Secure emergency exits in seconds

October 2017 Products & Solutions, Fire & Safety

The SMART+SHIELD offers a simple cost-effective solution to the misuse of emergency exit doors. Adopting the universally recognised ‘no entry’ sign, the SMART+SHIELD is a visually effective deterrent supported by an acoustic security alarm of 95 dBs.

The SMART+SHIELD has been designed specifically to secure emergency exit doors, is quick and easy to install and completely self-contained.

The range consists of four models for application with either door frames, panic bars, push bars or multipoint locking systems. Whilst most of the features are identical for each of these applications, the SMART+SHIELD for panic bars and push bars have an integrated pre-alarm. Ultimately, in the event of an emergency, means of escape can also be obtained by exiting via the emergency exit door.

Standard model: Designed to monitor the use of emergency exits and windows, the SMART+SHIELD standard model can be installed flush with, or onto the door frame itself.

Push bars: If lightly pressed, the SMART+SHIELD for the push bars triggers a pre-alarm which is silenced upon release. If the push bar is pressed fully, the main alarm resounds.

Panic bars: If lightly pressed, the SMART+SHIELD for panic bars will trigger a pre-alarm which is silenced upon release. If the panic bar is fully pressed, the main alarm resounds, the pins of the upper plate break and the trigger angle falls downwards.

Multipoint locks: The SMART+SHIELD for multipoint locks secure a door with a vertical panic bolt, creating a strong visual link with the door hardware.
