\/8-reasons-why-your-office-should-install-a-door-access-control-system\/\">Why the Offices Should Install A Door Access Control System<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><b>Make a Wiring Plan Ahead of Time<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure the wiring is done before installing the EM lock. Others may do it the opposite way around, first installing the lock and then wiring. The latter technique devolves swiftly into confusion. It is best to finish the wiring before installing the EM lock.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><b>Test The Lock<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is one of the most critical precautions, but businesses frequently overlook it and pay the repercussions afterwards. You must first test the lock. Check to see whether it is operating properly; simply open and close it once, to check that it is operationally smooth. It won&#8217;t take long, so don&#8217;t put off taking this vital precaution.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep the above precautions in mind before deploying a <\/span><em><b>Biometric Attendance System<\/b><\/em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> with an <\/span><b>EM lock<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. By doing so, you may avoid the needless problems that other businesses encounter post-installation. So, be prudent, take all of these precautions, and install your EM lock right now.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><a class=\"maxbutton-1 maxbutton maxbutton-enquire-now\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.starlinkindia.com\/contact-us\/\"><span class='mb-text'>Enquire Now<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Also read:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.starlinkindia.com\/blog\/5-problems-associated-with-your-employees-attendance\/\">5 Proble\u00adms Associated With Your Employees\u2019 Attenda\u00adnce<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Checkout our other products:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.starlinkindia.com\/access-control-system\/\"><span data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;access control system&quot;}\" data-sheets-userformat=\"{&quot;2&quot;:513,&quot;3&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:0},&quot;12&quot;:0}\">Access control system<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.starlinkindia.com\/products\/\">Biometric devices<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.starlinkindia.com\/Softwares\/leave-management-software\/\">Leave management system<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.starlinkindia.com\/Softwares\/visitor-management-software\/\">Visitor management system<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Electromagnetic locks, commonly known as EM locks or maglocks, offer keyless locking systems.
