Schlage Electronics M490G Electronic Gate Lock

Product Description

The SCHLAGE ELECTRONICS M490G is an electronic gate lock designed for access control applications in residential, multi-family, commercial, and institutional settings. This unit provides electrically controlled locking and unlocking of gate assemblies, making it a practical choice for perimeter security installations where remote or automated access management is required. Weighing 21.4 pounds and measuring 14.5 inches in length, 12 inches in width, and 4.3 inches in height, the M490G is a substantial, full-featured gate lock built for demanding field conditions. Installation is typically handled by licensed access control technicians or licensed electricians familiar with low-voltage door hardware.

The M490G is suited for gate applications across a range of building types, including multi-family residential complexes, commercial facilities, and institutional campuses where controlled pedestrian or vehicle gate access is needed. Its size and weight class suggest compatibility with heavy-duty gate frames and assemblies rather than lightweight residential fence applications. This lock is sold as an individual unit and is appropriate for new installations as well as retrofit projects where an existing gate lock is being replaced with an electronically controlled solution.

Installation Notes

Installation of the M490G should be performed by a licensed electrician or a qualified access control technician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements and local building codes. Disconnect all power to the access control system and any connected hardware before beginning installation or service. Verify gate frame construction and mounting point load ratings are adequate for the weight and actuation forces of this unit before final mounting. Do not energize the lock until all wiring connections have been inspected and the gate assembly has been confirmed structurally sound.
