Crash bar with code lock for fire exit door

[Guest GraemeOg]

I need to fit an opening mechanism to our village hall fire door. There is currently a crash bar (mechanical) and I wish to have a version which allows the door to be opened from the inside by the crash bar BUT opended externally by an electric lock activated by a coded key pad. I have the coded key pad and I just need to crash bar and lock

Hi Graeme

Usually, the crash/push bars and the code locks have to be of the same brand. We offer bars with matching locks

Eg Exidor push bar range with matching access devices

You can't use an electromechanical lock on an exit route where the release of the keep is required for exit and electromagnetic locks are not normally allowed on doors from places of assembly (such as your hall) where panic proof (push bar) exit is required.

You need to buy a panic bolt with compatible outside access device - if you prefer code access to keys then Briton Panic Furniture has a coded version:
