Exit Devices, also known as panic devices, allow doors to remain locked from the outside, while allowing people inside to quickly exit the building at any time without having to unlock the door or turn a lever or knob.  Exit devices feature a bar running horizontally across the door that you push to unlock and open the door in one motion. They are a critical part of the Fire and Life Safety egress system and provide safe and reliable service when properly applied and maintained. Exit devices are often found on utility, service and emergency exit doors.  As inventor of the panic bar, Von Duprin has a long standing history as a leader in quality, durability and security.  Our passion for excellence shows in our wide range of exit devices and outside trim operations.

 

 

Touch Bar	Touch bar exit devices are mounted on the egress side of the door.  They can be mounted for rim, mortise, surface vertical, or concealed vertical applications.  Touch bar exit devices feature an enclosed mechanism case with a push bar area to allow egress.
Cross Bar	The cross bar style of exit device is primarily used in architectural applications.   It is available in both wide and narrow stile, and is ideal for environments that demand a traditional looking device with the durability to withstand rugged applications.
Recessed	These exit devices are recessed in the door.  They maintain a low profile with sloped end caps that deflect objects away from the door and are close to being totally flush with the door when depressed, eliminating pinch points.   Applications include: hospitals, healthcare facilities, universities and other high profile buildings.
Electrified Options	All of Von Duprins exit devices have the flexibility to be electrified in a variety of applications.  Some electronic options include electric latch retraction, alarm kits, and door positioning switches.  These options providing additional feature for high security applications and also allow the exit device and trim to be tied directly into a buildings security system.
