Von Duprin 967240 US28 Emergency Lockdown Kit

Von Duprin 967240 US28 Emergency Secure Lockdown Kit offers a reliable solution for enhancing security in high-occupancy areas, such as auditorium-style classrooms. Designed specifically for the Von Duprin 33A QEL 36" exit devices, this kit features a visual indicator in red with the word "LOCKDOWN" against a satin aluminum clear anodized finish, ensuring clear communication during emergencies. In critical situations, occupants can easily engage the lockdown feature by turning the thumb turn or using a cylinder key, which interrupts power to the QEL motor. This action electronically undogs the latchbolt, securing the pull side of the door while simultaneously signaling the access control system. Free egress is maintained from the exit side, allowing occupants to exit safely while restricting access from the outside without a key. The kit includes clear labels directing users on the rotation needed to secure the opening, alongside a visual indicator that provides everyday use functionality with a non-descript window. This modular conversion kit facilitates quick upgrades for existing devices, allowing for scheduled electronic dog/undog or credential access during regular use. The Emergency Secure Lockdown Kit is a crucial addition to any commercial space, meeting fire and life safety codes while ensuring peace of mind.
