DETEX V40 SERIES Meets South African requirements for “operation initiated by body weight.” Pressure against the surface mounted aesthetically pleasing heavy-duty panic latch opens the door, setting off a loud alarm on most models, (alarm is reset by using the key). The stainless steel deadlocking latch will allow the door to
re-lock once it closes, to prevent unauthorised entry. All V40 series bars can withstand over 600 kg of pull pressure from outside!

DETEX V40 series options include stand-alone models with battery powered alarm, mains powered alarm with battery-backup, micro-switches for remote monitoring to a control room or alarm system, rugged weatherised versions for outdoor use, delayed exit models with full monitoring and bypass facilities, and one with an electrically retractable latch – for access control.

The DETEX products listed below relate to using DETEX products on doors that are too narrow to take the DETEX V40 series.

The explanatory leaflet on the use of panic bars with vertical rods for the 'fixed' leaf of double doors – will assist you to use a DETEX product on the moving (first-opening) leaf. You can download/view it here.

All DETEX panic and exit devices can be supplied keyed-alike (all with same key bypass), master-keyed (different keys for each and a master key to fit all) - with standard quality or with high security cylinders.

DETEX ECL-600 is a heavy-duty, fire-rated, stand-alone, surface mounted escape lock with a large red exit paddle. Pushing the paddle withdraws the latch-bolt and the deadbolt simultaneously, sounding a loud 100 dB alarm. After escape, the door re-locks automatically when closed. The alarm can only be reset by means of the by-pass key, which also re-locks the deadbolt. No wiring or external electronics are required with battery-only 9-volt models. Options: Mains power with battery backup, remote monitoring, high security key for alarm.
