Von Duprin 967246 US28 Emergency Lockdown Kit

Von Duprin 967246 US28 Emergency Secure Lockdown Kit enhances safety in high-occupancy environments such as classrooms and auditoriums. Designed specifically for the Von Duprin 99 QEL 36" exit devices, this kit features a visual indicator with a striking red "LOCKDOWN" text, ensuring clear communication during emergencies. The satin aluminum clear anodized finish provides a professional appearance while ensuring durability. In the event of a lockdown, authorized users can easily activate the system by turning the thumb turn or using a cylinder key. This action interrupts power to the QEL motor, extending the latchbolt to secure the door's pull side while simultaneously signaling the access control system. Importantly, free egress is maintained from the exit side, allowing for safe exit without hindrance. The kit includes clear directional labels for operation and is field reversible, accommodating various installation needs. It also supports scheduled electronic dog/undog access for everyday use and requires key override for entry during lockdown mode. This innovative solution aligns with fire and life safety codes, providing peace of mind and security for occupants. The modular design allows for easy upgrades to existing devices, making it a practical addition to any commercial setting.
