Von Duprin 36" Guard-X Exit Alarm Lock

A new Series 2670 Exit Alarm Lock from Von Duprin provides secure, alarmed code-compliant protection for emergency exits. Called Guard-X, the new exit alarm lock readily identifies the door on which it is mounted as an emergency exit and secures the opening against unauthorized use. It is ideal for helping reduce theft in restaurants, retail establishments and similar facilities due to unauthorized exit through emergency exit-only doors.

GUARD-X is designed for new and existing construction. It does not allow relatching or resetting the alarm after an unauthorized exit, other than by an authorized person with a key.

The new exit alarm lock provides secure protection. With a large stainless steel deadbolt that is 2" x 1/2" and has a 3/4" throw, the engagement area into the strike is over 1 1/4" square inches. A cast aluminum latch cover guards the exit alarm from attack or vandalism from inside or outside of the door. Six screws are used for mounting the lock to the door. The unit will withstand up to 1600 pounds of static load force. It can be operated from the building exterior by a standard rim cylinder, so an authorized user can easily arm or disarm it to enter the building when required.

A 100-decibel alarm provides a clear, attention-getting warning of an unauthorized exit or attempted exit. A built-in flashing LED shows at a glance that the device is armed. An audible low-battery alert signals the owner to replace the battery when necessary. An optional external power supply allows Guard-X to be hardwired, eliminating the need to change batteries. The unit's battery then functions as a backup power to operate the alarm if power fails or is tampered with.

The Guard-X complies with the NFPA 101® Life Safety Code. It is UL305 Panic Exit Hardware certified for use on Emergency Exit applications, and it meets ANSI A156.3 Grade 1 Panic Hardware requirements.

Installation takes just a few minutes with an easy-to-use location adhesive back template. The product's non-handed design means the installer can mount GUARD-X for either hand by just removing and reversing the "Emergency Exit-Alarm Will Sound" sign built into the device. The standard warning sign includes the same Braille message.

Please note: This is not an exit device or panic bar. It's an exit lock.
