Emergency Rescue Hardware
Emergency Rescue Hardware
The Original Design from Stanley
All privacy function locksets and most toilet compartment ‘indicator’ bolts offer a means of retracting the latch bolt from the outside – usually via a straightforward tool such as a slotted screw driver. This is a sufficient safeguard in most situations. However, in those instances where there is potential for, say, hospital patients to fall against the inside of doors or for residents of secure units to barricade themselves inside bedrooms then a little more sophistication is called for.
The emergency rescue hardware set is a two part solution offering a quick release method for WC compartment doors and other doors where fast access is required in the event of an emergency. The removable stop feature, in tandem with the double action pivot allows doors to be opened away from the obstacle or barricade facilitating unhindered access through the opening.
