Electrically Couplable Locks for Tubular Frame Doors
Our electrically couplable locks for tubular frame doors have been specially developed for use in modern door systems with high security and control requirements. Thanks to their compact design, variable backset dimensions, and reversible latch, they are ideal for installation in single and double-leaf tubular frame doors – both in new buildings and for retrofitting.
The locks can be coupled and uncoupled via an electrical signal – depending on system requirements – enabling flexible control of access authorization. They are tested according to EN14846 and available with panic functions according to EN 179 or EN 1125.
In combination with standard profile cylinders and fittings, as well as integration into access control systems or emergency exit controls, they offer a future-proof solution for administrative, commercial, or public buildings.

Emergency exit devices with lever handle or push plate for doors in escape routes
The EN 179 standard refers to emergency exit devices intended for use in buildings where it is expected that people familiar with the escape route can quickly and safely reach an exit in an emergency. These locking systems are designed to be easily opened in the event of an emergency. They require only a simple hand movement without the use of keys or similar aids. EN 179 specifies requirements for the design and performance of such systems to ensure their reliability and safety.
panic-break-out hardware with horizontal operating bar
DIN EN 1125 refers to panic exit devices with integrated latch that are equipped with a horizontal operating bar. This standard specifies the requirements and test methods for emergency exit devices intended for use in public buildings to ensure a quick and safe exit in case of emergency. The devices must be designed so that they can be easily operated even under panic conditions.
