Securitech

All Securitech MP 4900 alarms are wall mounted, not door mounted. In the event that the door is opened and the alarm sounds, the siren will blare within the facility, not to the outside. Alarms or key switch boxes are connected to the locking mechanism via stainless steel armored cable.
Securitech's multi-door alarms allow a facility to monitor the status of their exit doors and have the alarm sound at a central (or staffed) location, especially useful where exit doors are located at an unsupervised location within a large space. To silence and activated door alarm, a key must be inserted into the key switch cylinder located at the door. The door may be relocked manually; however, the alarm will sound until reset by key.
