[[File:MIWA_EC_lock.jpg|thumb|right|300px|text-top|The [[MIWA EC]] magnetic lock.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;magnetic lock&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is a [[lock]] design that uses magnetism to properly position locking components and prevent opening of the lock. Many magnetic locks use [[cylinder]]s that require components to be positioned at the [[shear line]], others interact directly with the [[bolt]]. Mechanical and [[electronic lock]]s that use a magnetic component to secure a [[door]] strike are not typically classified as magnetic locks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Though patents for magnetic locks stretch back to the 1800s, they were not historically popular due to their low number of [[differs]], expense in manufacturing, and relative difficulty in mass-producing small, powerful magnets. Modern advances in these fields have generated a number of magnetic lock designs, some of which are included in modern high security locks.&lt;br /&gt;

== Vulnerabilities ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike traditional lock designs, most magnetic locks do not offer direct access to the locking components. This gives them defense against a variety of traditional attacks regardless of the design of the lock. For example, [[impressioning]] techniques are not possible with most magnetic locks. [[Decoding]] is the preferred method of attack against most magnetic locks. Magnetic locks may be vulnerable to one or more of the following:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Lockpicking]]&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Decoding]]&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Bypass]]&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Destructive entry]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
