All electrical access control systems will require a means of egress to activate/deactivate the electronic locking device. A number of options are available from a PIR detector to automatically unlock the door, to a simple 'bell push' button.

Please remember that a fail unlocked locking device fitted to a fire escape route door is generally connected into the access control system via a suitable break glass unit which bypass the system in the event of emergency.

Below are a range of items that can be used in conjunction with access control systems and products, including exit buttons, break glass units, power supplies, door loops and keyswitches.

Power Supply
A suitable power supply must be specified to match the requirements of the access control device, the locking device and ancillary equipment. A single PSU may be used to power multiple units. Please check with Ingersoll Rand Security Technologies Newcastle for details.

Break Glass Units
For use on fire escape routes. Semi flush or surface mounted supplied with appropriate back box.

PIR Detector
Specifically designed to be used as a 'request to exit' device.
Technical Alert : Passive devices should be specified carefully as anything passing the door will cause the lock to operate.

Exit Buttons
Large push button 'request to exit' devices to allow easy exit.

Door Loops
Door loops are required when installing an electrical door lock door side. They permit the connection of power across the door frame into the door. Surface mounted and concealed door loops are available.
