mag lock on automatic sliders

Recommended Posts

I work for a major grocery chain and they want to convert some entrances that have aytomatic sliders to emergency exit only status. I would like to have a 15 second delayed egress at the door with an alarm. I got a quote from the door mfg to install a solenoid to prevent the doors from sliding and they will just breakaway in an emergency. Does anyone have any advice on this? Thanks in advance.

Carriage lock is the way to go. Use a mag lock as a last resort.

 

I have done some mental institutions with slider man traps. We did carriage locks and mag locks. PITA!
