Panic locks for tubular frame doors
Our panic locks for tubular frame doors are specially developed for the requirements of narrow aluminium or steel profiles. Thanks to their compact design, variable backset dimensions and reversible latch, they are optimally suited for installation in single and double-leaf tubular frame doors – both in new buildings and for retrofitting.
With durable mechanics, certified quality according to DIN 18251, and variants from series 18 or 19, our panic locks offer safe and standard-compliant solutions for escape and rescue routes. The locks are designed for use with common profile cylinders and fittings – a free-running cylinder is not required.
Equipped with panic function according to EN 179 or EN 1125 and optionally with top locking or silent latch, they are ideally suited for use in public buildings, commercial properties, as well as administrative and educational sectors.

Standards and safety requirements
Mortise locks meet the highest safety standards and are certified according to DIN EN 12209 for mechanical locks. Variants with panic function additionally comply with the European standards DIN EN 179 (emergency exits) and DIN EN 1125 (panic doors). The VdS approval certifies suitability for burglar-resistant doors according to DIN EN 1627–1630. In addition, numerous models offer fire and smoke protection suitability as well as CE marking for use in the European market.
suitability for fire protection
Approved for use on fire and smoke protection doors
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.
mechanically operated locks and strike plates
EN 12209 is a European standard that deals with mechanical locks and striking plates for doors. This standard defines the requirements for security, functionality, and durability of mechanical locks. It includes test procedures for evaluating the performance of these products in various categories such as durability, corrosion resistance, and resistance to tampering.
VDS
Profile cylinders with this marking are available in VdS version.
RC
The EN 1627 standard is a European standard that defines requirements and classifications for burglar-resistant components such as doors, windows, curtain walls, grilles, and roller shutters. This standard is part of a series of standards, which also includes EN 1628, EN 1629, and EN 1630, covering various aspects of testing these products for their resistance to burglary.Resistance classes (RC = Resistance Class) are a central element of this standard and indicate how well a component withstands a burglary attempt. There are several resistance classes, from RC 1 to RC 6, with each higher class offering better protection. [doc2]
