The ECL-230D-PH exit control lock manages secondary exits on commercial buildings where you need to prevent unauthorized egress while maintaining life safety compliance. Detex builds this unit with a single-point deadbolt and 100-decibel alarm to stop employee theft and unauthorized access through rear exits, loading docks, and service doors. The device arms automatically when you lock the deadbolt and disarms when unlocked.
This panic hardware combines attack resistance with straightforward operation. The steel construction withstands over 2200 pounds of outside pull force. The photo-luminescent sign absorbs ambient light and glows in darkness for visibility during power outages. Non-handed design accepts standard rim cylinders from 5-pin through 7-pin configurations.
