Fire doors and locks

[Guest JohnT]

I live in a block of flats which has 3 main entrances at the front of the building. There are 2 corridors on the ground floor which lead to reception areas and I live at the end of one of these corridors. At either end of the corridor, there are fire doors and to change the flow of walking traffic late at night I am in discussions with the managing agent of my block to see if any solution can be found.

Would it be possible to fix keypads with emergency exit latches a bit like the below in that sort of arrangement?

Both fire doors lead to the reception areas where the external exits are located.

Thanks in advance!

As long as the code isn't required in the direction of escape there would be no automatic issue with doing that.
