The ECL-230D is a battery-powered alarmed exit control lock designed for secondary exits where you need to prevent unauthorized egress while maintaining emergency escape capability. This steel deadbolt device mounts on doors in retail, warehouse, and commercial facilities to reduce theft and unauthorized access. Detex builds this panic hardware to provide 100 decibel alarm notification when the exit is used, helping facility managers control employee and customer movement through secondary doors.
The single-point deadbolt throws 1 inch and accepts standard 5-pin through 7-pin interchangeable core rim cylinders. Attack-resistant construction withstands over 2200 pounds of outside pull force. The steel plate includes a photo-luminescent sign that absorbs ambient light and glows in low-light conditions. Non-handed design simplifies installation and inventory management.
