You could yes or there is usually a spacer in the fixing kit

[Driller]

Thanks James.  For the spacer do you mean the magnet fixed into a plate which is longer/wider than the magnet, allowing you to fix through it around the edges?  Edit, just found this:

Why would you want a surface magent on a new ( I assume) steel door ?

[Driller]

Well the purpose of the maglock is for easy staff entry and exit.  Your question suggests I've made some sort of error though.  Maybe I should have specified an integrated system at purchase?

[MrHappy]

I would have purchased a door with locking system built into it ?

 

Steel door sets are normally a fire doors, or is you premises nr the local crack den ?

Is a maglock secure enough for your steel door?

I should come here more often!

 

There is a built in mortice lock system with shoot bolts all around plus dog bolts.  This will be used to secure the door after closing time.  I thought it would be nice to have a mag lock during opening hours to allow staff to come and go with just a blip on a badge reader.

If you can choose a time of day when the sun isn't sun glaring of your shiny fall pipes....

 

Take pic of the door you wish to secure, (both sides)

 

I'm happy to offer expert advice find some thing else to take the piss out of...
