Functional Details

This device uses Electric Latch Retraction to electrically withdraw the latchbolt, enabling momentary or continuous retraction for remote operation, automatic operators, and controlled access.

• Electric latch retraction allows the latch to be retracted electrically.
• Fail safe: power off unlocks the outside lever.
• Hex key dogging holds the pushbar depressed and latch retracted for push/pull operation.
• Free egress at all times from the inside.
