Heavy Duty Access Control

When it comes to access control, choosing the right locking hardware is more than just a technical decision—it’s a matter of safety, compliance, and long-term reliability. Installing light-duty hardware in a public facility is a recipe for failure, risk, and liability.

Public environments demand heavy-duty hardware that is supported by the correct sensor configuration, including:

• Door position sensor – detects door props or forced entry attempts
• Request-to-exit sensor – ensures safe egress, but should never unlock the door

Every configuration should be designed to operate in a fail secure . That means even in adverse conditions, the system continues to prioritize security while maintaining safe exit paths for building occupants.

The right design doesn’t just protect the facility—it also supports compliance requirements, strengthens trust, and reinforces a culture of safety.
