Hi, I have a problem with a few doors with magnetic locks. When you press the exit button you have to bump the door to get it open. This also happens with the fob when entering the building.
I've checked the lock output on the control card and it drops to 0v, so no residual voltage. I've even disconnected the magnet and the strike plate is still held.
It's a GDX5 system so I called them and they said the only thing to do is put some tape on the magnet.
Any ideas? The only thing I can come up with is the strike plate is becoming magnetised, but I don't know how to solve this.
The doors have two magnets. A 1200 and a 600. It is only happening with the 1200.
Many thanks for any help.
