Application
When
unauthorized egress is initiated, SDC Exit
Check® delays egress through the door for 15
seconds. Meanwhile, the person exiting must
wait while personnel or security respond. The
door unlocks after 15 seconds have elapsed,
permitting egress. A signal from the fire/life
safety system will release the lock for uninhibited
egress in an emergency.
Exit Check® applications
include:
• Theft protection for technology,
merchandise and other valuables, such as museum
artifacts.
• The control of pedestrian traffic
in airports and other public facilities for
security and public safety.
• Restricting the
egress of patients for their own safety.

Wandering Patient
Systems
The SDC Exit Check® is compatible with
wandering patient systems, like those used for
protection against infant abduction from hospital
nurseries, and in long term care facilities for
the protection of patients who may be endangered
if they are able to leave their care facility
without supervision.
Access Control
Access controls
may be utilized for authorized egress or access.
Access from the exterior of latching doors
requires an additional means of mechanical
lock release, such as a mechanical key or electric
strike.
Local Approval
All installations must
be approved by the Authority Having Jurisdiction
(AHJ).
