New Delayed Egress electromagnetic lock features up to 1200 lbs of holding force
Pittsburgh, Pa. (July 14, 2011) – BEA’s new Delayed Egress Maglock offers a code compliant, all-in-one locking system for single outward swinging perimeter doors. The electromagnetic lock provides security for applications requiring loss prevention, life safety and traffic control.

The new Delayed Egress Maglock from BEA.
The Delayed Egress Maglock’s built-in sensor detects when pressure is applied to a door, featuring up to 1200 lbs of holding force. The system will sound an alarm and unlock after a predetermined period of pressure on the door, with a short nuisance delay to eliminate accidental triggering.
The cost-effective sensor is easy to install and field selectable to meet a variety of building codes. It includes a key switch for reset and override, and an external sounder alarm. The system uses dry contact relay switching for local and/ or remote alarm monitoring. A built-in security condition sensor and highly visible red/ green light panel indicates when the door is unlocked or closed and bonded.
