Decoded: Delayed Egress and Controlled Egress Locking Systems, idighardware.com Webinar
The possibility of elopement or theft often motivates the use of locking systems that deter passage through egress doors, but building, fire and life-safety code requirements must be met. Although a delayed-egress lock is allowed by code to delay egress for 15 seconds, a controlled-egress system can prevent egress in some health-care units indefinitely — until evacuation is necessary.
This webinar will cover these two types of systems and the code requirements that apply to each. Learn when and where to use them and the varying limitations of each of the model codes. Understanding these systems can help to ensure that the correct components are specified and installed, and that the system will be code-compliant. There will be time for Q&A at the end of the webinar.
