This page is a Stub, meant to be transcluded into Security Devices rather than viewed directly.
Cracking a maglock's case to access the electronics requires a Locksmith + Agility [Physical] (Maglock Rating × 2, 1 Combat Turn) Extended Test Test. Reassembling the case afterwards requires the same test.
Whether or not physical violence (treat it as attempting to destroy a Barrier with Structure and Armor equal to the Maglock's Rating) is beneficial to bypassing a maglock depends on the site's security design. If the lock is designed to fail-safe, smashing it will in fact open whatever it is securing, but will also inform the security system of the breach. If the system is instead designed to fail-secure, destroying the lock will not open whatever it is securing... and it will still inform the security system of the breach.
