Friday September 22, 5:00 am ET

The Systems Will be Launched at the ASIS International 2006 Exhibition in

YAHUD, Israel, September 22/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Magal Security Systems,
Ltd. (NASDAQ GM: MAGS; TASE:MAGS), today announced that its wholly owned
Canadian based subsidiary Senstar-Stellar Corporation (SSC) has released two new
upgraded advanced technology perimeter security systems. First commercial
shipments of both systems are expected before the end of the year.

OmniTrax(TM) is the fifth generation of buried cable detection sensor from SSC,
cementing its position as world leader in covert buried cable technology. Major
new features of this product include a ranging function that locates targets
with an accuracy of one meter, user defined detection zone assignment, sensor
cables doubled in length allowing one processor to detect intruders over as much
as 800 meters (1/2 mile) of perimeter, and fully integrated power and data
distribution over the sensor cables.

XField(TM) is the third generation of electrostatic field sensor taking
advantage of new digital signal processing technology, a direct to digital
design and years of performance experience with previous generations. This
completely re-engineered product continues to provide the tall and narrow
volumetric detection field that is required by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission
of many countries, as well as meeting the unique needs of a wide range of other
applications.

Izhar Dekel, Magal's CEO, said: "We are pleased to see the fruit of several
years of R&D efforts entering the market in the form of these world leading
advanced technology systems. This is another example of Magal's continuing
commitment to provide the security industry with the broadest range of leading
edge solutions for almost any existing threat."
