The alarm is both visual and acoustic and can communicate with a building management system where necessary. Ensuring a clear and guided route out of the building.

  • Authorised

    Authorised activation

    A door can be set so an authorised person using the key switch can enter or exit within a time frame, giving flexibility for the door use. Three are available: Short term, Long term & Permanent unlocking

  • Automated Locking

    Automatic Locking

    The system will automatically lock the door after an authorised exit or entry, where relocking is not possible an alarm will sound. Ensuring the door security and functionality is maintained quickly.

  • Time Limiting

  • Convenient

    Convenient and safe

    SafeRoute was developed with ease of planning and commissioning in mind. The modular design of the hardware allows for easy retrofitting or expansion of the SafeRoute system. Installation is via the DCW cable and can be easily installed and commissioned by trained installers.

  • Network Controlled

    Network management

    All escape route doors can be networked over long distances. They can be centrally monitored and controlled using specific dormakaba management software or systems. SafeRoute also enables integration into existing building management systems.

  • Saferoute Operating Theater

    Airlock Management: Ensuring safety in Healthcare

    A lock area needs to be installed between two operating room doors. Not only does it need to secure the escape route but it needs a time delay between opening the next door, to ensure full decontamination can be performed. The SafeRoute system can be commissioned in such a way that this can be easily installed and maintained.

  • Saferoute Airport

    Multidoor Control: Managed flow through an Airport

    A networked system of up to 4 doors can be controlled as a continual escape route as well as individually operable where necessary. Using the SafeRoute system, you will achieve greater cost effectiveness, by using the multi door control centre to ensure that the solutions can maintain compliance on a multi and singular basis.

  • Safereoute Nursary

    Time Control: Safeguarding in Pre-school settings

    An escape route that needs to have a time control to ensure that the door can be accessed free flowing at certain times, to ensure a smooth drop off and pick up but it remains secure outside of this time. The SafeRoute system can achieve this easily and effectively ensuring the compliance and safety of all.

  • Saferoute Shop

    Delayed Egress: Protection against misuse in the Retail environment

    A single door with low foot traffic, that requires an escape route, but also needs to ensure that it is protected from misuse in everyday life. A Time delay of 8-15 seconds can be set, to alert security personnel to an un-authorized exit. This is a simple option using the SafeRoute system, to securely protect the door whilst maintaining its functionality.
