Dual Sense Bar

The Dual Sense Bar (DSB) is for use on magnetically locked, non-fire-rated doors. Specifically designed to address the most current building and life safety codes, the DSB features two independent switch circuits to release the lock. Simply touching the bar or engaging its mechanical movement will allow free egress. For indoor use only, the DSB can be installed on metal, aluminum or wood doors of all types. Meets "no special tools or knowledge" requirements.
